Cancer Monthly Horoscope for May 2008

Cancer Monthly Horoscope for May 2008

Mixed Bag
It's a mixed bag this month. With the Sun in Taurus, friends, groups and special projects will feature. However, on May 2nd, Mercury gives things a tweak as he moves into Gemini then clashes with Saturn in Virgo. Decisions will be demanding or require weighty consideration. Prepare to deal with delay, negotiate with a critical authority or play one side against another. You'll return to the scene of a past idea to put it into operation, but be ready for some 'out of the blue' problems with travel or communication. Does equipment need servicing? If so, do so!

As Saturn moves forward on May 3rd, catch up on outstanding business before the month ends and Mercury turns reverse. May 5th brings the New Moon in Taurus, stimulating new associates or a development with a crucial venture. With mystic Neptune hovering on the Lunar North Node, you'll be seeking money or putting it to work. Creative ventures and joint efforts with creative people will be favoured. Be smart about who you get involved with, for not everyone will be honest.

A withdrawal affects partners or close associates as Jupiter turns retrograde on May 9th. Someone may lose interest or be off. A lawyer or an expert will be absent when needed. Mars fires the focus on money as he enters Leo on May 9th. You'll get the cash you want by dint of your efforts. You'll deal with feisty or energetic males over money. May 11th will bring confusion and a break or separation. Money will again feature and you'll change contacts or canoes, midstream. Watch May 18th for deception.

May 20th brings a Full Moon in Scorpio, a Blue Moon that will shine a light on your path. Romance or lifestyle issues will feature, and children or lovers will be in the frame. The Sun rolls into Gemini on May 20th, urging you to watch and wait as you work behind the scenes, for not everyone around you means what they say. Confusion will strike on May 26th. Double check communications!

Mercury Retrograde
Mercury plays the trickster, moving to Gemini on May 2nd, then clashing with Saturn. Be ready for delays with meetings, arrangements, travel or communications. You will have to negotiate with a critical or obstructive authority. You need to make a hard decision, but feel unable to do so. May 24th sees Mercury clash with Uranus, then turn retrograde on May 26th. There'll be surprises or 'out of the blue' events. You won't get what you're waiting for, but you will get a verbal spray or the wrong end of the stick. Watch for problems with equipment or travel.

Spiralling Inward
Venus is in Taurus, focusing on friends and groups with social, romantic or economic activity. Lock into support networks. Search for new associates but be canny as to who you trust. Be prepared for a split with old ones. Unusual people or situations emerge on May 17th. Venus enters Gemini on May 24th, focusing on inner life, social withdrawal or secret liaisons. You'll spend time alone or be troubled by delay as Venus clashes with Saturn. Concerns arise with work or health in daily life. You'll need to care for someone else, or for yourself.

Fresh Impetus
Mars will bring fresh impetus to finance as he rolls into Leo on May 9th. There'll be a spurt of energy or a new line of action. You may deal with feisty or energetic individuals over money, males especially. You will purchase possessions, or have attacks of possessiveness. You can advance your finances through direct action, or the determined pursuit of achievable goals. This is not a time for 'pie in the sky'. If you can get your hands on it, don't waste your efforts.
