Daily Horoscope: Cancer

Defensiveness is causing you to clam up. How can others help if they don't know what's amiss?

You hoped things would improve on their own, but it's clear you have to be more hands-on. The situation at home needs immediate attention.

Now that you purged your inner circle, you'll see you're more together than you thought. Life's more upbeat without naysayers around.

The icier you act, the more heated a love interest becomes. Yes it goes against your maternal nature, but sometimes you have to throw a little Mommy Dearest into the mix.

You're tired of feeling financially beholden, but are you ready to spread your wings and fly? There's life outside the golden cage.

You don't like working with people you can't trust, but business is business and sometimes unscrupulous types make the most profitable allies.

Support from an unexpected quarter allows you to do what you wanted to. This leads you to revise your opinion of certain people.

A relationship reaches the critical stage, but stick it out. Pushed to the limit, it will bounce back before you know it.

A magnificent Moon/Jupiter sextile guarantees safe passage through a rocky time. A manager or supervisor won't be so lucky.

You're forcing a decision when you don't have to. Back off and this person will come to you when the time is right (probably next Wednesday).
