What is today's Cancer horoscope?

Overview
There's tide work happening today, Cancer; what's washing up is meant to be noticed. Today's tension is partner-shaped — the conversation you'd rather avoid is the one that re-aligns the relationship. Right now Neptune retrograde in Aries rubs against your Cancer (square). On a Moon day, the body and the mood lead. Cancel what you can; tend to what you can't.
The bigger picture: Neptune, retrograde, in Aries (imagination and intuition) rubs against your Cancer — square. The friction is workable; move with patience.
Retrograde watch: Neptune in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius, and Saturn in Aries are retrograde — expect review and revision in those areas, not fresh starts.
Love & relationships
Right now Venus in Libra rubs against your Cancer (square). Cook for someone today — the act of feeding is your truest love letter.
Career & money
Right now Saturn retrograde in Aries rubs against your Cancer (square). The work that nobody sees you doing is the work that compounds. Keep at it.
Wellness
Right now Sun in Virgo opens an easy door to your Cancer (sextile). Cry if you need to. The tears are doing inventory work, not betraying you.
