The summer season is here with the transiting Sun in the intuitive water sign Cancer. This energy gets us in touch with our feelings for the love of family, home and country. This is a time we care about others, are protective of our interests and we may spend time by water since the Moon rules this sign. The natal chart of the U.S.A has the Sun in Cancer. Happy Fourth of July. That is the birth of our nation and we try to care for everyone has history demonstrates despite internal opposing forces. While the Sun transits through Cancer we are more in tune with our imagination, feelings, and security. Cancer Sun native may appear cool on the outside but that hard crab shell is to protect their feelings and insecurities. Cancer people can wear a mask of complacency in order to hide their vulnerabilities and in order not to hurt others feelings given they are sensitive to the emotional undercurrents of others. This may cause them to appear evasive preferring not to confront anything too directly so they sidestep issues. Cancers are ruled by the Moon, giving this sign its flowing emotional nature and fertile imagination. They make great friends and are sympathetic, kind and protective. At times they are touchy and emotional preferring to hide or isolate themselves until they feel they have sorted out their feelings. Happy Birthday, Cancer! This summer major planetary energies from Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn plus the North Node in Cancer may be causing some frustrations and uncertainty. It will get better depending on your date of birth with those born middle of June through the first week of July who may have weathered these challenging transits.
