Cancer Weekly Horoscope

Your social butterfly wings are about to get a workout starting Monday, April 29, when convivial Venus beams into Taurus and your outgoing eleventh house until May 23. Whether you've been looking for a book or yacht club to join or a sporty activity to participate in, no one will have to pry you out of your shell. The fun will find you, Cancer, and for a change, the more will be the merrier. Since Venus rules all things romantic, you could meet your match while out mingling casually, or friends may wind up “innocently” playing Cupid for you. The eleventh house also rules technology, which means kindred spirits could be a few clicks (or swipes) away. Coupled Crabs should come out of hibernation and circulate as a pair. With Venus in cultural-activities-loving Taurus, you can spend the next few weeks hopping from oyster bars to art openings to live shows at area venues. Or put a weekend getaway with friends on the books. How about renting a house with water views, or better yet, a houseboat?

Have you been sweeping something under the rug, Cancer? When direct Mars collides with dubious Neptune in your candid ninth house on Monday, you can’t keep biting your tongue. There’s a part of you that would like to ignore the problem and hope it goes away on its own. But you realize deep down that getting it out in the open sooner rather than later is the right move. There’s only one way to find out where everybody stands, and that’s to directly converse. Then you can figure out whether it’s best to stick together as a team or move on by yourself. A word of warning: No matter how justified your feelings are, be sure you’re not hurling accusations. That’s a surefire way to turn people off—after which getting them onboard will become an uphill battle. Take guilt trips off the table, too. They might work, but they’re a low blow.
