Cancer Monthly Horoscope November 2018

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

November 2018 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

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, Pleasure

Venus is retrograde from October 5th to November 16th Venus retrograde in general: As the planet of love and values, Venus retrograde periods are periods during which we re-assess what--and who--we value. It is a period that most astrologers consider inopportune for getting married or starting a new relationship. Major financial undertakings are not advised during this period as well. Venus retrograde cycles are good times for creating budgets and financial plans, and for re-thinking our personal relationships. Old friends and lovers may re-appear, perhaps complicating current relationships. We are called upon to deal with relationship issues from the past. Events occur that seem fated or predestined. It can be a real challenge getting close to a lover during this period of time. Unorthodox, experimental, and non-intimate relationships may be favored. Relationships that have been especially challenging may come to an end during this cycle. However, strong relationships will survive it, even if there are a few bumps and bruises along the way. For singles, this is a good time for "eyes wide open" or experimental dating. It is not a time when people recognize the need for another person to complete them, or some people may be questioning whether they are with partners who actually fulfill them. This period is good for re-evaluating our relationship needs; but, again, major love decisions are best saved for after the cycle ends.This Venus Retrograde cycle occurs for the most part in your fourth house of home and family. Relations with your family may be a little strained. You might want to wait until Venus is  direct before you express your frustrations with family members! What you say now may be costly. Furthermore, if you take the time to think about things, your approach to dealing with these issues later (after the retrograde) is likely to be much more productive. The desire or need for warm relations with family members, or for support and a feeling of security, is especially strong but the path to satisfaction may be hard to find just now. This is a great time to think about how to improve your home, but not necessarily for going forward with entirely new projects.

Relationships with friends and family may be a little strained, or they can be up for review, as these are Venus-ruled areas of your chart.

All month: 

Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.

You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.

In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

This month: 

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.

Mercury is retrograde from November 16th to December 6th

While Mercury is retrograde, it's better to review, revise, and refine rather than push things forward, particularly related to communications, contracts, and transportation. Misunderstandings and delays are more likely.

Occurring in your solar sixth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to work, health matters, and daily routines. Be as non-judgmental as you can with co-workers and/or employees. Re-thinking the suitability of your job is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. Work-related mess-ups can frustrate you, or you might need to redo work that you thought was complete. However, you might find that the refinements you make now will be very valuable later. Double- check your work before submitting it. It's a fine time for researching health and nutrition programs, as well as job skills and opportunities, but perhaps not the best time for beginning all-new programs. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers and health professionals; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of personal communications in general as well as communications about the past because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your intuition usually serves you very well, but may not be up to par for the time being. Take care when it comes to presenting ideas, writing letters, and any detail work. You may not be seeing the whole picture.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

Until November 15th:

Mars continues to energize your solar eighth house. This is a less outwardly assertive or aggressive stage for you as you take the time to process recent events in your life and to develop strategies for going after what you want in the future. You are more observant than active during this cycle, and more strategic and deliberate when you do take action. There may be an increase in sexual appetite now. It's an excellent period for eliminating wasteful activities. Shared finances can come into focus, and you might feel an increased need to take charge of these matters. This could lead to disputes and disagreements if you are not careful or sensitive in your dealings with others.

From November 15th forward:

Mars animates and energizes your solar ninth house. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Overview Horoscope:

Cancer Monthly Horoscope Summary for November 2018: November holds good energy for a fresh start in a romantic relationship or creative project, dear Cancer, but also increasing focus on work, health, and habits as it progresses. Some significant shifts are occurring that introduce new themes into your life encouraging improved attitudes towards your work and routines, as well as about your independence and effectiveness!

While the energies of the month are not especially concentrated, there is a significant emphasis on your solar sixth house, which turns your attention to work, health, routines, services you render, daily affairs, diet, and habits more frequently than not. While it can be a time for managing and improving any of these things, it can also be a time when you discover areas of dissatisfaction which drive these improvements and refinements. You may be reworking projects or returning to old jobs that need attention in the second half of the month in particular. Fortunately, you're very often enjoying yourself as you do, especially from the 8th forward, when Jupiter joins this area of your chart.

Jupiter spends thirteen months in a sign before moving to the next one, and this sign change happens on November 8th. Jupiter begins a year-long transit of your work, health, and services sector then. Work tends to be very available to you or is more rewarding and fulfilling during this cycle. As well, health is likely to improve in the year ahead--you might especially enjoy helping and supporting others. There can be a stronger interest in nutrition, cleaner living, and fitness. Playing a supportive role can be draining if taken to an extreme, but if you draw your boundaries and don't overdo it, it can contribute to a stronger feeling of being needed. This influence will play out until December 2019, but you can begin to feel its vibes now, particularly around the 25-27. The last week of November can be work-intensive but is also likely to pull up the need to get to the healthiest rest-play balance.

