Mercury in Cancer
Mercury is the shape of your attention: how you take the world in, turn it over, and hand it back as words.
Mercury in Cancer — from your Starborn reading
A Cancer Mercury remembers the tone, not the transcript, how a room felt, the exact word that stung years ago. You think in moods and tides; some days the sentences pour, some days the shell stays shut, and both are weather, not failure. You learn what you feel safe enough to learn, and you speak most freely to the few who've earned the kitchen-table voice. Facts reach you wrapped in feeling, and you file them by who was there. Ask you for directions and you'll describe the bakery on the corner, because that's how the map lives in you.
