6 February

Chin up, Cancer. You always have a way of fixing things--or finding someone to fix things for you.

Getting to the nitty gritty of any situation has always been your specialty but be aware that sometimes your imagination truly gets the better of you. The New Moon on 8^th February brings a time to investigate the resources you share with other people. Who is managing your money and why aren’t you more in control of it? The answer to this question will become increasingly clear as the month goes on—and eventually you will have to find the strength to put things in the order that you like. The Full Moon on the 22^nd February could bring arguments over these issues if the problem is put aside as a means to preserve the peace: have it out sooner rather than later. The month ends with clearer ideas of the direction you should be taking, increased confidence in your abilities and the wisdom to avoid finding yourself in such a submissive position again.
