Life Path Number 8, Moon Sign in Cancer

Life Path Number 8

The Life Path 8 is all about personal empowerment. The 8 is a testament of strength and is able to overcome hurdles in their life. They love to involve their willpower and test their physical strength in order to achieve. One thing the Life Path Eight will need to do is learn balance in their life. They can not get everything they want be sheer will, and they will need to learn how to be patient in order to get the proper results. The 8 needs to learn love, and have less fear that their material needs will not be met. The 8 is a sponge when it comes to absorbing new information about the world, and they are at their best when they are sharing this information freely with others which allows others to navigate the world in a similar way to them. The 8 works best when they approach the world in an authoritative way, but not in a way that just blatantly dominates people. They need to have a healthy approach to fear. They may believe they have no fear, but this is a lack of self awareness. When they realize they have fear, but choose to act anyway, the 8 becomes a very unstoppable force. The 8 will make many friends along the way, and will hopefully develop enough tact to be the strong and reliable one that others lean on.

Cancer ♋︎ Moon in the Natal Chart

A Cancer Moon sign in the natal chart is a highly spiritual energy that desires peace and calm. Your Moon sign allows for the full expression of emotion. You are naturally very encouraging of other people’s hopes and dreams. There is a tendency to take care of and “parent” the people around you. You are typically the one to make sure everyone is well fed, safe, and happy. 

Element: Cancer is operating thorough the element of water. This gives you a predisposition to respond with feelings before thinking things through. You will have a tendency to have overt emotional displays and some impulsive behavior. 

Mood: As a Cancer Moon person you will have plenty of mood swings. You are deeply sensitive to the world around you and constantly sense the emotions of others. There is a tendency to obsess or fixate on the interactions you have with others regardless of the context of the situation. Many people appreciate your raw honest emotional expression. 

Nurturing Your Moon Sign: Nurturing a Cancer Moon takes time. You need to retreat from the world frequently to recharge your empathic batteries. Getting lost in escapist activities such as watching films, substance use, or shopping are ways in which you self soothe your deep well of emotional stimulation.
