Ah, to be a Cancer witch. Every other sign should be so lucky. I remember when I was a young teen witchling still trying to figure out what it meant to be a Moonchild, I had the audacity to say to my brilliant astrologer friend, “I’m not really a Cancer.” To me, being a water sign meant being a drip. She wisely said to me, “You’re just a Cancer in denial.” As I grew older and wiser, at least in this area, I realized that she was absolutely right. I really began to embrace my Cancerishness. I am now to the point that I really embody all the great and sometimes even the cheesy things that make us the most magical sign in the zodiac. Did I just say that? Yes, I sure did, and by the time you finish this book, you’ll be embracing all your wonderful qualities and complicated challenges and be proud to be a Cancer witch too, even on the slim chance you’re a Cancer in denial now.

Here are some ideas about the types of spells you naturally vibe with, tools that align well with Cancer energy, and some magical ideas for tackling everyday issues as well as larger goals.

Look at these examples and see if any of them are already part of your practice. The ones that aren't currently part of your routine might be something you want to explore. For example, if you want to be successful on the job, you might want to create a potion you can drink at work, or if you are interested in ancestor magic, you might develop your mediumship skills to contact your loved ones who have passed on.
