Cancer Monthly Horoscope

Siblings, Cousins, Short Journeys, the Internet

The Third House of your chart is ruled by Virgo, and it contains a number of different life areas to manage in September. Your brother, sister and/or cousin is a likely area of change or delay, as what was in motion in August now alters course. Mercury actually rules the Third House in astrology so when we see him retrograde (the cycle began on August 8th and runs until September 30th, 2023) you can assume cancellation or stop-start with the plans. This may have been as basic as your brother flying from America to visit you in England. It may be more complex, depending on your natal chart.

Short journeys rather than long-haul international flights are also the focus with this cycle in September. We include commuting in that. If you are one of those Cancerians who also has Virgo factors in her or his natal chart, there are likely to be ongoing questions about the car or the bus, the tram or the domestic flights. As this cycle does not end until the final loop on Saturday, September 30th, have a back-up plan now. There may be a strike or extreme weather for example.

You are ruled by the Moon, so the New Moon on Friday, September 15th, 2023, is an important new beginning, both with siblings and/or cousins, but also your commute or regional travel agenda. You’re still not quite there with a smooth plan, though, so just have a flexible idea that can be tailored to fit. I don’t need to tell you we are in the middle of yet another COVID-19 outbreak with a different variant and of course, that can scupper plans at a distance.

Elon Musk

Finally, Cancer, the Third House of your chart, ruled by Virgo, is very much about the internet, the media, publishing and all communication. This can go from core issues like hearing, speech and writing – to more general concerns like Twitter (X) and basic computing. It is a very brave woman or man who launches anything on Mercury Retrograde and of course your fellow Cancerian Elon Musk decided to rename Twitter on this transit. No wonder it’s not sticking.

The Sun as well as Mercury in your Third House of internet will plainly highlight what has to change. Once the cycle has finished at the end of the month (beware rookie astrologers who tell you it started on August 23rd and finishes on September 15th, 2023) everything will be where it should be! Having gone around in circles with a website (for example) you will end up somewhere that’s going to last.
