Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into this whole astrology thing lately, and I stumbled upon something that really resonated with me: Cancer sun in the 12th house. It’s supposed to be this super emotional, intuitive placement, and I was curious to see if it held any truth in my own life.

I started by, you know, Googling it. Just to get a basic understanding. I found a bunch of stuff about hidden emotions, psychic abilities, and a need for solitude. Sounded kinda spooky, but also kinda… me?
Then, I really started digging. Instead of just reading random articles, I decided to look at my own birth chart. Found a free website to do that. Typed in my birth date, time, and place, and boom – there it was. Cancer sun, smack-dab in the 12th house.
Next, I wanted to see how this actually played out in my day-to-day. I started keeping a journal. Just a simple notebook where I jotted down my feelings, my dreams (if I remembered them), and any weird “intuitive” moments I had.
- First week: Lots of mood swings. Like, one minute I’m happy, the next I’m tearing up over a commercial. Super annoying.
- Second week: Started noticing I was picking up on other people’s emotions. Like, I could tell my coworker was stressed even though she was trying to hide it.
- Third week: Had a super vivid dream that felt… I don’t know… important? I wrote it all down, even though it didn’t make much sense at the time.
The Real Work Begins
This journaling thing became my experiment. I pushed my self to feel everything, recording daily, and started paying more attention to my gut feelings. For example, there was this one time I was supposed to go to a party, but I had this nagging feeling that I shouldn’t. I ended up staying home, and it turned out the party was a total disaster. Coincidence? Maybe. But it felt like more than that.
The dreams were the weirdest part. I started trying to interpret them. Looked up some dream symbols online. Some of it was total garbage, but some of it actually seemed to connect to things happening in my life.
After a few months of this, I started to see a pattern. My emotions were definitely intense, but I was also learning to manage them better. I was more aware of my own needs, and I was getting better at setting boundaries. And that intuitive thing? It was still there, but it felt less like a random superpower and more like a quiet inner voice that I could actually listen to.
So, yeah, that’s my Cancer sun, 12th house experiment. It’s still ongoing, of course. I’m still learning, still growing. But it’s been a wild ride, and it’s definitely made me feel more connected to myself, and that is good!
