Moon in Cancer

29 March 1917, 15:00, Brookline, MA, USA

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

The position of the Moon is a very important point of one's personal horoscope. In contrast to the Sun, the Moon travels much faster. It makes the entire path through 12 signs in one Moon cycle (which lasts approximately 28 days) and so changes its influence much more quickly. However, because of its size and proximity, its influence is the strongest for some individuals.

The Moon in personal horoscope presents your subconscious self, your emotions and sensations. Its position describes how you react on a subconscious and intuitive level.

Of course the Moon position acts completely differently on someone who has the Sun in Aries that on someone who has the Sun in Cancer. That is why it's important that you keep other analyses in mind when reading the horoscope and try to harmonize all of them.

Moon in Cancer

Because the Moon is home in Cancer sign, you are very sensitive to outer influences and negative vibrations of others and the environment; your impressions are strong, that is why you change your mood quickly and other people sometimes find you moody and incomprehensible.

You have strong energy, even in gentle, quiet and calm moments. If you are in a good mood, you are extremely witty (you have a good, but sometimes unusual sense of humor), fun, nice, compassionate and warm. If you are in a bad mood, it is clear that everyone around you feels bad. You are most probably prone to enjoying the peaceful surrounding of your home and family, you also love to travel.

Too sensitive for this world

It is very important for you to, when necessary, recharge your batteries and that you empty your tired, from all sides disturbed soul through creating in whatever area, but usually in artistic one, and thus find your peace again.

It is very advisable that you learn or improve relaxation and meditation techniques. You are probably very attached to your mother (your mother or another strong woman certainly plays a very important role in your life), however, this relationship can become problematic, if you don't leave your mother's nest soon enough.

You should avoid excessive self-pity, which is the cause of most of your problems and also avoid daydreaming and escaping into your past. A lot of times, you focus on past events or you, on the contrary, suppress them, which can cause numerous different problems, from stomach ulcer or acid to such severe diseases as cancer.

One more time: focus as much on yourself, as you do on others. Indulge in something nice and, what is most important, if and when you feel like it, some peace.

You have strong appetites in all areas, which usually reflects in making too quick or too frequent contacts and it can also reflect in you being insatiable and eating too much, that is why you are prone to obesity (if other aspects and positions contribute to that). It is advisable and useful for you to do something creative, e.g. painting and sculpturing or gardening, etc.

You have a very passionate nature and are often involved in dramatic relationships, sometimes also colored with violence (if other aspects or positions also indicate this).
