Cancers NOT early risers

It seems to me that on the whole Cancers are definitely not early risers by nature: I have read this and it seems to be true. My sister is one and if I text her at say 8.30am she complains that it is too early in the morning. And my Cancer niece seems to sleep very late (even my sister thinks so!) I suppose that being ruled by the Moon Cancers are natural "night owls" and are in no hurry to greet daylight.

As a Virgo I tend to get on well with Cancers in general except for this as like most Virgos (I think) I AM something of an early riser.

But do you actually ENJOY getting up early?

If I sleep late I don't ferl right. Latest I sleep is 8am. Too much to do.

I'm a night owl for sure. Always have been. The problem with that is that life makes me have to get up around 6 or 7, and there's a very bad habit of not getting enough sleep. If it's a full moon it's even worse, and I'll stay wired until 2-3 a.m before conking out. I'm constantly torn between what I naturally want to do (stay up late) vs. what life demands of me (get up early). I absolutely love how dark and quiet it is in the middle of the night. Funny thing, though, I also love being awake just before sunrise, hearing the birds waking up, seeing the sunrise change the colors. I was born on a full solar eclipse. Apparently I'll always have that sun/moon pull of wanting both.

I never go to bed or wake up at the same time but when I'm not working I'm usually up at 0730 go to bed around midnight. I usually don't sleep anymore than 7.5-8 hours of sleep.

Eh, I don't necessary like to sleep in very late now, because I always like having a morning, but it always seems to me that I wake up late. That might because I have a very bad habit of finally going to sleep around 2-3 in the morning, which I've been trying to stop. I need more courage to get to bed earlier.

No Cancer can outsleep the average Leo....I'm a night owl, usually awake till 2am but can't sleep past 10am when I have nothing to do(weekends) .

My Boss (Cancer sun) also an early riser, I think it depends which family feels stronger for each individual. He is one of the best bosses I know and is there for his employees, wich he calls "his people".

I bet you

Not at all an early riser...thank Cernunnos for graveyard shift jobs.

I stay awake for a looooooong time and then sleep for a loooooooooong time. I'm self employed if that matters.
