Okay, so let’s talk about this whole “Sag Sun, Cancer Moon” thing. I gotta say, it’s been a wild ride figuring this stuff out. I’ve always felt like a bit of a walking contradiction, you know? Like, one minute I’m all gung-ho, ready to take on the world, and the next I just want to curl up in a ball and hide from everyone.
I started digging into astrology, trying to make sense of it all. First, I spent the whole afternoon reading whatever I could find online about sun signs and moon signs. Seems like the sun sign is your basic personality, the outward you, while the moon sign is your inner, emotional self. No wonder I’m so confusing!
So, I found out my sun is in Sagittarius. That made sense – I’m always up for an adventure, love learning new things, and I definitely have a problem with speaking before I think. I spent about an hour going through all of my pictures from my trip to Europe last summer, remembering how much fun it was to be somewhere completely new.
Then Came the Cancer Moon
But then there’s the Cancer moon part. Apparently, that’s why I’m such a sensitive soul. I mean, I can cry at a commercial, seriously. I decided to put this to the test. I sat down and watched a bunch of those sappy animal rescue videos. Yep, cried like a baby. It is so hard for me not to care too much. After that, I tried calling my mom, since Cancer moons are supposed to be all about family and nurturing. We talked for two hours, which is pretty normal for us.
- The Struggle is Real: It’s like having this constant internal battle. One part of me wants to run off and explore, while the other part just wants to stay home and bake cookies.
- Feeling All the Feels: I’m basically an emotional sponge. I pick up on everyone else’s moods, which can be totally exhausting. I tried to meditate for a while, just to clear my head. That helped a little, but it’s still a lot to deal with.
- Homebody at Heart: Even though I love to travel, I realized I really do need a cozy home base to come back to. I spent the rest of the evening rearranging my living room, trying to make it as comfy as possible. Added some new throw pillows and a super soft blanket.
It took me, like, the whole day, but I finally started to see how these two sides of me fit together. I’m still trying to find that balance. You know, finding a way to honor both my adventurous spirit and my need for emotional security.
I made a to-do list for the next week, trying to incorporate both Sag and Cancer things. Like, planning a weekend camping trip (Sagittarius) but also making sure to schedule in some quality time with my best friend (Cancer).
I kept thinking about how much I care about my friends and family. I get really attached to people, and it can hurt a lot when things go wrong. I guess I’m just a big softie underneath it all. It’s a journey, for sure. But at least now I have a better understanding of why I am the way I am. And maybe that’s a good start, right?
