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

With a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, self-acceptance is your greatest gift. Unlike most Leos, you do not feel the compulsion to prove your greatness to the world. You are confident and self-assured, and others think highly of you because you think highly of yourself. All this is enhanced by your acute sensitivity and compassion for others.

Having a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, you are creative, highly emotional, open-minded, and above all imaginative, with the proper motivation you could achieve anything—if you had any ambition. That, unfortunately, is the one thing you lack.

As an individual with a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, because of your unquestioning self-acceptance and lack of inner conflict, you run the risk of settling for far less than you are capable of accomplishing. Since your inner nature is free of many of the hang-ups and much of inner turmoil that plague so many others, you risk adopting an attitude of smug complacency. You’re too easily contented, and that which is pleasing interests you more than that which is rewarding and fulfilling. Thus your potential often lies dormant, and your special talents untapped.

With a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, you are also a very proud individual—both a strength and a weakness. Self-respect reinforces your inner strength to overcome obstacles, but it also leads to arrogance and the inability to humble yourself to learn a craft or develop your talents so they may be successfully explored and expressed. Re-examine your goals in life. Are all your talents really being utilized? Are you involved in an activity or job that will lead to a more secure future?

Having a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, charm, intuition, and subtlety combine to give you excellent business acumen, but your imagination and originality are more suited to creative endeavors—particularly in the field of drama and the visual media. Many Leo Sun Cancer Moon individuals are attracted to religion. And some will find themselves involved in charitable work, spending much time helping the disabled or poor. Leo-Cancers excel as counselors, psychologists, teachers, and in running charitable enterprises.

As an individual with a Leo Sun Cancer Moon, a secure and tranquil domestic life is very important to your overall happiness. As with all natives of Moon in Cancer, you need the comfort and stability of a home base of operations. Family-oriented, you take great pride in your spouse and children.

Highly romantic and idealistic, you know how to give-and-take in love. Your natural curiosity will no doubt lead you through many romantic affairs before you finally choose a partner and settle down. Once you do, however, you are loyal and devoted. And your partner knows that you can be counted on.

Keywords For A Leo Sun Cancer Moon:

Cancer Rising

If you have Cancer Rising, you are very sensitive to emotional signals from other people. You have extraordinary insight into human motivation. There is a reserve about you that is sometimes difficult to penetrate, but underneath is a warm, affectionate, loving, and giving nature.

With Cancer Rising, you are adaptable to different kinds of people even though you are not liable to make instant friendships. It takes a while for you to let someone get really close.

Cancer Rising individuals tend to moodiness, and others may not always find you in a receptive frame of mind. Sometimes you can be crabby and impatient and exhibit a snappish temper. You are touchy, and others have to be careful of what they say lest they hurt your feelings. Your sensitivities are so heightened that you sometimes take offense where none was intended.

However, with Cancer Rising, this same sensitivity is what sets you apart from the crowd. You possess great imagination and awareness. Many Cancer Rising individuals are extraordinarily gifted as writers, poets, and painters. Because you are so tuned in to the nuances of other people’s motivations, you are able to absorb what others are feeling and thinking. You pick up opinions, thoughts, facts from all around you and, being very clever and practical (as well as visionary), you are able to put all this information to work for you.

Cancer Rising individuals are also clever with money, prudent and cautious, and have a native shrewdness in business. You know how to make wise investments and where to get the best value. Though you usually have to climb the ladder through your own efforts (rather than the efforts of others), you are likely to accumulate material success as the years go by.

You won’t hog the spotlight, but on the other hand you want public recognition for your talents. With Cancer Rising, acclaim and applause can be hard to come by, so you tend to have a way of feeling sorry for yourself. You complain that the world does not appreciate you, but your complaint is usually an effort to win reassurance that quite the opposite is true.

As a Cancer Rising you have obstacles in your path, especially when young. However, as you surmount each difficulty and succeed (Cancer Rising has great tenacity of purpose), you become stronger and more self-assured.

If you have Cancer Rising, you are likely to have a round expressive face, pale luminous eyes, slender arms and legs, and a rolling gait to your walk. Your body may be thickset through the middle, and you are prone toward putting on weight as you get older.

The Moon, which rules Cancer, is very prominent in your birth chart. The influence of the Moon bestows kindness, imagination, sympathy, deep emotion, an ability to cherish and protect, a retentive memory. It also encourages laziness, inconstancy, restlessness, passivity, and untidiness.
