Check your chart to see which planets you have in Cancer. Then, scroll down to read all about how that planet acts in Cancer AND what that means for your life's purpose.

Also...any aspects to a planet (lines on your chart connecting it with another planet) flavor that planet's expression, so if you feel less Cancer-like, this may be why.

☉ Sun: The Sun rules ego, core sense of self and greatest expression of purpose.

With your sun in Cancer, Cancer qualities, characteristics and lessons are the most important aspects of your life's purpose. 

You're here to use your intuition, master your emotions and advocate for others who can't advocate for themselves.

Embrace your divine feminine energy (regardless of your sex or gender), to move intuitively through your life.

Heal yourself, especially in the area of life Cancer occupies in your chart (house Cancer is in), so you can help others heal themselves.

☾ Moon: The moon rules emotions and intuition. It likes to be in Cancer. It feels like home.

With your moon in Cancer your intuition speaks to you through your emotions and feelings.

To do what your purpose requires of you, you need to create a sense of emotional safety and security within yourself.

This helps you connect more deeply to your intuition, so you can trust the information that is coming to and through you.

Then you can use it to guide your life's path to purpose, which no doubt includes your natural intuitive and healing powers.

☿ Mercury: Mercury is all about thought and communication.

With your Mercury in Cancer, your mind is very connected to your feelings. 

It's important for your mental health that you process your emotions and NOT ignore them.

You are here to use your words to advocate for others. Your words can create a sense of safety for other humans, as they are very healing.

Be mindful though, not to speak from an unregulated emotional state, as your words can be impactful in a harmful way.

♂Mars: Mars rules action, courage and bravery. Mars hates being in Cancer, as Cancer is very other-driven, while Mars is more self-focused.

With your Mars here, though, you have the capacity to be a powerful advocate and healer for others.

Mars in Cancer can be emotionally fiery, so be mindful of the emotions behind the actions you take. 

Ask yourself which emotions are driving the actions you feel motivated to take.

Once it's clear which emotions are driving your actions, check in to consider, if that's going to create your desired outcome.

If it feels aligned with your values, then do the thing.

If it's coming from feelings of competition, impulsiveness, anger or aggression, don't take action. You'll be making a mess you have to clean up and heal from later.

♀Venus: With your Venus in Cancer you love to make others feel safe, secure and cared for by you.

You have the gift to love fiercely and advocate for others from your fierce love. Your love is healing for those around you.

You're here to create healing + sensual experiences that feel soul nourishing for others.

♃ Jupiter: Jupiter loves being in Cancer. It's exalted here. Jupiter brings wisdom and in Cancer it uses that wisdom to advocate for + heal others.

With your Jupiter in Cancer you have the gift of emotional integrity, especially in the area of life Cancer + Jupiter occupy (check the house placement in your chart).

Throughout your life you will gain wisdom through experience, which you can use as ointment to heal others.

♄ Saturn: Saturn is the planet of discipline, responsibility and hard work.

Saturn doesn't like to be in Cancer. It's in its detriment. Saturn wants something concrete and practical, while Cancer wants something fluid and emotional.

With Saturn in Cancer you're a serious advocate for others.

You can become a grounded healer with the ability to take the emotional + intuitive and make it practical +  grounded, so others can use your wisdom to improve their everyday lives.

♅ Uranus: Uranus brings change, disruption and innovation. 

With your Uranus in Cancer you're here to be an unconventional healer whose methods are outside of the box and ahead of their time.

♆ Neptune: There haven't been any humans born with this placement since 1916. The next generation with this placement won't be born until 2065.

♇ Pluto: Pluto is the planet of transformation and energy alchemy.

With your Pluto in Cancer you're here to be a transformative healer whose not afraid of traversing all things considered dangerous or taboo.
