Overview for this Month: Cancer (All)
You have a lovely showing in your romance and creativity sector this month, dear Cancer, making November a fabulous time for enjoying yourself and exploring your creativity. It helps that you're making pleasing impressions on others on many different levels as planets highlight your natural charm and encourage self-expression. The Full Moon on the 3-4 is good for recognizing your need for friends and camaraderie, coming into touch with your feelings for someone, and invites or social events.
While you're in good shape for entertainment, love, creativity, and hobbies in some way all month, new beginnings along these lines are most appropriate after the New Moon on the 18th. This lunation brings new energy and a take-charge attitude to your creative world, and in the week following it, you may be pushing forward a hobby, romance, or creative pursuit. This can be a brand new beginning or a reboot or fresh start. Look for ways to express and enjoy yourself more fully.
Standout days for love, romance, games, and self-expression include the 12th, 15-16, and 21st. You're in great shape for personal attractiveness, and if you want to get closer to someone, this can be a time of greater understanding, forgiveness, and others giving you the benefit of the doubt. Your confidence increases and you could be feeling especially generous, with your heart, time, happiness, or money. It’s the right time to inject some extra oomph, romance, affection, or fun into a relationship or your life in general. Work matters also improve, and while the month's focus on fun is real, you're also motivated to take care of business -- a theme that grows as the month advances. There may be financial or work-related travel. November is good for studies, legal matters, and public relations or promotional activities.
Your special kind of gentleness is more appealing to others than usual in November, and you're tuned right into your feelings. You find it easier to enjoy yourself when you let go of negative thoughts or unreasonable expectations. You are expressing yourself in ways that are especially relatable to others. Feelings intensify, or a commitment becomes more likely to a project or relationship around the 21st. A bond or project can fill you with a stronger sense of purpose.
All month, you have Mars in your family and home sector -- a transit that can work on different levels. One way it often plays out involves extra energy and motivation for home projects and family activities. You invest a lot of your energy in your personal life. Another expression of Mars in this area of your solar chart involves difficulties asserting your desires or expressing anger, which leads to choppiness and frustrated expression or the tendency to hold things in and let them fester! While it's not an ideal time for a direct approach to getting what you want since confidence isn't entirely there, it's best to avoid internalizing anger too much. Another way Mars in the fourth house works involves working in or on the home, and this can be an excellent time for making progress. If there have been difficulties with family, problems tend to come up to the surface now - they're unavoidable at this point, which can be hectic and possibly inconvenient, but ultimately refreshing.
Mercury and the Sun move into your work and health sector on the 5th and 22nd, respectively, and this turns your attention to your daily routines, work, and personal well-being. You're in good shape for getting your life and body into shape! The desire to step up or begin health and fitness programs is strong, and you're putting more heart, intelligence, and pride in your work and daily routines.
You'll also benefit from a Jupiter-Neptune trine aspect that comes into influence now and stays with you up until August 2018. You enjoy a sense of being re-energized on spiritual levels and a building of faith in your future. Travel, educational, or publishing matters begin to move forward now. Matters of the heart can be magical. There can be beautiful connections made through travel or educational endeavors or shared adventures. A lover, child, or friend can open your mind or heart to new experiences. Creatively speaking, you are well-received, and your audience is likely to expand. Your sense of drama expands now, as well.
Cancer (Born June 22 to July 1) and Cancer Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Cancer:November 2017 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness Until November 22nd: 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 22nd 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 the 7th: Venus continues to transit your solar fourth house now. Domestic relationships and the home environment tend to be especially harmonious and peaceful during this cycle. You may have a desire to decorate your home with better quality items or more attention to aesthetics. An inner sense of peace and security tends to dominate now, or the desire for peace motivates you now. Your affections are strong but you don't wear your heart on your sleeve just now, preferring quiet moments with loved ones. From the 7th forward: Venus warms your solar fifth house. This is an expressive period for the goddess of love! It's natural for you to turn on the charm without even lifting a finger. You are especially attracted to aesthetic forms of recreation. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be laced with a touch of drama. That shouldn't be a problem--in fact, you kind of like it that way for the time being. More loving and appreciative relationships with your children may also figure now. Your powers of attraction skyrocket during this cycle. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama! Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation Until November 5th: 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 5th 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 All month: Mars continues to activate your solar fourth house. More energy and enthusiasm is brought to your home life, but there can also be a tendency to stir up trouble if you are not careful to channel any excess energy into constructive and productive pursuits around the home. You desire to take the lead, but you should do so in a respectful way so as not to get anyone's goat.

