9 to 15 November 2026. Vedic. For people whose Moon is in Kark (sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsa).
Dearest Cancer, your emotional core is taking center stage this week. With the Sun and Mercury (retrograde, turning direct on the 13th!) gracing your 4th house, you're invited to delve into matters of home, family, and your inner sanctuary. This is a time for nurturing your roots and perhaps re-evaluating where you truly feel safe and secure. Venus retrograde in your 3rd house until the 14th prompts a review of your communication style and local connections – are your words truly reflecting your heart? Mars moves from your 1st to your 2nd house on the 12th, joining Jupiter and Ketu, bringing a powerful, yet potentially intense, focus to your finances and sense of self-worth. It's a call to examine your resources and speak your value, but remember to approach these matters with your characteristic gentle strength.
Trust your intuition when making decisions; your emotional intelligence is a strength.
Create a cozy, comforting space at home to share with loved ones.
Practice grounding techniques, like deep breathing, to manage emotional fluctuations.
Light a white candle and focus on filling your home with peace and security.
A general forecast for everyone with the Moon in Kark. Your own birth chart (ascendant, dasha periods) shows how these transits work for you.

Positions are computed with the Swiss Ephemeris in the sidereal zodiac with the Lahiri ayanamsa, as in Indian Jyotish. Houses are counted whole-sign from Kark as the 1st house. Times are Indian Standard Time. Rahu and Ketu always move backwards, so they are not marked retrograde. The Moon changes sign every two to three days, so it is left out of this table.
Nurturing, intuitive, and deeply emotional. Protectors of home and family.
