Every once in a while, something happens. You begin something, and everything falls into place as if by magic. Then you tell somebody about it and they begin to ask questions: questions that trigger worries. Suddenly that magic is gone. There’s a solution, and it’s not doing things in a new way. It’s deciding who you’ll discuss your activities and plans with and who you won’t, and then sticking to that decision.
Can you dance with love? Yes, and especially when you’re alone, your feelings are free
As an industrious Cancerian, you’re always aware of what you want to do and what your goals are that lay ahead, but it’s hard not to be aware of setbacks of certain types, situations that you didn’t expect or perhaps those that involve others who either aren’t happy to get involved in changes and throw obstacles in your road, or who complain with every step.
Instead of waiting for them to catch on to what you’re doing, simply proceed. If they discuss what you are doing, and even complain, then change the subject. Gradually, they will realize that you won’t get involved in their game of complaining and they will turn their attention to other individuals.
In your case, the task ahead is not a difficult one. It is to find new joys: joys that can be achieved easily, joys that don’t require the cooperation of those individuals who seem to have fun triggering obstacles or making problems.
This is one of your biggest lessons and challenges. Choose your own approach to what you’re doing, and in doing so, program how it will proceed and the ways you will avoid those complainers.
Do that and everything else will flow with an ease that may be so thrilling that you regard it as sheer magic.
There are two approaches to any situation. The first is to define your objective, and take that first step. The other has to do with trying to predict the way those around you respond. If you start worrying about others, you might find future steps complicated. If, on the other hand, you make each step your own, you will not only achieve more, you’ll enjoy it as well.
The theme for this is choosing to take care of yourself, to move in a way that is actually fun, that you want to do, maybe with those around you. This suggests that you do something that is uninteresting, but they’re enthusiastic. Give it a try. The secret is the word “no,” or perhaps “no, thank you”—but definitely “no.”

Having to deal with tedious problems is bad enough. But having to discuss them at length with those who will insist on going into these matters in detail is the last thing you’re in the mood for. Despite that, these need attention. And the longer you wait, the more troublesome they will become.
Cancer: JUNE 20 – JULY 21
Ruler: The Moon
Symbol: The Crab
Element: Water
Flower: Lily
The only sign ruled by the Moon, Cancer accents cycles —both nature’s rhythms, especially the oceans and tides, and those in our lives. The symbol, the crab, is linked to water, as are your sign’s flowers: the lily and the lotus. Your herbs are aromatic, tarragon and verbena, and your tree is the maple. Your jewel, the pearl, not only comes from the sea, it mirrors the Moon’s form.
