Interpretation

The Moon is at home in Cancer — its domicile. Your emotional life is rich, deep, and central to everything you do. Memory, family, and belonging are not abstract concepts to you; they are the foundation of your inner world. You feel everything intensely and remember everything that mattered. The danger is moodiness and emotional manipulation. The gift is a capacity for nurturing that heals.
