Okay, so, let me tell you about this whole astrology thing I got into. It all started with this “Cancer Sun, Cancer Moon, Sagittarius Rising” combo. Sounds wild, right? At first, I was totally clueless, just messing around with those birth chart websites.
Getting the Basics Down
I started by typing in my birth details – date, time, place, the whole shebang. Hit “calculate,” and boom, there it was, my natal chart. It looked like a pizza with a bunch of weird symbols. Cancer was all over the place, in both the Sun and Moon sections. And then there’s this Sagittarius thing in the Rising part. I had no idea what any of it meant but it looks cool.
Cracking the Cancer Code
Next, I dug into what Cancer is all about. I just started googling around, you know how it is. Turns out, Cancers are supposed to be all emotional, nurturing, homebody types. They are about feelings, family, and all that. This Cancer Sun thing means that’s my core personality, who I am deep down. The Cancer Moon? That’s my inner self, my emotional reactions, how I deal with my feelings. Since it’s all Cancer, it must be super intense for me, huh? I jotted some notes down on my phone, just random keywords and phrases that stood out.
- Emotional
- Intuitive
- Home and Family
- Moody
- Caring
Figuring Out the Sagittarius Rising
Then there’s this Sagittarius Rising. I looked that up too, and it’s like the total opposite of Cancer. Sag is all about adventure, freedom, being optimistic, and philosophical. Rising is supposed to be how you present yourself to the world, your first impression. So, I guess I come off as this adventurous, free spirit, but inside, I’m a big softie? It’s kind of funny when you think about it. I copied down some phrases about Sagittarius too, just to keep track.
- Adventurous
- Optimistic
- Independent
- Blunt
- Philosophical
Putting It All Together
This is where it gets interesting. I started thinking about how these two sides, the Cancer and the Sagittarius, play out in my life. It’s like there’s this constant tug-of-war. One minute I’m craving adventure and want to explore the world, and the next I just want to curl up at home with my loved ones. And I can be totally blunt and say things without thinking. It’s messy, but it’s me. I spent a good chunk of time just reflecting on my past experiences, how I’ve reacted in different situations, and how these traits might have shown up.
Making It Real
Now, I didn’t just stop at reading about it. I started paying more attention to my feelings, my reactions, my interactions with people. I tried to be more mindful, you know? Like, if I felt that Cancerian moodiness creeping in, I’d acknowledge it, try to understand where it was coming from. And when that Sag urge for adventure hit, I wouldn’t just ignore it. I planned a couple of short trips, nothing crazy, just to satisfy that itch. I even started journaling, just to get my thoughts and feelings down on paper. It helps to see it all laid out.
It’s an ongoing thing, this whole self-discovery journey. But this “Cancer Sun, Cancer Moon, Sagittarius Rising” thing has been a really interesting starting point. It’s like having a roadmap to understanding myself a little better. And it’s kind of fun, too, figuring out this cosmic puzzle that is me. I am still in the process of figuring it all out. Maybe I will have more to share later.
