My Virgo friend has Mars in Cancer. She gets very manipulative, sociopathic when she is upset. When she found out her boyfriend lied to her (or cheated on her, I can't remember) she ruined his Mac computer by microwaving it. When they were on the final rocks of their relationships and he was juggling her and another girl, she confessed to the other girl what had been going on in a way that didn't totally relieve her of guilt, but was true enough that the girl broke up with my friend's guy. She lied about her grandpa being sick so he'd spend more time with her.... manipulative.

In all fairness, though, I think that most normal people would be upset if their boyfriend was cheating. I also think that she did the right thing by telling the new girl and warning her. She may have gone a bit far by messing up his computer, but he shouldn't have lied or cheated. He betrayed her, she betrayed him back. Is it healthy to go that far? Probably not. But is it understandable that she'd be upset? Yes; I think that most people would be upset, even if they didn't take it to that level.

Lying about her grandfather, I'll give you that one--that is manipulative.

As others have said here, even though my Cancer Mars is in the 8th and trine Pluto, I can react in a wavering and unpredictable way when angry. Meaning, sometimes I will get angry immediately, but then other times I will get angry FAR too long after the fact. It confuses people a lot. I'll get extremely mad and emotional over things that have happened - especially with close family members! - from even years back. I think this is the Cancer's classic 'passive aggressive stance' coming out in a very weird way for me.

But when I do get mad, the Mercury square makes me say some of the vilest things you will ever hear. I don't just hurl random insults or curses: I'm cold, calculative, and fiery beneath the collar all at once from the Mercury-Pluto mix. I've slapped and even punched people when I finally EXPLODED from this placement, and it shocks the hell out of people I know to hear about it!!

Due to Pluto being in the 12th, after going on these displays of power and rage I often go into private and wallow and cry. A lot.

That seems hard
Could you list your aspects with orbs. I would like to think about them a bit.

This article only applies to me about 35-40% of the time. I'm a Cancer Sun/Asc/and Mars...but my Sun and Mars touch Uranus, and all three are Conjunct in the 1st house. In fact my strongest planet is Mars. So I have NO problem being straight forward or confrontational...and I do tend to be very direct and aggressive when I want something. I think because the Cancer Mars on it's own is so weak the house placement maybe in a way overshadows it.

One thing is I can't actually deal with other Cancer Mars who don't have strong placements...I don't tend to get them. Which is a shame...they seem really nice and my bluntness tends to hurt them. It's crazy what house placement will do to a planet.
