It’s easy to list what you need to do and what you want more of, but what may be most important for you to do is to note, and follow what lifts your spirits, and what challenges you in the best-possible way. Make that the center of your goals, and the rest will fall into place perfectly.
Lively get-togethers are fun, but life’s joys are found in the least likely of settings
Your birthday theme is a balance between your own life and your own stories and the lives of others and their stories. While you may care a lot about what they are doing—and in fact, in situations where you care about others you’ll be thrilled by their activities—by no means does that suggest you need to get involved.
You can be involved—by caring about it—but you and your own interests must come first. As a Cancer, you tend to feel that in order to show you care, you need to be out there with others, and often, those around you will be delighted if you come, but the fact is, looking after yourself and your own interests is an important part for you as a Cancer.
Being born under the sign of nurturance, that balance between being interested in and caring about others, but also caring about yourself, is always an important one. It’s also one you’re always learning because you’re changing and the world around you is changing, and that balance itself changes.
Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind is that this isn’t selfish. This is also showing those around you that they, too, can live a life that’s exciting and full of activities and caring, but also ensures that they are looking after their own best interests. That’s the secret.
There is a single phrase that defines your role when it comes to you and others. It’s give and take. That means in both cases, the individual in question must recognize what the other is interested in and enjoy that. This always shifts. There is no fixed recipe.
The important thing for you to remember is that there is a difference between a routine—that is, doing something—and doing the same thing. For you, taking care of yourself should be a routine. It’s important. However, doing the same thing week in and week out doesn’t qualify. Enjoying life is the best routine for your health and well-being.
It’s easy to list what you need to do and what you want more of, but what may be most important for you to do is to note, and follow what lifts your spirits, and what challenges you in the best-possible way. Make that the center of your goals, and the rest will fall into place perfectly.
Few things are more upsetting than clashes with those closest over issues that really shouldn’t be a problem. Or so you think. Begin delving into the source of those differences. What you learn won’t just be surprising. You’ll realize that a number of matters need to be discussed. And the sooner, the better.
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.
