Mercury in cancer

This topic was created in the Cancer forum by ariesleo5eva on Wednesday, May 10, 2017 and has 25 replies.

Why Mercury in Cancer Men Withdraw When They Like You

Mercury in Cancer men tend to withdraw to protect their feelings and process emotions when they like someone. This behavior is a form of emotional self-preservation, making them appear distant or slow to respond, even if they are interested. Understanding their need for emotional security helps improve communication and patience.

I consider cancer in merc to be one of my favorite placement but I get why it would be frustrating to some...

I consider merc the the way you express your self to others

Cancer in Merc express themselves in a gentle and CAREFUL way

Whats his sun, moon, Venus, and mars

And your sun, moon, merc, Venus, mars

I was going to ask why you think his Cancer Mercury is at fault. Generally you want to look at the guy's Moon, Venus, or Mars. As a Libra Moon he is looking for a partner ship

I'm a Leo Sun with Cancer Mercury which means I have a more "emotional" way of speaking. I think along the lines of how my words will affect how other people feel. We typically say, "think, feel, seems, probably" a lot because we don't want to make a definite statement that may negatively affect others. Speaking in general terms makes our words more digestible. That isn't to say that we can't be direct, but we prefer to account for everything when we speak.

Having a Libra Moon means this Leo will be more focused on peaceful situations and creating balance. Libra Moons can get caught up in how people perceive them (what other people think). The somewhat brash nature of Aries though may be cause for Alarm for a Libra Moon (not necessarily), but I would look into his Venus and Mars placements too.

wow, I never answered your Q. but I think it's his mercury because he is emotional but he doesn't like to show it (he gets hidden offended easily) I know he has gotten mad at me and hasn't told me about it there's been times we talked via text and he didn't respond because I unintentionally hurt his feelings or he'll see me talking to a guy via social media and he won't respond that makes me think thats his cancer peaking out

My guess would be his Venus in Gemini and Mars in Virgo. Both are looking for more mental stimulation and aren't going to push for anything romantic in the beginning. There will be back and forth here as the person tries to figure you out.

That's his Libra Moon wanting a more peaceful scenario. Cancer Mercury people can come across as being sensitive by the way we talk and may seem "hesitant" or slow to act. That can make us seem sensitive to an Aries Sun or Moon person. Cancer Mercury likes to digest all of the information first and make a well informed decision. So this Leo may be uncomfortable with being impulsive.

Just know that he'll be focused on creating well balanced scenarios. That's not to say that he can't rise to a challenge, but he'll probably be less abrasive about it.

Cancer Mercs absolutely suck at communication. Too vague and ambiguous and not in a mysterious way either..

Jesus yes!! and I always have to play mind games see what these fuckers will do is show you how they feel thru action and not directly tell you until they feel comfortable and that takes forever

Just know that he'll be focused on creating well balanced scenarios. That's not to say that he can't rise to a challenge, but he'll probably be less abrasive about it.

see that is the problem I am full blown aries impulsive as fuck! I really do act first think later. and you are exactly right he is toooooooo slow with decisions I want committment my impulsive self tried to tell him that because I swear he was hinting out that he was ready i felt so embarassed when he ran I had to play it off like I was joking which hurt my feelings when I flat out told him what I wanted he lied and was indirect and I knew he was but I ( being prideful as hell) played along we've been casually talking for 9 months how long is this going to take -_________________________-

To be fair, 9 months is a long time by fire sign standards. Granted Libra energy can be pretty indecisive. Libra energy needs to mull things over and can't be pressured into making a decision. Libra Moons tend to be more decisive than Libra Suns, but this need for balance is still one to watch out for when it comes to romance.

Have you guys just been talking or have you been dating as well? If you haven't been out on dates, go ahead and start pushing for those. You did nothing wrong really, but you want to make sure that the Leo has been clear regrding your romantic intent these last 9 months.

I would also recommend giving this Leo some space to come back to you. Sounds like you've been pursuing him a bit. There's nothing wrong with this as long as he's reciprocating interest. If he backs away, let him come to you and be clear with your intent. He's still a Leo after all, the direct approach is always best.

My ex was Mercury in cancer, when he likes someone he goes after them but he's also a Leo sun

hmmm interesting! what was his moon sign? my guy is sun in leo as well but his moon is in libra maybe thats where the indirectness is coming from

I was going to ask why you think his Cancer Mercury is at fault. Generally you want to look at the guy's Moon, Venus, or Mars. As a Libra Moon he is looking for a partner ship

I'm a Leo Sun with Cancer Mercury which means I have a more "emotional" way of speaking. I think along the lines of how my words will affect how other people feel. We typically say, "think, feel, seems, probably" a lot because we don't want to make a definite statement that may negatively affect others. Speaking in general terms makes our words more digestible. That isn't to say that we can't be direct, but we prefer to account for everything when we speak.

Having a Libra Moon means this Leo will be more focused on peaceful situations and creating balance. Libra Moons can get caught up in how people perceive them (what other people think). The somewhat brash nature of Aries though may be cause for Alarm for a Libra Moon (not necessarily), but I would look into his Venus and Mars placements too.

wow, I never answered your Q. but I think it's his mercury because he is emotional but he doesn't like to show it (he gets hidden offended easily) I know he has gotten mad at me and hasn't told me about it there's been times we talked via text and he didn't respond because I unintentionally hurt his feelings or he'll see me talking to a guy via social media and he won't respond that makes me think thats his cancer peaking out

That's his Libra Moon wanting a more peaceful scenario. Cancer Mercury people can come across as being sensitive by the way we talk and may seem "hesitant" or slow to act. That can make us seem sensitive to an Aries Sun or Moon person. Cancer Mercury likes to digest all of the information first and make a well informed decision. So this Leo may be uncomfortable with being impulsive.

Just know that he'll be focused on creating well balanced scenarios. That's not to say that he can't rise to a challenge, but he'll probably be less abrasive about it.

BOOM! you have hit the nail on the head I do think I've been pressuring him so I shall take this approach lol thank you seeing others POV definitely helps and we've been out a couple of times so yes I would call it dating. We haven't been out together in months due to him being on the run with family events (which I am okay with its fam first always) I do want to address that I miss him and we need a night out together BUT again I am scared to lol

Interesting. Well it sounds like this is unfair to you and this guy may even be stringing you along. When a Leo cares about someone, we definitely won't spend months away from them. We won't even spend weeks away from them if we can help it. If this guy can't even be around you for long periods of time, I doubt he wants anything serious with you. Family is indeed important, but being gone for months is a bit much. Likewise, why would you want to be with someone who runs so often?
