What the Moon in Cancer is like

The Moon in Cancer is the Moon at home, and the door is on the latch.

The Moon is in Cancer from tomorrow at 7:54 PM until Sunday at 10:54 PM, when she enters Leo. Cancer is cardinal water and the Moon’s own sign, the one she rules, and astrologers say she is strongest here: her feelings run true, her instincts are trusted, and her care for what is hers is unembarrassed. These days are read as a season of the hearth, of the people one keeps and the food one makes for them, of memory and the shelter of the familiar. It is the Moon for nursing what needs nursing and for letting oneself be looked after, and the tradition notes that moods run deep here and pass like tides, which is to say they pass.
