The Week Ahead for Cancer
Monday, April 27 – Sunday, May 3
Friday’s full moon brings the curtain down on one of the most volatile periods of the year. Maybe you have been dealing with one challenge after another so that you’ve had little time for rest and relaxation or perhaps you’ve been fine and dandy and other people’s dramas have taken up your time. Whatever the pattern of the past three months, things are changing. In a nutshell, this full moon marks the end of a gestation period so either something is ready to be delivered or it is poised to move on to a new stage. On the other hand, a project could be done and dusted.
Endings.

Monday, April 20 – Sunday, April 26
In an astrological climate like this, anything and everything may happen. It is a time of great global change, so even if all is well in your small world, there’s a lot going on “out there”. With Mercury, Mars and Saturn lined up in your zone of career and life-ambitions, plans can be consolidated and big decisions made, yet it is also possible that something will not work out as you hoped and new arrangements will have to be made. While you may need to act swiftly, if at all possible, step back, allow the dust to settle and then decide on your best move.

The Month Ahead for Cancer
May 2026
You can’t have your cake and eat it too. Something’s got to give. As long as you’ve got most of what you have worked or hoped for, accept it. Continuing to hold out for more will end badly. While this advice applies first and foremost to career and financial matters, a little more give and take will ensure success in your personal life too. Venus will enter your sign on the 19th sprinkling you with fairy dust! Expect an uptick in romance and fun times, and a little more luck in general. As always, when you expect the best that’s usually what you get.
