Cancer Weekly Horoscope

Wave the white flag, Cancer. The time has come for you to surrender and allow other people to support you. You’re a competent alpha who will burn the candle at both ends to get the job done — and done to perfection. Yet there’s no reason for you to struggle so. With the Sun in Gemini and your 12th house of completions for the next month, you’re being urged to relax, relate and release that control. The world will not fall apart if you don’t micromanage it; in fact, as you let go, you’ll give other people an opportunity to step forward and contribute. Expect to be amazed by people’s generosity, especially if you make clear and direct requests instead of expecting them to read your mind.

This is the final month of your annual zodiac cycle, a time for cleaning house and clearing the decks for your next year of life. You may feel low-energy this week, which is a sign that you are overloaded. Declutter your life, Cancer. You can begin with your physical space and then move on to the emotional field. What feelings have you been hanging on to that need to be addressed with the important people in your life?

This is an important week for cutting ties with toxic people who zap your energy. Some Cancers may even leave a job that is sucking the life out of them. Before you sacrifice the paycheck, however, see what happens if you start up a conversation with the draining employer or client about revising the terms of your agreement. You tend to play the martyr role at work, taking on more than the average employee ever should. Try negotiating a new set of responsibilities and find out if you can delegate some of the tasks to another person.

Getting into a meditative mind-set is the key to success now, not doing more, more, more. You’ll find that time seems to expand when you give yourself regular breaks to relax and refresh your mind. Download a meditation CD or listen to the guided words of Gabrielle Bernstein at gabbyb.tv. Music soothes the savage Cancer, so get the portable sound system set up and get your Spotify on so you can explore new genres of sound.
