Sun in Capricorn with Moon in Cancer and Virgo Rising Personality Traits:

With a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon, on the surface, you try hard to maintain a tough, cool, and detached image, but despite that nonchalant air, you are actually a very sensitive and emotionally vulnerable individual. Insecurity is your main stumbling block. In order to contend with those deep-seated feelings of inadequacy and uncertainty, you can either resign yourself to despair and cynicism or build a tough shell to protect yourself from hurt and anguish. Janis Joplin was a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon, and her tough, hard-drinking, one-of-the-guys image was widely, if belatedly, recognized as a cover-up for her genuine depth and sensitivity.

The Sun and Moon in the Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon combination are in opposite signs, which makes it likely that your early environment was strife-torn or at least unsympathetic. This fostered in you a strong sense of self-reliance and independence (and perhaps as cynical outlook).

Having a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon, many of your insecurities are traceable to your childhood. Your challenge is to begin to recognize your sensitivity as a strength rather than a weakness and to allow your true self to blossom. You are a capable individual. Value yourself and your talents. Self-acceptance and self-love are the two critical things for a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon individual to learn.

You are warmhearted and compassionate—and in many ways ingenious. Your ability to see beyond surface impressions and your adaptability to change enable you to create new modes of understanding. Your only enemy on the road to success will be yourself; once you overcome self-doubt, there is little you cannot do. The revolutionary physicist and mystic Isaac Newton was a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon.

As an individual with a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon, you have a remarkable memory and a sharp wit. You see details that elude the most acute observer, and you are blunt and outspoken in pointing them out. The Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon combination endows you with excellent leadership potential and much charisma, yet you seldom take advantage of this strength. Set apart from the crowd as you are, you choose neither to lead nor to be led. Essentially, you are an independent type, preferring the comfort of going at it alone. Such self-imposed exile can develop into profound loneliness and isolation when added to that melancholy outlook of yours. It is essential for you to stay somewhat active socially, even if you are your own boss.

With a Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon, you have an overpowering need to be loved, but emotional difficulties may stand in the way of a successful and equal love relationship. That sensitive, aloof façade of yours turn a lot of people off. People will respond to whatever vibrations you put out, so try to show more warmth and affection—if you want to receive it.

Keywords For A Capricorn Sun Cancer Moon:

Virgo Rising

Virgo Rising indicates an analytical outlook. Though the degree of emotionalism depends on other influences in your birth chart, it is generally through the mind that you perceive the world. This is not to say you are cold and insensitive. Indeed, the opposite is true, for Virgo Rising individuals have deep and tender emotions and care a great deal about others.

However, with Virgo Rising, it is the process of thinking logically that gives you the deepest satisfaction. You appreciate the finely tuned mechanics of sifting through facts and information, finding the truth of the matter, and introducing order and reason into almost any situation.

Virgo Rising individuals are rather fixed in opinion, but not so inflexible that they will not change their minds upon careful review of opposing facts. To you, the cardinal sin is to be ignorant of one’s ignorance.

Having Virgo Rising, a fault sometimes is your inability to put things in perspective, a proclivity for getting bogged down in small details and losing sight of the big picture. You magnify the importance of a petty detail and then become resentful if others fail to see its significance.

As an individual with Virgo Rising, work is important to you, and you usually accomplish a great deal during your lifetime. Often you are at war within yourself, both wanting things to come easily and needing to achieve solely through your own efforts. Control—both of self and of events—is what makes you feel secure. As it turns out, most Virgo Rising individuals do gain through their own hard work rather than through the influence of others.

With Virgo Rising, you have a charm and elegance that is difficult to pin down. You are not always easy to know intimately. Your shyness and aloofness (sometimes well disguised by a social veneer) must be penetrated by anyone who wishes to become truly close. Emotionally, it’s hard for you to show your feelings, though a great deal is always going on under the surface.

As children, with Virgo Rising, you sometimes suffer from poor health. Happily, health improves the older you get. For many of you, a marriage partner brings property or wealth. Later in life Virgo Rising individuals frequently become property owners, often in a foreign country. Success for you is often linked to dealings in and travel to places far from home.

As a Virgo Rising individual, you tend to have a gentle, oval face, eyes that sweep around a room and take in everything, and a body that gives the impression of frailty but is actually very strong.

The planet Mercury, which rules Virgo, is very prominent in your birth chart. The influence of Mercury bestows a logical mind, acute powers of observation, an intellectual outlook, perception, and a flair for science and writing. It also encourages fussiness, a nervous temperament, sarcasm, fault-finding, and worry.
