Sun in Cancer in the Second House

Having your Sun in Cancer, you may appear gentle, kind, sympathetic, and a patient listener. Then someone asks for advice, and you turn cranky, snappish, and appear to be completely indifferent to anyone’s problems but your own. You may wallow in self-pity and complain endlessly about how mistreated you are by the world. Turn another page of the calendar and suddenly you are back to being helpful, solicitous, and ready to do anything asked of you. More than any other sign, Cancer is a series of contradictions. With your Sun in Cancer, you prize security above all else, yet love new adventure. You are the soul of caution but you’re also a courageous initiator who goes out of your way to push over obstacles with your driving personality.

Complex, fragile, unpredictable, temperamental, the typical Sun in Cancer individual needs constant support and encouragement. You want desperately to be loved and approved of but resent needing approval so badly. Cancer’s big lesson is to recognize the hidden anger you carry within you and not allow this to corrode the relații that give you the emotional support you seek. Happily, when you get what you need, you give the best you have in return. Those who make you feel secure command your undying loyalty. With your Sun in Cancer, when you really care for someone there is nothing anyone can say about that person that will make the least bit of difference. You have a real blind spot when it comes to seeing a failing in those you love.

With your Sun in Cancer, you tend to be a worrier and a silent brooder. People may pour out their hearts to you, but the flow never goes in the other direction. You are cautious about revealing too much of yourself; you guard your secrets well. If offended, you do not strike back directly. Your method of retaliation is to sulk, and it is often very effective.

Having your Sun in Cancer, beneath your tough exterior you are a sentimental softie who will make any sacrifice for someone in need. If someone asks for a favor, your first reaction will probably be no, but the final answer is always yes. With your Sun in Cancer, you should be judged not by what you say but by what you do. You are possessive. Anyone who becomes part of your life will never again be entirely free.

For the individual with their Sun in Cancer, once you overcome your shyness and touchiness and master your turbulent emotions, your intellect and imagination enable you to become a success in almost anything you undertake. You have the ability to dig into your own inner life and turn creativity into practical ideas. Contrary to the impression you often give, you can be shrewd and canny in business. Cautious, conservative in your approach, you possess an antenna that quickly gauges public taste and opinion and senses new trends in the making. You’re also an on-the-mark judge of people. With your Sun in Cancer, this instinct for business combined with imagination is magical for acquiring financial security, and Cancer is called a “money sign” because of its ability to attract wealth. Cancer people hold on to money as tenaciously as they do to everything that belongs to them. To you money spells security, yet no matter how much wealth you accumulate you never feel really secure. That is true of your emotional security also.

The Inner You with your Sun in Cancer

With your Sun in Cancer, on the surface you’re the picture of calm and strength, but underneath you tend to feel insecure and inadequate. You are positive that other people know what they’re doing while you’re just winging it. Harmony is important to you—any kind of conflict or quarrel leaves you feeling depressed. However, you’re definitely not wishy-washy; you have the courage of your convictions and the strength to stick up for what you think is right. You don’t welcome change, and are hesitant about going ahead with something untried, yet this doesn’t stop you from doing what has to be done.

Poziția casei indică domeniul de viață în care alegem să ne concentrăm energia semnului nostru solar și să ne îndeplinim scopul pe care îl reprezintă.

Sun in the 2nd House

The Sun in the 2nd House generally is a dependent position for the Sun.  This is because you will tend to derive your identity from what you possess, from your resources and from what you value. Most people have been conditioned to value certain things and, if this is true for you, then your identity will be conditioned. With the Sun in the 2nd House, the degree to which your identity is dependent on the possessions you have is related to the degree to which you hold materialistic values. If you value things, your identity will be determined by the things you possess. If you value certain characteristics and qualities, your identity will be determined by those characteristics you cultivate. If, on the other hand, you value virtue or spirituality, then you will identify yourself as a person concerned with these things.

Having your Sun in the 2nd House, an issue that you are likely to face, particularly early in life, is determining what it is that you value. If you never address this issue, then the super-ego and societal conditioning are likely to make this determination for you. This will most likely result in you placing high worth on material acquisitions, because that is what society conditions us to value. The more you determine your own values, autonomously, the less conditioned your identity will be.

Another concern suggested by having the Sun in the 2nd House is what resources are available to you. You may feel dependent on having resources at your disposal. Your access to resources, or lack thereof, is likely to affect your sense of security. Feeling secure, particularly from a physical and material stand-point, is fundamental to you feeling good about yourself. Often, this sense of security is necessary for you to be able to turn your attention to anything else. Once established, however, this material security and knowing that you possess sufficient resources generally allows you to develop a strong self-identity and a great deal of self-confidence.

Insecurități

With your Sun in the 2nd House, when you define your worth by what you have, you never have enough and, therefore, you never feel adequate or worthy. Inwardly, you know that all your possessions and resources are liable to be lost, leaving you without support and without self-definition. Thus, you can never be secure within yourself. This inner insecurity drives you relentlessly to acquire more and more possessions in your attempt to feel self-worth. Even if you ostensibly feel proud of your possessions and resources, your hunger for more belies your inner insecurity and fear that you may lose all.

As an individual with the Sun in the 2nd House, you are likely to identify with what you have. This is usually material, but it may be nonmaterial also. For instance, if you identify with your value system, you feel that you are what you value. Most people with Sun in the 2nd House, however, will take their identity from what and how much they possess. If you possess much, you are likely to hold yourself in high esteem. If you possess little, you may suffer from lack of self-esteem. One defense against low self-esteem is to value what you have, whether it is great or little, because the more you consider that your possessions are valuable, the more self-worth you experience.  If you suffer a loss of your possessions, it is likely to be a particularly hard blow because this loss strikes at your very identity and self-worth. When you measure yourself by how much you have lost or gained, then the Sun in the 2nd House placement is a particularly weak and dependent astrological position. However, when you have defined your own values and risen above society’s materialistic conditioning, a 2nd House Sun can indicate a strong identity grounded in a sure conviction of what is valuable in life.
