Staying Grounded Under the Cancer Transit

The Sun is moving through Gemini, but we’ve got a heavy concentration of planets in Cancer right now. Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus are all sitting there. It’s a watery, emotional transit. You might feel a bit sensitive or prone to digestive sluggishness.

When Cancer energy peaks, your internal fire, or Agni, can flicker. It’s not the time for heavy, greasy meals that sit like stones.

Try shifting toward cooling, light foods. Think steamed greens, basmati rice, and mung dal. Don’t skip the ghee; it’s essential for soothing the gut during this emotional cycle.

I’ve been practicing a bit of cooling breathwork lately, specifically Shitali pranayama, to keep the mind steady when the environment feels reactive.

If you're trying to track how these shifts hit your specific chart, I often use the Vyom app to keep an eye on these planetary movements. It helps you see where these influences land in your own house system.

Don’t overextend yourself this week. Drink your water at room temperature, keep your dinners light, and give your nervous system a chance to catch up.

You’re doing fine. Just breathe through the humidity.
