Today's Cancer Horoscope by Patrick Arundell

(Cancer 22 June - 23 July)

Wednesday 12th December

With the illumination of the Sun in your lifestyle zone and the Moon in Aquarius, you may be drawn to people or ideas that have something fresh and different about them. Then again, you might be attracted by an opportunity that comes out of no-where. The key to finding something that appeals might also hinge on your preparedness to move out of your comfort zone and take a bold step.

Horoscope for All on Wednesday, December 12, 2018

Mercury first moved into the sign of Sagittarius on October 31st, but then turned retrograde on November 16th and retreated into Scorpio on December 1st.
Now in Sagittarius again, Mercury will continue here until January 4th. Mercury in Sagittarius is curious, questioning, and brave with our thoughts and ideas. Our thinking is forward, faithful, and optimistic. We’re intuitive and bold, but we may not be very precise during this transit. Until the 24th, Mercury remains in its post-retrograde shadow, and we may be covering old ground.
The Moon transits Aquarius all day, harmonizing with the Sun around midday, promoting cooperation and reconciliation. We are idealistic and broad-minded under this influence, enthusiastic about sharing ideas and visions with others.

This Month: Cancer

Cancer Monthly Horoscope Summary for December 2018: The month ahead is powerful for taking care of business, improvements to work and health, and for enjoying and expressing yourself, dear Cancer. You move beyond the blocks and delays of recent weeks (even months) and enjoy special attention, relationships, and improved routines in December. Problems straighten out and answers or news you've been waiting for arrive, helping clear the path for better decisions and forward motion as the year comes to a close. Conversations or situations that left you stumped in November can start to make sense this month. Projects or endeavors related to work or health that stalled now pick up again. Some ideas may be scrapped while others pick up the pace.

Mars is a guest in your sector of spirit and adventure up until the last day of the month/year, fueling your energy and motivating you to reach beyond your normal limits. Certainly, your work and daily affairs can be exhausting at times, and there is a stronger and necessary focus on these things, but you're also finding the time to pursue other interests and activities that help nourish your soul and inspire you to reach higher. You have more courage to try new things, and you're strongly motivated to learn, grow, improve, share, and connect. This can be a time for discovering a new passion or interest, or you could be rekindling an exciting project or study. Either way, you're enthusiastic.

Due to Mercury's recent retrograde in your work and health sector and current retrograde in your pleasure zone until the 6th, slowing down in the first week of the month makes sense. Look at past projects for ideas and inspiration and focus on editing and improving. After this date, and especially beyond the 12th, you're in an excellent position to get work done and focus on health goals. Conversations or initiatives that stalled in November can regain momentum as blocks clear and delays or restrictions lift this month. The 20-21 is particularly strong for conversations and further thoughts and insights into health and wellness or work and chores. Look for opportunities to grow and expand your skills, a business, or project and improve your self-care programs.

Your romantic or creative life is brighter and happier, and you get special help from Venus who spends virtually all of December in harmony with your sign, boosting your appeal and personal confidence, and perhaps winning you some admirers, too.

Mars is encouraging you to broaden your horizons this month. Restlessness can sometimes pull you away and distract you, especially on the 1-2 and 5-6, but overall you're in a good position to balance your focus on routine and responsibility with your attention to discovery and exploration. Listen to your intuition on the 7th when ideas for the future can be golden. You may not know all the details just yet, but that's just fine--with the New Moon in Sagittarius and Mars aligned with Neptune, it's more about the vision now. Mid-month can be excellent for making changes in your relationships or breaking out of worn-out relating patterns. You may get a chance to take a connection or project to a new level.

The Full Moon in your sign on the 22nd holds the promise of a "big reveal" or an awakening to your true feelings on a matter. You are likely to come to a personal epiphany as you recognize feelings that you may have buried due to busy-ness or distraction. This lunation puts you in the spotlight - you are in demand! Knowing your heart is empowering, even if you don't yet have a plan set in stone for going after what you want, and it's a beautiful way to close out the year.

This Year: Cancer

2018 Yearly Horoscope Overview

The year ahead is strong for self-expression, personal enjoyment, and creative pursuits, dear Cancer. You’re likely to boost your earnings, although you’re also inclined to spend more! Serious energy is brought to partnerships in 2018.