Another significant shift this month that will stick around for some time is the North Node of the Moon, and its themes are entirely different than Jupiter's! The North Node moves into your sign, encouraging you to explore and develop your independence. The coming eighteen months is a period of confidence-building and of expressing yourself in new, exciting, and positive ways. Some of the greatest joys and challenges come through learning about your independence, personal courage, and effectiveness. You are learning to overcome any existing fears of trusting your instincts or going it alone, and it's a wonderfully empowering process! Its timing is especially interesting since it happens when there is heavy energy in your partnership sector with Saturn and Pluto encouraging some cleaning up and pruning on the relationship front. As such, you'll be putting a lot of energy into your relationships as well as your personal needs and endeavors.

Venus has moved back into your solar fourth house and will transit here all month. It's retrograde until the 16th, and you're likely to focus on bringing harmony, balance, and peace to your home life and family dynamics. There can be resurfacing problems to deal with but you are looking at these matters in new ways, and as things move forward in the second half of the month, you'll have a stronger idea of what's most important to you--and what to do about it.

At the same time, Mars enters Pisces, where it will transit until the last day of 2018. Neptune, a long-term guest in the same sign, turns direct on the 24th, and you're more adventurous, assertive, playful, and ready to take action. You begin to feel more energized, positive, and enthusiastic. Taking charge of your life comes more easily and naturally. You believe in your dreams. Mind you, Mercury turns retrograde mid-month, and there can be assorted small problems cropping up in your daily affairs and communications. Fortunately, there is a lot of cosmic support for a can-do attitude that helps you rise above it all.

AND Cancer Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Cancer:

November 2018 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.

Occurring in your solar fifth and sixth houses this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to romance, children, creativity, work, and daily routines. Be as non- judgmental as you can with co-workers, romantic partners, and your children. Re- thinking the suitability of your job and/or romantic relationships is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. Work-related mess-ups can frustrate you. Double-check your work. There may be the need to revisit old issues with your children or lover, or there could be some communication problems with the same. Arguments with a lover may be blown out of proportion far too easily. Both you and your lover should avoid harping on the words used and try to get to the meaning behind the words instead. Or, a romance may not be moving forward in obvious ways. It might seem like stagnation, but it's actually a period of review and rest. Other possibilities include calls that are not returned, a lover is late for a date, or dates get cancelled. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now. Things will change once Mercury turns direct, so you might decide to try to keep status quo for the time being. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers, professors, lawyers, romantic partners, and children, or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

AND Cancer Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Cancer:

November 2018 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until November 12th:

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.

From November 12th forward:

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.

Relationships with friends and family may be a little strained, or they can be up for review, as these are Venus-ruled areas of your chart.

Venus turns direct on the 16th:

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.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

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.

Mercury is retrograde from November 16th to December 6th

While Mercury is retrograde, it's better to review, revise, and refine rather than push things forward, particularly related to communications, contracts, and transportation. Misunderstandings and delays are more likely.

Occurring in your solar fifth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to matters surrounding romance, children, and creativity. Be as non-judgmental as you can with romantic partners and your children, if applicable. Re-thinking the suitability of your romantic relationships is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. There may be the need to revisit old issues with your children or lover, or there could be some communication problems with the same.

Other possibilities include calls that are not returned, a lover is late for a date, or dates get cancelled. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now. It's probably not the best time to launch a new creative project, but it's a good time for reworking an existing one. Same goes for romance! Things will change after Mercury turns direct, so you might decide to try to keep status quo for the time being. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with romantic partners, and children; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.

It's retrograde until the 16th, and you're likely to focus on bringing harmony, balance, and peace to your home life and family dynamics. There can be resurfacing problems to deal with but you are looking at these matters in new ways, and as things move forward in the second half of the month, you'll have a stronger idea of what's most important to you--and what to do about it.

At the same time, Mars enters Pisces, where it will transit until the last day of 2018. Neptune, a long-term guest in the same sign, turns direct on the 24th, and you're more adventurous, assertive, playful, and ready to take action. You begin to feel more energized, positive, and enthusiastic. Taking charge of your life comes more easily and naturally. You believe in your dreams. Mind you, Mercury turns retrograde mid-month, and there can be assorted small problems cropping up in your daily affairs and communications. Fortunately, there is a lot of cosmic support for a can-do attitude that helps you rise above it all.
