Cancer wants to stay close to home this October. That is because you have the Sun and Mercury sitting in your fourth house of home and family. You might find yourself spending more time with family members or those you consider family. You might even look around and decide your home needs a makeover. A nice time to buy some new items for your abode. There is a New Moon here as well so you have the opportunity to look at things in a new way or even think about a new home. A positive time to both buy and sell property. Mercury will stay here until the 14th, then the Sun moves out as well on the 23rd.

Venus is also on the move as it begins the month in Virgo and your third house but leaves on the 14th and moves into Libra and joins the Sun in your fourth house. The fourth looks busy and this can mean hosting some sort of event or celebration in your home. Maybe a party or two that you say yes to. The Crab likes to stay home but these planets combine being home with being social, so you do the math. This is also a good month for any kind of activities with your children or grandchildren. And of course, don't forget that the fourth house loves food. You will need to be careful at the grocery store and you may find yourself thinking of new recipes and new restaurants to try.

Jupiter is still in your very own sign and this is always a good thing. As Jupiter sits next to your Sun, you are full of enthusiasm and optimistic spirits. Jupiter pushes us to expand our boundaries and so you look at the world instead of your smaller community. You are ready to travel and of course with Jupiter there is always an element of education mixed in there somewhere. What do you want or need to learn because now is the time.
