Okay, so, let’s talk about this whole astrology thing I’ve been trying out. My sun’s in Cancer, moon’s in Leo, and I’ve got a Scorpio rising. Sounds like a weird combo, right? But it’s been a trip figuring out how this all plays into who I am.

First off, I got into this whole astrology thing because I was curious. I mean, who isn’t, right? So I started by finding out my signs. Turns out, being a Cancer sun means I’m all about feelings and home and stuff. Then there’s this Leo moon, which is like, the total opposite—it’s all about being in the spotlight and showing off. And Scorpio rising? That’s the vibe I give off to people, even if I don’t mean to. It’s intense, mysterious, you know?
So, I started digging into what each of these signs means. Cancers are supposed to be super emotional and caring, which, yeah, that’s me. I’m the one my friends come to when they need a shoulder to cry on or just someone to listen. But then this Leo moon comes in, and suddenly, I’m also this person who loves attention and isn’t afraid to speak my mind. It’s like, I want to be there for everyone, but I also want to be recognized for it. A bit of a drama queen, maybe?
The real fun started when I started observing myself in different situations. I started to write down what I felt when I was in different situation. Like, there was this one time at a party. I was feeling all Cancer-y, sticking to my close friends, making sure everyone was having a good time. But then someone started talking about a project I was passionate about, and boom, Leo moon activated. I was holding court, talking about my ideas, loving the attention. I started to notice how I changed when I was in different situation, then I started to list them out:
- When I’m with my family, I’m all Cancer. Cozy, nurturing, you name it.
- At work, when I’m leading a project, that’s my Leo moon shining. Confident, maybe a bit bossy.
- Meeting new people? That’s Scorpio rising doing its thing. I’ve been told I come off as intimidating at first, which is funny because inside, I’m just a big softie.
I decided to do some experiments with my friends. I asked them how they see me, and it was wild. Some said I was this warm, caring person (Cancer, check). Others talked about how I could be super charismatic and the life of the party (Leo, check). And then there were those who found me a bit mysterious and hard to read (Scorpio, check). Checked a lot.
Diving Deeper
This made me dive deeper. I read articles, and listened to what some astrologers had to say—anything I could find. I wanted to see if others with similar combos felt the same way. And guess what? Many did! It was like finding a secret club where everyone understood this weird mix of being sensitive yet bold, private yet attention-loving.
Then I started to make a conclusion, I realized it wasn’t just about knowing my signs. It was about understanding how they worked together. It’s like, my Cancer side makes me want to take care of people, the Leo part wants me to do it in a way that gets noticed, and Scorpio rising makes sure I don’t get walked all over in the process. It’s a balancing act. Finally, I’ve started to accept myself more, the good and the bad. It’s not about changing who I am, but understanding why I react certain ways in different situations. This whole astrology experiment has been eye-opening, to say the least. It’s shown me that it’s okay to be a mix of things, that contradictions can be strengths, too.
I shared my experience with my friends who are also into this kind of stuff. It was pretty cool, actually. I’m not saying astrology is the answer to everything, but for me, it’s been a fun way to look at myself and the world around me. And hey, who knows, maybe there’s something to these stars after all.
