Maybe I want middle aged things now. I’ve had my fuck, but I’ve lost my love. My womb wont tear me to pieces now, maybe, but my heart certainly will.

♇ cancer in the first house, conveys about how an individual is first perceived by those who are around them, or by those they meet by the first time. those with cancer in the first angular house will have people think of them to be kept to themselves, private, comforting and protective of themselves and their surroundings. on the other hand, there can be people who'll have negative first perspectives of people who have cancer in the first house and view them to be individuals who are sarcastic and easily offended.
♇ touching the topic of self-identity, it is mostly believed that people with cancer in the first house self-identify themselves as people who are "nurturers" or even "protectors" protecting themselves, guarding the people around them along with their possessions, it could be viewed that whatever cancer is in someone's chart is where someone is most protective of, for example, an individual with cancer in the first house are protective over their life path, what they want to achieve in life, their identity and creations. let's look at angelina jolie, aside from her movies, we known for sure that she is protective over the name she makes of herself and that being a woman who cares about children and those in-need.
♇ along with the impression natives with cancer in the first house make to the audience, when opening up, these people give other people the idea that they are vulnerable and emotional behind that hard crab cloak and are individuals who are affectionate, devoted and sympathetic. it can be debated that people with cancer in the first house are viewed as "fake" because of the hard crab skin that hides their true identity under, other people could have the concept that the particular with cancer in the ascendant are like onions, every time you peel there's a layer.
♇ moving from the topic of how other natives perceive them and singularly to the topic of personality, the ascendant is one of the many things in astrology that conveys the persona stance of someone. it can be debated that cancerian people are comical, howbeit, their persona includes them being of hard-working, generous, nostalgic and sentimental. having the traits that are viewed as smothering, controlling or manipulative, this mostly comes down to the specific individual in if they want to become the best version of themselves, along with afflicted aspects with the ascendant.
♇ the planetary ruler of cancer is known to be the moon, the moon isnt really considered as a planet but in astrology it is viewed as a celestial planet. [along with the sun], with the moon being the ruling planet, this entails that there could be somewhat of a womanish grace every cancer rising has, it doesnt necessarily need to be something feminine but as something that could be viewed as sustenance and providing. that'll always have a handful of people looking up to the cancerian natives. the moon has always been worshipped so people with cancer in the first house might find themselves being adored a lot or might find themselves worshipping something or someone, could be themselves, their partners, a God, a celebrity etc.
♇ coming to what the first house is usually known about, the appearance, i have gathered that a lot of cancer ascendant natives have big eyes, or sometimes their features could be too big for their face, they're sometimes clowned about having a gerbil/baby face. aside from the young features, many cancer risings normally have pointy/long chins, or their chin just has a lot of meat/fat in it [or just a lot of meat in their face] their heads shape is either circular or very structured but still circular, might even have a double chin.
♇ the ascendant in astrology rules over one's personal ambition, it could be beheld that cancer risings personal ambitions would include them being comfortable in their own skin and comfortable in their atmosphere. for example cher, she is expressive about how she is comfortable being without a man, whether she has one or not, and sees men as a "luxury" but not as a necessity, it could be deemed that cancer risings personal ambitions is to live a life where not having something in specific wont internally hurt them and make them insecure.
♇ strengths and weaknesses being a vital point of the ascendant, cancer natives durability being their affectionate, creative, protective and tough self where their weak traits could be studied as them being people who are controlling, smothering, inconsistent and defensive.
♇ the first house in astrology is also centred around how a specific person projects their personality into life; and cancer placements, especially cancer risings are very specific about how they launch themselves, they're very aware, like they can be considered as people who play chess whilst others are playing checkers. they empathise with other people making other people feel like that cancer in the first house native understands them for who they are; they present themselves of being people who are nurturing and receptive, which causes other people to lean onto them or you could say depend on them a lot.
♇ people with cancer in the first house view the world as somewhat unfair, they're emotional and receptive people and are likely people who can easily point out when someone or something is being treated unfairly. besides unjustified treatment, cancer risings discern the world as a place to make memories in, dont be surprised whenever a cancer placement is holding a camera to capture an event, they're people who like to hold onto nostalgia so whenever they feel down, there is a happy moment they can look back onto that reminds me why they can keep pushing.
♇ self-imagery, an important matter of the first house, as the moon that naturally rules cancer is always in the sight of people's gaze, it wont be surprising if there would be cancer ascendants who are insecure with the way people might view them. as cancer is a celestial sign, they might've had to be in the front row of something, there it be a school, family, siblings etc, there was just always something in specific people watched the cancer rising for. which makes up to why they want to, well not necessarily manipulate, but alter the way people perceive them because if they do behave in a way that is considered as wrong, it'll never be unseen so they do feel stressed about self-image, majority of them, but as they grow they'll learn that they cannot always change everyone's perspective of them and comprehend to live with what they know about themselves.
♇ closing off this post with the impact they leave on others, i have forespoken about cancer risings making other people feel understood, it could be stereotypically commented that they make others feel that way because of the feminine or "matriarch" energy they own; the effect they leave on others is to aid other individuals to perceive various outlooks differently and with a more understanding perspective. in my opinion, i feel like their ability to help the way people see specific things in life is the reason why they tend to get worshipped a lot. or think of it as a way of the moon being the only light in the darkness, giving me another reason to why people adore them as such because there could be countless of people who think of them "as the way".
