Overview

The main reading

Cancer, many times, you can be sensitive to small matters that others may find trivial. But your loved ones should understand not to instigate you with them. The Moon in Libra, will make you feel irritated or disappointed with your partner’s behaviour today as he again broaches the same subject that brings your hackles up. If he/she is just doing it for the sake of fun, stop getting provoked. If this is something that needs discussion and you are repeatedly sweeping it under the carpet, then it is time you sit down to sort it out and get it out of the way, once and for all. Forest green is your lucky colour today. 10:00 am - 11:00 am is a good phase for you to plan and execute tasks of importance.

Love

Romance and relationships

If recently you received a surprising proposal from a friend, take this time to think this proposal through very carefully. Don`t make hasty decisions as this option has come to you out of the blue. Don`t be afraid to ask for some time to consider this proposal and discuss the matter over with your friends and family.
