Overview for this Month: Cancer (All)
March 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:
The month ahead is strong for exploring new interests and options, dear Cancer. It's a good time to brush up on skills, discover different topics, and gain practical experience. March can bring nice opportunities to publish, learn, and share. At the same time, you're sure to enjoy more depth and connection with a special relationship or project.
Introspection has been good for you--and you have further ruminating and strategizing to do at the beginning of March-- but now, the scales are tipping, and you're doing more participating than observing. You’ll find that moving outside of your normal bounds and routines improves your opportunities.
The New Moon on the 10th can give you a new lease on life. It feels good to look forward with more optimism. New approaches to education, publishing, and recreation are in order. After this lunation, you might commit to a new line of study or more enjoyment and discovery in your life. New or revitalized interests, unusual studies, and different perspectives can lead you in different directions.
From the 11th forward, Venus supports your sign, traveling your solar ninth house and bringing your feelings and affections into the light after weeks of reflection. It’s a time to embrace the moment! Connecting with others through your interests can figure strongly. This transit highlights and enhances your naturally attractive qualities. You are looking for more unique and exciting experiences and ideas.
Your passion builds for a new idea, subject, course of study, or travel destination this month. This can also be a good time for competitions and athletics. You're motivated to share your enthusiasm with others. Collaborating or bonding with others, particularly friends, can figure strongly with a feeling of intuitive connection.
On the 19th, the Sun heads to the top of your solar chart, pointing to an achievement or a desire to perform. The month following this ingress can be a more ambitious period of the year when you’re incredibly goal-oriented. In fact, Mercury has been greasing the wheels of this theme since March 9th. These transits give you a professional or public voice and are strong for improving your reputation.
The Full Moon on the 25th is a Lunar Eclipse, and it can be about recognizing your need for family, or it’s a call to action as your personal life needs some attention. This eclipse magnifies your living conditions or arrangements, personal life, emotional world, home, or family. Finding a better balance between your professional and personal life is an ongoing theme this year, and this lunation furthers things along. It can be a time of moving, reorganizing, or refocusing.
While your focus on your life path, responsibilities, goals, ambitions, or career increases as the month advances, this eclipse reminds you that if your responsibilities have overshadowed your personal life to the outside world, it’s time to pay them their due attention. Still, eclipse energy can be draining, so take your time--breathe it all in and then wait and see. Another reason to slow down? Mercury will turn retrograde on April 1st, and some of the ideas you're playing with now might be up for reconsideration later.
Cancer (Born June 22 to July 1) and Cancer Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Cancer:
March 2024 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
March 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until March 19th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar ninth house now. This is a cycle in which you seek to expand your experiences and awareness, whether through philosophical thinking, higher education, travel, or simply activities that take you away from your everyday routines. You may feel a little restless if you don't find ways to explore.
It's an excellent period for looking at your life from a different perspective--a broader one--whether you initiate this process or you make contact with others who stimulate you to think about your circumstances differently. Your energy is strong, open, and friendly right now, you come across well to others, and you are a little bolder and adventurous than usual.
From March 20th forward:
The Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle.
You want to shine! Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.
Eclipses
A Lunar Eclipse occurs on March 25th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar fourth house. Surprises surrounding your home, family, and domestic life are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of house and home, property, family, parents, and foundations is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a project on the home, an event involving a family member or parent that grabs your complete attention, a flurry of activity in your home that demands attention, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until March 11th:
Venus continues to move through your solar eighth house during this period. You are attracted to the deeper elements of relationships and social interactions now, rather than what you meet on the surface. Mysteries fascinate you and you could be looking for others' motives for doing and saying what they do. It's a good time to feel supported by others, whether it's financially or emotionally. It's also a strong cycle for discovering your own hidden talents as well as fascinating things about a partner.
