Cancer
Jun 21 - Jul 22Aug 17, 2026 to Aug 23, 2026
This week is deeply emotional and highly transformative for the sign of Cancer. Mars is currently moving through your sign bringing a lot of strong physical energy and fiery feelings. On August 17 Mars forms a tough square with Neptune which will make you feel confused and easily overwhelmed by your emotions. You must be careful not to jump to conclusions on this day. Later on August 17 the Moon which is your ruling planet enters the deep waters of Scorpio. This makes your intuition incredibly sharp. When the First Quarter Moon happens in Scorpio on August 20 you will feel a powerful push to take control of your life and eliminate toxic habits. The week ends with a shift on August 23 when the Sun enters Virgo helping Cancer focus on simple tasks and practical daily routines.

Beware of
Aries
Aries is the absolute worst match for you right now because their aggressive and fast paced nature will heavily disturb your inner peace. Mars is currently traveling in your sign of Cancer and on August 17 it squares Neptune. This makes you want to retreat into your shell and heal softly. However Aries is ruled by Mars and they will push you to take bold action way before you are truly ready. Their blunt words will feel like harsh attacks on your sensitive feelings. When the Moon enters Capricorn on August 22 relationship pressures will build up and an Aries will only make you feel more stressed and heavily rushed. They do not have the patience to sit with your emotions and you do not have the energy to deal with their constant demands. Protect your soft heart by avoiding Aries entirely and spending time alone or with more gentle people.
