I'm new here. Hi everyone. Does anyone know anything about a person who is born on the cusp of Cancer & Leo. I've met a man I'm very intrigued by and he was born on July 21st. I'm trying to get a little insight, through astrology, into what makes him tick. Looking forward to any response from someone who may know something about people or a person born under these two signs. Thanks

Welcome acecrave!
YIKES!
I have to tell you...my mother was born on this day and if the way she acts is any indication of what's to come with him...prepare yourself for a wild ride!
Now her being female might make a difference, but these two signs are a union of extremes...You have the sun and the moon. Could it be more opposite? Expect pride and low self-esteem in the same person. Expect him to do things for you but watch out for the reasons WHY he may have done it. Expect crazy mood swings but also FIERCE loyalty and love. Oh yeah...these people are SUPER know it alls...Cancers and Leo's are both people who like to be right so if in a trivial argument with this person...sometimes it's better to say whatever, you are right. Very high-strung but loveable at the same time!

Cancerlady you are soooo right! I have a friend on that cusp too and you simply described him exactly!
Man he's super hot! sorry I know that's irrelevant 
I am a 31 year old female born on July 21st. I dont know what men are like and reading the other posts im not too happy with the stereotype that is being spread about this cusp. Maybe its where im deeply into self growth but i dont see being moody all the time and emotionally messed up. a man is going to be different than a female, probably likes the attention getting aspect of the leo, and has a sweet and caring side which comes from cancer. You are definetely either sign, getting someone who is very promising in the bedroom. Just my two cents worth!
I am a 45 year old female born July 23rd (the cusp in anyone's astrological "book"). I am single/never married. I have often noticed by the responses I seem to elicit from other people that they definitely don't understand me. But, the reality is that I am exactly what I appear to be. I'm very domestic (cooking, sewing, love children, etc.--Cancer traits), and I have always excelled in Math (was tops in my classes when I earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering--Leo traits). A strong association with food is typical of those born on the Cancer/Leo cusp...I am an amateur gourmet with a very keen sense of taste (been known to send a message to a chef in a restaurant telling him/her what herb/spice a dish needs more/less of), and I am now considering becoming a kitchen designer (a way to incorporate my strong organizational skills with food). Unlike true Leos, I don't have a need to be in the spotlight or be the leader, but I do want to be respected and appreciated for my intelligence and for my contributions to team projects. I DO have an unbelievable memory (remember some conversations word for word from years ago). That memory is another reason that I have such diverse talents because it gives me the ability to learn just about anything. From what I read, Cancer/Leos can be moody OR they can have the Sun/Moon traits well-integrated and be very even-tempered. I am the latter...a happy, peace-loving, fair-minded, genuinely warm-hearted individual who is extremely loyal to friends and family (and would also be to a mate). I am not as gregarious as a typical Leo (but I do laugh a lot and communicate well like a Leo), and I am extremely sensitive to criticism (like a Cancer). I am generally opinionated, but I ALWAYS try to compromise (better to be happy than to be right). I RARELY lose my temper...it takes A LOT to push me to that point. Love, romance, passion, affection, and sex are VERY important to my potential relationship (Leo traits), and I CANNOT be with anyone who isn't at the top of his game in those areas. Honesty, integrity, and strength of character are other traits I possess, and I REQUIRE those in a potential mate, as well. The good news...I recently met someone through eHarmony, have been communicating for a while, and just found out that he is a Gemini (could have figured that out even if I hadn't learned his birthday). Although I have never given astrology much thought, there are too many things that are dead-on to ignore. So, I'm believing that a Leo Woman and Gemini Man can be a great combination intellectually and have fireworks in the bedroom...woo hoo!) I'm trying not to be possessive and to give him his freedom, and he seems to be VERY considerate of my feelings. He sure is a lucky guy to have found me (Leo pride :-)

I work with a Cancer-Leo. UGH! She so happy, so gets on my nerves a lot. When I'm in a happy happy mood, I can stand her, other than that, she's annoying to me. (I'm Gemini-Cancer)
I am a July 21'er! I am learning more about the cusp and recently got into getting my chart read. The duality makes more sense than any of the things I had read previously about just Cancer.
