April 2023

Ace of Swords: Cancer, it seems this month you'll have the opportunity to start new conversations that will get the ball rolling again. You may have been feeling stuck or stagnant over the last few months, but you’re still not aware of how quickly (and positively) things can change. And I see big changes happening in April!

You are being guided toward a new lifestyle, one that you dreamt about years back. The thing is, you needed the right people and perspective in order to truly enjoy all that is coming your way. There is a message of “windfalls” occurring here. This means you could meet new work or personal connections that have the potential to change your life in the most blessed way. So let go of pessimistic or limiting thoughts that tell you things are not going to ever change—because they will and they are. Prove to yourself how good your life can truly get this month.

March 2023

Five of Pentacles: Cancer, I see this month being one of overcoming adversity and allowing yourself to shine through the darkness. If you are currently struggling to feel connected to those around you, March may be a month when you have to pick yourself up by your bootstraps and make amends; the season of change that is upon you. Regardless of how long someone has been in your life, you are going to have to bring everyone and every potential outcome to the table in order to make a final call on who is coming with you down your destined path and who you must leave behind. Think about what this chapter of your life is meant to represent, Cancer. Are you ready to level up and experience more out of life? Or is this chapter more about fun, light-heartedness, and doing more of the same? You must get brutally honest with yourself on whether you are outgrowing those around you, or if you yourself are being outgrown. From this space of recognition, you can take the proper steps forward.

The Five of Pentacles in the Tarot represents feelings of being left out in the cold, but you have to remember that you also have free will. It is not necessary for you to suffer; so if you do not want to feel isolated and distraught, the month of March may be one for you to make changes, take giant leaps of faith, and step up to the plate in order to avoid feelings of isolation and desperation on your quest for fulfillment. You cannot do the same thing over and over and expect different results.

February 2023

Queen of Pentacles: What a lovely way to start off a new year, Cancer! I see February being a month filled with abundance in all forms for you. If you were able to take time over the last few months to recalibrate what your goals and priorities are, you may now find that life is meeting you with opportunities to turn those dreams into reality. If you can fully sever the ties to your past that no longer serve you, the universe will bless you in unimaginable ways this month. I see trips, celebrations, progress, or financial influxes for you. 

However, it is your job to stay level-headed and release the feeling that you know better than everyone else. If you find yourself getting frustrated with friends, colleagues, or family members that seem “behind,” this will be a vital month for you to release judgment and step into a deeper state of compassion. It seems like a deeply rooted judgment of self is where your judgment of others stems from. Now is the time to heal this inner part of yourself so you can finally view the world with clear eyes. The theme of February for you is reparenting: Ask yourself what you wished you received more of as a child, then start to gift yourself with these acts of love and kindness. Take yourself for ice cream in the middle of the day, have a sleepover with your friends, or watch an old cartoon you used to love. Whatever it is, the affection that you show to yourself this month will go a long way.

January 2023

Ace of Wands: Cancer, this month looks jam-packed with memories that are coming from exciting new adventures. Let yourself live in a state of free-fall in January and watch how perfectly the universe allows it all to fall into place. In other words, you don’t have to be so concerned with controlling how each and every aspect of your life is going in order for it to turn out alright. And the kicker? It’s going to turn out better than ever once you surrender! 

So allow your heart to stay cracked wide open in January and know that sometimes the most mundane of things can bring you intense amounts of joy if you allow yourself to relax into the moment. This could mean revamping your home, bringing life back into your relationship, or doing something new with the same group of friends. It doesn’t take a complete switch-up to be happy, Cancer. Sometimes it’s just working with what you’ve got in new ways.
