As a sensitive Cancerian, you’ve a talent for spotting what others would like to do or have, but which they always put last. Now that you’re in a position to turn one of those hopes into reality, do it. True, in certain ways, it’s risky. Still, they’ll be delighted you made the effort.

After weeks of carefully sidestepping tricky issues, mostly to avoid pointless conflicts, suddenly you've become aware how much others are being influenced by your thinking and plans. Tempting as it is to discuss these, for now, say nothing. You'll soon realise how wise this somewhat detached approach is.

When powerful Mars, which accents focus, courage and fast action, moved into Cancer on 4 September, to remain until early November, you began a cycle of questioning, exploration and, in some cases, change. This means October is about, in part, shedding elements of the past and, equally, planning ahead. The secret? Ensure both arrangements and your thinking are flexible, enough you can try things out. Be bold. The more far-reaching your experiences, the wiser what you organise will be. 

During 2023 you rethought elements of your life, and often made dramatic, although often deeply personal, changes. You’re now benefitting. While often this is clear, other situations remain in flux. Being patient isn’t easy, but each month’s progress reassures you the wisdom of this strategy. A major reorganisation? For now, wait, watch and, when possible, declutter your life.
