October 2014 horoscope - Cancer

I follow the Vedic calendar; this is the monthly solar horoscope for birthdays from 16th July to 15th August or Cancer Ascendants and Moons

The big news of course is the lunar eclipse on 8th October in Pisces and the area of your chart to do with traveling, higher learning and in Vedic astrology, this is also the area of your chart to do with marriage. This is important because your ruler, the Moon, is involved in the eclipse. Generally speaking, lunar eclipses are very potent full Moons and because of the opposition of the Sun and Moon, are relationship-oriented. The full Moon brings things to light and with an eclipse, may involve some sort of a crisis. It's a time when a need or want becomes so intense, you can't ignore it. This can come from within yourself or from external sources - most likely a partner. If you are single, then the gap in your life due to a lack of a relationship, makes it presence felt - if a partnership is indeed what you want. Uranus is involved in the eclipse, so things you've been feeling, thoughts you've had come bubbling up to the surface. Thoughts and feelings that you've started to be aware of at the turn of the year and throughout January 2014 and something to do with education, publishing and as I said, your marriage, that began in April 2013 is moving on to the next stage. Something that was initiated then is being competed – an exam, an essay, a book, a trip you’ve been planning for a long time or something connected to your marriage.

This cycle is in the naksahtra of Revati, ruled by Mercury. Some of the meanings of Revati are the Shining One, the Protector of Herds and Wealth and the one descended from a wealthy family. So, Revati is a Shining Light who shows the Path to others. Although part of the eclipse, this full Moon is considered a rather lucky one where we are able to move freely from one mental engagement to the next. This seems good news for exams, serious conversations, legal agreements and contracts. The only stumbling block is Mercury going backwards in the sky from 5th  to 25th October 2014. While Mercury in Virgo makes sure you ask the right questions, you may have to go back to the drawing board on a couple of things.

The new Moon on 23rd October in the area of your chart to do with house and home really is a wave goodbye to Saturn. Saturn leaves this area of your chart next month not to return for another 29 - 30 years and what a relief this seems to be for you. You have done a lot of work emotionally and for some of you things at home changed a lot. The new Moon here is a new beginning and with your own ruler involved, an important one that will make its presence felt for some time and with long-reaching consequences. Connected to this cycle are also themes of money and relationships, so some of you – in a month that sees a lunar eclipse affecting your marriage – could enter legal and binding contracts to do with finances and your home. Sounds exciting! Have a great month, Cancer!

Annual and monthly horoscopes are very general so get in touch if you are interested in an individual chart reading. In readings, I use the Indian Dasha system in individual forecasts which is known for its accuracy. You can also follow me on Facebook, Twitter and Google +, see you there!
