CANCER (June 20 – July 21)
Venus in Scorpio from September 22d until October 17th means that you’ll be attracting more Sturm und Drang than you want to deal with – and that’s saying a lot given your nurturing nature. Loved ones are battling inner demons, friends are wrestling with life-and-death issues, and even co-workers are feeling overwhelmed by their personal existential crises. You want to be there for them but honestly you’ve been through some heavy stuff lately and you could use a break. That may be easier said than done as you try to negotiate this psychic minefield, but if you politely change the subject then hopefully they’ll follow suit.
