Question

..a cancerian with a moon in Scorpio and a Scorpio rising?

Answer 1

hey you are almost the same as me lol

very intense personality for starters !!! and i bet your instinct with people is spot on....... always make sure you trust it, it will never let you down!!!

With the Moon in the fixed water sign of Scorpio, your emotional reactions are deep and intense. You are very sensitive to the emotions and "vibes" given off by others, but your fear of emotional pain ensures that you will keep your own feelings hidden safely beneath the surface, unless you feel that it is safe to let them out. You have a natural strength and perseverance, based on your instinctive awareness that life is a struggle for survival.

Early childhood experiences may have given you a deep distrust in life and an awareness of the inevitability of change, transformation and death. Negative emotions such as jealousy and possessiveness will not be openly expressed but may simmer half unconsciously below the surface until you are caught off guard or hurt in some way, then the power and intensity of such feelings will surprise both yourself and the person to whom they are directed.

With the fixed water sign of Scorpio rising at the time of your birth, you have an intense approach to life, with a desire to get to the root of any issue so that you can understand it from the bottom up. While you are sensitive to the emotional atmosphere around you, you will tend to keep your own emotions behind a barrier to protect them, until the pressure becomes too great and the repressed energy is released in a burst of anger, or by some action that expresses unmistakably how you feel. There may be periods in your life when you will willingly, or by force of circumstances, remove all the old structures in your life to make way for the growth of something new. Like a snake that sheds its skin, the death of the old life makes way for the development of something more fulfilling, although these periods will not be without accompanying pain.

Scorpio is ruled by Pluto. As the ruler of your Ascendant this planet is of particular importance in your chart.

Answer 2

Oddly enough, this indicates someone with psychic abilities, intuitive capabilities, strong artistic inclinations, and probably a developed, "mature" (in the sense of life-times, i.e., this isnt the first time this person is dealing with these energies, this has been developed and evolved up to this point)....and natural sense of compassion, "understanding", and skills at communication and cutting thru the mud of humn relationships. All the emotional firey type energy (moon, mars, sun, rising sign, water, fire) must be sen from mapping onto the basic configuration the areas of transmutation of energies. this person will NOT be focused on himself or herself in this lifetie, but will, most likely, be self-expressed ONLY in terms of others and other relaionships, which will be many, varied, passionat and probably not long lasting until many years from now.

Answer 3

...because they are afraid of emotions?

With that configuration, this chart would produce a pretty intense and emotional person. And many people seem to fear emotions. We have over-stressed thinking and rationality in our culture.

I will add though, that if the person with this chart has not got it together, there will be issues to be dealt with. Passion and emotions are wonderful things when focused and felt, but if they are allowed to range all over the place, it could be crazy-making.

Scorpio can be vengeful, and Cancer never ever forgets a hurt... so this person may need to be careful not to shut everyone out to protect themself.

Answer 4
