Planetary Love
It is just as Venus, the planet of love has reached her last weekend in your relationship sector and with over the next 12 days the Sun, Mercury and Mars all leaving as well, that from his position in Cancer, Jupiter is pushing back. Unlike last weekend's Full Moon, which also put a balance between your own and your relationship needs under pressure, without the emotional fog of war and with planets invested in helping you get the balance right.

Cancer Planets
Ruled by the Moon, the planet of emotions, intuition, and nurturing, Cancer is deeply attuned to their feelings and the well-being of those around them. The Moon gifts Cancers with a profound sense of empathy, making them highly sensitive to the emotional currents of their environment.
When the Sun transits Cancer from approximately June 21 to July 22, it enhances the sign's natural tendencies toward nurturing, protection, and creating a sense of home. This period highlights the importance of family, emotional security, and personal reflection. The Sun in Cancer brings a comforting energy that encourages introspection and the cultivation of close, supportive relationships.
The Moon's influence on Cancer significantly impacts emotional well-being and intuitive abilities. For instance, during a New Moon in Cancer, when the Moon conjuncts the Sun, it marks a time of new emotional beginnings and setting personal intentions. This aspect is ideal for initiating emotionally invested projects and strengthening family bonds. On the other hand, a Moon-Saturn opposition might present emotional challenges, requiring Cancers to balance their nurturing instincts with self-care and boundaries.
The Moon's transits through other signs also notably affect Cancer, given its rapid movement, cycling through all zodiac signs approximately every 28 days. When the Moon transits through Cancer, it heightens emotional sensitivity and a desire for comfort and security. Cancers may feel more connected to their home and family, making it an excellent time for domestic activities and bonding with loved ones.
When the Moon transits more detached signs like Aquarius or Gemini, Cancers need to adapt by embracing intellectual or social pursuits. These periods encourage Cancers to step out of their emotional comfort zones and engage with broader perspectives, fostering personal growth and resilience.
Other significant planetary influences for Cancer include Venus and Neptune. Venus's transit through Cancer enhances the sign's natural affinity for love and beauty, fostering deeper emotional connections and a greater appreciation for home aesthetics. Neptune, known for its dreamy and spiritual energy, amplifies Cancer's intuition and creativity, encouraging a deeper exploration of their inner world and artistic talents.
