Cancer Horoscope for August: LoveThe beginning of Uranus’ retrogradation in the XI House of Cancer (08/15), tells of the distancing of people from the social circle (friends, colleagues), possibly due to misunderstandings and conflicts of interest. Retrograde Uranus in Cancer House XI can be used to analyze your position in the group of friends, and how it nurtures friendly and collaborative relationships (in the case of colleagues). Likewise, this transit aims to meditate on the nature of your dreams and aspirations, if you build a strategy that allows you to build them, or only belong to the intangible. For singles of the sign, the entry of Venus in Cancer (08/08) represents an increase in its charm and natural attractiveness, as well as the desire to find a partner, with whom to establish a relationship. However, the fact that Mars in House X of Cancer holds squares with Pluto (08/13) and Saturn (08/24) retrograde in House VII indicates that there are many self-imposed fears and restrictions to overcome before accept a more formal commitment. For Cancer couples, these alignments allude to discussions about the relevance given to professional life, to the detriment of the sentimental life of the native. Empathy and negotiation will be the key to overcoming confrontation. Finally, do not forget that Juno remains in the IV House of Cancer, which indicates the commitment to cultivate family relationships, and attend to the needs of the domestic area (repairs, remodeling, decoration). Juno in the IV House of Cancer also points to the connection with everything that brings you security, and what you can return to when you feel unprotected. |

Cancer Horoscope for August: MoneyFrom August 04 to 19, Mercury will be visiting Cancer House II, a transit that aims to diversify income sources, either on the initiative of the native, or for business and investment opportunities. In this sense, the trine starring the Sun in House II of Cancer, and Mars in House X (08/16), suggests that luck will play in your favor in the professional field. As Mercury in House II of Cancer will also hold a trine with Mars in House X, the next day (08/17), we discussed both possible salary increases, promotions, and new job offers. The fact that the New Moon in Leo, on 08/18, takes place precisely in House II of Cancer, reinforces the tendency to obtain advantageous economic agreements, and dividends from bank instruments. However, the conclusion of new contracts may take longer than expected, due to the squares of Mars in House X, with Pluto (08/13) and Saturn (08/24) retrograde in House VII. These configurations allude to the native’s fear of accepting new responsibilities, or leaving the comfort zone, although there is an awareness that these are necessary steps to advance towards the macro objective. Note: remember that Jupiter is also retrogressing in your House VII of Cancer, so it will be necessary to trust (really) your talent and what you deserve, to achieve positive results in the negotiation (have a clear vision of your goals) . On the other hand, the Full Moon in Aquarius on 08/03, will touch the VIII House of Cancer, representing the resolution of an economic conflict with your family or partner, and the financial reorganization of the group. Important: if you are waiting for failure of insurance processes, inheritances and successions, the lunar event can bring the answer. Another astrological aspect to consider, during August 2020, is the entry of the Sun into Cancer House III (08/22), which will benefit the presentation of ideas, and participation in seminars, congresses and workshops. In the same way, the Sun in House 3 of Cancer raises questions about your growth options (personal and professional), and what are your plans and strategies, for the short and medium term (is the place where you are now part of the path traced towards your overcoming?). As Mercury will also be in Cancer House III, from 08/19, the native’s mental plane will be focused on these considerations, and on how to approach their goals. Finally, the opposition between Mercury in House III of Cancer and Neptune retrograde in House IX (08/30), may cause inconvenience in the purchase of tickets, the processing of international documents, and the follow-up of scheduled itineraries. For the students of the sign, this alignment poses difficulties in exhibitions and presentations; delays in registration processes, or obtaining academic qualifications. |

Cancer Horoscope for August: HealthOn August 7, Venus will enter Cancer, emphasizing the construction of a new scale of personal values; and the practice of forgiveness and self-pity. Venus in Cancer encourages the work of deserving consciousness, self-esteem and the identification of the true desires of the soul, beyond social expectations. The planet of desire in the sign of Cancer also stimulates self-care activities. However, it is important to keep in mind that this trend can degenerate into hedonism (search for pleasure and immediate satisfaction), due to the entry of the asteroid Eros in Cancer (08/12). One way to balance the energy directed towards the “I” is through the North Node in Cancer’s House XII, which aims at volunteer service in support of humanitarian causes or people in need. Let us remember that the North Node in House XII, also speaks to us of facing events of a karmic nature; understand the link between the spiritual realm and the material world; and cultivate faith. |
