Overview

The main reading

Dear Cancer, with the Moon moving into Sagittarius, today is the day where you decide on things that you can control and the things that you cannot control. Knowing the difference between the things in and out of your control will help you make better decisions in life, say Astroyogi astrologers. You need to face your problems head-on and resolve them with a cool head. The hour between 10 am and 11 am will be good for you today. Burgundy red is your lucky color for the day.

Love

Romance and relationships

You can impress someone in a significant manner today. Getting their attention may be difficult at first, but once you get it they, will be all eyes and ears. Don`t waste this moment. This may just be a chance of a lifetime!

Career

Work and ambition

If you have been unemployed recently, then the planets have been working on your behalf to bring that important opportunity your way. Keep the faith, and keep your eyes open for the direction where the job may be coming from. It may be in a place you haven`t looked yet!

Finance

Money and resources

Today is a day you will be thinking of indulging yourself in something luxurious. You are doing very well with your finances right now. Perhaps jewellery is on your mind, if not something even more extravagant? You can pamper yourself today, but be sure not to go overboard and break the bank. You are quite practical, but still love the finer things in life. Maintain this important balance!

Health

Body and energy

There are indications that today you may suffer from some anxiety. These irrational thoughts would evoke a strong degree of anxiety putting you under a lot of pressure. To tackle this you`ll have to keep in mind that these are irrational and you must dismiss them whenever they occur. Failure on your part would not only cause a significant amount of distress but could even disturb your social life.
