Moon in Cancer in the Twelfth 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 (白羊座, 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 关系. 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.

Moon in the 12th House:

The Moon in the 12th House placement indicates that you are drawn out from your emotional involvement at the personal level toward a more universal experience of emotion and caring. Having your Moon in the 12th House, you are called upon to rise above your own concerns and welfare and to lose yourself for the sake of others. This naturally brings to the fore the nurturing and caring functions that are symbolized by the Moon.

With your Moon in the 12th House, you may need to keep a balance between your own health and welfare and that of others, as you may have a tendency to “go overboard” in your concern for others and neglect your own personal needs. Sometimes, you may adopt a “mock martyr” attitude, using your self-sacrificing concern to inflict a “guilt trip” on the recipient of your care. Words like, “I’ve sacrificed so much for you, and this is the thanks I get” are typical of someone with their Moon in the 12th House. When you are balanced, however, one of your strengths may be your ability to be a caring, sensitive and nurturing individual.

不安全感

As an individual with your Moon in the 12th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you are likely to fear that your ego-based personal self will disappear into oblivion. Your psyche tries to push this fear into your subconscious. Your subconscious is also trying to protect your ego from the pull of the unknown. By suppressing your existential fear, however, you create the conditions for deep neuroses to develop and take root in your subconscious.

Having your Moon in the 12th House, in defending your personal self from experiencing of the frightening unknown, you are likely to overcompensate and overemphasize the personal. You may seek to heighten your awareness of your personal self by “turning up the volume” on your feelings and emotions. With your Moon in the 12th House, you may also try to create a sense of security and self-importance by creating situations in which you becomes a care-provider to dependent others. You will tend to nurture these 关系 in order to entrap the others involved, and hold onto their dependency. This may involve a good deal of deception on your part.

情感发展的重点

With your Moon in the 12th House, your emotional development often takes place quietly and almost imperceptibly, influenced by subtle and unseen forces. Your emotions are likely to develop in the direction of greater sensitivity. Your capacity for compassion is also likely to be developed to a greater extent than in most people. If, however, the forces influencing your emotional development are negative, growing fear and neuroticism may be the result. Having your Moon in the 12th House, the ultimate goal of your emotional development is that of self-transcendence.
