While there can be some tensions to deal with revolving around relationships or finances today, dear Cancer, it can serve to balance out your thinking along realistic and practical lines.

Insecurities may lead to missed connections, and improvisation may not be natural for the time being if you are feeling out of sync. Keep in mind that people can be standoffish with a Venus-Saturn influence active now.

Worries about limited resources or the disapproval of someone in your life can dampen your spirits somewhat. As the day advances, a Mercury-Jupiter aspect comes into play and serves to lighten the mood.

It also encourages you to think in bigger terms. It’s an excellent time to make financial plans and to discuss strategies for reaching your goals. A problem that has bothered you might resolve itself.

Your vision of an issue is broad, and this helps you to put things into perspective. Your supportive role is not always recognized but could be “seen” now. With more faith in your abilities and your worth now, it could be a good time to attract positive feedback from others.

Crunch the numbers before running with a project. Your professional momentum is picking up traction now, so tread with caution. If you are suppressing your own needs to keep the peace, you could erupt in a moment of anger, pushing back against a domineering person.

Think twice before launching into a long-winded diatribe and be open to considering another perspective. Be careful that your own ego doesn’t provoke an unnecessary conflict.

However, there’s no need to walk on eggshells. Speak clearly to catalyze true resolution. Other people are not as fragile as you think.

When the faster moving planets all came together in your income sector last week it was always going to be temporary. Just two days after Mars left and turned his focus onto your communications, Venus does the same today.

There are still enough forces in play on the income front to keep the momentum going, but a shift has begun. This is good news for your relationships and especially with Venus, the planet of love on board.

For now, you have the best of both worlds, with exciting new developments on the communication and relationship fronts, while things are still unfolding across the income, work and career fronts.

Today’s Quote: “Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
