in fact i like it when a person is proud of his background, because i love to learn about cultures so i dont like it when for example someone who is raised in a western country but is not by etnicity and he cant speak the language or know little to nothing of his origin.

so im both a natural lover of all the diverse cultures and proud of my own background.

my venus is in sag/stellium.

my saturn is in scorpio.

Hmmm! I have a Cancer Saturn son, but couldn't figure out how it manifests in his personality. But now that you mention it, he is more interested in bedding than anyone else in the family! Like if we go to a department store he just looks longingly at the beautiful bed displays.

Even though he's not materialistic, he wants his bed and bedroom just right. He keeps it clean, has a little lamp clipped to his bunk, is mindful of his stuffed animals and the books he keeps handy.

Despite wanting a super fantastic bedroom, he just makes the best of his humble little set-up. I think he holds nice bedroom furniture so much in awe that he would actually be overwhelmed to the point of discomfort if he suddenly got that dream room. (Sounds weird, but you would have to know my son.)

That to me would be Cancer Saturn.

I have Sag Venus-Neptune and love the whole world. My own roots are okay but I have such an intense case of wanderlust these last couple of years, I take my own roots for granted. Just get me out of here!

The bed is the den. Or the duvet and borders of the bed the shell in Cancerian terms, if you like.

But my example was based in reality, too, so it can presumably go both ways. Just as long as the bed (or whatever the security-related thing for each?) is the way it's wanted.

What about being particular about history or surrounds otherwise, the way such things are supposed to tie to Cancer in some ways? Food, what have you, security related things ranging from earning money to be secure enough to having the childhood security blanket and toys safe and sound even as an adult, all that? Though especially as a Saturn in Cancer, can you ever be secure enough?

@PC

Yes, trying to make it to India! Which would be super difficult and expensive, but we still have our eye on it. Thinking of sailing there, actually.

Not at all, I actually grew up in a third world country and have been traveling since an early age. Traveled back and forth from US *where I am born* to my parents birth country as a child..too many times =S.

No, I don't strongly prefer my own culture to others, but I am very proud of it. I actually do not like men from my parent's birth country I tend to go for other types (same culture, different countries & love Americanized ones and/or white men in general).

And nope..I try a little bit of every food from diff. countries, but within the same culture if that makes sense (Hispanic culture has many countries, but different food, etc - even though it's a culture technically we are all different - just sort of speak the same language). So for my chart I suppose Sag. takes on more of a religious role than traveling + it's in the 9th house so it makes complete sense to me.

I can't think of any Scorpio Saturns that I know personally, but that'd be my guess for how they'd feel.

No worries for you. I'm here to see about my grandmother, who's been a bit more poorly. So... ties to the family and maternal/moon/Cancer side there, too. It was my choice to come here and stay longer still at least until her catarract operation is sorted, to help with eyedrops after that. The circumstances up in Lapland just aren't ideal to a Southern city-person. Nothing is wrong or lacking just now or per se, but if it's a half an hour drive just to get to groceries, I seem to lean toward hoarding once there.

So, stuff Saturn in Cancer says:

Gemini Saturn: "Uh...what's the word for that again? "

Virgo Saturn: "Oh I just can't wait to get home and wash my hands!"

Sag Saturn: "I'll have to pray about this. It's in God's hands."

Care to add to the list? [/B]

I love this list! Good stuff here.

*I* am Saturn-Sag and "It's in God's hands" is definitely something that would come out of my mouth.

It can be restrictive.

I think it's more about what happens when you impose more order on a sign than you'd ordinarily see in it. The sign's energy "warps" into a Saturnine version of itself. So, Taurus loves food and luxury, but Saturn Taurus loves having food and luxuries organized, standardized, repetitive. Leo loves attention, but Saturn Leo only wants attention that comes from a well-structured ego and the work that gives rise to. Gemini can talk up a storm but Saturn Gemini might struggle with language, because languages can be haphazard, and Saturn struggles with any kind of chaos.

I don't really know for sure, but Cancer does seem to be about finding security, like locating a seashell to hide their squishy bodies inside of.
