Sun in Cancer
Sun in Cancer means the Sun was in Cancer when you were born, which happens every year from about June 21 to July 22. It is what most people call their sign.
Cancer is a cardinal water sign. The Sun is what most people call their sign. In a chart it is the centre you grow towards: what gives you life, and who you are slowly becoming.
Who you are becoming
The shell and the tide
There is a memory in you that does not fade easily: a kitchen, a voice calling your name, the smell of a particular winter. You may build your sense of self around the people and places you protect. Often you feel a room before you enter it. Perhaps the person you are becoming is someone who can offer shelter without disappearing into it, who learns to be held as tenderly as you hold others.
