Black Moon in Cancer
Live here and now

For those who are familiar with the basics of astrology, it’s clear that the position of Black Moon in Cancer has to do with emotions, family ties and, last but not least, the mother!
If you have this Black Moon position in your birth chart you will – under all circumstances – feel strongly connected to your family. There may be heavy family obligations where you suffer from. While it is you who needs “maternal protection”.
With this Black Moon position, there is almost always a certain disharmony on the affective level. You were either overprotected when you grew up, or you felt that you were abandoned. Perhaps you’ve found it difficult to leave your childhood behind and even refused to become mature.
Probably you couldn’t cope with the pressure of adulthood and you grew up in a disharmonical way. It can be difficult for you to accept the responsibilities that adult people have and your environment often sees you as a child-woman.
Black Moon in Cancer always indicates problems with the origin. Do you feel ashamed of your background or origin (environment, culture or race) and did that hinder you in your growth towards adulthood? Do you have mixed feelings towards your parents? Are you still not able to liberate yourself from oppressive family ties?
For people with Black Moon in Cancer, your challenge is to learn to cut the navel cord with your mother and leave the past for what it is. Live here and now, is the message.
Respect your family and family relationships, but don’t let them chain you. Do not clinch yourself to others and don’t allow others to suffocate you.
People with their Black Moon in Cancer who really accept the challenges of life are often the right persons to create a home for children who aren’t theirs. The ideal adoption parents, for example.
Sexuality remains, more than in any other Black Moon position, also influenced by childhood events. Your imagination plays a significant role because it can affect your sensuality in a special way. Is the position of Black Moon in Cancer heavily ill aspected in your birth chart, then the possibility of family incest during childhood can’t be neglected.
With Black Moon in Cancer emotional safety and security will always remain an absolute requirement for all sexual matters. But with an appropriate partner your strong imagination and your innate sensuality will bring you to unprecedented erotic heights.
Important: live from day to day, think positive, avoid quarrels.