As far as relationships, my biggest obstacle is getting people to truly understand what I mean. I sometimes feel like I must be speaking another language. Things that seem so clear to me, seem to be rocket science to others. I don't think I'm moody, I just think some days I need a break. Hopes this help in your relationship!

I just found out yesterday that my co worker "cancer/leo" might have been born on July 2nd instead of the 22nd. But.. I don't really don't understand that. I think she may actually have told ME the truth about the 22nd, but wants the 2nd off from work or something. She doesn't at all match the Cancer stereotype, she too DANG HAPPY all of the time. She's not really moody! She's just annoyingly happy.
Maybe her planets have her all out of the Cancer whack.. I don't know, but something ain't right. I may even ask to see her driver's license --- (The Gemini curiousity coming out..)

Hi, i'm a cancer/leo and i have alot of information in my profile that can might answer alot of your questions. it even has tips for raising children born under my signs. yeah i know im only 18 but i DO know what i lacked as a child and i'm always thinking about what could have been and what should have been!
for those of you who are wondering "what is a cancer/leo's match?" i got your answer right here! a capricorn/aquarius and an aquarius/pisces.
i study astrology most of the time.. like most cancers i stay home and this is my main hobby -studying astrology- i have actually thought about being an astrologist.
if you have any questions about this sign/cusp please please PLEASE ASK ME!! i'm so very eager to try my skills in astrology! you may e-mail with your questoins at LilAssLiz1617@aol.com
now.. for those of you who want to know how to win the heart of a cancer/leo.. here are some very good tips!
We seek security, sensitivity,pleasure,somebody who can accept us with out being critical, some body who LOVES to cuddle and can spend a whole night on the couch infront of the TV screen.
Buy us gifts like movies, beauty products (that only applies to some of us), bath products, blankets, pillows, and if we have pets or kids buy something thoughtful for them as well. if your going to buy us flowers buy something to go along with them because we like keepsakes and it's depressing to watch the flowers die. chocolates are nice but like i said we like keepsakes so buy us something to go along with the chocolates or we will probably end up keeping the box! remember that we love pleasurable and thoughtful gifts.
where to go for a date? dont be surprised if he/she wants to stay home and just cuddle, dont take her out to a dance club, some of us are not the type to go to such big social events like that. the movie theater or a play is a very good place to go. Going to the zoo is my ideal/dream date and im sure other cancer/leo's would love the zoo also. sight seeing is always fun, especially if it calls for bringing our cameras! now thers another thoughtful gift! a good camera! even picture albums and scrapbooks especially!
dont forget that we are shy and wont show our feelings until we feel that we can trust you. it may take a while for a cancer/leo to give you their heart completly so please be patient! if we keep turning you down or act unemotional torwards you at first its not because we're not interested, its simply because we are very cautious and want to make sure we find the right one. if we keep asking to see you or talk to you alot take this as a hint that we want to be with you! but if we keep coming up with excuses that we cant see you (most used excuse " "im sick" or "i have to stay home and take care of some things") then take that as a polite hint that we would rather just be friends. 
if you cant handle moodyness then you cant handle a cancer/leo bc we are like roller coasters, BUT on the upside of us we are very happy and energetic when we feel needed or know that we are showing you a good time and especially if we feel secure and truly loved by you! we are always up for having a good time!
if you can make alot of good memories with a cancer leo he/she won't soon forget you!

I know a cancer leo girl, and she's just a happy person with a bossy streak.
I don't like her, but give it a try 
HELLO I"m a July 21 baby!!!!!!! excuse all of that, I"m just excited to have found this place. I am most so leo and cancer, I laughed so hard at a comment someone made above about us cancer leo cusps being have alot of pride and low selfesteem at the same time, so true. I can see how I'm bossy and passive, very family orentated, I want at least 6 kids! oh and I"m in love with a sag! he was born dec. 1, I look up horoscopes alot and it says we wount make it,but then I started looking at leo and sag, and it's like yea we will. The only thing I cant stand about being on a cusp it's like people talk about it,...but daily horoscopes still only come in 12 signs.
