Cancer: Your Actor Horoscope for July 2017

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Happy birthday, Cancers! The charismatic combination of the Sun and Mars in your sign has been lighting up your personality and inspiring forward momentum. Hopefully you’re getting into some rooms! You’ve got three weeks of this until Mars and the Sun transit into your 2nd House of money and security July 20, giving you a more pragmatic mindset. You’ll also have more time at month’s end to ground exciting plans and introductions you’ve initiated.

Until then, focus on initiating and just be open to what comes of it. Having Mars in your sign is a great push, as we’re usually more energetic and confident with the red planet cheering us on. Wearing your opinion on your sleeve and even brandishing the more fiery side of your personality seems to be where your magic touch lies right now. Don’t get caught up being overly polite or sticking with something that doesn’t fill your heart. Mercury moves into Leo on July 5, joining the all-important North Node which is asking that you prioritize income and security. You’re already a pretty security-focused sign, so be open to cultivating emotional as well as financial security. Inquisitive Mercury is amplifying this theme and may be asking you act quickly on opportunities, new career leads and anything that breeds more comfort and that sense of well-being. You’ve got quite the independent streak right now, so honor that season. Sociable Venus is “hiding” backstage in your 12th House, asking that you surrender any rigid ideas around love and relationships and just go with the flow. You may find that you’re craving, or rather fed more fully by a spiritual connection or something that doesn’t solely depend on imperfect humans.
