The Week Ahead for Cancer
Monday, October 5th – Sunday, October 11th
New moons occur every month and in different areas of your solar chart, so there are several occasions upon which to make a fresh start and implement changes aimed at inspiring growth and fulfilment. Saturday’s new moon highlights the zone of home and family so any new beginning will have something to do with the roots of life and the foundations of the future. Maybe a home move is in the planner or a new arrival expected; on the other hand, career changes could lie ahead. It was a challenging opening to October, so if nothing else, you have an opportunity to regroup and reboot.
Look forward, not back.

Monday, September 28th – Sunday, October 4th
Sun-Saturn aspects are a drag, let’s face it. They have purpose and we can achieve much with them, but we don’t always love the process. Maybe you have a big task on your hands – moving home, perhaps, or some other job that requires physical labour. On the other hand, you could be facing a situation that is emotionally challenging. Whatever the test, you can rise to it, and once you start working with it, you’ll lose any of the fear and doubts. Do not doubt yourself. Keep on going. For some Cancerians, however, this is a time of great achievement or a sense of coming home.
Taking the bull by the horns.

The Month Ahead for Cancer
October 2026
The realizations come thick and fast. You may have thought you had plenty of time to reach a decision about your long-term future, but events could speed the process. Whether you want to get on the property ladder, move to a new location or change career direction, it is time to make it happen. Likewise, if you’ve been putting up with an unacceptable situation, it is time to say enough is enough. Finances could be part of the story, and what may help with the decision-making is believing in yourself and your ability to survive and thrive, whatever the outcome.

The Year Ahead for Cancer
Last year saw the beginning of an important, potentially life-changing, phase, and it continues apace in 2026. Right from the beginning of January, events make their mark on your future, and a relationship could be in the mix… Jupiter’s passage through Cancer will come to an end in July, so make the most of the opportunities that present themselves because it will be another twelve years before you have this planetary super-power behind you again. Make the moves. Have confidence in your talents and your ability to manifest.
