Okay, so today I decided to dive into this whole “cancer sun sagittarius rising” thing. I’ve always been a bit of a horoscope dabbler, you know, checking my daily reading for fun, but I never really got into the nitty-gritty of it all.
First, I grabbed my birth chart info. I already knew I was a Cancer, obviously, but the rising sign? No clue. I popped over to one of those birth chart websites and plugged in my birth date, time, and place. Boom! Sagittarius rising stared back at me.
My Initial Reaction?
- Cancer Sun: Okay, yeah, that’s me. Emotional, homebody, loves a good cuddle.
- Sagittarius Rising: Wait, what? Adventurous? Outgoing? That… doesn’t sound like me at all!
I felt pretty confused. I mean, how can I be both a home-loving crab and a freedom-seeking archer? It seemed like a total contradiction.
So, I started digging. I read a bunch of articles, and watched some videos. Most of what i found explained how, I began to see how these seemingly opposite energies could actually work together.
The way I understand it now is this:
- My Cancer sun is my core self – my inner world, my emotions, my need for security.
- My Sagittarius rising is how I present myself to the world – my outer shell, my first impression, my approach to new experiences.
It’s like, deep down, I’m all about feeling safe and nurtured, but on the surface, I come across as more open, optimistic, and eager for adventure. It’s like I have this inner drive to explore and experience new things, but I always need that cozy home base to come back to.
I’m still processing it all, to be honest. It’s a lot to take in! I’m not sure If fully make sense of this mix, I plan to keep an eye on how these traits show up in my daily life.
I have a hunch that, I will more Understand my complex of this combination, so that’s it for today’s astrology experiment.
