AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
Your mood swings from positive to negative and back again as you can’t seem to get past a situation which happened not too long ago.

There are more people involved who care and are stuck by your inability to move forward. Financially all is moving according to plan and you can afford to be a little freer with your purse strings.
HINT: You may not always understand a Cancer you are close to but you definitely appreciate them.
