Do you like to work behind the scenes and remain anonymous? 

 

Are you low key for a reason or are you just uncomfortable with publicity or acknowledgement? 

 

Do you give credit for your work to someone else because you are uncomfortable with recognition or flattery?

 

Don’t let fear eliminate your importance. Be an undercover agent when appropriate but be the voice of knowledge when fitting.
Living in the Shadow

Some of us prefer solitude and not seeking the limelight.  These are likely the quiet individuals who prefer to sit back and let others do the talking.

 

Some prefer to observe and listen,  taking in all that goes on around them. But some people have other reasons for sitting back in silence. Do you feel as though your input is not important or that you have nothing to offer? 

 

If you are the latter type, you will want to question where this comes from. 

 

There is nothing wrong with privacy and solitude, although on many levels, life is for sharing, even if it is only with a select few.  We certainly do not need to be in the public eye or speaking out of turn just simply because we want to be heard. Each of us does, however, have something valuable to offer and should not hold ourselves back.

 

Your insight might be the information needed by someone you can share it with, someone who has been lost or confused currently.  Do not hold yourself back because you feel insignificant or unworthy.  You do have something to offer.  Your input is important and may hold much more than you know.  Put to rest your worry and feelings of inadequacy and share your knowledge. Be a part of and a contributor to the world around you.  You might just hold the knowledge that is needed.

 

Don’t let fear eliminate your importance. Be an undercover agent when appropriate but be the voice of knowledge when fitting.

Who are you and why have you come for this incarnation? 

 

Are you here to second guess your capabilities? 

 

Are you to live this life in fear or with regret because you weren’t sure about what it was you were supposed to be doing or because your mind convinced you that you didn’t have what it takes?

 

Now is the time to take that next step, without fear, without guilt or preconceived notions. Believe and build the momentum that is necessary.  One step forward and the journey begins.  Remember you are a spiritual being in a physical body.
Spiritual Being in a Physical Body

If you can grasp the concept of living lives prior to this one, can you go one step further to accept that you have guides and accept that you have an ingrained knowing of what is required in this life to advance and to learn? 

 

The boundaries you set limit or enhance your abilities.  This can be material advancement, after all we have chosen to come back into this material life, and/or it can be spiritual enlightenment.

 

Don’t limit yourself with beliefs of what is possible for you.  Know that you are so much more than your mortal self. What are you capable of doing in this life?

 

Do not waste precious time limiting your possibilities. You will be pleasantly surprised at what you are capable of doing in this life. After all, how much experience do you have behind you?

 

You are the only one holding you back. You hold the key to the door of expression and advancement whatever that may look like for you personally.

 

Now is the time to take that next step, without fear, without guilt or preconceived notions. Believe and build the momentum that is necessary.  One step forward and the journey begins.  Remember you are a spiritual being in a physical body.

The Sun moves from the Mutable, Air sign of Gemini into the Cardinal, Water sign of Cancer on June 20, 2024.  This is a huge transitional position when you think of the personalities involved.  Gemini is inquisitive and thinking and very much into communication, while Cancer is emotional, sensitive and very much into feeling.  The senses are open and operating at full capacity when we speak of the sign Cancer.

 

Those individuals that are born on the cusp of Cancer and Gemini will share some of each sign’s character traits; while the deeper we go into the sign of Cancer, the more the qualities of Cancer become apparent. 

 

The Sun has an orb of influence of 16°.  There will be individuals that have other indicators within the framework of their chart that puts emphasis on different signs and the Cancer traits may not shine through (as with any sign).  Much depends on the overall picture of the natal or birth chart. 

 

An example, someone who has their Sun in the very early degrees of Cancer (therefore having some Gemini traits) may also have Mercury and Venus in Gemini and the rising sign of Gemini. All of these planets in Gemini emphasize the Geminian traits but being in the first house (with Gemini rising) ignites Aries tendencies as well because the first house is naturally ruled by Aries.

 

Cancer is a sensitive sign, emotionally driven and has strong nurturing tendencies.  Family and the family of friends are important factors in their lives.
Sun in Cancer

Those with their Sun in Cancer, the rising sign of Cancer or an emphasis of the fourth house will share some of these traits that we are about to discuss.  The Sun sign is always tied to who we are on an internal level, the rising sign is the way we represent ourselves especially when we first meet people, and the fourth house will have some traits similar to Cancer’s and much will depend on the planets found in this house as to how these energies and traits play out.

 

Cancer is a sensitive sign, emotionally driven and has strong nurturing tendencies.  Family and the family of friends are important factors in their lives.  Cancer individuals would likely consider themselves homebodies and their home environment needs to be peaceful and comfortable as this is where they can recharge their emotional batteries.  They are often quite affected by their surrounding and some take on the energies of others, so they need a place where they can unleash and rewind.

 

Cancerians can be action oriented and restless under the right conditions but also prefer to sit in comfort and watch TV or settle into gentle conversation with those that matter.  Their children and often their parents play an important part in their lives. Being a mothering type, Cancerians would like to help where they can.  They feel deeply and have a hard time keeping emotion inside although their symbol, the crab, can put up defense by going within the protective shell.  They are more sensitive than they would like to admit.  Some see their emotions as a vulnerability and do their best to show strength by hiding their emotions somewhat, but this can also be quite difficult.  Emotion is a virtue not a vice.  As much as they need to nurture, they also need nurturing themselves.

 

Heritage and the past are important to a typical Cancerian and their memory is usually quite factual as they remember more than most.  They are also very much into cooking, at least most of them, and they can be quite the master chef.  Some are also into antiques and have a close tie with the past. 

 

When emotionally hurt, Cancerians don’t forget.  Hurt runs deep and although they try to hide it, they hold on for far too long.  It is not that they can’t forgive but emotional hurt takes a long time to heal.

 

Many Cancerians are kind, gentle individuals that will do almost anything for you.  They are a friend that you can rely on, but stand on the wrong side of their temperament and you may not remain a friend for too long.  As they mature into themselves, they often learn to curb their emotion or at least try to accomplish this.

 

Cancer individuals should recognize that their emotional response is a strength and not a hinderance.

 

Happy solar return to our Sun in Cancer readers!
