Moon in Cancer in the Ninth House

The Moon is in its natural home in Cancer, for this is the sign that the Moon rules. Here the best qualities of the Moon – devotion, patience, sensitivity—are brought out. The romantic, intuitive sign of Cancer and the sensuous, receptive Moon are in harmony with each other. If you have your Moon in Cancer you have strong emotions and perceive the world around you through your feelings rather than your intellect. However, because you do not openly show your feelings, it is sometimes difficult for others to figure out where they stand with you. In general, with your Moon in Cancer, you are more receptive than active. You store away impressions, reactions, and information until the time comes when you can use them. Moon in Cancer individuals often excel in an artistic or literary way. Imaginative and creative, you work best when you set your own pace and are not subject to the tyranny of time clocks.

With a Moon in Cancer, any impression that sinks into your mind makes an indelible mark. You have an extremely retentive memory. Moon in Cancer individuals are often found in professions where memory plays an important role: historians, teachers, actors, writers.

Having your Moon in Cancer, at heart, you are refined, delicate, and gentle. You may appear to be aggressive and forceful, especially if your Sun or Mars is in a fire sign (Bélier, Leo, Sagittarius), but underneath you are vulnerable and easily hurt. With your Moon in Cancer, you tend to let your feelings fester, and indeed, touchiness, moodiness, and a kind of quiet self-pity always lie near the surface. Though you are subject to greater mood swings than other Moon signs, your ups and downs don’t last long. If you are left alone for a while, the dark clouds will soon blow away. One of the most striking characteristics of Cancer is the continual ebb and flow of emotions, which combined with the waxing and waning influence of the Moon produces quick shifts in temperament and at times makes you emotionally exhausted.

As an individual with your Moon in Cancer, you are at your best in a deep and committed love relation. Unfortunately, you often have to go through an unhappy love affair before you find the contentment and security you seek. Even though you are motivated strongly by your feelings, in a curious way you are also afraid of them. With your Moon in Cancer, it is your nature to mistrust love, to feel you are somehow unworthy of someone else’s devotion. You will hold on too long to a relationship that’s destructive because deep in your psyche you don’t believe you’ll ever find another love. You also believe that to be alone is a fate worse than death. Very often early in life a Moon in Cancer individual must go through an emotional trial. But when at last you find love that feeds your soul and you feel secure, your personality blossoms.

Having your Moon in Cancer, you have a tendency to hold on possessively to a loved one, and a knack for subtly instilling guilt in someone you love, usually to test the person’s depth of feeling. However, among your most endearing traits are intense loyalty and dedication.

La position en signe de la Lune décrit la façon dont nous réagissons habituellement aux autres et aux circonstances de notre vie, ainsi que la façon dont nous ressentons nos émotions et cherchons à nous épanouir sur le plan affectif. La position de la maison correspond au domaine de la vie dans lequel nous agissons le plus inconsciemment, selon des schémas passés et des réponses instinctives.

Lune dans la 9ème maison :

With your Moon in the 9th House, although there is some danger that the emotional side of your personality may not be as fully developed internally, the Moon in the 9th House shows the potential for your emotional development to occur in other ways. The focus of the type of experience represented by the 9th House is outward, experiential and cognitive rather than emotional. Thus, having your Moon in the 9th House, you may not develop or exercise your emotional faculties much in intimate and personal settings. You are more likely to experience emotions that are energizing, thrilling or have to do with discovery.

As an individual with your Moon in the 9th House, you are most likely to respond with your emotions when you are confronting or are involved with the wider world. You may also be driven to understand your emotions or your subconscious. Thus, with your Moon in the 9th House, rather than being directly felt, your emotions may become an object of cognition and reasoning. This may tend to negate the subjective side of the psyche that is symbolized by the Moon. If you do not regain touch with this subjective world, you are likely to lose a vital part of yourself. On the other hand, by being detached from your emotions and through understanding the emotional process you are more likely to be in control of your emotions and to be able to maintain a state of emotional equilibrium.

Insécurités

Having your Moon in the 9th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you may be intimidated by the wide scope within which you feel called upon to operate at the emotional level. You may feel that you cannot possibly give of yourself emotionally to the range of experience indicated by the 9th House. You, therefore, hold back emotionally and you fail to develop or manifest your emotional side.

Alternatively, with your Moon in the 9th House, you may take such an objective approach to your own emotions that you feel intimidated by any subjective experience of their reality that may intrude on you from your subconscious. This leads you to be fearful of becoming emotionally intimate. Having your Moon in the 9th House, another manifestation of your emotional insecurity is for you to broadcast your emotions, almost treating the emotional side of life as a sport or adventure. This is a defense mechanism that allows you to avoid intimate emotional experience.

L'axe du développement émotionnel

As an individual with your Moon in the 9th House, you will tend to develop emotionally by acquiring broad experiences (e.g., travel) and by attempting to understand your own emotionality. Thus, emotional development may occur later in life, after a sufficient amount of experience has been accumulated and your horizons have been widened. Your emotions may also lean toward excitement and enthusiasm as appropriate emotional responses to your discovery of a wider world.
