Sun in Cancer

15 July 1963, 06:20, Copenhagen, Denmark

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Brigitte as “you”.

The position of the Sun in the sign is the most significant point in the personal horoscope of each individual. After all, it is the most prominent and most noticeable object in the sky.

The position of the Sun is what we usually call "our horoscope sign". For example, if someone's horoscope sign is Aries, this means that at the moment of birth, the Sun was situated in the Aries sign. The Sun makes its way through all 12 signs of the horoscope in one year. It stays in each sign for an average of 1 month.

The Sun in your horoscope represents your personality, your inner self, your self-awareness. Through the Sun's position, we can see how you, as an individual with your desires and needs, adapt and react to the influences of your surroundings and also how you express your inner potentials.

Sun in Cancer

You are a very emotional and sensitive person. You are good and soft-hearted, highly compassionate and understanding, and always willing to help those in need. You are a romantic person, and you love your home and family. You often also have deep patriotic feelings. You are poetic and artistic by nature, you are especially drawn to poetry, even if you work in other professions, like tourism or catering (as a chef/cook, waiter, caterer, sommelier...).

You have an excellent memory and strong intuition. You dream a lot and your actions are usually very susceptible to the influence of the Moon. You have an unusual sense of humor. Because you are a person vulnerable and susceptible to external influences (you absorb impressions like a sponge), you need a lot of time for yourself. Try to take care of yourself adequately – with healthy reflection, meditation, positive affirmations and all other self-improvement techniques.

Sensitive, gentle, need time for self

You change your mood very quickly; you have an unpredictable temper and can sometimes be sullen and grumpy. You don't trust others and as soon as you feel threatened, you withdraw into your shell. However, you have an abundance of inner energy that you can use with great success, especially for caring and nurturing others (that is why you are often successful in medicine). That said, you must avoid giving yourself away too much since your character attracts 'energy vampires'.

You should often go to secluded places where you can relax completely - preferably in the vicinity of water. Visiting these sites, plus the ability to create in peace and solitude will recharge your batteries. All your senses are acute, and you often have problems with your liver, kidney, stomach and metabolism.

Sun in 12th house

You have strongly developed spiritual abilities, exceptional feeling for fellow man and incredible understanding; that is why you are usually successful in art and also in medicine, social work, psychology, spirituality and similar areas. You essentially have a very sensitive nature, but you have outstanding mental abilities that you best renew in quality contact with yourself and for this, you need solitude.

Sun conjunction Mercury

Conjunction is actually the only aspect which the Sun and Mercury can form, because the maximum distance between them is less than 30 degrees (and so less than one astrological sign). You are usually a dynamic, moveable and persuasive person and usually have good ability of speech and communication. You quickly make conclusions and connections (unless Mercury is in another bad aspect or goes retrograde) and you often also have a good nose for business, you also master the art of bluffing. You have a sharp and quick mind, sense of detail and you are cunning, although you are also often talented in languages, writing, music and art. You are very sociable, also easy going and adaptable, that is why you have many acquaintances and friends and people, as a rule, like you and often invite you places. You have an audacious, curious and youthful nature and often also looks.

Sun sextile Mars

You are usually dynamic and often combative, you usually know how to use your abilities well and usefully and efficiently channel your energy. You intuitively know when and how you need to act (and when not to), you also have some luck in everything you do. You often have a very competitive and athletic character and are often successful in ˝men's professions˝ or areas which are mostly attributed to men.

Sun square Jupiter

You are usually impulsive, impetuous and passionate. You like indulging in all life's pleasures, including good food, that is why you are often prone to obesity. In general, you have strong and big needs, desires and appetites, you like dramatizing and exaggerating that is why you often live beyond your capabilities. You often have high-flying plans and goals which are too numerous to all be fulfilled. You often tend to be snobbish. You are usually an ambitious and enterprising, also competitive person.

Sun inconjunct Saturn

You usually have a more serious and reserved nature (if other positions and aspects don't influence you differently), but you don't always like yourself in this role and perhaps feel you are not appreciated enough and that you aren't noticeable enough and then you are perhaps torn between being too modest and humble and between apparent over self-confidence (the cause of which is insecurity). You need healthy, clear and mostly realistic goals, which you need to set and fulfill one step at a time.

Sun square MC

Because of such an aspect in your natal chart, you are usually very active, ambitious, motivated, stubborn and persistent. You want to progress, to be seen, to be important and renowned and mostly you want to succeed in society and you often do because of these characteristics. Because you are driven by a strong desire for success and also for prestige, often at the cost of business and financial success, you neglect your emotional life. You are interested in 'male professions' and also all areas that are mostly attributed to men (such as sports), where you are often successful thanks to your motivation and ambitiousness.
