Moon in Cancer


	Moon in Cancer

by Rebecca Brents

Introduction

The Moon travels completely around the Zodiac ... through all twelve signs every month -- a trip that lasts about 28.3 days each time. It makes this circle 13 times a year. It stays in each sign about 2 1/2 days.

Everyone gets to enjoy a monthly Lunar homecoming as the Moon returns for a few days to the sign it occupied when they were born ... their Natal Moon sign. Astrologers call this a Lunar Return.

When the day's Moon is in Cancer ...

With the day's Moon in Cancer, the emotional climate is reclusive and cautious. Mostly, you'll feel like staying home, reconnecting with family members or your own inner self ... and generally taking care of issues in your private life. Too much contact with the outside world doesn't appeal much at all.

So, what does this consistent combination of Lunar energy and reserved Cancer attitudes mean if you find it in a Natal Chart .... if you were born with a Natal Moon in Cancer?

Cancer is a Water Sign.

Is your Natal Moon in Cancer?

People with Cancer Moons "pick up on" moods, feelings and motives with remarkable accuracy. They understand what's going on without any need for explanation. Empathy is one of their strongest qualities and they trust their skills in deciphering the complicated emotional currents in almost any situation virtually from birth.

They start to use these abilities in infancy and early childhood and then carry them forward into the grown-up world of adult power and adult problems ... where they really get a workout.

Cancers literally have the gift of Mother's Intuition working with them and for them, 24 / 7. If you ever needed proof that we are all connected and no one's secrets can stay safe for long ... just watch one of them in action. You'll see exactly what I mean.
