yes but even this response is a certain mechanism which i want to understand. thank u for shedding light.

my moms been thru a lottttttttttttt of crap in her life but looked to us children as all she had left so she loved us like crazy and was the best mother ever, until her brother and my brother (her son) also abandoned her. even now i would say she is a good mother albeit has mental issues and temper problems, some depression issues. but it was after her child hurt her , not her husband, that she kinda started going looney, she is a leo.

what do u guys think about leo moms ive always seem them as wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy affectionate. moreso than leo.

love

HMMM..i guess its like if you dont acknowledge the affect that your childhood had on you..how can you see the affect that your way of raising your children will have affect on them?? That was my main reason for wanting to get well emotionally..i wanted to provide my children with the best possible jumping board..hence i need to be well and look at what i do and how it will affect them. While i say this i dont endorse blaming every one of our problems on our parents(we are all human)..but i do believe alot of people are affected and need to work through that to be healthy adults.

The oddest thing I've noticed is that Cancer men are more motherly than Cancer women. That's just my little observation (don't wanna step on any Cancer momma's toes)

i feel that too !!
got two cancer sisters , saw them pretty closely . i think they are a bit more lazy than cancer men especially at home .


isoleade:agree with your asessment too .
i too dont dream of children or family at present .

i feel cancers have a unemotional side to them . may be its to do with the trauma part that u described .
i am quite unemotional to certain people in my life . i dont hate them but its hard for me to love them , now . almost impossible .
i have a feeling , when these feelings get mixed up the blown up ego of cancers and a desire to teach a lesson , things come to thier worst .


quote:
Men: seem to love their children only so much as they love the childrens mother

And the positive aspect of it .
my wife would always be way above my children in my priroity list bcos she would be the one who would give me these children . children are bcos of her not the vice versa .


cancerian moon : salute your guts and determination !

My mom is a Cancer Sun /Cancer Moon/ Scorp rising.. My brother has a Scorp moon and I have an Aries moon... enough said about mommies parenting style LMAO..

No seriously,

My mom had us young- she married my Cappy Sun / Cancer moon dad when she was 20 and had me at 21 years of age. Four years later comes by little bro..another Saggie. So there is Cancer momma with two Saggies and a Cappy Hubby that is in Law Enforcement looking like hunky Benjamin Bratt with women all over him. Too young..both of them.. and Dad has his Venus in the 12th house.

She loves us with a passion and was very protective - but also very resentful for having kids so young and giving up so much. She could not stand sickness, throwing up or fevers. My Leo grandmother stepped in to give us that kind of love. We both learned early to heal quickly and move on because mom wasn't going to be there to read bedtime stories or bring us crayons and color books.

My dad was the story teller.. he was the one that entertained us. Mom was very competitive, especially with me and would kick my butt in Candyland reminding me that the world isn't fair. LOL....

As we got older and more independent it got so much harder on my mom. A divorce in her early 30's left her on her own with the two of us while dad had a new woman. Yet he was still devoted to my bro and I. My mom had a hard time letting go and really came down on me to be the caretaker at home at 12 years of age. I understand it now, but back then it was very hard on me. Then again, it tempered some of my Saggies way and brought me a bit down to earth versus me being that flighty young lady I could have been.

Now that I am older, my mom and I have a better relationship. She still doesn't understand certain things about me. Like how I can be so patient in horrible circumstances (like waiting an extra 4 months to get out of my engagement.... I needed to find a place..LOL) yet if she looked at my past and what her tirades but my bro and I through she would see alot of what I have dealt with in the present /past is cake compared to the environment we had as kids when she would go off.

To her credit though. After the divorce she could have gotten wild like her friends. She was only 33 yet she provided my brother and I with a solid foundation, a good home (even with the emotional tirades - but hell she was hurt) and never left us to hang with her friends or men. She never brought men home at all because she wanted to provide a home where we felt safe. She gave up a lot for us.. and that is something I will never forget.

Sorry so long... but to sum it up. I have a great relationship with her and would do anything for her.. even when she still has her pity parties.. and stress does a big number on her. Still.. my bro and I have that Saggie way of making her laugh even when she is crying. LOL...

I wouldn't trade her in for the world

My grand-aunt is a Cancer/Aries Moon and she’s cold, bossy, and domineering. We don’t think she ever told her 5 kids that she loved them. Her kids (my cousins) are now in their 40s and they are cold/distant too. She doesn’t show her husband any love or warmth. After they got married, she couldn’t live with his loud snoring so she exiled him to a separate bedroom. They still have separate bedrooms after >50 years of marriage (he doesn’t snore anymore). She doesn’t show any emotions and equates love with material status. Basically, her and her children’s perspectives are if you don’t graduate from college and have a professional career that pays big bucks, then you are unworthy. I used to think that she was the way she was because of the strict upbringing she had in Jamaica, but that’s not the case because my grandmother (her sister) is very warm, sweet and loving (Leo/Pisces moon).

A girl I used to work with was a Cancer. She seemed loving toward her daughter but I don’t know what she’s like behind closed doors.

I’m a cancer moon and I love children but I’m not a mother. I tend to be motherly & overprotective toward my loved ones and children. But I can also be cold/detached if I’m in a bad mood. I had a rough childhood and could never put a child through what I been through (abuse & neglect). I’m not sure if I want to be a mother, I’m impartial about bringing a child into this rough world. I am also not sure if I know what it takes to be a good parent without being too overprotective because I don’t want them to grow up with issues or rebel against me.

A typical example of this would be Courtney Love, that used to use heroin and smoke while pregnant and said that motherhood was a drag... She's a Cancer.

But when Cancers get hurt and get into the shell they need security so much that they can't handle anything... I've seen that...

No, conjunctions in Cancer are. For instance, Sun-Mars, Venus-Ascendant, Venus-Mars, Sun-Venus, or Ascendant-Mars. The sign by itself? Nope.

There are a lot of stereotypes in astrology and this is one of them. I also know 2 Cancerian women who don’t wanna be mothers.

Cancerians have protective instincts, not just towards others but towards themselves as well. When their protective instincts are directed inwards, they’re not at all nurturing.

I'm a Cancer moon and I'm not motherly. I can be caring if I love someone but on my own terms. The thought of motherhood is too restrictive for me so I won't have my own children.
Like someone else here said: Cancer can be protective of those who they love but it doesn't necessarily have to be about children.