well i am kind of dating a cancer-leo, and she is fabulous to say the least, becuase we both have financial difficulty our relationship went from passionate to an argument in a short period of time, she was so scared she decided to go out with her cousin on a girls night out to watch a movie, but called me afterward, when i knew i could not bring her the gift i bought her, i was kind of sad, but in the end 2 days later after playing phone tag with her, she said it was ok to come over, and i watched her opne her gifts, the rsult was amazing, we were passioante but styed away from sex, and just cuddled for the night, i think part of her wants a courtship and the other part of her wants adventure, but usually the guys that promise her adventure dont live up to it, and she is disappointed, like the last few nights, an old frind of hers obviously wanted to get with her, but he screwed up and she was mad at him, she got a headache and answered my call, after me doing overtime, but then as we talked she said she was extremely tired and i respected her need for sleep but she was happy i called and did answer the phone immediately, i know she has a really freaky side, with toys and porno, and i welcome it, but because of our past difficulties, i opted to take things slower and add adventure in other ways, but have yet to do those things with her, i know she wants sex wiht me again, but she keeps on stopping us, maybe to build the passion up to unbearable levels, i know i touch her heart in many ways, and she expressed in her body language that she let me back in her heart, like when we cuddled a couple nights ago, she moved closer to me instead of complaining or moving away, and she took my hand from over her hands on her chest and moved it beneath hers to touch her chest, that was wonderful, to me it was a step forward, and even though she wanted to kiss me one last time before i left, she knew i had to work the next day so we both agreed that it could lead to sex and stopped for another day, she then proceeded to air out her frustrations with her favorite toy and a video, i called and she was happy i called to let her know i was home safe, but i could hear the video in the background and she sounded kind of embarrased and giggled when we spoke, so today i called her and explained i was busy getting ready to move, after last nights distant and short conversation, and left a message that i wanted to know how she was doing today, and if she was busy or not, i told her i wanted to do some things with her out of the house maybe or at least make time to speak with her to see what she was interested in doing today, can you give me any pointers on how better to read her, and what she may expect depending on her mood, what to do if she says no, when she actually means yes, or other things to do that dont cost a whole lot, but enable her to spend money with me, and have fun too, you know bring excitement without always having sex, she wanted us to last, and i think she still does, i know she has me in her heart, and cant let go, but i want to make sure that we take the time to make it last and i want to keep her on her toes, would she appreciate a surprise visit? or should i always call? stuff like that, any advice is appreciated, i know there are other guys she flirts with or may have had flings with, but i dont let it bother me too much, and i am growing in confidence each time we meet, especially since we got past the arguments we had, i am attempting to show her some things, like that i can listen to her needs, i bought her gifts, i surprise her all the time, whether good or bad, we are good in bed together, i gave her money for the first time this week and she really appreciated it, becuase it was my last, all my gifts touch her heart, i like to stay home sometimes and go out other times too, but we have not gone out much, i get the feeling that every time she goes out with another guy she ends up disappointed with them, becuase they dont

HOLY SHIT CAKES CANCER LADY, THAT'S EXACTLY LIKE ME!
*This might be an old topic cause I was googling
* Message posted by: xXCancer_LeoXx on 2/7/2006 8:31:49 AM
^she hit the nail on the head....it describes me very well but....i am a male and personally...
i feel i need to spend money to feel good...im quite materialistic. i love sex.
im very proud and at times i feel emotional for no reason. at times i also feel like no one understands me. but in the end i am for the most part, very happy, energetic and constantly on the go . did i mention i love sex, and tons of it? i feel it is one thing that keeps me going. i also love porsches, and novelty items. i also have many hobbies and cant seem to stay focused on a lot, but maybe thats a different story.
personally, im very attracted to capricorns/aquarius/pisces. my first girlfriend when i was 18 was a capricorn...and i was in love with her mainly because of how she maintained herself physically, emotionally, and was a very strong individual. alas, it did not work out cause i eventually ended up ditching her all the time for my friends. she was also too conservative for me now that i look back. another girl that i dated was a capricorn/sagittarius. one thing that really enticed me was the fact that she was very sexual and always initiated the sex! one turn off about her was that she was very undecisive as she was "having issues" with her ex-boyfriend.
now i date a full blown pisces and im kind of bored to say the least. she is very sexual and that keeps me going. hah!i also dislike the fact that she doesnt like to try new things...certain foods...like sushi for example! 
i've also dated a virgo...and boy was she controlling, and needed to know where i was 100% of the time...blah!
i also think im am very extreme on both sides of the spectrum as far as personality is concerned. i can go out to clubs for days at a time, and i could also just stay home for many days at a time. i also just like to have my own privacy and do nothing and not be bothered too.
if you want to talk via email feel free to do so chris@night-life.info Bake him cookies and he'll be yours for life.
