Moon Sign Today: The Moon Is in Cancer
Monday, July 13 — the Moon is travelling through Cancer (New Moon, 0% lit). Here's what that means for the collective mood today.
What a Cancer Moon feels like
A Cancer Moon is traditionally associated with a deeply sensitive, nurturing emotional nature — considered the Moon's home sign, where its qualities are most at ease. Feelings run deep and intuitive, with a strong attunement to one's own moods and those of others.
What everyone needs a little more of today: A cozy, safe home base and close emotional bonds.
The Cancer Moon in relationships
Needs emotional safety, tenderness, and a deep, caring bond where feelings are protected and reciprocated.
When does the Moon change sign?
The Moon spends about 2½ days in each sign. It moves out of Cancer and into Leo around Tue 6:35 PM ET, when the collective mood shifts accordingly.
