Cancer

Sunday's Moon in your sign, alongside Mars, likely stirred up a mix of emotion and impatience. You felt things deeply and wanted to move forward, but the waning phase encouraged release rather than action. If you let go of an old hurt or simply allowed yourself to feel without fixing, you honoured the day's quiet power. Rest was not weakness; it was wisdom.

The Moon enters Virgo and your third house of communication, shifting your attention to messages, errands, and local connections. With Mercury retrograde in Scorpio, be especially careful with creative or romantic communication—tone can be misread, so choose clarity over cleverness. Venus retrograde in Libra, your fourth house, continues to prompt reflection on home and family dynamics. Today favours practical tasks: return that call, sort that paperwork, have the straightforward conversation you've been postponing. Small clarity brings big relief.

This week invites you to release what you're holding too tightly. Monday's Last Quarter Moon in Leo falls in your second house of money and possessions, asking you to examine what you truly value versus what you're keeping out of fear or inertia. The Sun in Scorpio lights up your fifth house of creativity, romance, and pleasure, while Mercury retrograde here brings past projects or lovers back into focus for review, not necessarily reunion. When the Moon enters Virgo on Tuesday, your third house of communication becomes active—midweek is excellent for clearing your inbox, running errands, and having practical conversations. Friday sees the Moon move into Libra and your fourth house of home, where Venus retrograde is already working; this weekend asks you to reflect on family patterns and domestic needs. By Sunday, the Moon reaches Scorpio, deepening your creative and romantic focus. Finish one unfinished project, even if imperfectly, and notice the space that opens.

November begins with both Mercury and Venus retrograde, slowing the pace in matters of the heart and home. Mercury moves backward through your fifth house of romance and creativity until the 14th—an old love interest may reappear, or a creative project demands revision. Venus retrograde in your fourth house of home and family until the 14th asks you to reconsider your living situation or emotional foundations. Both planets station direct on the 14th, bringing clarity and forward motion. The New Moon in Scorpio on the 9th plants a seed in your fifth house: set an intention around creative expression, children, or romantic joy. The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 22nd, shifting focus to your sixth house of work and health—practical matters demand attention. Mars moves into Virgo and your third house of communication on the 26th, sharpening your words and quickening your pace. The Full Moon in Gemini on the 24th illuminates your twelfth house of solitude and the unconscious—pay attention to dreams and what wants to be released. November is a month of emotional archaeology: dig up what's buried, tend to it, then let it transform.

Home, family and emotional security take centre stage. Nurturing yourself as well as others is the theme. A move or a deepened bond could define the year.