Hello... I'm a July 21st baby as well.
I often feel like I'm speaking another language to people. My one piece of advice would be to listen... listen to what your cancer/leo is REALLY saying... and if you still don't understand, ask questions. The biggest thing that drives people crazy about me is that they can't understand me, I've been told that I talk in riddles... but the best friends I've ever had (Virgo, Scorpio and Taurus) have truly taken the time to listen to the underlying point. They understand my need to express myself creatively and can hear past the words and literal translation of what I'm saying.
That's the best advice I can give here.
Secondly, we seem unhinged at times because we talk very dramatically. We are not about to fall off the deep end! We just talk emphatically.

xXCancer_LeoxX, just had to add you were right on point. I'm on the cusp July 22 and love to stay home, I almost dread to leave my house even to go to work and sometimes I am so moody I cant stand myself.
This thread cracks me up. You Cancer/Leos are weirdos.
Anyway, I hail from July 22 also *waves to cheering masses*.
I'm meant for the stage, I have a deep knowledge of all things love, and I feel like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Moody Jekyll and Charisma Hyde).
My Leo makes the wrong girls fall in love with me quickly, and my Cancer scares them away.
I, too, often feel like I'm speaking a different language.
If a girl bakes me cookies I will be hers for life.
I kinda resent astrology because it's spot-on (not particularly fond of admitting that I am A Big Contradiction). The contradictory pairing of Cancer with Leo means we come in a whole spectrum of flavors. Ie, allluv -- I feel ya. The dread of leaving home is a daily thing for me. But my Leo stamps it out and I go out and am a social butterfly. (Then there's Cancer/Leos like Chris...)
Cancer/Leos are dynamic. We bounce back and forth between personalities a lot. After doing this our whole loves, we become "skilled" at changing ourselves.
So, we are capable of great transformation. This is a curse for the Cancer/Leo who doesn't have a developed self-awareness. He/she will live an unstable, confusing life.
But being capable of transformation is a blessing for the Cancer/Leo who knows that the sky's the limit. 
Three years ago I was a wardrobe consultant. Last year I toured around with a rock band. Today I manage a modern furniture store, am Director of Distribution for a music magazine, and do lots of graphic design. 6 months ago I started playin poker pretty hardcore; I aspire to be a pro. Who knows what I'll be tomorrow, ya know? A chef? A ballroom dancer? It's a great feeling to know I can evolve at a moment's notice. I'm happy to be a Cancer/Leo.
But who believes in that astrology junk anyway... Interesting thread.
I, TOO, am a 32 yr old Cancer/Leo cusp. In fact, I am probably the epitome of the cusp...I was born on the night of 7/22...which puts me at Cancer but about 3 hrs away from a Leo. I feel so confused sometimes that I don't know whether I'm really Cancer or Leo.
Anyways, that's besides the point. Like the rest of you, I have a fondness of home. It's not that I don't like going out or socializing...but at the end of the day, I really enjoy being home. It just feels natural and feels comfortable.
I definitely don't like the idea of moving around too much. I like the comfort of knowing that my parents, family, friends are nearby. I'm extremely loyal (leo), quite fearless/courages when it comes to taking risks (very much leo, very NOT cancerish), highly creative, likes looking at the big picture and not get too caught up in detals...and I am quite the optimist. I believe living life means being happy and that should be the focus of our lives.
I think the one thing that us Cancer/Leo cusps need to be aware of is that we should not try to justify our actions or thoughts. Our Leo side gives us a strong sense of morales and ethics, but our Cancer side tries to justify what we do, whether right or wrong, for personal gains. It's important to be aware of what we're doing at all times and be honest with ourselves -- is what we're doing right?
