CANCER | MAY HOROSCOPE

Happy May, dear Cancer! The month starts off with Mercury, the planet of communication, ingressing your Gemini 12th house of isolation and subconscious, indicating a time of withdrawal and exploring of your inner self. You might feel inclined to go off on your own and educate yourself on deeper and more spiritual subjects that are connected to you. On the 8th, Venus joins Mercury in your 12th house of Gemini. Venus’ transit through the 12th house is usually one of the most beneficial ones, so during this time you might feel inclined to tend to others, or others will help seek from you. This transit can also indicate subconscious energies coming to the surface as it pertains to your relationships. Perhaps some key things you need to pay attention to will come up during this transit for you to face and resolve. On the 11th, the New Moon in Taurus will activate your 11th house of hopes, ideas and networking, giving you the opportunity to plant new seeds and manifest new goals! Don’t be afraid to reach out to others and collaborate with them to manifest greatness. Perhaps these goals you work on can have the potential of bringing you some financial blessings! On the 13th, Jupiter, the planet of expansion and knowledge, enters its home sign of Pisces and your 9th house of education, travel and spirituality, indicating a time where you will be inclined to expand the horizons and boundaries of your mind. What are new subjects that you are eager to learn about? What new information, beliefs and thoughts are making its way into your life right now in order to induce an intellectual change? Take advantage of this preview we are having of Jupiter in Pisces for a couple of months this year and dive deep! On the 20th, the Sun enters your 12th house of Gemini, joining both Venus & Mercury and marking the official start to Gemini season. This is a time where paying attention and tending to your subconscious comes to the forefront. Allow feelings to come up, Cancer, recognize them and then let them go. Oftentimes, the Sun’s transit through the 12th house can have past behavioral patterns come up presently. It is okay to acknowledge these but also remember they are past patterns for a reason, if the lesson has been learnt, thank the thought for coming up and then release it. In a way, this is a cycle coming to a close for you Cancer, since the 12th house is the last house on our birth chart before entering a new cycle through the 1st house again. On the 23rd, Saturn, the planet of discipline and restrictions, stations retrograde in your 8th house of shared finances. This can indicate a time of reevaluating, restructuring and re assessing this area of life. Are there any agreements or contracts regarding joint resources that need to be revisited or rethought? Are the foundations of these solid enough to sustain your investments or all the work you’ve put in this area of life? Saturn will be present in your 8th house until March 2023, so these situations can come up over time! On the 26th, we are welcomed back into eclipse season, with a Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius, illuminating your 6th house of health and work. Now with eclipses, I always say just let the energy be, since it's practically a lunation on steroids, and it can be somewhat hard to manipulate this energy during this time. Sit back, tune into yourself and your spirit guides and let the messages come through to release whatever needs to be released right now. On the 29th, Mercury stations retrograde in your 12th house of Gemini. As previously stated with retrogrades, this is a time of rethinking and re evaluating, in this case, when it comes to your own subconscious mind and connecting with your inner self. Tend to your mind during these next few weeks, Cancer.
