Your Starsign

Cancer

June 22 - July 23


Today's Horoscope for Monday May 25th

It will be important to get a clearer idea of where you want your life to go from now on. Regard setbacks as learning lessons now. They may bring humility and a deeper understanding of your purpose in life. Neptune is around dissolving your old will-driven approach to career and ambition. This can feel strange at first but gradually you will adjust your hopes and see that there are other things than fame, success and glory. You can be wonderful without being first.



The Weekly Outlook from 25th May

Mars in aspect to Pluto tends to bring situations which you don't like but can't do much about. You may feel you are lacking in choices but that will lift after midweek. Don't react by pushing anyone around but neither is it a good time to let others have it all their own way either. Maybe you are trying too hard to stay in control or will be tempted to act secretly to avoid confrontations. Being devious may not be entirely wise since it could backfire. Be patient and all will come right.

Your Monthly Horoscope for May

Mars at your midheaven will be heightening your ambitions and making for a decisive and direct approach which will cut through confusion and indecision. You may not always be tactful but you will make headway. Luckily friends and team mates will be on hand with support and advice and you'll do best if you can cooperate which won't always be easy but will produce results. Sorting out plans and goals for the coming year will be a priority. Tomorrow will not look after itself. Your optimism and self-confidence will be high with Jupiter in your own sign for another few weeks. After mid month you'll be in a push and pull situation. The Gemini Sun and Mercury hint that taking a step back to reflect and recharge your batteries will be sensible. While Mars in Taurus will surround you with energetic companions who will be keen that you don't let the grass grow under your feet.

and Next Month's Horoscope for June

Taking it slow may not suit your high-initiative temperament but a relax-and-refresh three weeks will do you the world of good. You will be able to recharge your batteries as well as get recent events into perspective and take the chance to plan ahead. Energetic friends will not leave you to linger for long and will be constantly chivvying you not to let the grass grow under your feet but you need to thank them for their interest and move at your own pace. Luckily you won't be short of conversation or opinions so will be chatting non-stop - with your feet up. After midmonth temptations to indulge yourself will send you off spending on non-essential but heart-warming items. Into the final ten days with your birthday Sun revving up your engine you will be flying ahead with renewed vigour. This will be your moment to shine and everyone you encounter should respond well to your presence. Making good resolutions for the time ahead will keep your optimism high.

Year Ahead 2026

Lucky Jupiter moving through your own sign until July will put a twinkle in your eye and a lilt in your step since you?ll reckon that increased resources and improved relationships will be a guarantee. Your positive approach will prove infectious so your popularity will rise. There will be practical matters to resolve at home with a few plans not working out as you had hoped. Be realistic and be determined and you will be building stronger foundations for yourself not only in the domestic sphere but also in relationships with loved ones. There will be anchors dragging behind the scenes with Pluto moving slowly through Aquarius, the deepest and most confidential area of your chart. You?ll be asking yourself probing questions about fundamental matters as well as wrestling with financial or emotional agreements which will need to reach a fair settlement. Be patient, firm and flexible and do not get discouraged about how long it takes. From April you will be shining light on hidden places and discovering a rebellious spirit that yearns to push your life in new directions in future. You may have to live with your restless urges for a while so there will be time to plot and plan how you intend to carve a more independent road in future. From July for the year ahead more money will roll through. Your spending is likely to rise so there may not be much surplus but you will enjoy yourself. The eclipse pattern for the year focuses mainly on finances and security. Making an effort to up your game and change your strategy will pay off. Early on you?ll also be keen to waken up your social life and after August you will aim to travel or broaden your horizons in other ways.
