No, it doesn't. People are individuals, and I think I recall a disloyal Cancer Moon...

I love that what you say to "defend" cancer moons is exactly the trap I think they're guilty of Poor cancerians, victims of their tidal waves of emotions.... please, we all have emotions, somehow something about cancer always makes it seem like theirs are more precious, more intense than others and I dislike that, it's like emotional elitism and the fact they build unconditional love for themselves from others based on that makes them people I want to keep away.
The best way to deal with them for me is distance. I would trust a cancer moon therapist, psychic.... any day, I do think they can get tuned brilliantly, but in my private life or in an "equal" relationship at work, I do not want it anymore. Without the serious check of them having the power over of me and the ensuing responsibility as in a therapeutic relationship, I only trust cancer to do what it does: creep in and suck the emotion out. I honestly think it's no hazard if the disease and the sign share the same symbol, something about that emotional fluidity seems to want to conquer and invade others' emotions, it's highly unpleasant.
I like cancers, they're natural friends, but the work they require to protect myself from them makes for relationships where I never let my guard down, so I'd rather keep it professional.

There is no love lost for Cancer Moons for this Cap Moon

Could the problem also be that both Cancer &
Cap are cardinal? The up/down motion of Cancer leaves Cap feeling out of whack and destabilized?

I know that Aries Moon tend to make me edgy because of their tendency to be boisterous and have "ants in pants" syndrome. But Gemini is similar.

However Gemini doesn't annoy me like Aries. Its like Aries' constant "crisis" modus operandi gets my nerves shot when I am already on shaky ground.

With Cancer one must note that it is dynamic water. So it responds instinctively to the ebb and flow of nuances-which can make it seem like a "lunatic".

Cap likes structure and order.It is comfortable with form and consistency. Cancer is not any of these things most times.

So either sign can reject the other because at the crux of the frustration is the question "Why are you not conforming to what makes me feel comfortable?".

I will extend this to all people actually who don't get on with other signs but "love" some etc. Those "some" tend to easily conform whilst "others" confront us with the inescapable truth that we can't "control" people or force them to behave a certain way.

It's like saying Leo is the worst place for Sun.

Hey! Dont put us all by the sword just because some of us belive you dont care about things, just because it doesnt show of you there and then.

To my cancer brothers and sisters defence, the ones who havent evolved enough just yet, you Cap moons can seem to not give a #### about things that actually hurts you.
And then think thats its always ok to run you over.
(Omg! What hapened to her? )

I belive i can understand and relate to cap moons emotional outbursts faaaaar more better than the example i gave before. When one can relate - its far easier to handle and to live with.

Hehe, I am quite dramatic in my expression (leo venus!)

Ha, I think you're touching something very interesting here. I usually always see oppositions as miraculous and borderline don't get why they're considered a hard aspect because my Virgo sun loves Pisces and has learnt so much from them, but then again, I'm a mutable, and it's my sun, now you mention it I can absolutely see why the moon, being more private, more sensitive, would not feel this compromising and why, out of the mutable axis would be quick to reject its opposite.

To be fair my problem with Cancer is global and biased as it touches a history of abuse, undergone and witnessed since childhood at the hands of various Cancer suns, moons and risings, but I also grew up from those and could also take "white women" or even me as a common point between these gaping a-holes lol Hence the "some", it's not so much about some people's behaviour as it is about fairness and giving every individual the right to not "be" a mere pattern.

I think you hit the nail on the head with this "conforming" idea, though I don't entirely relate, because I don't feel Cancer hurts me by not conforming to me but by imposing me to conform too much, and here I'd say that it's experience that has made me say "now, I won't conform, not for this, not anymore", because I feel that my strong mutable sun has made me force my moon into compromises in the name of fair that it has then regretted.

I think others are key in this dynamic between Cap and Cancer. Capricorn is not happy, it's old, it's ruled by gloomy Saturn, it's rigid, has the emotional range of a stale scone, is a loner, cares only about money.... while Cancer is the freaking mother, ruled by the ever so important moon, it's loyal and sweet and caring and so emotional, it can nurture and feel others...
In reality every human being is prone to the same empathy or lack thereof; the planets will mostly direct how it expresses itself but in no way a person may not have emotions. So I guess my annoyance with that whole Cancer thing is that in any personal argument between these 2 energies the common tendency is to favour the watery one. Head is for business only, heart for love... well heads can be clouded by feelings and hearts can reason! lol It's not so much that my Cappy moon is hurt by Cancer, it's more so that Cancer gets others to hurt it by making herself a victim every time she's not satisfied, just like a child throwing a tantrum. Gran-pa goat dislikes tantrums on their own enough without needing for the masses to side with the brat I wouldn't mind the "lunatic" aspect, it's the emotional elitism (largely entertained by lots of people around) that makes it toxic to me. Out of that, as I've said, had lots of Cancer friends, and Cancer moons too, they just require me to protect my moon because when their emotions show, there's no room for anything else.
I think what irritates Capricorn with Cancer is its absence of emotional modesty. Capricorn loves sobriety, cancer is shamelessly needy which can feel distasteful. But again, to each their own, I blame them for becoming toxic if not satisfied is all

I'm pretty sure my childhood BFF has a Gemini moon and it's funny because we've known each other for decades and it never created any issue. I would say that the relationship just doesn't touch my emotions in terms of, it doesn't call upon my depth so it doesn't get a chance to get hurt, she's a Leo so I imagine she deals with my Venus and rising and both of us having mars in Scorpio we find enough "food" for our friendship there without going up to the moon ?

I think a lot of moons can be like that, though yes, Pisces moon, I see it, especially with Aries, something with aries and water signs, it's not always pretty, join the club of the funny "worders"!

I get on with Cap moon usually so maybe that's why I liked your post . Especially in combination with Virgo although or maybe because I'm a Pisces sun Cancer moon. I like Earth signs and we get each other usually. Are you a Virgo sun?

@Aries Eagle Thanks So do I, but free speech doesn't mean it's ok to offend or you should feel nothing if it seems you unwillingly have, I believe my smiles and reminders to people of my benevolent intentions are free, so I give them

@ScandinavianCrab Hehe I see my teasing about Cancer's empathic abilities got a long way

As for us, We DO give lots of fuuuuucks, we are just highly selective about who/what we give them to lol
Seriously, I think we're mostly rational about the concept of empathy and it shocks both society and Cancers. True empathy is a bit of a dream, you project your own emotions, recognise emotions you've felt in others, understand, decipher... but you don't really feel what others feel. You feel what/how they make you feel, at best their emotions resonate with you, but they're always yours, you feel what you feel.
It doesn't make us cruel, it just means that we won't wear black for 3 months because the neighbour lost her husband in a car crash. We'll help her with the paperwork and offer an attitude that doesn't remind her she's grieving because we think she doesn't need to be reminded that her flesh is waning beneath her skin allowing parts of her soul to slowly leave the desolate vessel that her body has become from all the sadness.

Most people NEVER know how I feel, it's terrible, I say it, with words!!!! lol and yet it seems that what comes off is always my sunny leo rising conjunct venus, so I shock when I get mad or sad, it always seems disproportionate, so I give up ^^
