Happy Winter Solstice, everyone! Alongside this sacred turning point, we also welcome the start of Cancer Season. That’s right —Gemini Season’s social buzz is coming to a close, making way for a more introspective, heartfelt chapter.
Has the whirlwind energy of Gemini Season left you feeling ungrounded? While that airy vibe encouraged constant motion, conversation, and stimulation, Cancer Season invites a much-needed pause. It’s time to shift from overthinking to deep feeling —and reconnect with your emotional core.
Read on for everything you need to know about Cancer Season…
When is Cancer Season 2025?
It runs from around June 21 to July 22.
Cancer Season is here, besties!!!!!!
What happens during Cancer Season?
Cancer Season ushers in a much-needed vibe shift.
The energy that’s in the air RN encompasses that of a Cancerian. The crabby sign is known for being just that: crabby.
Not in a savage way, just in the way of feeling every single damn emotion. Thoughtfully, not dramatically (although sometimes there’s a little drama).
During this period, you’re encouraged to bail on hectic events and instead stay in and ponder your thoughts and feelings.
Instead of shouting your next moves from the rooftops, just sit on them for a lil bit. Massage them. Finesse them. Etc.
Explore the depths of yourself and see what’s lurking in there: desires, dreams, hopes, fears, shit you’ve been trying to manifest but simply cannot. All that jazz.
Analysing your emotions might sound like an intense thing to do, but it’s the best way to spark emotional growth.
What should I do during Cancer Season?
Cancer Season is about stewing on everything and doing a ‘yuge stock take of your life. Then by the time it’s over and spicy Leo Season arrives next month, you’ll be ready to get out there and live your best life.
But until then you’ve got some real thinking and feeling to do.
So don’t be shy to RSVP ‘no’ to all events. Cancer Season says so! Use it as your doctor’s note, if you must.
Instead, spend your evenings in your bathtub with a glass of a red, some scented candles, and your journal. Write everything down and in doing so, you might just manifest your deepest desires and discover what you’ve really been running from.
With the moon as Cancer’s ruling planet, this season encourages you to dream boldly, embrace your emotions in all their depth, and— most importantly — trust your intuition, which is especially sharp right now.
The moon also governs themes like home, closeness, and connection. So skipping that chaotic house party? Totally fine. Instead, invite your closest friends over for a cozy movie night and deep, soul-nourishing chats.
Better yet, why not gather for some moon rituals? A little coven-style hangout is exactly the kind of magic Cancer Season calls for.
