Cancer
Happy birthday, Cancer! Since the sun’s arrival in your sign at the end of June, you’re feeling deeply connected with your intuition. Cancer season is the perfect time for you to trust your instincts (because, honestly, they’re usually spot-on) and do what feels right to you. The Capricorn full moon on the 21st may leave you particularly sensitive to your relationship dynamics, particularly how they make you feel. And with Venus, Mercury, and the Sun basking in Leo from the 22nd, the end of the month is the time to channel this awareness into confronting anything that’s making you uncomfortable. Take this opportunity to reaffirm your confidence in yourself and the connections you hold closest to you. Overall, you’re on-track for a fruitful and potentially revolutionary birth month.

Prepare yourself for the best, but definitely keep your eyes and ears open for cues that suggest you may have been missing something in the past. The Capricorn Full Moon on the 21st follows this clarifying energy, helping you prioritize valuable relationships with both rationality and passion. As the month progresses, trust in your newfound awareness to navigate these revelations and strengthen the bonds that truly matter to you.
