An awkward or painful memory could act as a ball and chain as far as progress in the present is concerned. This reflection that you cling to probably offers few, if any, benefits to nurturing it. To make the most of all that's unfolding in the present, you'll need to let go of what connects you so strongly to the past - or a past relationship. You can move on any time you choose to.
Week Ending Aug 9, 2019
With your confidence noticeably higher toward romantic or relationship matters, you're right to believe that anything is possible. If recent weeks or months have required you to slip into the shadows and distance yourself in some way, then a new level of gusto could replace apathy or reluctance. However, as keen as you might be for a specific development to unfold, you're also wise to ensure that certain rules, restrictions, or boundaries remain in place. You know that passion could get the better of you - and are wise to keep it restrained, for now.

Cancer in Love
Cancer brings a deeply nurturing and emotional approach to love and romance. Ruled by the Moon, Cancers are intuitive, empathetic, and highly sensitive, making them profoundly attuned to their partners' needs and emotions. Their loving and caring nature makes them devoted and protective partners, always striving to create a warm and secure environment for their loved ones.
In relationships, they are affectionate and deeply committed. They value emotional connection and seek a partner who can provide the same level of care and understanding. Known for their loyalty, they often view their relationships as a top priority and are willing to make significant sacrifices to ensure their partners' happiness and well-being.
Cancers express their love through acts of kindness and thoughtful gestures. They enjoy creating cozy, intimate settings where they can bond with their partners, whether it's cooking a comforting meal, planning a quiet night in, or offering a listening ear and a shoulder to cry on. Their natural inclination to nurture makes them excellent at providing emotional support and reassurance.
However, they must be cautious of their tendency to become overly protective or clingy. Their deep fear of rejection or abandonment can lead to possessiveness, which might stifle their partner's independence. It's important for Cancers to balance their nurturing instincts with respect for their partner's personal space and autonomy.
When a Cancer finds a partner who appreciates their depth of feeling and reciprocates their devotion, the relationship flourishes into a loving and secure bond. With their capacity for empathy and care, Cancers can create a love story that is rich in emotional depth and enduring affection, providing a sanctuary of warmth and tenderness for both partners.
