Cancer Horoscope for August 2014

This is another intensely involving month for you Cancer, as you gather your resources for your next big adventure. You feel unbounded enthusiasm for putting yourself forward with your personal approach and your own set of values. Relationship is on your mind, and you feel a powerful inclination there although held back from totally drastic action. You are stepping out into new career affinities, an area that has been on something of a roller-coaster ride for you lately. Your self-expression is blossoming in a thoughtful way that allows you to make haste slowly. The ongoing transformation of your partnering energy is far from complete, and yet the view from your current plateau might serve to let you know how far you are already come along your chosen track, which you are refining in the current monthly timeframe.

As the month begins, you are reveling in the big energy of the recent New Moon from the last weekend of July. Enjoying the delights of the material realm might currently be high on your priority list, because expansive Jupiter was also conjunct this potent Leo configuration, corresponding to your second sector of resources and finances. You could find yourself relishing watching your money investments grow, eating delicious food, or dancing all night long. You are having an extravagant moment, and might as well enjoy it! Of course, there is the obvious caution against going overboard, or getting lost in the extravagance and over-indulging. Yet by leaving at least a finger or two on the pulse of moderation, you may find healthy enjoyment in the gifts of great abundance coming your way over the course of a decidedly fruitful monthly cycle.

With Mars in square to Jupiter at the New Moon, and residing in your sector of self-expression, you also have ample energy for creativity, movement and articulating your own unique point of view to the world around you. It is important for you to find an outlet for the intense energy coursing through your sensitive Cancerian disposition, as bottling it could prove unhealthy and may result in untimely outbursts of emotion. There is a fiery theme present in these present configurations, one that doesn't always sit very well with the watery, soft nature of your sign, so that it is wise to treat yourself and everyone else with a degree of gentleness now.

While you are brimming with enthusiasm, there is also a tension between fully inhabiting your own identity, versus connecting deeply with a partner or a potential mate. It might seem as though these two areas of life feel incompatible, as the continuing shift in your approach to relationship itself is still transforming. This could be quite challenging, especially in comparison to the joy you are finding in yourself. You are taking others into account as well as your own viewpoint, and you must find the right balance for you. As you nestle into a greater sense of simply being at home in your own soul, and choose to allow important others their place in your life as well, it may become crucial for you to find ways to authentically and artistically express yourself.

This month is full of excitement, and yet there is also the renewed presence in your solar chart of Chiron, the wounded healer archetype. Any wounds you have around falling short of your lofty aspirations for yourself might now be accessed through exploring your own creativity. In moving through these places that are hurting from past experience, you could find a poignant opportunity to implement wisdom by giving yourself the acceptance and love that you might have felt were missing in the past. Mantras, journaling, dance, or other forms of expressive art could be extremely useful for you in this endeavor, for it is crucial to learn to love yourself before you can fully receive love from another.

With trickster energy of Uranus emphasized in your career sector, your professional focus is also extreme for you, and has many facets to it, as well as twists and turns along the way. Over the course of an intense and interesting month, you could find unexpected enlightenment in the strangest of places. Visions and goals where your career is concerned can also benefit by becoming grounded in the simple nuts and bolts of life. Your ability to consider practical matters is key, while simultaneously and equally being able to tap into your creative juices. If anything stands in your way now, it probably won't for long, as your drive to move forward is strong, and your ability to take right action on a moment-to-moment basis in your own style is becoming more developed and evolved.
