Cancer monthly horoscope
There is no monthly horoscope for this sign yet. The standing explanation is below.
Cancer begins at the summer solstice (in the northern hemisphere). It is a water sign, cardinal in nature and ruled by the Moon. The tradition links it with home, memory and care for those close by.
Sensitivity is both the strength and the vulnerability of this sign. Descriptions often return to a soft outside combined with a firm inside, and to the difference between withdrawing briefly to catch your breath and keeping your distance.
The positions of the Sun, Moon and planets are calculated with astronomical precision. The interpretation follows the Western astrological tradition: a centuries-old way of looking at the sky, not a scientific prediction.
