The Week Ahead for Cancer
Monday, April 6 – Sunday, April 12
Towards the end of March, the Sun made its first pass over Saturn and Neptune, and now Mars prepares to do the same. This may explain why you are feeling unaccountably anxious or unable to figure out what precisely is going on. Since the focus for these planetary developments is career/life-direction, you need to be particularly alert for mistakes and missteps by those in authority and covert actions by people who could undermine you. On the plus side, you could be on the receiving end of a dream development and/or feeling truly inspired.
Divinely weird.
See last week’s forecast below.
Monday, March 30 – Sunday, April 5
One of the more important full moons of 2026 takes place on Thursday. This full moon flanks the life-direction axis so career and material matters, on the one hand, and home and the foundations of the future, on the other, are in the frame. This is a good time to make a hard and fast decision and/or to close a long chapter but it may also be that you have little choice as to what comes to a close. Jupiter is also in the mix which adds to the sense of celebration and joy, although, as always with Jupiter, you can have too much of a good thing…
Comme ci, come ҫa.

The Month Ahead for Cancer
April 2026
If you want something badly enough now is the time to pull out all the stops. You may not like showing your ambition or revealing your heart’s desire, but if you’ve got it, flaunt it. (Most people regret what they didn’t do, not what they did.) Career is to the fore with some Cancerians taking on a bigger role and others seeing the writing on the wall and considering their options. The weekend of the 15th presents you with a choice, and a relationship could be in the mix. Put your long-term interests first; a short-term fix will just be prolonging the agony.

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.
