Overview

The main reading

Dear Cancer, Moon present in Taurus may make some of you feel overwhelmed with your personal needs and emotions.

Instead just try to slow down and make necessary adjustments and you will be back to feeling normal, say Astroyogi astrologers. This is the time for recognizing the need for a positive change. Plan anything of high importance between 2:30 pm and 4 pm for optimal results. Wearing blue will bring you good luck and positive energy.
