Hi
Cancer plays a major role in my chart.
I have my I.C. and 4th house cusp in Cancer, and that is where I have my roots and origin.
I'm very connected to my mom, and love being at home. I also love cooking. This goes well with my hermit soulcard in tarot, and I'm out of my apartement only for a half hour every week.
But what really makes Cancer so important, is that the ruler of my rising sign Aries (which is Mars), is placed in Cancer in 4th house. Jupiter is at the same place too.
The ruler of the rising sign and it's placement, is said to be of major importance in a horoscope. Maybe I should have made a own thread about this...?
Anyway, in my case it's Mars......the red, male planet......giving me aggression, male conquering energy and a straightforward view on things.
But with a placement in Cancer, which is so introvert, protecting, emotional and moody, I have a hard time when it comes to expressing my male energy. I have with one exception just female friends, and feel most men are too raw and stupid.....hehe. (sorry guys)
Of course that is not a rule, but I connect much better to females and their values.
My male energy os also very nurturing. I love to feed people with thoughts and hugs to make them feel better, and I'm fond of children and can be very protective.
In a relationship I seem to take over the traditional female role. I'm the chef in the house, and also tend to be the one who wants to talk about emotions. And I'm in a deep need for security.
I have been toghether with two cancer women, and they are my best relationships so far.
Well, this is some of my cancerian influence...
