Saturn in the cardinal, water sign of Cancer is in its detriment, because Cancer is the opposite sign to Capricorn, which is ruled by Saturn. Your early family life may have lacked tenderness or been somehow troublesome; perhaps this has left you scarred. Inhibited in your show of love and emotions, you may feel isolated and shy. In spite of this, you are clannish and feel responsible towards your family. In order to perceive an aura of dignity, you hide your inner thoughts and feelings. Although you may cry a lot, you cry in private; all people see is your melancholy. Your need approval and love sometimes force you to build a shell around yourself. Your feelings are easily hurt, yet you lack understanding of others; as much as you would like to help others, you often fail. This position of Saturn indicates difficulties in stability and security in the home life. You are security-conscious. To achieve material goals, you can be very shrewd and able. You are subject to nervous strain and should guard against gaining weight because of water retention. Challenging aspects can produce hypersensitivity, withdrawal from close involvements and a defensive attitude.
