On September 23, the Moon enters Cancer-get ready for an emotional journey! But don’t worry, it will probably be a positive one. Cancer is a highly emotional sign, and because of this, the Moon’s presence in Cancer can encourage us to hold those we love a bit closer. It might make us crave deep, soul-level connections. But there are other powerful effects as well. The moon only stays in each sign for a short time, so we need to take advantage of and enjoy these effects while we can! Here’s what happens when the Moon enters Cancer:
- You’ll feel a deep connection to your family and close friends.
Cancer holds their family and friends very close to their heart, and even if you’re not always the warm and fuzzy type, that might change when you feel the Moon’s influence this Friday! Maybe this weekend is a good time to plan a get together and gather everyone around for a good time.
- You’ll have a great sense of humor about everything this weekend.
Even if you’re usually a more serious, Type-A person, you might break out of that pattern while the Moon is in Cancer. Cancer has a great sense of humor, and they’re always the one who’s trying to lighten up the mood in the room. If something goes wrong, feel free to just laugh it off. Using humor to get through rough days can make life feel a little easier.
- You won’t have patience for anything superficial.
Cancer sees right through the shallow surface of anything-you can’t hide the truth from Cancer! When the Moon enters Cancer, it sheds a light on truths that may have been hidden, but now, you can’t ignore it. If you realize something negative about someone close to you, or you realize you’ve been heading down the wrong path, find the strength to let it go and open your heart to something better.
- You might want to spruce up your space.
Domesticity seems to come naturally to Cancer. You might want to use this weekend to clean up your house, clear out your fridge, wipe down the kitchen, vacuum the carpets…you know the drill! You also might want to go out of your way to decorate and bring a little autumn spirit into your house. Pick up some cute decorations and get creative! It’s not too early to get ready for the holidays, right?
- You might feel hurt easily.
Cancer feels everything deeply-they’re not so different from Scorpio in this aspect. They’re such a caring and nurturing sign that when someone doesn’t treat them the same way, it can feel like a deep personal offense. You might notice that you’re a bit more sensitive this weekend, so try to be reasonable about it-did someone really intend to hurt you, or did they not realize that you would be offended by their actions? Effective communication is essential at a time like this, because mixed messages can cause unintentional emotional pain.
