Oct 26, 2026 - Nov 1, 2026 - This week is a mixed bag of emotional intensity combined with a fun and flirty vibe, Cancer. First up is Monday’s square between the bright sun in alluring Scorpio and transformative Pluto in disruptive Aquarius that could have you crushing on someone hard in a short amount of time. You might want to look at the why behind your feelings.

On Friday, Mercury is retrograde in investigative Scorpio as it squares bold Mars in Leo, bringing out your competitive or egotistical side. If you’re going to challenge someone you’re interested in, make sure it’s in a playful way. Game nights or trivia contests can lead to sparks, but only if you don’t insist on winning at all costs.

And keep in mind that graceful Venus is retrograde in airy Libra all week as she encourages you to really think about your need for emotional security. Someone from your past could drift back into your thoughts, but nostalgia can be a real b*itch. Take your time before deciding whether old feelings really deserve a new chance.