Another obstacle we need to overcome is when our emotions get out of control. I have seen myself turn 1000% into a Cancer with the wild/crazy mood swings when put under certain stressful (relationship-related) situations. It took a lot of support and good advice from close friends to help me see what was happening to my life and how I changed into a moody, depressed Cancer when having to deal with the "drama". It's critical to rely on our Leo side to get us out of the storm.
If we can control your emotions, and not let our emotions control us, I think we can be invincible and accomplish almost anything in life. Our powerful Leo ambitions along with our creative Cancer sensitivity makes for an incredible combination. Just make sure you keep your ethics and morales close with you as you continue your quest to conquer the world...
I was born on July 27 and am really intersted in the cusps??anyone who can help me?
Which cusp do you want to know about raquel? I think the previous posts in this thread pretty much sums up Leo/Cancer cusps?
m so happy to meet cusps like me.. i came into this world on 21st july 11.35pm 
@cancerlady-- u took all of my words..

Is someone born on July 20th a Cuspian?
I am a true cusp born the 22nd. I am very loyal and loving and a very sensual lover I have X's that still want to sleep with me but because of loyality issues with them I wouldn't trust them again and with out feeling the security of a loving trusting realationship the firey lustful passion that makes us such good lovers just isn't there for them. I was wondering if 2 cancer leo cusps would be a good match and where to find one?

I too was born on July 21st!
I was born on july 27th, and I am without a doubt a cancer-leo!
We are indeed very complex individuals. We tend to change A LOT in every aspect of our lives. We love variety, and can bore very easily. Very often we have conflicting thoughts and tendancies, which can result in very intense mood swings. We have strong urges and desires which can make us feel restless if we can't achieve them. It can be very difficult to understand a canceo, but you can be sure that we always meen well.
We are very polite and generouse. We are loyal and trustworthy, creative and energetic. Canceos absolutly love a challenge and will take them on dauntlessly. We are very romantic, and have strong sexual desires. Canceos are very open-minded and understanding.
This is by far one of the most intense of all the zodiac imo. Two signs that are complete polar opposites working together. As a result, there is a very distinct duality to our nature. Passive, yet aggressive. Introvert, yet extrovert. Masculine, yet feminin. Active, yet retiring. Strong, yet fragile. Full of pride, yet lacking self esteem and confidence. You never know what we are going to be, so please be mindful of our feelings!
If you are looking to date a canceo, be ready for one hell of a ride! We need a partner that will accept us for who we are, we don't like to judge people so please don't judge us. Be ready for an active individual who will constantly change hobbies and interests. If we feel insecure or hurt, we may fall into a silent spell or as cancers call it "go into the shell". If this happens, DON'T PRY as this could result in an unpleasent explosion of emotion - just respect our need for solitude and we will bounce back in no time. If a canceo starts opening up to you, you can be sure that's a sign that they like you and trust you. If you can hold our attention and love us for us, and be very open to us, we will make awesome lovers.

Oh , Wow... im a july 21st baby , on the cusp of cancer/leo i am also a gemini rising... kenna frey! how funny.
If anyone one wants further reading:
Individuals born on the cusp of Cancer (the fourth Sign of the Zodiac) and Leo (the fifth Sign of the Zodiac) are ruled by both the Sun and the Moon. These cuspians are witty, ambitious and sometimes, extremely unscrupulous. Indeed, this particular cusp combination frequently produces the most corrupt of politicians who attain eminence. These natives are experts at appealing to the various vulnerable points of their associates and the inherent daring ambition provides the power of securing for themselves the preferment and advancement to which they aspire, even though better individuals may, of necessity, be sacrificed to their progress. Nonetheless, Cancer/Leo subjects will nurture the family group and take pride in the warm hospitality they invariably provide.
