Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Your February Horoscope by Susan Miller
Are you tired of working away in the shadows, with too little praise, overworked and under-paid? If so, Cancer, you are going to LOVE the turn of events that February is poised to bring about. With just a little effort, you can harness the energy on tap and use it to your advantage, dear Cancer. Mars, that great ball of power, is shining like a beacon at the pinnacle of your chart, sure to help you fulfill your strongest ambitions. Mars will be bringing you in contact with influential people who will want to know more about you and help you advance. Cancers in the process of a new business launch (self-owned), you too will be helped by this powerfully encouraging trend. Cancer is often happiest when self-employed, but many end up doing no more than wishing for a role all their own; with Aries on the top point of your career, you can now put the pieces of your puzzle together and prepare to launch your business.
You have waited two years for this kind of career clout. Mars has not been in your 10th sector of fame since February-March 2000. Now that this key planet has arrived, events may unfold so fast that at times it will feel like a dream. Of course, you have to be worthy of the job you want; I know you've been working hard so I see no reason why you shouldn't be. Enough of this no-frills life! It is time to live!
Mars, the great energy planet, entered your 10th sector of career status, promotion, and recognition last month. If you're wondering why nothing happened then, it's because Mercury was retrograde. That hampered your progress, as Mercury retrograde tends to delay talks and cause miscommunication. Now Mercury turns direct on February 8, which means the period of February 8-28 will be an absolutely fantastic time for you to climb the ladder of success. On March 1, Mars will move out of this key career sector, not to come back to your 10th sector for another two years. You must use this month's golden career period to the max, dear Cancer, or you'll miss out on what is rightfully yours.
There are a two career days that should show you just how far you've come professionally. The breakthroughs you experience on these days just may make you jump for joy. Here they are: Monday, February 11 will be a sensational day for a job interview with a high level boss, as Mars will be working with mighty Pluto on your behalf. Pluto's presence suggests you may be in talks with a very large, Fortune 500-type company or even the Government, as a potential client or employer. Friday, February 22 brings even better surprises, when it seems likely you will get a plum assignment. There may be even a nice bonus, perk package, or a commission offered. Success will come out-of-the-blue! Isn't this delicious news, dear Cancer? Are you excited? You should be! You must investigate all opportunities to advance at work. I'll say it again: This is your best month of the year for professional gains.
Along a parallel track, money talks will carry on in the background, and hold unusual promise for you to score a remarkable victory. This is some month, isn't it? Your Midas touch with financial matters will become apparent just after the new moon on February 12, and in the two weeks that follow. The sector that is emphasized, however, is not your 2nd sector of salary, raises, and possessions, but your 8th sector of bonuses, commissions, inheritances, credit, and loans (including money you owe others, and money owed to you). This is where your attention should be focused.
You may reshuffle your investment or retirement portfolio if you have one, or if you don't have a retirement account, you may decide to open one now. It's a good time to negotiate a commission or royalty deal, or file your taxes in advance. If you need financial backing for your education or business, or need a mortgage to buy a new house, it seems to be there for you, dear Cancer. If you are in the process of a division of property in a divorce or the closing of a business, the second half of February will be your time to act, and settle things for good. This 8th sector is the part of the chart where BIG ideas are funded. Seek and you shall find!
Financially, February 13 could be a wonder day, filled with surprises, twists and turns that keep you smiling. I assume, by the looks of your chart, that these will be good surprises, but, of course, there are no guarantees. You could have a chance at a raffle ticket that day, although I must say, with Uranus involved things could go either way. If you buy a charity raffle, your money will do well for someone, no matter how things go.
Now let's talk about LOVE! Ever since the December 30 eclipse, you've been much more serious about your relationship. Now, as Valentine's Day approaches, you can't help but wonder, "Will it be just a big wash?" or "Might it be a big, beautiful day filled with kisses, gifts, candlelight, and more?" Well, guess what — this year, finally, it's going to be GREAT!
The good news is that Valentine's Day will be MUCH better than last year's "day for lovers" — if you have a sweetie in your life, this may be a banner day. If you are a woman, you may want to pick up some pretty lingerie, and if you are a guy, well, you should buy her some. The moon and tender Venus will be in Pisces. And there's more! Jupiter will contacting this perfectly positioned Venus to create a thrilling vibration. Oh, Cancer, this bodes very, very well for you! With so many planets in your 8th sector, you will feel sexy and more vibrant than ever.
