Cancer 22nd June - 22nd July
There is a lot happening this year and a lot of change and for those born under the sign of Cancer, that could ring warning bells. However, rest assured, this is change of the exciting kind with a mix of major new beginnings and an exciting year professionally without upsetting your work/life balance. If there was one year when you could have your cake and eat it too, this is it. As you move into the New Year Jupiter is not only still in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart but is in retrograde motion, with the final year of your current 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion well into its review mode. It is not until 4th February that Jupiter will turn direct and start heading back towards his return to Cancer on 10th June and the start of not just a new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion, but a lucky and expansive year full of the potential for major new beginnings.
By then a lot will have changed and especially on the professional landscape, though with a major effort underway first to get the most out of Saturn and Neptune’s final months in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery. Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams who has been here since 2012 will leave on 31st March while Saturn, who has been here since March 2023 will leave on 25th May. While a parade of planets will not only move through between 3rd January and 17th May, but because of retrograde turns Venus and Mercury will both spend a considerable amount of time here. This is a chance to capture the spirit of adventure as Neptune returns to your career sector for the first time in three decades on 31st March and Saturn for the first time in three decades on 25th May.
They will both return to an adventurous part of your chart for a few months later in the year, but both will leave and return to your career sector in early 2026, Saturn to spend until April 2028 and Neptune until 2029. By early February things will be starting to move on the career front and will be in full swing by the end of March. This is something that Mars will be keen to exploit when after retrograding back out of your income sector on 6th January, he will return for a do over from 18th April to 17th June. This will provide some competition for Pluto, who after spending 2024 transitioning out of your relationship sector and into your financial sector is finally settled in and will be here until 2044. As the planet of change and transformation he is here to change things up and especially your relationship with money, but here for the next 20 years there is no pressure to reinvent the wheel overnight.
