sorry if these thoughts are somewhat incoherent. i just needed to voice something that's been on my mind lately. this will be long. get something to snack on. don't worry, this is not a: OMG I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HIM, HELP ME PLEASE topic. Just hear me out.i met this guy over the summer who is a cancer sun, leo moon. we're not interesting in each other in a romantic way at all and we get a long pretty well - a lot of empathy. we share cancer sun and gemini venus, and he has cancer mars while i have pisces mars.
he's a student in film and is actually doing very well for himself and is an actor, but he's also very home oriented in true cancer fashion. a lot of pride in himself and his father (also in film).
when i first met him, i totally pinned him down as a leo sun, cancer moon but it turned out to be the opposite (or switched?), whichever.
so my thoughts right now are this:
all i've ever heard are bad things about cancer men, especially here. not that all cancer men are bad (as is in all the other signs), but the impression i have from both experience with my ex-boss, a very brief ex-high school boyfriend, and from what i've heard from many women and read on here is this:
cancer men + relationship = DRAMA / just not worth the effort.
whenever i meet a cancer sun male, we've gotten along. however, i've always reminded myself that if we get involved things will get complicated, esp. since i'm cancer sun/scorpio moon. i'll admit it... my love life... full of unusual amounts of emotions and drama.
i digress. as i try to stay away from cancer males, i've also tried to stay away from leo mooners even more so. i dunno why, but there's an emotional power struggle in the end over really serious issues. we ALWAYS become instant best friends in the beginning though... it's weird. most of the leo mooners i've met are female and three of them were aries, one gemini, and then there was the one scorpio sun male. all of them i have lost most contact with. i really can't explain why it is we attract to each other so quickly and how our friendship falls apart just as quickly, but that's the way it is and because of it is whenever i run a chart for someone i just met if they have leo moon and i make a huge note of that in my mind.
moving on, gemini venus. i have it and all i have to say is you either hate us or love us. and most of the time you love us, lol. because we're friendly... too friendly. and so i could never deal with ANOTHER gemini venus. the end.
SO back this guy. He's pretty much the entire package of everything in my life I have avoided: the moody Cancer Male with a dramatic Leo Moon with the flirtatious Gemini Venus. You'd think he'd be the biggest d-bag in the whole world, but he's actually the sweetest, down-to-earth male I have ever met EVER. Too bad we're not attracted too each other (too much similarity. we'd either a) kill each other with boredom b) actually just kill each other or c) get married, have a trillion kids, buy a mansion to put them all in, and he'd stay in the bedroom surrounded with camera equipment and Apple hardware with a hand radio to the kitchen in case he gets hungry while I stay in the kitchen with my computer equipment, newspaper, and a hand radio to the bedroom in case i'm feeling randy), I'd marry him in an instant, lol.
So I guess my point is that while you put stereotypes on different signs you want to stay away from and how different planets would effect you, the universe throws you some pleasant surprises and even at times discredits everything you think you know about astrology in general... but at the same time it manifests in a way that makes complete sense?? I dunno. I'm becoming too philosophical and i'm starting to feel the hangover kick in, lol.
so that's my two cents. happy saturday!