The Cancer/Leo cusp combination, also known as the Cusp of Oscillation, corresponds symbolically to the period of human life at around the age of twenty-eight. Of all twelve cusps, these natives most clearly display the split influences of two adjacent Signs almost opposite in their orientations. Here, traditionally feminine orientations (associated with the Moon) and traditionally masculine orientations (associated with the Sun) are combined equally in one single personality. Thus, Cancer/Leo males are likely to possess strong feminine sensibilities and Cancer/Leo females display an accentuated masculine side. Integrated in such a manner, these contrasting characteristics can result in a highly-balanced and healthy personality. However, when there is a tendency to vie for ascendancy, this cusp combination often produces wide mood swings which can cause immense psychic stress. It may be hard for others to know exactly how to approach these cuspians and those who know them well will frequently ease slowly into conversations, sitting quietly until the mood becomes apparent. Generally, it is difficult (if not impossible) to push Cancer/Leo subjects from one psychological state into another due to the fact that they are resistant to emotional manipulation. The water element of Cancer results in these natives tending to respond through emotion, while the fire element of Leo provides a more physical aspect to the character, coupled with a tendency to respond to the world by way of action.
Thus, these cuspians are normally quite intuitive and will leap headfirst into life, refusing to fret over whether their latest goal is realistic or practical. However, should the situation happen to require drama or courage, then these subjects most certainly possess both...in great abundance.
Cancer/Leo cuspians love being on the "cutting edge" of innovative projects and activities, possessing the vitality and ambition to be successful in creative endeavors. Indeed, "creativity" is one of the keywords attributed to these subjects and their caring nature ensures that the benefits of their imaginative powers will help others. Although they may not necessarily be suited to the position of leadership, they are efficient and their application to the task at hand is admirable. These natives also know how to delegate authority and work within a team environment. They usually prefer to be in the "thick of battle" rather than be found "sitting on the sidelines," and those who can work with these natives as true associates and partners are often able to share in such experiences, thus penetrating deeply into this cuspian's heart and mind. Cancer/Leo natives set high goals for themselves. They are great thinkers and possess magnificent memories. By nature, these are immensely sympathetic souls...particularly to those in distress and will contribute freely and lavishly toward relief. Loyalty to friends is yet another admirable trait associated with this cusp combination. Indeed, there is no trouble or disgrace sufficient to cause these natives to forsake those to whom they have given friendship. Females governed by this cusp combination are frequently among the best wives and mothers to be found in the entire Zodiac. They are good housekeepers and excellent cooks, with a pronounced desire for "pleasures of the table." Indeed, all these cuspians (regardless of gender) have a strong association with food.
Cancer/Leo natives are both emotional and traditional, often very interested in their heredity and ancestors. They are frequently prominent in the theatrical arena since their inherent flamboyance and love of attention make them natural candidates for fame. There is a tendency here for these natives to perceive themselves as the "center of the universe" and, sometimes, they are absolutely correct. However, often fascinated by their own brilliance and eloquence, Cancer/Leo cuspians may become self-hypnotized to the point where they consider themselves to be masters or mistresses of right or wrong. From high-minded reformers, they can turn into unscrupulous spellbinders and their self-confidence could cause them to ridicule their own conservatism. Once the Leo mind drops its idealism and falls prey to indolence or deceit, then the lunar forces of Cancer will take control in the worse possible way and stir the restless mind with jealousy. However, this may all be avoided by fostering the natural exuberance afforded by Leo and turning it to progressive channels. True Leo individuals born born during the early period of this particular cusp combination frequently rise high in such professions as medicine and law, as well as becoming fine educators. The reason for this is due to their human sympathies, which are strongly furthered by the lunar undercurrent supplied by the Cancer influence. Cancer/Leo cuspians often make excellent amateur chefs and some go on to make a career out of cooking. Since pleasure is paramount to this cusp combination, its natives are prone to sepnd money in order to feel good. Cancer/Leo cuspians enjoy physical exercise (which can aid to counter the stress inherent in the emotional nature of this blend) and there is a decided preference here to play team sports or participate in group exercise rather than any solo activity. In short, these natives are far too sociable to truly enjoy solitary running or any other form of individual activity.
