Sun

in Cancer/Moon in Capricorn:

Low Self‐Esteem

Your insight into people is extraordinarily good because of your experience. This gives
you prohibitions and conflicts even though it provides special perceptions for you. You
do not feel fearful of a future that is not certain like most Cancers. Your goals are very
high as the result of your ambitions and desire for recognition. Your Capricorn aspect
is goal oriented, distant and rugged while the Cancer part is benevolent, unsure and
emotional. This obviously puts the signs in some opposition. You have inner disputes
trying to solve issues and you need to build yourself up because of this. Inner firmness
of purpose and determination have helped you over the early obstructions that in all
likelihood you experienced in your childhood environment. This made you a self-
examining and calculating person, especially for a Cancer individual. You are a quite
serious person and learn things easily. Your strong Capricorn inner nature finds
opposition from the gentler Cancer. You are in need of proving yourself for inner
satisfaction as well as recognition from the world at large. You have a somewhat
unique approach to life and you are never happy with external impressions. You
approach it with a view towards change and novelty no matter what you do. Galileo
the astronomer and the writer Ernest Hemingway were both members of your
combination, and their work shows the totally different nature of the Cancer-Capricorn
perspective. Seclusion is something that you desire, but while that may be good in
limited amounts, too much can bring about alienation from the world around you and
feelings of not being good enough. Depression, disappointment and withdrawal can
come about with your continual dissatisfaction to achieve this. Even turning to drugs
or alcohol are possible in severe cases. Try to recognize you have gifts and learn to
appreciate yourself, while accepting you limitations. You have strengths that need to
be acknowledged and it is OK to be sensitive in life sometimes. You need to work on
accepting yourself and loving yourself. You can accomplish anything after you have
learned to make peace with your inner nature. Capricorn's realism, organization, and
aspirations combined with Cancer's vision and intuition can give you an excellent
business sense.
