The Full Moon in your relationship zone on the 23rd brings heightened emotions and passion.
Cancer (21 Jun – 22 Jul):
Jupiter goes into your subconscious and hidden zone this month – so the best advice is to keep things to yourself or just those closest to you as there are likely to be some big changes happening which need time to develop before you are ready to act. The New Moon brings an opportunity to reconnect and repair an old friendship which has become neglected and unloved.

Jupiter moving signs on the 26th creates the perfect circumstances for travel and exploration for some Librans, and higher education for a career boost for others.

The Full Moon in your intuition and psychic zone is likely to bring some interesting dreams and perhaps even some insights into an old problem.