Here, the powerful governing influence of the Sun (which governs Leo), assumes almost total control over uncertain Cancer (governed by the flickery and fickle Moon). Nonetheless, this lesser force is present and can evidence itself, much like the Moon will occasionally eclipse the Sun. Individuals born on this cusp combination should basically consider themselves to be the subjects of Leo and strive to shake off any lunar weaknesses that could prove to be their undoing. If such natives become retrospective, then they should consider the past and its traditions to be nothing more than a guide toward a much greater future. Should the Cancer/Leo cuspian become moody, then he or she needs to "snap out of it" and think in terms of ambition. When this combination becomes sympathetic to suffering, it is important that immediate steps be taken to improve the condition or the brilliant and intellectual qualities given to this cusp by Leo may easily become warped or even dissipated. Cancer/Leo cuspians tend to go through life with a strong shell around them...one that is not easily broken. However, such individuals are the first to express emotion in any given situation...the first to laugh and the first to shed tears. There is also a strong ability to see projects through to completion. Thus, they are good organizers and tend to be very popular or even inspiring individuals. These cuspians are prone to be more sensitive to the movement of the Moon through the Zodiac than are other cuspians and their mood frequently changes in tune with the Moon's passage. In essence, these are by nature normally gregarious, social, self-assured and fun-loving characters who live life with much enthusiasm. Usually domestic and peaceful souls, they possess strong emotional drives and refuse to sit still when loved ones are threatened. There is also a tendency in the character of this cusp combination to live in something of a fantasy world.
With regard to relationships, Cancer/Leo cuspians rank high in almost every area...the gambit from devotion to romance. In dealings with business partners and friends, these natives tend to fare better with individuals who are even in terms of disposition...ones who are able to promote a peaceful and constant environment in day-to-day activities. Steady jobs, well-founded relationships and a dependable mate are vital to these natives in order to even out their constrasting moods. Nonetheless, they will most likely remain happy (to some degree at least) so long as someone is paying attention to them.
The greatest strength of Cancer/Leo cuspians is to be found in their creativity and in their generosity toward others. Sometimes, these qualities will combine and result in an individual who provides thoughtful gifts or unique solutions to problems. In addition, blessed with an emotional orientation to life which makes them aware of the difficulties their loved ones must work through, this cusp is counted among the most understanding characters of the Zodiac.
The most important lesson to be learned by Cancer/Leo natives is that they need to work with people who are not only highly competent and can carry their own share of the load, but that such people are able to understand these cuspians on a personal level. It is also necessary for them to learn self-discipline and try not to concentrate overly much on the past...instead, living for the present. Additionally, these natives should note that it is essential for their blood and digestive organs to be well-toned. As with all cusp individuals, these cuspians tend to be attracted to others born on the cusp...particularly those who fall within the Libra/Scorpio and Capricorn/Aquarius combinations.

I hope that helps! I keep wanting to reject every zodiac description/explanation/theory I come across, but it's becoming increasingly difficult.
I'm a Cancer/Leo cusp, born on July 22nd, 1990, and just about everything posted here describes my overall personality.
I'm very creative, and grasp concepts very quickly.
I ocassionally have intense mood swings, going from intensely confident, to self-loathing, but I've overcome that with the help of my Scorpio girlfriend 
I'm diplomatic, and great with meeting new people. I'm an easygoing guy, but if someone actually manages to upset me I lose control. I find it easy to manipulate people into believing I feel a certain way, when I could feel the exact opposite.
I'm competitive, but remain friendly about it. If someone is better than me at an activity I enjoy, I observe and surpass them. I don't fully trust anyone, and see through fronts people attempt to put up.
I'm not sure if physical appearance matters, but I'm 6'0 tall, I have an Athletic build, light brown eyes (people always commenting on them..), high cheekbones, and somewhat of a rounder face.
I play guitar, and I'm ridiculously passionate about it. I write material with every opportunity I get. I also write for my college's newspaper, and enjoy any other type of writing.
As far as my relationship goes, after I found out about my ex girlfriend's history of cheating on me (we dated for years, she was an aquarius), I went on an emotional rampage. I hadn't ever given someone as much trust as I'd given her, and I couldnt believe I'd allowed myself to do so.
I didn't think I'd ever find another girl, because I wouldn't allow myself to trust another. That is, until I met my current girlfriend. I'm a cancer dominant Cancer/Leo cusp, and it seems to work out perfectly with my scorpio woman.
