Any Sag Sun/Cancer Moon People Out There—

How do you deal with the emotional cancer and optimistic sag? Sometimes i feel like those dramatic faces where one is happy and the other is sad. I can't remember what they call them but it usually represents the theatre. Or even better the Two-Face character from the Batman movie...lol. The internal conflict can be draining.

I don't have a response for you but would like to hear more about this - I'm dating a sag with a moon in cancer but who's venus is in scorpio - so he can be intense; but how does the emotional cancer play out vs. the sag sun aspect with you? Make sense?

I don't like drama but love excitement. I can withdraw (not answer phone, stay in the house) from people if I don't feel like being bothered...nothing personal but I like time to myself. Then if i feel like being bothered i love to hang out and travel and go places. I can be clingy and emotional with someone i like but if i don't care about you..."oh well" is my saying...lol. People consider me the strong one who takes care of business. Everyone comes to me for their problems. When I have problems I keep them to myself and deal with it. No one would believe all of the insecurities I have. When I sulk it isn't for long because the Sag in me won't let me stay down...i have to get over it and make a plan to conquer whatever it is. The emotional side I keep to myself...i only let people see the Sag side. It's an internal battle that I have to do my best to balance because if I don't...the emotional side will have me down and I will withdraw only expending energy on the things I have to do to make it through the day. If I have things on my mind I am quiet...constantly thinking and analyzing trying to figure it out...what to do...how to do it.

In a relationship, when I committ to someone I am loyal, faithful and dependable. I can be hurt easily sometimes by what a mate says but then I can brush it off and don't hold a grudge. I can forgive but never forget. I am a pleaser. I like to make people laugh. I can make jokes one minute and then take you into a serious, deep conversation the next.

My Moon isnt cancer but Im Sag, Cancer rising with moon in Scorpio

If you think about it in general, emotion and optimism can be a very nice balance. We get to feel life deeply but with the ability to find the positive or pick yourself back up.

I relate to most of what you wrote. Like the being sometimes needy, and other times indifferent and self-absorbed. Love for excitement and laughs mingled with serious and deep. How do I deal? The more I grow, age and learn to accept myself.. or even look objectively at it, like with astrology... the more all my parts blend into one self-identity. I know I'm moody. If someone asks me something about myself its very likely I'd reply that the answer depends on my mood! But I didnt always know that about myself. Im fire, and highly mutable (not one earth planet in my chart).
I know Im deep and search for meaning. Passionate. So what if someone catches me crying at a commercial. There's lots of things about me that are .. well, I know I have my faults, like the indifference etc. I try lately to see the bigger picture of 'me'. Acceptance was an important word back there. Like you, I have insecurities. Some have been lessening though, as I learn to honestly like myself, complete with all the oddities and being eccentric!

Honestly though, ponder if the conflict you feel is more one of expression. Or that emotion is being viewed as all sad or negative.

I'm a sag sun/moon cancer.
I feel like my life is pretty much together in every aspect except that of romance, like you when i fall, i fall deeply. I can't help it that i'm a completely hopeless idealistic romantic! I used to have some major freakouts when my emotions were aroused (due of course to keeping most of my feelings inside) but I've finally learned the best way to deal with the excess emotional energy (esp if you are heartbroken) is by taking up some physical activity: weather it's a long walk or mountain biking or something more creative like throwing paint at the wall. It also helps to have a good relationship with someone who is both logical and sympathetic to help talk through any problems that you might have.

However, there are a ton of amazing things about sun sag/ cancer moon polarity. The sag love for learning, and the cancer ability of amazing memory makes us some incredibly fast learners, and not just ones that learn and forget, but ones who gain knowledge and retain it well. As long as you don't have any strange aspects in your chart that would insist otherwise, you are probably also someone with the ability to get anything you really want. It also probably means you have a vast variety of friends and acquaintances and click very quickly with people. The only sad thing being that most of these friendships can seem rather shallow to you, due to your nature to expect so much from people emotionally, but the close friends you do have are definitely blessed. In romance it is very difficult and you may seem to always be attracting the wrong person. Like you said that most people view you as the strong one (confident) this is going to attract most likely very stoic dudes (or ladies) but once you finally let that emotional side show your mates may be surprised (even frightened) by the depths of which you feel.
