Okay, so today I decided to dive into this whole astrology thing – “cancer sun scorpio moon libra rising,” specifically. I’ve always been a bit skeptical, but honestly, I was bored and it popped up on my feed, so I thought, “Why not?”
First, I had to figure out what all of that even meant. I mean, I knew my sun sign was Cancer – basic, right? But moon sign? Rising sign? Total noob territory. So, I used an online calculator, punch in my birth date, time, and location and started.
My Astrological Deep Dive
Finding My Signs
- I grabbed my phone and search a birth chart calculator .
- I entered my birth details : The date, exact time (thanks, Mom!), and the city I was born in.
- Then I hit ‘Calculate’ and boom – there it was. My chart.
Apparently, I’m a Cancer Sun, Scorpio Moon, and Libra Rising. Whatever that means.
Decoding the Jargon
Next, I started researching each part of the chart separately:

- Cancer Sun: I’d already known. Homebody, sensitive, blah blah blah. Some of it resonated, some of it…not so much.
- Scorpio Moon: This one was a bit more intense. Secretive, emotional, passionate. It talked about hidden depths and a need for control. Okay, maybe a little bit relatable.I felt very very deeply and love to explore my own.
- Libra Rising: This is apparently how I come across to others. Charming, diplomatic, indecisive (guilty!). It’s all about balance and harmony. It’s like my outer shell, the mask I wear in public.
Putting It All Together
This is where it got interesting. Trying to merge all these different aspects into one cohesive picture was tricky. I spent a good hour just reading different interpretations, trying to see how a sensitive Cancer could also have this intense Scorpio undercurrent and a charming Libra exterior.
I scribbled down some notes, trying to connect the dots. Some things I wrote:
- “Cancer Sun: Craves security, loves family, nurturing.”
- “Scorpio Moon: Intense emotions, private, seeks deep connections.”
- “Libra Rising: Appears friendly, avoids conflict, values relationships.”
Reflecting and Realizing
I have to admit, some of it hit a little close to home. The whole “appearing calm and collected on the outside while secretly being an emotional mess” thing? Yeah, I can relate. I realized how I often prioritize other people’s feelings over my own (that Libra balance, maybe?), and how I tend to bottle things up (hello, Scorpio).I also recognized the Cancerian need for a safe, comfortable space and how much I value close relationships.I compared my characteristics with my own, then I found it was really interesting and amazing.
So, did this little experiment turn me into a full-blown astrology believer? Not really. But it did give me some food for thought. It was a fun way to spend an afternoon, and I even learned a few things about myself (or at least, about how I might be perceived). It’s not going to dictate my life choices, but it’s definitely given me a new perspective. And hey, who knows, maybe I’ll start blaming my indecisiveness on my Libra Rising from now on.
