What a difference a few days can make. It was only over the weekend that Mars, now in his last full week in Cancer, emerged on the other side of what had been a tense 10 day period. During that time both Mercury and Mars found themselves on the receiving end of pressure from both Saturn and Pluto. Yet this was running its course just as the Sun returned to Cancer over the weekend, to begin your birthday month and new solar year. Mars mission to see you fight to take your personal power back was ending its most challenging phase, just as your birthday month and new solar year began. In the lead up to next week's solar eclipse and a chance for major new beginnings, this has been a chance to expose anything that is holding you back. At the same time that tensions dial back there are some exciting new developments across the income, work and career fronts that are set to gather momentum over the coming weeks.

Cancerians are good at nurturing. Ruled by the Moon, they make great parents, and can be selfless when it comes to making sacrifices for their families. Cancerians are also shrewd judges of character, and give useful advice. They are quick to offer a sympathetic ear and a shoulder to cry on, followed by a warm hug. A kind, caring Cancerian is a blessing in times of crisis. Cancerians love food, and spoiling the people they love. Family comes first with Cancerians, but even when they have little or no family of their own, they will create a family atmosphere with their friends.

The trouble is that they tend to get addicted to the role of nurturer, and find it hard to let go when loved ones need to stand on their own feet. Make sure you know when to step back as well as forward, because things get really ugly when your mother love turns to smother love.
