Overview

The main reading

Moon in Cancer is making you hopeful and optimistic today, dear Cancer. If you are working, you can expect to add some creative flair in your work as you could be feeling wonderful and inspired. You may be charged up for some mission or purpose be it personal or professional. Today is strong for dreaming and connecting with your ideas, suggest Astroyogi astrologers. Your luckiest hour of the day lies between 11 am and 12 pm so plan things accordingly. Purple is your lucky color for the day.

Love

Romance and relationships

Today you will feel like chucking aside all your responsibilities and just spending some romantic time with your partner. You may feel like seeing an afternoon movie, or having a romantic dinner - anything to get away from the daily routine. Though normally you can`t play hooky from life like this, you can make an exception for today in order to blow off steam and reconnect with your loved one.

Career

Work and ambition

Today may be quite frustrating on the work front, as small but unpredictable problems crop up repeatedly. You may find that your computer crashes or there is a power outage, all of which keep you from making progress on your work. Try to just take it in stride today as these problems are outside of your control. Make sure you save all your important documents and take a back up today.

Finance

Money and resources

If you travel for work you are likely to be asked to go on an overseas assignment today. This might come as a surprise to you. Unfortunately, you can expect your trip will not be quite as fruitful as you had hoped. You should expect the proposals that come from this trip to falter at some point. Therefore, you should not get your hopes too high for the prospects of this venture.

Health

Body and energy

You need to be careful while sitting as carelessness on your part could invite back problems. It is better to develop a habit of always sitting in a good posture. It`ll not only improve your health and confidence but also your work performance. Also, don`t cut down on your sleep. You need to keep in mind that not getting enough sleep could weaken the immune system and impair the mental faculties.
