Cancer Horoscope for October 2014

This is an interesting month for you, Cancer, in many ways a stepping stone to another stage of your evolutionary development. Home and family concerns become a major factor for you now, and you are making something of a fresh start in this area. Your creative output could perhaps better reflect your soul-purpose agenda and becomes the subject of introspection and reevaluation through the first half of the month. You are taking a good long hard look at your inner self, and also coming to a better understanding of what you are up to with regard to the significant relationships in your life. You are searching for a way to express your own brand of truth that is uniquely your own, and attempting to build a future vision for your work in the world on that basis.

As the month begins, at the very same time as you revel in a burst of energy for getting out into the world and making your mark, with another part of your psyche you are indwelling far within interior realms down inside yourself. This is consistent with the New Moon from a little over one week ago that took place in your home and family sector, bringing attention and focus to the more emotional and softer areas of your existence. You might find that experiences with family members stimulate you to dig deep into the hidden places of your psyche, a prominent area for you now of learning and growth. You find yourself in paradoxically fortunate circumstances with public presence and yet possessing also the initiative to further explore your inner world. Although this second impulse seems perhaps less significant in scope than concentrating on outer world performance, in actuality the reverse is true.

Also supporting this second view is the retrograde of Mercury during the first week of October, in a Water sign, namely Scorpio, corresponding to your self-expression sector. You are thus rethinking various aspects of your creative output during the entire remainder of the month, and on into November. You are beginning to more clearly recognize that inner and outer are but two sides of the same coin, and that the one underlies the other.

With Chiron, the Wounded Healer, extremely prominent this month as well, there is a perfect storm brewing within your psyche for a better connection with all your parts. You might discover that these hidden parts of yourself function almost like autonomous personalities that might be saying "no" to your most cherished dreams and schemes, just when the conscious side of yourself wants to say "yes." These places within you are in need of greater conscious attention. As you begin to understand and relate to them to are likely to find that they are the result of prior trauma stemming from early childhood, when parental figures or peers did you wrong in some manner, or at least it seemed as though they did, and the hurt remained undigested and unrecognized, in a walled-off portion of your psyche.

These inner explorations affect the important partnerships in your life as well, as indicated by the highlighted presence of the transformative energies of Pluto in your relationship sector. You could be entering into a culminating phase of a long series of events and attitude shifts that have gotten you into better sync with this important area of your life. Relationship factors could have been in transition for many months now, in fact, and the inner work, in which you are currently so greatly involved, has a real bearing on putting the icing on this particular cake. You are also taking off in new directions with your work in the world; everything about career seems to be in major flux over this monthly cycle, including the way that you set intention consistent with your evolving values. It's a big month for you in all kinds of ways, and most especially in the active interest taken in what goes on beneath the surface layers of your psyche.
