You’re at the end of a work path you’ve been walking for two years. The good news is career will never be this torturous again and you love your new life. And this month, friends and professional colleagues will help you the most. Life partners not so much, involved with their own issues and wanting to call all the shots. This has been a particularly intense time for everyone. Oppositions have been causing so much tension that explosions – as well as implosions – have been felt everywhere. Love partners and love interests have been particularly affected. And are so most around May 5, when the lunar eclipse full Moon in Scorpio strikes. (It will not be a calm time. I urge you to stay inside and stay comfy that Friday night.) Passions, including anger, will be incited.
But with all the Taurean energy at play the rest of early May, the universe will ask you to embrace the real world, making it the perfect time to sign up for a class, check out a new local restaurant, or head to yoga.
And friends will go out of their way to help. You have a phenomenal wealth of support now in your house of friends.
In your social eleventh house you have:
Shining powerhouse Sun
The current Taurus Moon
Lucky and profitable Jupiter
Brilliant thought and speech planet Mercury (in retrograde until May 14)
A new beginnings Moon Friday, May 19
Your inner flame asteroid Vesta
Adoring Juno
And still –
Genius weird sudden Uranus, causing change most unexpectedly
And your eleventh house, traditionally ruled by idealistic Aquarius, rules:
Your community
Career contacts and colleagues
Friends
Your ideals and hopes
Your wildest dreams
How you do or don’t make the world a better place
Groups and how you relate to being in them
Clubs
Associates
Peer group pressure
The advice you get — for good or ill
Advisers
The social circles you move in
Your income from your main profession
The boss’s money
Other people’s children
“The universe is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow stronger.” (Scorpio Eden Phillpotts.) See, you are just waiting for others to catch up with your vision. And maybe for a partner to fully believe you.
Talk it out.
Remember: Everything is negotiable! You are standing on your own wheel of fortune – and it can turn either way, any way. You yourself change back and forth. Your life is in change.
In your work, you need to negotiate for better pay and put your terms clearly forward. This is a good time for you to be heard. A new avenue opens up for you through professional contacts under the new Moon on Friday, May 19. This is a good bonus – take it! In a relationship, you probably feel like you’re still proving yourself at some level – and that’s exhausting to say the least. There’s plenty of loving in May for the crab. Some of you are falling in love again, and I’m here to tell you it’s okay, the water’s fine, have a little faith and jump in!
If you’re single, you could very well meet that special someone. If you’re attached, a transformation will occur with your mate and possibly with your children as well. Do not worry, dear Crab, but go with the flow!
Cancerians are more affected by lunar eclipses than any other sign as your ruler is the Moon.
Here are a few things you can do to make this time easier for yourself:
– Don’t repress what you are feeling – breathe into it, and it will be fine.
– Write down what’s going on. Even if you don’t know what’s going on! When you write stuff down, the paper or computer screen makes sense of it – I swear by it.
The very act of writing also lets light into that part of you that is hurt or closed up, and essentially creates a healing.
– Remember to read your Jupiter sign horoscope, for what do do to make you luckiest and most successful in the world at large. For example, if you are Cancer Sun with Gemini Jupiter, make sure you read Gemini’s horoscope as well as Cancer.
– For your essential inner needs, read your Moon sign horoscope. For example, if you are Cancer Sun with Taurus Moon, then read the Taurus horoscope too.
You may decide to travel this May, and this would be terrific. Because of the activity right now in your unconscious – from interesting dreams to borderline compulsive worry – a trip away would be just what the doctor ordered.
And you will have truly given a gift to the world, of which you (and your mother) can be very, very proud.
For as much as you love being holed up in your own world of privacy you must get out in the world with your talents now. There are simply too many opportunities on your career path to miss! It is honestly astounding, dear Cancer.
Want a new job or position? Ask your friends and professional colleagues. Approach people in positions of power who can help you. They are out there. And this means in the next three weeks. Strike while the iron is hot – do not wait!
Even people who were not receptive to you in the past will be so now. So try again!
Remember this bit of wisdom from your fellow Cancerian, the awesome Nelson Mandela: Resentment is like taking poison and hoping your enemy will die.
However cautious you may be feeling, however life may have beaten you down in the past, however much frustration you’ve experienced with others, know that people will be extremely receptive to you now and you will not encounter the problems you have had to face from before. You can expect to make a new friend or professional association in May’s second week with the new Moon coming up in your eleventh house May 19. Work on cultivating this relationship!
Your luck will occur suddenly and without warning so be super vigilant about seizing an opportunity right away. Do not wait on it, hem and haw, or try to plan ahead so much that you deprive yourself of the present moment.
Oh, how you love to plan and think of the future…
Whatever work you have been doing, expect it to change – for the better, dear Cancer. By late June you will be reaping in the rewards by the bucketful! The outcome is incredibly positive – a vast improvement over what you have known – so you will be very happy.
The only party pooper part of your horoscope this month regards a health problem, either yours or someone close to you. Balance yourself, particularly in terms of your health, as your life goes through all these changes. Committing yourself to a consistent program of diet and exercise is more important now than ever.
As far as your finances, another happy ending. Finally the fog is lifted from your area of shared resources, and everything is much clearer with a partner with whom you share monies.
This partner can be your significant other, your business partner, a merger, family, or a company which pays you.
It’s all up to you, Cancer. Remember, the stars impel, they don’t compel. They give you the opportunities such as you will have this month and it is up to you to seize them.
Is it possible you could stay comfy in the old way, a crab secure in its shell, doing business as usual, and miss out on these opportunities? Of course it is! But –
I urge you to make the best choice for your life and your future. Risk the unknown. It is already here.
Happy May, Awesome Cancer! I can’t wait to read you!

I’d catch the buds just bursting out;
And up from every hidden root
Would jump a tiny slender shoot;
I wonder how seeds learn the way,
They always know the very day—
The pretty, happy first of May.
– The First of May by Annette Wynne
