Neptune can cause some rather fuzzy-minded communications, so at the outset of the year you must be careful not to allow this planet to disrupt, divert or muddy the waters of clear and concise expression. If there are misunderstandings, it is only due to this planet and your inability to articulate exactly what it is you want or feel inside.
When Venus moves to your zone of marriage and important relationships on the 9th of January, there is an opportunity to improve your relation- ships and to allow this planet to bring back some spice, social interaction and true love into the mix. Use whatever energies are available to enjoy and appreciate your relationships. Around the 20th, the Sun also brings you an opportunity to further your sexual relationships. But don’t let your marriage interfere with your work or other personal ideals. Draw a line in the sand.
There are important planetary combinations that occur around the 12th of March. One of those is the irritating and somewhat combative influence of Mars on your Sun sign. You need to be softer and less reactive in response to those you care about. You may be trying to get a message across but the manner in which you are doing it is wrong. Step back, listen and then, if necessary, take some time out before giving your answer. This will make a big difference to the quality of your relationships, I can assure you.
On the 26th of April, a lunar eclipse in your zone of love affairs throws up some very important questions for you. As I said at the outset, this will be a challenging year and the eclipses often bring to the fore many unresolved feelings, frustrations or other issues that need to be addressed in a more honest way. With Venus, the Sun and Mars transiting your zone of friendships in the opposite sign to this eclipse, there may be issues surrounding your loyalty to friends or theirs to you. These aspects of your life need to be managed and balanced more carefully.
The friendships mentioned above will also be in focus around the 25th of May and all through the period of June and July. The movement of Mars will bring out some past issues, such as hurts, resentments or even malicious gossip, which may affect you if you are not thick-skinned enough. After the 13th of July, however, there may be some improvement in these matters as Venus transits your zone of communication around the 22nd of July. Try to re-engage in discussions that can help calm the situation.
An important eclipse on the 19th of October and a solar eclipse on the 3rd of November in your zone of romance and love affairs reiterate the issues that have come up earlier in the year. By the 6th of December, when Saturn forms a favourable aspect to the Sun, you will be able to use clear and concise dialogue to produce a constructive outcome for all concerned. There won’t be too much passion, but at least you will have a workable model that will save your relationships.
Work and money
It’s always necessary to gain an understanding of all the universal laws of abundance and success when dealing with money. When fully present and creative, you inject the spirit of enthusiasm and love in what you do, be it work or play, and your aura or electromagnetic appeal becomes so much stronger. It is a force that attracts people, opportunities and, of course, more money. Your destiny and karma can be significantly influenced by the way you think and the attitude you foster. This will in turn impact upon your moneymaking powers.
Venus occupies your zone of working environment and schedules from the 2nd of January and is in a favourable aspect to your prestige sector. To make more money this year, you need to be careful about your scheduling, routine and time management. If you can use the months of January and February to assess the time at your disposal and what is important and what isn’t, then you will have a better opportunity of harnessing your money making powers throughout 2013.
Although your creative output may not be as prolific as in previous years, your level of concentration is quite intense and you can thank Saturn for that. Around the 24th of February there is an enhanced level of physical energy which, coupled with this mental focus, can help you achieve a tremendous amount.
March is an excellent period for you with the Sun, Venus and Mars all combining to fortify your professional position, giving you the edge over your competitors and possibly even offering you a leadership role. By showing how well you can perform under pressure, your output and self- control will be noted and this can be a prime opportunity for you to earn more money and take a step closer to your life-long professional goals.
For those of you who are keen to run an independent business, Venus (in your eleventh zone of profits, along with the Sun, between the 15th and the 20th of April) herald a time when you can expect greater cash flow. The creative block that you had may also be released sometime towards the end of April.
Money should be monitored when Venus enters your twelfth zone of expenses around the 10th of May. The solar eclipse and the lunar eclipse in the same month, between the 10th and the 25th, show that profits, the associates you keep and the debt that you have accumulated, will all bear down upon you, and you need to shoulder these responsibilities with a little more clarity. Let’s rely on Saturn for that.
Look to your assets as a means of earning more money after August. Venus in your zone of property and real estate after the 17th, and the Sun moving through the same zone around the 23rd of September, indicate that this is an area that you may have overlooked. The lunar eclipse in Aries, your career sector, on the 19th of October also shows that you may have overlooked some creative and skilful aspects of your business acumen that might now be useful in increasing your salary and prospects, or even gaining a new position within the company you work.
Industriousness, stamina and courage, as well as physical strength, are needed in the last month of the year. Be careful not to let emotional problems on the home front distract you from finishing the work you have set for yourself. In particular, the period of the 8th up until the 18th of December could be stressful, so take the appropriate time out on weekends to recharge your batteries for the best financial results.
Karma, luck and meditation
Spirituality is a misunderstood term, which is why I need to explain to you that in 2013 you can be spiritual without sitting cross-legged staring at your navel or kneeling in front of an altar. For you, Cancer, spirituality in the coming twelve months signifies a dynamic, physical and focused attention on the responsibilities and duties of your life. By taking up these responsibilities with love, dedication and a sense of purpose, you can experience not only satisfaction in your outer life, but a deep sense of spiritual satisfaction and personal evolution as well.
Saturn, the planet of Karma, moves through your zone of future activities with the North Node, the planet that signifies karmic fruits of action. If many of your past actions have been performed in a spirit of love and understanding, you will reap the benefits. This can be strongly expected after Mars enters its favourable aspect with Neptune in your zone of past karma on the 27th of April. Your desire for good things may start to manifest at this time.
Jupiter, the natural significator of spirituality and good karma, enters your Sun sign on the 26th of June for the first time in twelve years. This is an important milestone in your development for the future. There is also a combined influence of Mars, your future karma planet, entering the career zone. Big things can happen to you in this area of your life, but be careful not to go too far too soon. Keep a level head. Remember that humility is the fuel that accelerates your spiritual growth.
Jupiter and Mars once again favourably influence you spirituality and luck on the 18th and the 21st of July. The middle part of the year therefore brings to the fore a dynamic interest in spirituality, psychic phenomena and curiosity about your future karma.
The final part of the year is punctuated with insights into how you can satisfy yourself spiritually. This is again shown by the numerous positive aspects from Mars, the dynamic planet of action, on the 30th of September, the 15th of October and the 15th and 20th of November. These are periods when you will feel a dynamic rush of energy to do things in the spirit of love and understanding.
The fourth zone of your horoscope has a lot to do with personal satisfaction. When Mars enters this zone on the 8th of December, you will be challenged to keep your peace amidst a rowdy crowd of relatives. If you can do this, you will feel yourself edging towards a new spiritual paradigm once again.