Cancer (Born July 2 to 12)

November 2017 |
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 15th:
Venus continues to transit your solar fourth house now. Domestic relationships and the home environment tend to be especially harmonious and peaceful during this cycle. You may have a desire to decorate your home with better quality items or more attention to aesthetics.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 7th:
Mars continues to activate and energize your solar third house now. You may be especially busy running errands and tending to daily activities during this cycle. It's a strong time for putting your energy into intellectual projects or studies. You tend to communicate in a more direct manner now, and you might want to be careful that you don't come across as insensitive or abrasive. You may find it too easy to become impatient with others if they seem to be taking up too much of your time, such as with other drivers or with people who are not speaking as directly as you are. Channel your extra energy into mental tasks so that this transit can be highly stimulating (instead of stressful).
From the 7th forward:
Mars activates and energizes your solar fourth house. You have more energy at your disposal for domestic projects or activities. Because your actions are governed by your instincts during this period, you may be especially defensive and protective. You may work hard at making yourself feel more secure, and you may be called upon to take charge on the home and family front. You may have more energy to invest in homemaking, house repairs, redecorating, or family activities. In fact, if you are feeling very restless, moody, or defensive during this period, it would be a good idea to do any of these things! You may have an increased desire to rule the roost, and if this transit stimulates conflict or disputes, it is likely to be family-related--you may have arguments with them, about them, or on their behalf. You may also encounter opposition from career-related matters or people. You may get worked up about old angers or regarding emotional issues from the past that are resurfacing now.

It’s the right time to inject some extra oomph, romance, affection, or fun into a relationship or your life in general. Work matters also improve, and while the month's focus on fun is real, you're also motivated to take care of business -- a theme that grows as the month advances. There may be financial or work-related travel. November is good for studies, legal matters, and public relations or promotional activities.
Your special kind of gentleness is more appealing to others than usual in November, and you're tuned right into your feelings. You find it easier to enjoy yourself when you let go of negative thoughts or unreasonable expectations. You are expressing yourself in ways that are especially relatable to others. Feelings intensify, or a commitment becomes more likely to a project or relationship around the 21st. A bond or project can fill you with a stronger sense of purpose.
All month, you have Mars in your family and home sector -- a transit that can work on different levels. One way it often plays out involves extra energy and motivation for home projects and family activities. You invest a lot of your energy in your personal life. Another expression of Mars in this area of your solar chart involves difficulties asserting your desires or expressing anger, which leads to choppiness and frustrated expression or the tendency to hold things in and let them fester! While it's not an ideal time for a direct approach to getting what you want since confidence isn't entirely there, it's best to avoid internalizing anger too much. Another way Mars in the fourth house works involves working in or on the home, and this can be an excellent time for making progress. If there have been difficulties with family, problems tend to come up to the surface now - they're unavoidable at this point, which can be hectic and possibly inconvenient, but ultimately refreshing.
Mercury and the Sun move into your work and health sector on the 5th and 22nd, respectively, and this turns your attention to your daily routines, work, and personal well-being. You're in good shape for getting your life and body into shape! The desire to step up or begin health and fitness programs is strong, and you're putting more heart, intelligence, and pride in your work and daily routines.
You'll also benefit from a Jupiter-Neptune trine aspect that comes into influence now and stays with you up until August 2018. You enjoy a sense of being re-energized on spiritual levels and a building of faith in your future. Travel, educational, or publishing matters begin to move forward now. Matters of the heart can be magical. There can be beautiful connections made through travel or educational endeavors or shared adventures. A lover, child, or friend can open your mind or heart to new experiences. Creatively speaking, you are well-received, and your audience is likely to expand. Your sense of drama expands now, as well.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from a previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t suddenly change as the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Lunar Cycles section reveal lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts, and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
