Moon in Cancer.

A thing to remember here is that these posts are strictly meant for the particular planet position. Like, today we are looking at Moon in Cancer, so the description given here may change for you if your Moon is although in the sign of Cancer but with conjunction or aspected by other planets.

So, lets see what Moon can do in the sign of Cancer. 1st lets see what these 2 things represent -

Moon represents Mind, Emotions, Mother, Local Government, Peace of Mind, Home Environment, Water, Milk etc.

Cancer is 4th sign of Zodiac Belt, hence it represents the things represented by 4th house like Mother, Mother's care, Emotions and Nourishment etc. Cancer is consisted of 2 and half Nakshatras namely Punarvasu, Pushyami and Ashlesha. Cancer's lord is Moon.

So, when Moon is in Cancer, they can be highly emotional people. It is because Moon and Cancer both represent emotions. Also, Cancer is ruled by Moon only. So, Moon gets the best environment in Cancer. It is like Moon is at home. So, these people can be really emotional, caring and loving towards others. They can be in professions like teaching or medicine. They can be attached with their mother or home land. They want emotional security more than anything else. Their mother can also be similar kind of person. Biggest challenge for them can be balancing their emotions. They can be of imbalanced emotions in early life but it settles down in later life. 

Now, the question comes about the level of emotions person may exhibit? So, it again would depend on the Nakshatra Moon is sitting in. If Moon is in Punarvasu Nakshatra, then emotions will be directed by the condition of Jupiter in horoscope as Punarvasu's lord is Jupiter. If Moon is in Pushyami Nakshatra, then emotions will be directed by the condition of Saturn in horoscope as Pushyami's lord is Saturn. Again, If Moon is in Ashlesha Nakshatra, then emotions will be directed by the condition of Mercury in horoscope as Ashlesha's lord is Mercury.

As Moon is the lord of Cancer itself. It will protect its own sign and house.
