Cancer Monthly Horoscope November 2016

Cancer (Born June 22 to July 1) and Cancer Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Cancer:

November 2016 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until November 21st:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively.

This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation.

From November 21st forward:

The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now.

It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until November 12th: 

Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.

From November 12th forward: 

Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until November 12th: 

Mercury continues to transit your solar fifth house. Increased communication with children, romantic partners, and people who share the same hobbies as you can occur now. Certainly, you are thinking about these people and about love and romance, child rearing, and/or creative pursuits more than usual. Mental exercises and competitions can be particularly enjoyable now. You express yourself with warmth and creativity, and you have an appreciative "audience" for your ideas now.

From November 12th forward: 

Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.

Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.

You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until November 9th:

Mars continues to move through your solar seventh house. During this period, strife is possible in your close personal relationships, as a significant other is now mirroring some of your own issues with assertiveness and anger. Attracting aggression in others during this cycle is a clue that there are unresolved issues within that need tending. You might actually seek some form of conflict, whether intentionally or not, in order to deal with these issues. There can be competitiveness in your life now. Any troublesome issues that have been dormant in a relationship are likely to surface, and can now be handled straightforwardly.

From November 9th forward: 

Mars energizes your solar eighth house now. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Overview Horoscope:

November can be an especially expressive, creative month for you, dear Cancer, but you're also in a strong position for making lifestyle changes, improving your habits, and finding more meaning and happiness in your work.

There is a happy theme that connects your home and family sector with your work and health sector in positive ways, running until the 12th. There can be positive developments on the domestic front -- it's an excellent time for connecting with family and doing something productive together. You may be enjoying your work and home life more than usual, and combining it in satisfying ways, such as by working from home or putting better systems in place that improve your ability to do so. You'll find family members more cooperative, in general.

Mars in your partnership and then intimacy sectors this month can certainly heat up and animate your closest relationships. While there can be some difficulties with an overbearing or controlling partner to deal with for some of you, this is a good time to make changes and put some of the building tension to rest. This period favors confronting problems head-on with direct and assertive Mars involved. From the 9th forward, you're in a particularly good position to observe and strategize your next moves. With Uranus in Aries a long-term guest in your career and reputation sector, you've been doing a lot of feeling things out in the career department, not always acting deliberately or with forethought. Mars' special relationship (mutual reception) with Uranus and its placement in your perceptive and strategic solar eighth house can help you to make considered plans and moves.

Your intimate life is guaranteed to heat up this month, and this will continue well into December. Venus moves into your partnership zone on the 12th, and this certainly helps to smooth over your interactions. You'll find much to enjoy about your relationships. It's a particularly smooth move as Venus serves to replace Mars here, entering this sector only a few days after Mars has left it. However, with intense Pluto a long-term guest in your partnership sector, there is always something serious or heavy to deal with, even when happier, lighter planets are transiting this area of your chart. This is likely to occur around the 24-25 when problem areas are magnified. If you've been dealing with control issues in a relationship, they're liable to surface then. You have a lot of work to do in the months ahead along these lines, so don't put pressure on yourself to resolve everything immediately, but certainly take some steps towards that goal.

Around the Full Moon on the 14th, there may be some drama in your social life, but once the dust has settled, you'll be in an "eyes wide open" state that allows for better decision-making. This is a time for confronting feelings and problems.

Work and the practical side of life take on increasing importance as November advances, although they're active areas all month. This a brilliant time for list making, getting organized, and taking care of business. The focus should be on improving your daily life and habits, and you'll have plenty of opportunities and motivation to do so. You may be tempted to take on a little too much, however, after the New Moon on the 29th, but if you can tame this tendency, you'll be in great shape for getting your life into better working order.

Cancer (Born July 2 to 12)
AND Cancer Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Cancer:

November 2016 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

All month:

The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!

You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.

This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until November 20th:

Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You're most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.

From November 20th forward:

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.

Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.
