Today, I wanna talk about something a bit more personal, something I’ve been exploring and it’s all about the stars, specifically my astrological makeup: Aries Sun, Taurus Moon, and Cancer Rising. It’s been quite a journey, getting to know how these three interact within me.

First off, figuring out that I’m an Aries Sun was a no-brainer. I’ve always been the first one to jump into something new, super impulsive, and yeah, sometimes a bit too competitive. Like, when we decided to start that community garden project, I was all in, ready to lead, making plans, and getting everyone pumped up. That’s the Aries in me, always pushing forward.
Then, understanding my Taurus Moon was like, “Aha, that’s why!” It explains my love for the finer things in life, my need for stability, and why I can be so stubborn. I spent months just making my workspace perfect, cozy, and filled with things that make me happy. It’s my safe haven. I took time to make it just right, focusing on comfort and beauty. My friends didn’t get it, but it was super important to me. This is the Taurus Moon, wanting that solid ground and a touch of luxury.
Now, Cancer Rising was a tough one to get. I started noticing how much I value my home life, how sensitive I am to the moods of others, and how I tend to mother everyone around me. I remember organizing a surprise party for a friend. I didn’t just want a party; I wanted to create a warm, loving atmosphere where she felt totally cherished. I picked the themes, planned the menu, and decorated the place to make it feel just like home. It took some time, but seeing her face light up made all the work totally worth it. It clicked then – that’s the Cancer Rising, making me all about nurturing and creating a sense of belonging.
Putting it all together, it’s like, I’m this fiery, go-getter with a heart that just wants a cozy, beautiful, and stable life, and a deep need to care for those around me. I initiated a book club in my neighborhood, not just to talk about books, but to build connections. I made sure our meeting spot was welcoming, decorated it myself, and even baked something every time we met. It was important to me that everyone felt like they were part of a community, a family almost.
Here are some things I realized:
- I jump into things with Aries energy but need Taurus’s comfort to feel secure.
- I can lead with my Aries Sun, but I do it in a way that makes everyone feel cared for, thanks to my Cancer Rising.
- My Taurus Moon’s love for beauty and stability influences how I create spaces, both in my home and in my relationships.
I guess this whole astrology thing has been a cool way to understand myself better. It’s not just about being an Aries, Taurus, or Cancer. It’s how they all mix together that makes me, me. And it’s helped me appreciate the different parts of myself, even the ones that seem to clash.
