So what happens when the sun enters Cancer? Feelings, lots and lots of feelings. Cancer, a water sign ruled by the moon is a whirlwind of emotions. Cancers are intelligent, nurturing, and passionate. When we’re in Cancer season, it feels we are on an emotional rollercoaster. One moment we’re laughing, and sobbing hysterically the next. We can fall hopelessly in love at first sight or drown in nostalgia. While we were traveling and moving in Gemini season, this month we’re homebodies, desiring to stay at home with loved ones or just watching sad movies and crying (no judgment).
If you are an emotion sign like Pisces, Scorpio, or Libra, you’ll find that your emotional intuition is strong this month. But if you are more logical (looking at you, earth signs), this is going to a rough month of mood swings, with just too many emotions to process.
So how do you survive Cancer season? Embrace your emotions! Allow yourself to follow your heart and feel every emotion that comes out. Cancer is a water sign, known for its depth, so your emotions are coming to the surface for a reason. This is a season to heal from old emotional wounds. Cancer encourages us to love more, show compassion, and spread joy. However, don’t lose your head when you follow your heart and not get to hung up on the pain of the past. Feel and move on.
If you’re struggling with the emotional waves of Cancer season (too many feels ? ), here are 15 quotes that will guide you through it.
