Now, we missed the sign of Cancer... This is really because Cancer represents the Mother and Mothers are always busy and it was a busy time. (well I'm using that as an excuse) and I'm sticking to it.
CANCER – 4TH HOUSE – ESCOTERIC RULER (SOUL) – NEPTUNE (cloudy)– (Non-violent, won’t cause harm =- Exoteric ( (Personallity) Moon. The Crab – goes sideways, does not like confrontation – feels vibrations (sensitive). Cardinal Water. – Bossy – they create fear. Think they are No 1. MO: To nurture/smother (red chestnut). They are shallow water and agitated water (a warm bath will help them relax). Healing warmth from the Sun.
Cancer is not so firmly tied up with tradition (does love it) but not as much as his polarity – Capricorn. Capricorn with its steadier mind and strong will power help the crab. For the Capricorn, in spite of its ingrained adherence to formality and habit will eventually pry loose and with all that is noble and the best of the past, climb forward. With emotional tenacity.
Negative: Moody/crabby/ nippy, pinchy. They can’t see clearly and can’t see beyond what is.
Positive: Deeply caring, genuine and sincere, empathic and safe, genuine. Deeply feeling, hyper sensitive, energetically alert. “I feel”, “I care about you. Come and share my home and kitchen” .
Polarises: the watery nature (gullable) emotional weekenss –to emotional resilience. Emotional passivity and then tenancity. Teaches others to be human. Become deeply feeling but not emotional. Creative artist. Intuitive and tenacious!
4th house is the biological female home, domestic. Things can appear cloudy. They can pick up others energy. Can be caring and sensitive. Strong Cancer will lose a limb over situations. They are driven by feelings and emotions. Their words = “I would rather feel compassion than know the meaning of it”.
Neptune is where you have distortions. Look at your dreams and follow them. Are they emotionally stable?
Cancer needs to learn to develop emotional resilience. They have good intelligence, but sluggish for sometimes seeing the obvious. Need and like their sleep (too much)). Use sleep to retreat from the world (Shrek).
Negative: shy, retreating, seeks shelter from life’s storms, negative, moody, vague, gaps in consciousnes, don’t often like the public eye. Private and invisible. Love their home for food and protection etc. Need psychological safety, fear failure of the outside world. Cowardly, soft underbelly, side steps issues and backs down.
Positive: Motherly courage to defend her children, warm, caring, nurturing, receptive, kind, protective, soft place to fall, confidential, comfort people by cooking. Willing to expose themselves to public scrutiny. Expresses their emotions with bravery, self respect. Feels deeply.
They must look forward and not live in the past. Stop going sideways and face life front on. Face of courage in the face of fear. WHERE CANCER IS WILL INDICATE YOUR FEAR FACTOR. Cancer must call upon its back door (Capricorn) to face the world alone. Must cultimate emotional detachment and not get stung. Look at where you need to detach yet feel? Must birth self. Where Cancer is where you need to nurture and care for you. Impart emotional wisdom. About caring for others in a healthy empowering way? Do not avoid your own emotions. Learn how to go with ups and downs. Where it is what is your most constant and dysfunctional emotion? Cancer dominates mass consciousness , which equalsan empathic response to world suffering (Dali Larma).
How do we respond to family? How does the global village impact on your personal family? Kind Cancer builds a lighthouse so all may find their way home. It is affected by the Moons phases. Children/stepchildren etc. Also emotional / hormonal imbalances.
