Cancer Weekly Horoscope for May 18, 2025

If you’ve been feeling like you’re grappling with a case of cabin fever, chances are you might be itching to get out of your comfort zone as the week starts. Even if you opt to stay home, you might enjoy planning a future trip, diving into an exciting new book, cooking an exotic new recipe, or watching an eye-opening film, any one of which could prove a fulfilling learning experience and boost your personal growth. Later, be sure to watch out for loneliness and a need to carve out space to care for yourself.

RomanticScope

You want to impress someone at the beginning of the week, and your instinct may be to do or say something extravagant. Make sure you're not going too over the top. After all, what's charming about you are your devotion, sensitivity, and compassion. From Wednesday through Friday, you're clicking nicely—whether you're single or coupled up—and the exchange of ideas is flowing. Make plans for the future now. Partnerships may be a wee bit rocky this weekend. Avoid starting any new tandem projects. Singles should stay consciously open to differing points of view, no matter how wacky.

BusinessScope

The first half of the week is great for planning and large-scale thinking. Your grasp of the big picture might be at odds with coworkers' detail-oriented perspectives, but if you persist they'll defer to your judgment. That harmony might start to fray a bit later in the week as partnership issues rise to the surface and you find yourself reliving conflicts you thought you'd resolved. You'll feel great over the weekend, but your decision-making powers could be somewhat diminished. Try to put off making any agreements or choices until next week.

TravelScopes

The plans you make at the beginning of the week will fall perfectly into place, and you don't even mind coordinating the details. Get your itinerary settled and confirm your reservations—or your appointments and agenda if you're traveling on business. You may have an issue with your lodgings on Thursday or Friday. Could it be that you just miss the comforts of home? Be proactive. Ask for a different room or treat yourself to a special little something. Guard your valuables this weekend, and watch out for deals that sound too good to be true.

Flirt

The first half of the week? Bright flowers and white clouds and huge bouquets of balloons on every corner. Monday you're going to splurge on a big buy, and Tuesday and Wednesday you're going to be fielding more phone calls from great friends than you can handle. The second half of the week is where things get rockier. It's nothing that you won't be able to handle, but things might be going less than smoothly at home on Thursday. On Saturday, you could be stalled by indecisiveness. For the sake of inner peace, don't get involved with anything you're unsure of on Sunday.
