Tame your inner diva! With the moon facing off against stern Saturn this Friday youre at risk of acting like a dictator. Although you stand strong behind your opinions and have no qualms about defending them, you need to be conscious of your delivery. Being pushy and preachy about your convictions will only give you a reputation for being a dominating bully. Take it down a notch (or three), or people will just tune you out and shut you down. The key is compromise, Cancer. No one said it will be easy but its the only way to prevent a group breakdown. You dont need to concede completely, but when youre willing to meet others halfway a solution can be found. On Friday night and Saturday, shake up routine and try a new scene on for size. And while youre at it, dip your toe into a completely different pond instead of sticking to safe waters. On Saturday, engage in a little social experimentation. Dont be afraid to mix and match the peeps with whom you normally socialize separately. You could be pleasantly surprised to see how well your friends from pottery class get on with your comrades from that highbrow book club. Its also a great day for some fitness fun. Rally your pals together for a powerwalk through the park, a Kundalini yoga class, or even give a group salsa class a whirl. On Sunday, speak your truth! Communicator Mercury has been backstroking through your candid ninth house for the last three weeks, which has often left you tongue-tied. The knots dissolve today as Mercury resumes forward motion again, giving you the green light to say whats on your mind. Self-censorship begone!

General Characteristics of Cancer

Sensitive Cancer is ruled by the ever-changing Moon, and your moods go through many cycles. You're intuitive and nurturing, even psychic. Pay attention to your dreams, especially near a Full Moon. You are sensitive and loyal, with a ready shoulder to cry on. Cancer loves to get domestic, serving your friends and family home-baked goodies and tea. When you get moody, you need to be comforted, or else just left alone. Like a crab, you can cling -- or pinch -- when you feel threatened or vulnerable. And thrifty Cancers can pinch pennies just as tightly. (Of course, you also love to spend! It's a mood thing.) To make life easier, surround yourself with comfort: a cozy sweater, a favorite book, trusted friends, and a stash of your favorite goodies. Cancers are close to their moms, so keep yours on speed-dial and call her when you're down. You may be an unofficial mom to everyone in your life, too. Taking care of kids, friends, and pets can keep your spirits high.
