Based on your chart, you are angry at the people who love you most because you’re unhappy with your job. A career change is what you really need. Start looking now, while you maintain your current position. Something fantastic could turn up as soon as September, from leads you generate today! As a Cancer, you are more in tune with your emotional tides and subconscious motives than those around you, and it’s true that your husband’s mood affects you. However, you’ll be surprised how differently you feel once your job brings you more of the creative and artistic satisfaction you’ve been lacking in your life. I’m willing to bet you already know exactly what kind of job would challenge you in the areas of your interest. You’ve thought about this change for longer than you would admit to your husband. The stars indicate you were afraid to talk about it because you were filled with self-doubt! Visit a professional group that interests you to start this journey toward a new profession.
