To all with Cancer rising-Do you also tend to suck all the energies surrounding you and feel like you must have a rather weak personality to be affected by everything and everyone around you so much ? Have you ever had periods in your life when you had more strict control over what and who you were letting in and periods when you just wanted to leave it all and go sailing all by yourself so that you could empty your brain from all the rubbish ? How do you deal with your sensitivity ? IP: Logged |

I was asking swirlbut yeah...Moon conjunct Neptune is supposed to be psychic emotional sponge...so yeah it can easily absorb stuff around them...even without a Cancer Rising my mom has Ascendant,Mercury,Venus,Jupiter,and Uranus in Cancer along with Moon and Saturn in Scorpio............so even without the Cancer Ascendant, she's extremely sensitive person and can easily absorb stuff in her surroundings.
her Sun,Neptune,and Pluto are in a minor grand trine(3 Sun-Pluto-Neptune midpoint pictures)...so a lot of sensitivity there too. She also has Sun in 12th house too like Sun in Pisces...well she has that Neptune aspect to it...so Sun-Neptune double whammy. Her father had Moon in Pisces,and so did my father. That fits right with her animus of Sun in 12th trine Neptune. I have a Moon-Neptune double whammy with my Moon in Pisces square Neptune. these things seem to run in families. I am fascinated by astro-heredity,astro-genetics. IP: Logged |

Yes to your questions.
I get so much built up without me knowing actually and I have trouble crying too.
Until a year ago I was able to cry at the drop of a hat when I was very, very, depressed but it wasn't the good 'relief' type of crying.
I think it has something to do with my Scorpio Moon squared Mars. I don't want to 'look' weak so I put up with my situation and tell everyone I don't give a **** and then ending up growing the pain inside...I was relieved when I got to cry a month ago and my mom told me, "you know Esther, I think you're just very sensitive." Sometimes I don't know what causes my pain...I tend to worry excessively about things and other people when there's no need to. I fall asleep at night thinking about unecessary thoughts and many times this continues during my sleep in my dreams and I wake up feeling fatigued. When I am tired, I don't want to talk to anyone, or rather, I can't talk.
I prefer to veg out and watch something on tv and relax.
Lately I've been telling myself, "These are not my problems and I shouldn't worry." I don't have an outlet to deal with my sensitivity. I accept that I am the way I am even though I don't like it and I am very guarded until I really, really, really know you and trust you...and this may take years... Taurus/Scorpio/Cancer

Glaucus- Well I have Neptune in Sag in 6th house and the aspects it forms are,venus(libra) square neptune
mars(virgo) square neptune
neptune sextile pluto(scorp) I have no other cancer in my chart except for some midpoints aspects moon midpoint venus in cancer
moon midpoint mars in cancer
Taurean/scorpion-
' I don't want to 'look' weak so I put up with my situation and tell everyone I don't give a **** and then ending up growing the pain inside..' 'When I am tired, I don't want to talk to anyone, or rather, I can't talk.' I know what you mean  And it's so hard to stay away from negativity when it comes to friends and family. Oddly enough, I'm usually the one to start suggestiing solutions to whoever is complaining about, I know it's useless but I can't help it ! I have scorpio sun, but Sag is the sign that shows up the most in my chart and I have aries moon so I actually hate being mentally slowed down by such things because then it ends up physically affecting me as well.

i have a sag friend with cancer rising who has been described by a friend as a "black hole", i.e. she sucks all the energy out of the room!! she picks up on people's pain like a magnet and she is the last person i would admit any insecurity, sorrow or confusion to because she just COMPOUNDS it. almost vampirish...of course she suffers from this too, and deals with it by sleeping most of her unoccupied hours away, being unable to sleep at night! and falling asleep in front of the tv with monotonous regularity...IP: Logged |

*I know what you mean And it's so hard to stay away from negativity when it comes to friends and family. Oddly enough, I'm usually the one to start suggestiing solutions to whoever is complaining about...*Gosh I can relate to you on that. Family, friends (including coworkers) all call me to ask about something their scared to do or to talk to me about their problems.
The thing about this is that I only get 'problem' calls. I like giving advice and just listen to their issues but I have issues myself and so few are willing to listen sincerely for ME in return. I don't mind it too much but It's draining.
A gf calls all the time and only talks about her issues with guys. I give her advice and she never listens to me, and calls me again with the same cr*p unfortunately. I guess this is what you mean by "useless" suggestions to their complaints. Swirl-kitt,
My mom's a Scorpio with Sag Moon and she's a Pisces Asc. So you guys are similar with Water/Fire/Water as big threes.
Ya'll are very generous people and give so much.

Am Buddhist so detachment is highly valued to begin with. I don't see this sensitivity as weakness knowing I have the choice of what to let in, there will always be those whom I can't help, so be it.I try to use my sensitivity in positive ways; to maintain relationship with those I care, to impress new faces I want to impress. To me the key to handle sensitivity is simply knowing it's there in you. Be sensible with it. ------------------

Yes it is too much at times to be an emotional tuning fork. Picking up on all the moods of everyone around is distressing, it just makes me feel like I am weak in such a way...there are times when I feel I have get away from people for needed solitude...or I call it 'nurturing solitude' to replenish my energies ------------------

Yes, absolutely I have had times when I can strictly filter out what goes in and out. Right now, Im in one of those "phases" - I just block people's energies out according to where I am in life - and right now I am stressed! I am more "open" to energies when I am relaxed and happy with my personal life.

i'm a mess emotionally, letting everything or nothing entering without having the slightest clue why. a mess. sometimes things affect me and sometimes the same situation leaves me cold. but since a couple of months, i cry everydays several times a day. for whatever reason. i feel like waves of tears and sadness submerging me. and i spend most time alone cause i don't think i can handle anyone's emotional needs right now. i started a therapy. lol
by the way, thanks for bringing up this topic *crying and hiding his face*

Praecipua-
I'm sure it will all pass ! *hugs* I went through a similar phase a couple of years ago and I hated talking about things that upset me but although it felt awful for a long while, all that crying and talking seemed to help- eventually it became boring lol. I think it's crucial to have that 'nurturing solitude' Libraschoice suggests from time to time for people who get overwhelmed by things.IP: Logged |
