The Sun in Cancer makes him shy and withdrawn. He is a fundamentally conservative and a home-loving person. He has a time to socialize and a time to be solitary. Outwardly he appears formidable, thick-skinned, unemotional, uncompromising, obstinately tenacious, purposeful, energetic, shrewd, intuitive and wise, sometimes with a philosophical profundity of thought verging on inspiration. However, he is sympathetic and kindly sensitivity within. He is able to identify with the situations of others. He can sometimes be over-imaginative and prone to fantasy. He is appreciative of art and literature, and especially of drama. He is fascinated by the occult and open to psychic influence. He is mentally a mixture of toughness and softness, often emotional and romantic to the point of sentimentality. He loves unreservedly, giving much and asking little in return. He is a loyal friend, has a retentive memory, particularly for emotionally laden events.
