Cancer Weekly Horoscope

It’s not every day that you click with a group, but when you find your people, Cancer, you are the loudest brand evangelist from the neighborhood coffee shop to the social media sphere. This week you may get a harsh reminder that there is no perfect organization out there. On Tuesday, May 26 aggro Mars in your teamwork zone squares off with stormy Pluto, which could lift the curtain on some things you simply can’t unsee. You may also find yourself at odds with your closest of allies, unsure if you’re taking things a little too personally or if their misstep justifies voting them off the island. Squares can feel sudden but are also not the best days to make impulsive moves. Don your Nancy Drew cap and seek proof if you suspect that someone is trying to advance a self-interested agenda. Approach this strategically instead of firing off accusations. You might even tap an influential third party, like an HR director or a lawyer. If the offense was minor, though, see if you can come up with a workable compromise. You’ll have to address the subject directly, yes, but wait till cooler heads prevail—early next week.

Are your love goals out of sync with your long-range ambitions? You’ll have a chance to do some course correction this Thursday, as ardent Venus in Cancer gets into a dynamic duel with dreamweaver Neptune. Have you set unrealistic expectations for yourself at work and play? “Married to the job” is not the right relationship status for you. But neither is the other extreme. If you find yourself drifting away from a personal passion, consider it a red flag. Are you becoming overly invested in someone else’s success? Or maybe, if you’re honest, you’re hoping someone will come along and take care of YOU for a change. We can’t blame you, Cancer, except that strategy won’t leave you feeling strong and fulfilled. Aim for balance. You need friends and romantic partners to be in your corner, obviously. Just don’t abandon yourself to be there for them!

If you missed the wellness wagon on its last few passes around your block, lace up your trainers and go flag it down! Sunday the 31st marks May’s second full moon. This rare blue moon happens to be in sporty Sagittarius and your sixth house of health, fitness and daily routines. Nevermind if you’ve been slacking a bit in any of those areas. Just look ahead. This lunar lift can give you a blast of motivation to start a new regimen—and stick with it! Taking care of yourself shouldn't be a goal that you’ll get around to “someday.” It’s the foundation of a happy and healthy life! You want to feel strong and flexible and get your stress under control. If you’re having sleep or energy issues or your moods too frequently get the better of you, an underlying imbalance is the likely culprit. Over the next two weeks, get belated medical appointments on the books, commit to regular movement (whether outdoors, at the gym or yoga or on your vibration plate). Load up your fridge with plant-based goodies and, if it’s in the budget, treat yourself to some massage or other bodywork. For Cancers who HAVE been prioritizing self-care, your body might be ready for a mild detox, in which you cut out—or cut way back on—inflammatory and histamine-producing foods.