The relationship never seems to dull, even if we are to do the same things over and over. She's a bit jealous at times, but I find it to be reassuring in an odd way haha. She's completely straight-forward with me, which I love, and very sexual (which I obviously also love). Every other scorpio woman I know shows very similar traits to my girlfriend, so if you're a cancer, or cancer dominant leo/cusp I'd definitely say go for a scorpio woman

I am dating a July 25th and its like we are too much alike at times. Not sure if things will work out but I think we would be a powerhouse if they did. I guess just have to wait and see.
This site has a lot of great info on it. I feel like you all know me...j/k (kinda)
72386 (shwing
) so i want to throw out some randomness and see if it sticks.
Im dyslexic, or maybe just have dyslexic tendencies. I demand originality from my self, and the second i hear someone use my favorite joke; its in the garbage can. Texting stresses me out in a way that i can't fully understand which direction of emotion is being because there are SO many paradigms, so my texts are all littered with smilis of all kinds ??:\ . I've heard jeckel and Hyde; feels more like flapjack and captain k'nuckles. Im always looking for new original obscure arts and entertainment: movies music books games the artsier the better and rarely partake more than once (like, i have music ADD where i never finish songs). I like the idea of moving towards the greater good, but rarely find the motivation. Ladies with some sort of class and prudence are my thing, but only if i feel like the special one person they bloom for. I really have to kick my own a** todo stuff because no one else has power to do so. The only opinions and compliments i don't resist are people close to me, and if they are, it stings when they don't have nothing but nice things to say, cause i really try to do right by others to the point of fault, and only if i can escape the perils of procrastination and laziness. I feel stupid when i cry for what seems like no reason and fight it tooth and nail. My home is my castle but crazy disorganization flips off breakers in my head and things can get a little out of hand. I want to, and feel like i could, do or be anything... So many choices and jack of all trades doesn't always cut the mustard. My nickname is Macgyver cause i can make things happen with little to work with... That is if i feel like it. I love inside jokes. Im either the center of attention or totally ridding the fence. I enjoy being creative but nothing is ever original enough... I might ramble on somemore at another time, cause rambling on is very very easy sense everything connects together like a giant spider web of information. ... I've spread mixed messages across the eastern seaboard. Pisces are an evil torrent of emotion that will suck me in and drain me dry. I am my favorite cook and my favorite comedian, and there are plenty to agree. I play music in my head alot. Piece together scenarios and make little instant short films in my head alot. I have crazy adventurous vivid dreams of seeking or chasing or even being chased, and they are generaly enjoyable no matter how nightmarish it my seem to others. I've made sense of my own defenses to a science, like city gates, and clearance is required for sure. I seek people to open up to but usually find my self disappointed. Im too city for the country and to country for the city. I enjoy extreme classicalism blended with trendy original modern to futurism. My favorite colors are blue green and everything in between. I find it better to shop and leave my money at home, then make purchases based on "can i really not live with out it"...
Off the record, I made an account ONLY so I could post here. Haha. I'm also a July 21st baby, I'm so excited to have found likes!!!!

My birthday is july 21st, 1995 and I was born at noon.
Honestly, I don't think I fit some of the traits for the cancer leo cusp. For one I'm not materialistic at all. I don't need much to be happy other then to be social. I'm soooo not a home maker in any sense. Well...actually I am. I babysit and do online school while my parents work to support our family, and that's about the only home making I do. Trust me, I hate every day of it. I want to ride boxcar around the country for god sakes...this stuck at home thing doesn't fly well with me. I'm not materialistic at all! The only material posessions I really care about are the ones that connect me to people. I do fit some characteristics though, like I'm incredibly loving and loyal. I'm competitive...i love competition with a passion. I used to play call of duty until I fell asleep because I wanted to win just one more match before I finally decided to call it a night. I'm charismatic and influential, I do have my emotional ups and downs. I'm not easily hurt. I am prideful at times and more of an introvert who enjoys knowledge. I love knowing things, i spend a lot of my time learning about spirituality and reading about astrology and trying to talk to people about the things I've read. I'm fairly disorganized.
But there is a girl I have the hots for, her birthday is december 13th, making her a thorough sagittarius. I've read different things from different sites about any sort of compatabilty there. Some say there is good chemistry, others bad. what is your opinion, whoever is reading this?
