Cancer is synonymous with home. It's interesting to note that the symbol for this sign is a crab, which is covered by a shell (their home). Ruling over the 4th House, Cancer reminds you to go back home sometimes since it's always calling for you like a siren of the sea. Familiar sounds and smells bring about a nostalgia you can't get out of your head, but that's okay because those are probably some of your first memories. It's also a good place to start if you want to know more about yourself on a metaphysical level. We're the products of bloodlines that have stretched for thousands and thousands of years and across all inhabitable lands. Our genes and DNA tell a story and I think Cancer has the best chance of interpreting that book.
It's important however, to grow as an individual away from the comforts of home since that's where the moodiness of this sign creeps in. Cancer doesn't want to let go, but sometimes you have to for your own well-being. Don't be afraid to step away from your shell. You're not abandoning who are you and where you come from, you're simply outgrowing yesterday's you.
All throughout history people had to make that decision to leave home in search of a better place. Cancer energy shakes you up from the constant pulling of the past, your emotions, uncertainty about the future, and that desire to express yourself completely. Ultimately, the best course of action is to trust your God given intuition. Don't worry! Your soul has thousands of years of experience to pull from. You can thank your ancestors for that.
Anywho, like everything else this is all my interpretation.
Have a great month my crabby brehs and brehettes!
