Karka (Cancer) weekly rashifal: 8 January - 14 January 2024 - Good

The weekly rashifal for Karka (Cancer) Moon sign, 8 January to 14 January 2024. It follows where each planet stands counted from your Moon sign, the way a traditional rashifal does, and describes tendencies rather than certainties.

This week leans in your favour. The planets that help you are well placed compared with most weeks, so it is a good time to move plans forward.

Saturn, Sade Sati and Dhaiya

Ashtama Shani

Saturn is in your 8th house (ashtama Shani, one of the two Dhaiya periods). Go carefully with risks, shared money and disputes, and avoid big new ventures in haste.

Mars in your 6th house

Held back
Areas of life:Career

Mars stays in Sagittarius all week.

Mars stands for energy, drive, courage and how you handle conflict.

Mars in your 6th house helps you overcome rivals and competition. Pending work moves and debts can be reduced.

For now Rahu obstructs Mars's good results (vedha), so effort needs more patience before it pays off.

What it means for you

  • Career: the support is there, but recognition comes more slowly than you hope.

Sun in your 6th house

Good
Areas of life:Career

Sun stays in Sagittarius all week.

The Sun stands for confidence, authority, recognition and your relationship with your father and people in charge.

The Sun in your 6th house helps you get the better of rivals and pending work. Debts and competition tend to come under control.

What it means for you

  • Career: work tends to be noticed; a good time to take on more or put ideas forward.

Mercury in your 6th house

Held back
Areas of life:Career

Mercury stays in Sagittarius all week.

Mercury stands for communication, learning, trade, paperwork and quick thinking.

Mercury in your 6th house helps you outwit rivals and finish detailed work. Careful effort tends to be recognised.

For now Rahu obstructs Mercury's good results (vedha), so deals and paperwork may need a second look before they come through.

What it means for you

  • Career: the support is there, but recognition comes more slowly than you hope.

Venus in your 5th house

Held back
Areas of life:LearningRelationships

Venus stays in Scorpio all week.

Venus stands for love, comfort, beauty, pleasures and partnership.

Venus in your 5th house favours romance, creative work and joy through children. Studies of the arts go well.

For now Rahu obstructs Venus's good results (vedha), so comforts and pleasant times may be fewer than this placement promises.

What it means for you

  • Learning: effort in study pays, but results take longer to show.
  • Relationships: good intentions on both sides, but plans may not come together yet.

Remedy for this week

Small, voluntary practices for the planets that ask for the most care this week. They cost nothing and promise no particular outcome; take up only what feels right.

For Saturn, best on Saturday

Saturn is in a testing place for you, touching shared money and sudden changes.

  • Help elderly people or those who do hard physical work, in any way you can.
  • Accept that some results come slowly; keep going without forcing the pace.
