Sun in Cancer with Moon in Gemini and Leo Rising Personality Traits:

The Cancer Sun Gemini Moon combination suggests wit, sophistication, and intellectual agility. Highly perceptive and a natural critic, you have a phenomenal memory and the ability to learn just about anything. Your Cancer personality is intuitive, sensitive, and impressionable, while your Gemini inner nature is restless, variety-seeking, and inquisitive. But despite your buoyant spirit and gifted mind, you’ve got your fair share of problems.

Having a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon, introspection is difficult for you because you are so busy sorting out all the conflicting demands and impressions you receive from those around you. Like all highly sensitive individuals, you run the risk of over-accommodation and adaptation. In other words, rather than doing what you want to be doing in life, you may find yourself fulfilling someone else’s dream.

With a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon, rather than feeling what you really feel, you may be responding to the emotional environment around you: in a tense or overly aggressive environment, you become tense and aggressive; in a peaceful, noncompetitive atmosphere, you become tranquil and passive. Like a chameleon you take on the color of your surroundings, and thus it is difficult to find yourself and discover what your true aims in life really are. Is it any wonder that Henry David Thoreau who was a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon chose to work outside the mainstream of society, where his work and thoughts would be unimpeded?

As an individual with a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon, the next time you have to make a decision, stop and think: “What is it that I want?” learn to be more self-assertive. Stop, look within, and discover what your true desires and goals are. And once you have found what they are, don’t be afraid to act. Remember, your first impressions are very often correct, so learn to trust them and rely on them.

Your decisions should be your own; but the Cancer Sun Gemini Moon combination usually works best in partnership or within an organized, structured framework. Not an executive type (since you tend to be indecisive), your ingenuity, imagination, and intellectual skills can still be valuable in many fields. You may be attracted to advertising and the media. Or, if there are strong creative or artistic aspects in your chart, you can go far in the arts.

Having a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon, you are loyal to whoever happens to be around at the time, and sometimes you may make promises that you can’t keep. Female’s with the Cancer Sun Gemini Moon combination may be overwhelmed by stronger and more self-assertive partners, and thus run the risk of losing themselves in a submissive role.

With a Cancer Sun Gemini Moon, you should search for a partner who is as independent and open-minded as yourself, and avoid those who are overbearing or domineering. A Gemini Moon also tends to make one hypercritical. Don’t nag your partner just because he or she fails to provide you with novelty and excitement twenty-four hours a day.

Keywords For A Cancer Sun Gemini Moon:

Leo Rising

Leo Rising signifies nobility of character, high ideals, and great personal magnetism. If you have Leo rising, you are big-hearted, expansive, benevolent, and kind. You consider it beneath you to stoop to pettiness, grumbling, stinginess, or narrow-mindedness. Because you are so magnanimous in spirit, you find it hard to believe ill of others.

Of course, the world does not always live up to anyone’s expectations, and Leo Rising individuals are puzzled and hurt by meanness and un-generosity. At such times you simply put on your regal air and make sure the underlying knows in what contempt and low esteem he or she is held.

Having Leo Rising, you have a great sense of showmanship. You love to put on lavish displays—whether it is decorating your house with expensive and elegant things or dressing in attention-getting clothes or throwing a splendid dinner party. To less flamboyant types you may appear ostentatious, show-offy, and extravagant. But your showy displays are not only to get attention; you see life in larger-than-life terms and aspire to the highest and the best. This quality draws others to you and, in itself, attracts power and influence.

Leo Rising individuals seem surrounded by luck in money, career, and friendship. You are not an especially hard worker but tend to achieve success through the influence and pull of others. Fame and fortune come to you when you aren’t looking for it.

With Leo Rising, you are efficient at organizing groups of people and inspiring them to give their best. You are happiest in the role of leader. In fact, you feel wounded if your public doesn’t put you in that position.

When not given what you feel is your due, you can turn haughty, temperamental, and arrogant. Leo is the sign of pride, and Leo Rising individuals have this in abundance. You are self-confident and have a resolute faith in yourself.

There is a basic likeableness about you, partly because you give a distinct impression that life is fun. You have a wonderful sense of humor. (Note: Leo Rising individuals have a particularly soft spot for children and spoil them outrageously.)

As a Leo Rising individual, you tend to have a large, beautifully shaped head, thick shining hair, a dazzling smile with bright, even teeth, and a stately bearing. Many of you are benefited by an inheritance later in your lives. Whatever path you choose to follow, you usually emerge on the sunny side of the hill.

The Sun, which rules Leo, is very prominent in your birth chart. The influence of the Sun bestows enthusiasm, generosity, power, warmth, creative self-expression, passion, and courage. It also encourages egotism, arrogance, snobbism, conceit, pomposity, and condescension.
