YOUR WEEKLY HOROSCOPE

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | July 7th – July 13th 2025

For years you struggled to get to where you are, but now that you're in the Winner's Circle you'll see that it's just another playing field. It's enough to make a Cancer want to pack up and go home. Who wants to spend the rest of their life chasing away others as you defend your place at the head of the line? In truth you've come too far to turn back now plus the Full Moon in Capricorn on July 10th shows you've got what it takes. Life won't always be this demanding, but while it is it's a good idea to be just as demanding back.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | June 30th – July 6th 2025

It looks like the other party will agree to your terms courtesy of the first quarter Moon in Libra on July 2d. This is a waxing energy when the Moon, your ruler, is growing in light and given the strong influence of Venus it appears as if everyone will be happy with the outcome. Whether they're happy on the inside remains to be seen, but it's best not to press for now. Praise them for their generosity, thank them for their time and patience, and assure them that you are looking forward to future dealings. This will do a lot to assuage any bruised egos.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | June 23rd – June 29th 2025

It isn't easy to resist someone who's trying to intimidate you into doing something you don't want to do. It's human nature to yield the field and to lay low in hopes that they'll move on, but that rarely happens. At some point that bully will circle round again. The wonderful thing about the Sun conjunct Jupiter in your own sign on June 24th is that it gives you the courage to stand your ground along with support from a higher authority to stare down your opponent. Not only will this send the coward running, it also ensures they'll think twice about messing with you again.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | June 16th – June 22nd 2025

The time has come to shift the balance of power back to yourself. You tried to do things somebody else's way and it's clearly not working, but the Stars aren't saying that you have to do this overnight. Take the next few weeks to take back the reins. Being a Cancer you know that the best transitions are the ones that you make slowly, but surely. Not only will you accomplish what you set out to do without calling any undue attention to yourself, but by the time you're finished reclaiming your control loved ones and co-workers won't even know that there's been a change.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | June 9th – June 15th 2025

Propitious Jupiter in your zodiac sign doesn't mean you get to sit back and let the planet of good fortune and higher purpose do all the work. That would be a tremendous waste. What you want to do is engage in a creative collaboration and the first step is to follow up on any opportunity, invite, or proposal that comes your way. It may seem like a drop in the bucket now, but rest assured that that bucket will be brimming sooner than you think. Take the Summer to weigh your options and you'll know exactly what to do when Jupiter turns retrograde in November.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | June 2nd – June 8th 2025

Thoughts move from concept to execution in the blink of an eye when the Moon in Virgo forms a square to the Sun in Gemini on June 2d. That's because these two zodiac signs rule over invention and its subsequent application. There will be no hemming or hawing or second guessing because you know what steps to take. You can see it in your mind's eye. It's an excellent energy for public speaking, drafting a proposal, or making a pitch because your thinking is clear and your case compelling. It's also wonderful for sizing up complex situations on the spot with an easy to understand solution.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | May 26th – June 1st 2025

You've probably lost count of all the times you tried to make a creative project work. What should have been a no-brainer has turned into your biggest nightmare as it's resisted your best efforts to articulate it. For some reason the words escape you, the concept is hard to explain, or the result is a poor facsimile of what you see in your mind's eye. Nevertheless say “yes” when a boss or client asks you to return to the drawing board again on May 30th. Instead of another dead end you'll be surprised to find a sparkling idea where an uninspired concept used to be.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | May 19th – May 25th 2025

For the next 2 ½ years you'll find yourself at the beck and call of a demanding employer. Unfortunately, it won't be easy to tell if this person's demands are reasonable or not. If the demands are meaningful, then this will be a truly educational experience where you learn more than you ever could have before. If arbitrary then this could devolve into a tedious indentured servitude. Whether you're learning about what to do – or what NOT to do – this period will still be worth the travails. It's all meant to set you up for the day when you take on the mantle of authority.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | May 12th – May 18th 2025

The Full Moon in Scorpio on May 12th is making you feel more than just a little irritated. You're tired of being talked down to by fat cats who haven't moved off their laurels in dog's age. So is it your job to shake things up? You'll be sorely tempted to when the Sun conjoins Uranus, the planet of revolution and change on May 17th, but perhaps the greater revolution is a radical shift in perception. Stop trying to please people who can't be pleased and do what you think best. You'll be surprised by how quickly they come around to your way of thinking.

Cancer Weekly Horoscope | May 5th – May 11th 2025

One could say you're finding your voice this week except for the fact you never really lost it. What went missing was your self-confidence and you'll regain that when Mercury enters the zodiac sign of Taurus on May 10th. It looks as if somebody who's made your life miserable for weeks is finally moving on. Not only were you angry at them for talking over you, but you were also frustrated with yourself for allowing it to happen. Thankfully these feelings will dissipate as you recover the pluck you had before this person entered your life. It will be nice to speak your mind again.

YOUR YEARLY HOROSCOPE

Brought to you by Christopher Renstrom

Cancer Yearly Horoscope | 2025 Forecast

Jupiter, the planet of good fortune and higher purpose, enters Cancer on June 9th. Not only does this bring a flood of invites, opportunities, and lucky breaks, it also provides protection. Like the giant planet in our solar system that acts as a shield against meteorites, asteroids, and space debris that threaten our security, Jupiter has a similar function in Astrology. It guards against the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune long enough for you to prosper again. It's just the helping hand you need to get back on your feet after the steep challenges of 2024. Jupiter will be in Cancer until June 2026.

Cancers lead with their emotions. They’ll place protecting their family, their team or their tribe above other concerns. They use their empathy and nurturing skills to care for those around them, and will do anything to help a friend in need. People born under this sign are extremely intuitive and compassionate in nature.