Until November, Jupiter continues to bring fullness to your life in the areas of recreation, romance, and creativity. Many opportunities arise for you to enjoy yourself. For most Cancers, this period is about rediscovering the child within. Also, as Jupiter moves in harmony with your sign, your ability to take things in stride grows by leaps and bounds. You might hunger for more channels to express your unique qualities. Romance may get a boost. You’re more fertile on many different levels, and you’re inclined to seek out various pursuits and pleasures that satisfy your increased desire to have fun, play, and express yourself.

Also this year, you’re learning to trust your instincts, natural talents, and ability to stand on your own. You are learning to depend on yourself more and to establish your self-worth through your own efforts. Pressures from a partner or in a core relationship may feel uncommonly weighty now, and this can sometimes interfere with your work on developing a stronger sense of self-worth and independence, but shouldn’t deter you.

You have one of the most playful transits going on in your dating and entertainment sector, but a rather strict, serious, and mature energy going on in your partnership and binding relationship house this year. This can be a very significant year for love, both casual and serious. In order to experience balanced relationships, you need to work on building inner peace, rather than focusing on achieving peace and balance through relationships. This year and the next, you are discovering or re-discovering your true needs and desires. You have a powerful Solar Eclipse in your sign in mid-July encouraging you to discover your independence, as well.

A long-term cycle that’s influenced your career for many years will come to an end in March 2019. This year, you’ll get hints of what the new cycle is all about, and you’ll enjoy more predictability regarding your career, life path, status, or reputation. Dramatic ups and downs in your career path tend to subside, although you are still required to adapt to subtle shifts. The cycle that’s emerging now is set to shake up your social circle. Some friendships may be left behind, and new ones are made, although they may not be quite as reliable as the ones you had in the past. You may be moving with a new or different crowd. You are less prone to rebel in 2018, and more inclined to live more authentically.

Jupiter moves to your work and health sector in November, and this transit brings increased opportunities for work (possibly even a little too many!) and more interest in, and enjoyment of, health routines, self-care improvements, and work projects. This theme will develop more fully in 2019. Also in November, the North Node moves into your sign, and you’re making the significant discovery that you can stand on your own and succeed very well in so doing!

This Year in Love: Cancer

2019 Love Horoscope for Cancer

Saturn continues to transit your partnership house, and this is a rather serious, mature, and responsible transit when it comes to close, binding relationships. It’s a longer-term transit, too, lasting until 2020. Jupiter and Saturn working together tends to produce results, and with both of them working together in your partnership sector from December 2nd, 2019 to December 2020, this can be a very significant period for committed partnerships, love-based or otherwise! There can be joy in commitment or in getting serious with someone.

In fact, relationships are likely to make headlines in your life this year and the next couple of years.

Until December 2019, Jupiter is moving through your work and health sector, and you can be pouring a lot of energy into your work, daily routines, and health pursuits. This is a time of special self-care.

Further evidence that you’re exploring your independence and partnering this year is a set of eclipses occurring in your sign and partnership sector all year and until mid-2020. The North Node moved into your sign on November 6th, 2018. This transit will continue throughout 2019 and into 2020, and brings a strong need to discover your independence. This does not mean excluding a partner from your life. It simply means that in order to experience balanced relationships, you need to work on building internal peace, rather than focusing on achieving peace and balance through relationships. It’s time to take care of yourself and discover or re-discover your true needs and desires! You also have powerful Solar Eclipses in your sign and opposite sign this year. Eclipses in your partnership sector along with big players Saturn and Pluto in that area of your chart means it’s big news for learning about what and who you want in your life. This can be a make-or-break period for many Cancers’ relationships!

Saturn is your partnership sector ruler, and as such, has rule over your more serious or binding partnerships. With Saturn in its own sign and in his own terms, Saturn is happy and performs particularly well. Capricorn is a serious, mature energy much like Saturn, and you are likely to be taking committed relationships quite seriously this year and the next. Older, more mature, or more serious partners can figure strongly now. You seek out a bit of convention or tradition in your relationships.

In 2019, Saturn forms a wonderful link to Neptune, and Neptune is currently a long-term guest in your sector of expansion, foreign connections, education, publishing, sharing ideas, long-distance travel, and adventurous non-routine activities. This can point to ..cont’d
