Armor and horns
Your Cancer Sun is tender, watchful and slow to expose itself. Your Aries Moon reacts right away, without checking who’s looking. So you’re more willing to take a risk than most Cancer Suns, and more likely to say the thing before you’ve thought about it. Now and then that lands you in trouble. Your temper shows up more often than people expect, then it’s gone about as fast as it came.
A steady back-and-forth runs inside you, between caution and nerve. It often comes out as fierce protectiveness. Threaten someone you care about and they’ll see what the Moon can do.
Love with some heat in it
You’ve got an awful lot of love to give, and you want it noticed. Your need for closeness can come across as a demand, since your Moon won’t wait around to ask politely. Jealousy tends to hit hard: you sense a threat, you feel the old fear of being left, and the ram’s already through the door before the crab has had a chance to check the facts.
Partners may be startled by how quickly you go from hurt to angry to making them a sandwich. They might still be on step one when you’ve reached step three.
Between hurt and anger
Your anger is very often hurt moving at speed. If you can catch it for a moment and say “that hurt my feelings,” you’ll get a much better answer than you get from shouting. Physical activity helps your Moon burn off some charge. Give your partner time to catch up after a flare, and don’t take it as sulking if they need more than you do. Also, jealousy is a reason to talk, and it’s never a reason to check on or control anyone.