From March 11th forward:
Venus graces your solar ninth house during this period. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now. You tend to be expansive and generous when it comes to love. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn't consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life--who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 10th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar ninth house. During this cycle, you are especially fond of exchanging ideas with others, particularly your personal philosophies. You are inclined to take a broader look at things now, rather than concentrate on the details. You are communicating with more persuasiveness, enthusiasm, and optimism at this time.
From March 11th forward:
Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now.
Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now.
You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 22nd:
Mars continues to energize your solar eighth house. This is a less outwardly assertive or aggressive stage for you as you take the time to process recent events in your life and to develop strategies for going after what you want in the future. You are more observant than active during this cycle, and more strategic and deliberate when you do take action. There may be an increase in sexual appetite now. It's an excellent period for eliminating wasteful activities. Shared finances can come into focus, and you might feel an increased need to take charge of these matters. This could lead to disputes and disagreements if you are not careful or sensitive in your dealings with others.
From the 22nd onward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar ninth house. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Cancer (Born July 2 to 12)
AND Cancer Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Cancer:
March 2024 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
March 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now.
A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don't have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with managing everyday affairs and important details.

March 2024 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
March 2024
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until March 9th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar eighth house. Your attention turns inward, as well as to close personal relationships on a deeper level. Personal transformations, personal power, and intimate matters fulfill you most during this cycle. There may be a strong focus on other's money, such as the resources of a partner, inheritance, banking and loans, or taxes.
You are more intense in your mood and disposition, and perhaps even secretive, at this time of year. You are more in touch with the deeper and even primal elements of your own personality, and more able to see these things in others. This can be a determined and personally powerful time of year if you apply the energy of this transit constructively.
From March 10th forward:
This month, with the Sun spotlighting your solar ninth house, your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From March 3rd to 27th:
Venus graces your solar eighth house now. During this cycle, a financial boost is possible, or you may gain financially through your partner. A deep and intimate connection made now could be revitalizing and even healing. You are more inclined to want to smooth over differences in a partnership concerning the sharing of power, intimacy matters, finances, and other emotionally-charged topics. Intimate relationships are intensified now. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.
From March 28th forward:
Venus graces your solar ninth house during this period. A taste for the exotic takes hold during this cycle. Routine affairs simply don't seem to satisfy. You receive pleasure from anything that expands your horizons, both physically and mentally. Foreign people and places may particularly appeal now.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 4th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar eighth house. The ability to analyze and rationalize some of the deeper elements inside yourself and in your intimate life now can benefit you. This is also a good time for sorting out finances, particularly money shared or coming from other sources other than your own personal income.
You might particularly enjoy discussing topics that you typically don't verbalize with someone special during this cycle. Anything taboo, mysterious, or puzzling can be especially fascinating for you just now. You have little interest in small talk. You are more aware of subtleties and nuances during this cycle, and you can use this increased insightfulness to improve your life.
From March 5th to 21st:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
From March 22nd forward:
Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now.
Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now.
You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 9th:
Mars continues to move through your solar seventh house. During this period, strife is possible in your close personal relationships, as a significant other is now mirroring some of your own issues with assertiveness and anger. Attracting aggression in others during this cycle is a clue that there are unresolved issues within that need tending. You might actually seek some form of conflict, whether intentionally or not, in order to deal with these issues. There can be competitiveness in your life now. Any troublesome issues that have been dormant in a relationship are likely to surface, and can now be handled straightforwardly.
From the 10th forward:
Mars energizes your solar eighth house now. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Finding a better balance between your professional and personal life is an ongoing theme this year, and this lunation furthers things along. It can be a time of moving, reorganizing, or refocusing.
While your focus on your life path, responsibilities, goals, ambitions, or career increases as the month advances, this eclipse reminds you that if your responsibilities have overshadowed your personal life to the outside world, it’s time to pay them their due attention. Still, eclipse energy can be draining, so take your time--breathe it all in and then wait and see. Another reason to slow down? Mercury will turn retrograde on April 1st, and some of the ideas you're playing with now might be up for reconsideration later.

About These Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t abruptly change as the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Lunar Cycles section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
