Career
The second half of 2025 brings strong potential for professional growth and financial progress. The aspect of Jupiter on the 6th house and Ketu’s influence on the 10th house create a favorable alignment for career advancement.This period supports progress in the workplace, including financial growth, opportunities to start new ventures or receive job offers, promotions and new roles in government jobs and resolution of job-related disputes or conflicts.
For competitive exam aspirants, this phase promises a high chance of success. Likewise, individuals in the private sector who are actively seeking new opportunities may find promising job openings. Overall, the combined influence of Jupiter and Ketu is highly supportive for career and financial advancement. However, due to the retrograde motion of Saturn, there may be slight delays in achieving results, and a tendency toward negligence or overconfidence should be avoided.
Finance
The period from July to December 2025 is expected to be financially favorable for individuals with Cancer Ascendant, largely due to the combined aspect of Jupiter and Ketu on the 6th house. Those seeking loans or financial assistance are likely to obtain it with ease, while those already in debt may find opportunities to repay or settle outstanding loans. Individuals involved in commission-based work, brokerage, or additional sources of income will particularly benefit during this time. However, due to retrograde Saturn, it is advised to avoid lending money to others, as recovery may be delayed or difficult.
For business owners, this is a promising time to make new investments, receive fresh orders, and expand production capacity or upgrade machinery. There are strong indications of profits significantly exceeding initial costs, making it an ideal period for economic advancement.

Family
With Jupiter’s aspect on the 4th house, along with the influence of Rahu, this period is likely to bring a joyful and harmonious atmosphere at home for Cancer ascendants. You may find opportunities for family outings, picnics, and indulging in delicious food. There is also a strong possibility of purchasing a new vehicle, starting home construction, or celebrating a ceremonial or auspicious event within the household.
Additionally, travel to another state or even abroad with family members may take place. However, due to Jupiter’s retrograde motion, it’s important to manage expenses wisely and avoid ideological differences that could disturb the peace. A little patience and planning will help maintain harmony during an otherwise positive and celebratory time.
Love and Marriage
For Cancer ascendants, Jupiter’s placement in the 8th house (house of intimacy and secrets), along with the aspect of Rahu, may increase the chances of unconventional or secretive romantic connections. There is a possibility of being drawn into extramarital or morally complex relationships, and some individuals may become emotionally or physically involved with someone significantly older or even a married person. New romantic encounters may also arise while traveling or during a stay abroad, which could feel intense and sudden.
However, due to the retrograde influence of both Jupiter and Saturn, such relationships may not offer long-term emotional fulfillment and could lead to conflicts or cracks in existing partnerships. Therefore, it’s crucial to exercise caution and self-awareness before engaging in such relationships, as the emotional consequences may be difficult to manage later.

Education
For students with Cancer Ascendant, the influence of Jupiter and Rahu on the 8th house makes this a favorable period for academic pursuits, especially for those engaged in teaching, research, or higher learning. This phase supports students seeking new admissions, as well as those studying philosophy, linguistics, astrology, spirituality, or fields that involve advisory or analytical work.
However, retrograde Saturn’s aspect on the 3rd house may bring a tendency toward laziness, distraction, or over-involvement with friends. You are advised to stay disciplined, avoid wasting time on unproductive social interactions, and focus on consistent effort. Otherwise, even with a supportive planetary backdrop, your progress could be hindered.
Additionally, during August, the conjunction of Sun and Mercury in the ascendant may cause periods of mental restlessness, inner conflict, or emotional strain, making it all the more important to stay centered and maintain a calm mindset.
Health
From a health perspective, this period is expected to be generally favorable for those with Cancer Ascendant. However, during the month of August, the presence of Mercury in the ascendant may lead to issues related to cold, cough, chest congestion, or respiratory infections. Individuals with a history of back pain, lower back issues, or shoulder discomfort may experience a recurrence of symptoms, though Jupiter’s aspect offers healing and gradual relief.
Among parents or elder family members, there could be minor concerns such as leg pain, spinal discomfort, or issues related to the eyes or teeth. That said, this timeframe does not indicate any major or life-threatening illnesses, and with basic care and prevention, most health issues will remain under control.
Remedies
To promote overall well-being and balance planetary influences, it is recommended that individuals feed black urad dal (black lentils) to a cow. As a remedy for Saturn’s malefic effects, light a mustard oil lamp under a Peepal tree, particularly on Saturdays, as an offering to Lord Shani. Additionally, to invite inner peace, spiritual protection, and mental clarity, chant one mala (108 repetitions) of the sacred mantra “Om Namah Shivaya” daily.
For Cancer moon sign individuals, the 2 Mukhi Rudraksha is highly beneficial. Associated with the Moon, it promotes emotional balance, inner peace, and harmony in relationships, aligning well with Cancer’s nurturing and intuitive nature.
