Sun in Cancer, Moon in Sagittarius

You bring together qualities that seem hard to reconcile: a love of constancy and a craving for the new, sensitivity and restlessness, thrift and open-handedness. Hearth and home and the lives of the people close to you matter a great deal, and family values and needs shape your goals. Self-confidence does not always come easily, and you try to protect yourself from the pain the world around you can cause. You are sensitive, generous and kind. You are glad to help anyone who comes to you, to feed them and to sympathize, and when needed you will give away the last thing you have. Even so, you are no spendthrift: you are very careful and thrifty, you like to keep reserves and you save part of what you earn.

You make decisions with caution, thinking about the interests of your loved ones and about money, because material stability is your guarantee of security and peace of mind. At the same time, you carry your decisions out honestly, openly and on a grand scale. To reach your goals, you rely on your strong intuition and your boundless optimism. You love children and know how to find a common language with them.

You are interested in your roots and your ancestors, and your longing for the past helps you understand the world better. You like to study different philosophies, to travel and to get to know foreign cultures and new knowledge. Deep inside you feel a wish to find a higher meaning and pass it on to others.

You like to rest in a calm, cozy place, surrounded by the people dear to your heart, ideally near the water. Water calms you, and it gives you the greatest pleasure.

You relax where you can show your generosity and help others, and also where the horizons seem endless, where there is something to think about and something to learn that widens your view. Although you are tied to home and find it hard to leave, you still often break free and set off on long trips.

You express your emotions vividly and impulsively, with exaggeration and flair. You care about how you are seen and enjoy being admired, and you love to teach and to instruct, so letting others teach you in turn keeps you open.

Your conscious aims and your inner needs do not always match, and giving each its turn helps.

In a man's chart, this combination turns him toward home, family, caring and thrift, and it often draws him to a partner who is optimistic, kind, sporty and generous. In a woman's chart, it gives a great love of travel, philosophy and learning, and she tends to look for a partner who is gentle, romantic, emotional and fond of home.