You MUST plan something out of the ordinary to celebrate your love. You of all signs are a master at romance. If money is tight, don't assume it would take a lot to make this day memorable. All you would need is some imagination and a big heart which, as a Cancer, you possess in abundance. Someone in your life has hopes to make this evening special with you, dear Cancer, so don't drop the ball — run with it!
Pluto is ruler of your sector of true love and new love. Mark my words, with this planet's activity this month, there are other important days for romance: mark down February 5, when the Sun and Pluto exchange greetings. Wow! This day should be strong, with great chemistry in the air. Single? This is a perfect night to test your luck in the game of love.
February 11, mentioned earlier as a super day for your career, should also be good for meeting someone new or enjoying established love. I love this day, sure to be filled with electricity!
What are your best weekend date nights? It's almost a tie: February 16-17 and February 23-24 should both be superb. I will admit that the second weekend, February 23-24, is the better of the two, for by then, the Sun will have moved into gentle, fellow water-sign Pisces, and Jupiter will send a gorgeous beam to that Sun. If you could fly away with your sweetie (or should I say sail away?), you would have a divine time. Further, the moon will be in Cancer that weekend! Yes, the last weekend of the month certainly has the edge for fun and love. Quick, think of somewhere you could spin an enchanting memory in the name of love! Choose a place you have never been, that you can discover together.
If you are in an established relationship, Saturn, the planet ruling your 7th sector of committed love, will go direct on February 7, for the first time in months. Saturn will STAY in direct, positive mode until mid-October, which will give you lots of time to make steady progress with someone special. If you have been waiting for your partner to commit, you may see a breakthrough now. All partnership issues advance at this time; news could come in the days surrounding February 7. Usually when a big planet like Saturn bolts forward, developments are immediately noticeable. Although most people see progress in the areas of engagement or marriage, it can be applied in business collaborations too. Either way, things are looking up!
As mentioned earlier, travel will form a powerful theme in your chart, about to become even more significant next month. At the full moon on February 27, you take a short distance jaunt. You may choose to take a road trip to a nearby city or town. This full moon is in a tough angle to Saturn, operative plus or minus three days form the date it occurs, so there seems to be some work to do or obligation to fulfill on this trip. Perhaps its purpose is business — for your boss, or to bring a conclusion to certain family issues. The pace at the office will pick up at this full moon. You may have a contract to look over or a document to finish. You will probably have many meetings and phone calls due, and will have to keep track of all the details that will bombard you. Be sharp, or you'll forget something!
Some Cancers will have difficulty with family members at this time, such as concern about a stepchild or one of your own children, a sibling, or cousin. I don't think it's too serious, just temporary. Those of you who were born on or near June 30 will benefit most from this February 27 full moon. As said, next month you will have lots of opportunities to travel further afield, but until then, concentrate as much as possible on your career and that ascent up the ladder of success. The time frame for advancement is short, but the chance you have to make leaps and bounds is a golden one. Take it and work it for all it is worth!
Summary:
Your finances will be the source of much buzz in your life and could bring reason to celebrate, especially near February 5 when a very powerful authority figure will give you a leg up. After the new moon on February 12, long-term security may just be within reach. Your career will blaze forth. With Mars in a strong position to help, you should receive exciting new proposals — the BEST you will see all year. Say yes to one by month's end. You can make impressive strides if you play your cards right. A small business launch or a well-considered career risk would be a perfect way to use these upbeat vibrations. The happy sound of coins jingling in your pocket could have you humming a happy tune in the two weeks that follow the new moon on February 12.
Valentine's Day this year will be extra special, and with Saturn about to speed up, your relationship should become far more supportive. With four planets in your 8th sector, you will feel frisky and sexy — hopefully, your partner will be, too!
Mark down the weekends of February 16-17 and February 23-24 as perfect for travel. The full moon brings lots of activity at the office, and possibly a short trip with a very specific objective. A sister or brother, cousin, child, or stepchild may be on your mind, and you may be called on to mediate. This moon favors you, and you will find the right touch.
Never forget that this month is mainly about money and career progress, peppered with fun and love along the way. If you act quickly and decisively, you will be quite excited about what you achieve by the time March rolls in!
