Lungs are ruled by Gemini. Obsession is more Scorpio than Cancer.<br /><br />I'm Cancerian and I certainly haven't suffered to the extent of the description you gave. I know plenty of healthy Cancerian men and women who are creative, nurturing, funny, and a joy to be around. Then again, I don't judge a person by their Sun Sign or other planetary placements in their charts. As an astrologer, making generalizations is dangerous, however I admit there are tendencies with each of the Zodiac Signs and energies.<br /><br />I hope you meet some healthy people with water signs so that you can see the beauty of these folks.Esoteric Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219823043729793035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1042024586202676171.post-13600406688129302212013-06-26T14:11:04.058-07:002013-06-26T14:11:04.058-07:00My mother was a cancer and your description of the...My mother was a cancer and your description of their motherly angst (German for "metaphysical fear" in my book), their constant deep deep worrying, their over mothering, was so right on I could have used it as a character description quote. My sister was a Gemini and my mother, very liberal about amorous matters, put one of the first IUD's, the Dalcon Shield, into my sister when my sister was 14. As with thousands of other women, problems developed internally, and since I was leaving the family hearth and moving north (my mother had been obsessed with me my whole childhood), my mother just shifted her attention and obsession to my sister and her diseases (and operations, emergency room visits, eventual opiate dependence, etc. <br /><br />To go forward 17 years, my sister never improved despite between ten to twenty major surgeries, and I tried to explain the powers of metaphysics to cure. But the commitment to obsession was total. In 1985, my mother came down with adino carcinoma of the lung, a lung cancer not associated with smoking, that appeared right where my mother felt all her pain. When she finally passed in Feb 1988, my sister died basically simultaneously with my mother in her apartment (my mother was in the hospital) - same day, year, city, and if they actually went together it is possible.<br /><br />Meanwhile, all our family friends had run away, my father went into a shell, I became an aggressive pusher of metaphysics, and to make a long story short, cancer women can suffer so incredibly much that I would not time any birth, if possible, to occur in Cancer. The men I do not know. I am Aries with three planets in Aries in my natal chart. It is wise not to make me mad LOL. I loved your article.
