Mars in Cancer
How Mars works when it lands in Cancer: the reading, the ingredients behind it, and where to find it in your own chart.
The reading
The drive runs sideways here: action waits on mood and strikes obliquely, and the fiercest fights are for home and kin. Defense is the genius, patient and formidable; anger swallowed goes looking for indirect exits, and it always finds one.
