What's Your Pouroscope? Cancer Edition
The Summer Solstice, a celebration of the Sun's power, is the longest day of the year and marks the beginning of summer and Cancer season! The Sun in Cancer is giving off an abundance of energy and encouraging us to manifest grand ideas, while Neptune in retrograde is a reminder that we don’t have to tackle everything at once. Sometimes smaller milestones are better than rushing through the journey. To celebrate, we’ve got you covered with a collection of star sign inspired wines. Check them out below, along with our new Cancer Season playlist on Spotify, where you’ll find a stellar collection of tunes to keep you vibin’ all month long.
Aries
Welcome to comfy, domestic Cancer season! Take this time to get some R&R. Surround yourself with your most supportive friends and family, as you try to find those quiet moments you’ve been craving. The Cancer new moon is launching your personal desires for feeling homey and emotional security. Create your version of home, whether that looks like renting your dream apartment or decorate with your own artwork.

Taurus
Cancer season is initiating your social summer. Get ready for a packed calendar full of hanging with friends, first dates, and potential new business partnerships. Keep in mind that every outing is an opportunity to network with others. Even with all the new connections you’re making, remember that not everyone is worth keeping around. If you find yourself emotionally drained by someone, they may not be worth the energy.

Cancer
Happy Cancer Season! You’re back and more energized than ever. With the new moon kicking off Cancer season, you’ll find yourself trying to hone in on your aspirations for the rest of the year. Spend time clearing your mind and really focusing on your intentions. Write them down and place them somewhere you look at often as a reminder of what you’re striving for. Neptune being in retrograde means you need to take smaller steps to achieve your goals, rather than trying to tackle everything at once. Take time to appreciate the everyday things on your journey as well!

Leo
You’ve had quite a bit going on recently, especially during Gemini networking season. Cancer season encourages you to relax and rejuvenate! While you’re able to match everyone’s energy most of the time, you still need to process and recoup the energy you’ve extended recently. To cleanse your energy, try meditating or taking a salt and flower bath with a glass (or the whole bottle!) of wine within arms reach.

Time to paint the city red Virgo! After quite a bit of time spent hunkering down and working, you’re ready to mingle with friends, strangers, and colleagues alike. Instead of hyper-focusing on only work, your social calendar will be filled with summer events and parties that you just can’t miss. Remember to find a good balance between work and play. But playing a little hooky once in a while never hurt anyone!

Maybe one for each section of your life: romantic, professional, and personal.

Sagittarius
You’re craving a little “me-time” as the Sun slips into your eighth house of privacy and intimacy. Curl up with your fave book. Wander into a nail salon for a mani-padi. Check out a new exhibit or a museum you haven’t visited in a while. Do these activities solo and really just enjoy life and the things around you at your own pace. Sometimes doing things for yourself, by yourself, is exactly what you need to center yourself.

The Sun is shining on you and your other half, as it slips into your partnership house.

Slow down Aquarius. Spend Cancer season prioritizing your health and routines over excessive spending and hanging out with friends. Use the extra boost from the new moon to invest in yourself and your needs. Ask others for help, especially with tasks that you’re not excited about. Instead surround yourself with things, people, and tasks that enrich your life and make you happy.

Cancer season is about to be messy in all your favorite ways. You’re looking to express yourself in ways you haven’t before - whether that’s through art, cooking, or gardening. It might be time to pick up any project you’ve shoved to the side. With your new perspective, the end result may differ from your original idea for the best.
