Saturn in the signs - Cancer

Fearful emotions
This planetary position means that there is a need to distinguish between real feelings of love and longing and those that are just driven by desire and purpose. Saturn in Cancer looks for a ready-made nest to settle down which means that this Saturn holds on to outdated habits and emotional patterns that he interprets as real affection even though to outsiders, these emotions have simply become mechanical routines.  This is a consequence of not wanting to be alone – under no circumstances. However, what this Saturn needs to realise is that without knowing himself and allowing periods of loneliness to pass, the more likely it is to be emotionally disappointed.

Saturn limits whatever he touches, so Saturn in Cancer may feel guilty about his past, emotions or experienced some emotional restrictions through the mother. (Cancer is ruled by the Moon and the Moon in the chart is the mother although some astrologers say it means the parent of the same gender, so it could be the father for a man).

From an early sense of insecurity comes the feeling that emotional security is everything for this Saturn. The person with this placement may have a very disciplined approach to achieving these goals. Saturn in Cancer can also be quite protective of the homeland and more patriotic than others. 

Physical signs of emotions and the sense of security being out of place are digestive issues.

Ultimately, Saturn in Cancer needs to learn to trust that another person can love them for who they are instead of insisting on a certain idea of what love needs to look like. A kind of learning process in being emotionally more open is required here...
