If you were born between June 18th and June 24th, this makes you a Gemini-Cancer Cusp. Understanding what this means is an essential step in developing and growing as a human being.
Born as a cusp, you possess a special power that combines the best and worst of two zodiac signs into one, allowing you to exhibit behaviors and abilities that only people born on less than four days of each month can.
You Are the Cusp of Magic
You combine the witty and intelligent Gemini with the emotional and loving Cancer. When you put these two together, you find a person who can give off empathetic intelligence in life. This cusp changes the world and pioneers changes for people who need them the most.
Your time of birth is considered the cusp of magic and this is because of your easy-going personality and loving personality. This makes you appear almost childlike to some people. If we break down the two signs into one, we can better understand the Gemini-Cancer cusp.
Your Cancer sign fills you to the brim with emotion and makes you enjoy the company of other people. Because of your emotional nature, you care greatly for others, and you hate to see anyone upset. You like to help wherever you can, and people know that about you.
You attract people easily, but when you have an open-door policy like this, you can also invite people who want to take advantage of you.
Now comes your Gemini sign and this is what makes the cusp so powerful. You can balance your empathy with logic and intellect to make decisions that benefit others and only the people who deserve it.
People born on the cusp of magic are incredible listeners and communicators. You speak intelligently and can influence people significantly with your words. Everywhere you go people open up to you because they see you as a great person to listen and someone who cares about what they have to say. You use this as an advantage in your life to get the things you want because of your Gemini cusp.
This trait is another reason why it is so powerful to be a cusp born. Cancer is a weak sign because you often have too much empathy for people, so you listen too much and never take time to express what you are thinking, but as a Gemini-Cancer cusp, you can finally tell the person when to stop talking or put your foot down when someone is taking advantage of you.
This is your competitive edge.
You Are Easy-Going
Your cusp is one that loves when things are easy in life, and you do not like challenges. People with this sign would instead go out of their way to avoid an issue rather than confront it head-on. This trait often results in you holding in your feelings when you should be telling someone how it is.
Even though you are a Gemini-Cancer cusp, you are still someone who is pretty passive in life. You tend to keep your feelings in, and this results in you piling up your emotions until you finally blow up.
Your Gemini sign tells you that you do not need help from anyone and you can handle everything yourself, but your Cancer sign tells you that you are not worthy of handling the problems and you should suck it up and deal with it.
Strengths of the Gemini-Cancer Cusp
Since you are a cusp, you have an abundance of strengths that most other signs do not possess. When you combine all of the good traits of two unique signs you come up with something quite incredible.
Patient
You are never in a hurry, and everything seems to come quickly to you in life. You never seem to struggle to achieve the things you want, and everything is relaxed when you are around. You are the person who will sit and wait even after everyone else has left.
When you are the most reliable and patient person in the room, this leads you to get taken advantage of though.
Independent
You do not like to share your personal affairs with others, and you keep everything to yourself. This makes it difficult for you to open up in relationships and with family.
People may sometimes refer to you as a recluse because you may be the person who skips out on holidays and family events just because you do not feel like going. If you do share personal things with someone, this means you care significantly for that person.
Committed
When you put your mind to something, you stop at nothing to get it done. This applies to professional and personal life because both of your signs combined means you are very loyal to your endeavors.
Once you decide on a job, career or partner, you do your best to stick with that no matter what happens. You like stability in your life and jumping around from job to job or partner to partner does not allow you to achieve that.
Inspirational
Everywhere you go, and everything you do fills you with inspiration. You also encourage others wherever you go because of your ability to communicate and motivate people.
You speak with a specific energy that draws people into what you are saying causing them to feel uplifted after spending time in your presence immediately. You often deal with things on the inside that you do not share, so you find your most enjoyment from propping up others instead.
Weaknesses of the Gemini-Cancer Cusp
When you combine two signs, you not only bring out the best, but you can sometimes bring out the worst. When two of the signs overlap with a negative, it becomes especially overpowering and sometimes even crippling if it is a significant issue.
Emotional
Both the Gemini and Cancer are emotional beings, so this comes out in full force when you are a cusp. You tend to cling on to the people in your life when you are feeling down, and even though you are an independent person, you do enjoy the company of others when you are upset.
The primary source of your emotion comes from when someone fails to meet your expectations. If a friend or family member was supposed to meet you somewhere and they stood you up, this would upset you very quickly.
Because of your emotional nature, this also leaves you susceptible to hatred and jealousy. When sometimes crosses you the wrong way you are not afraid to burn bridges and shut that person out of your life. If this is a family member or close friend, this could become a problem. Your emotional nature causes you not to forgive quickly.
Demanding
Similar to your emotional nature you are a person who is demanding of the people in your life. You are sensitive when others do not meet your needs, and you always feel the other person in your life is not acting at their full potential.
When you are in a relationship, this is a problem because you will always battle with your significant other regarding who does more and who loves the other person more. You also become defensive if you see your loved one with someone else or spending time with someone other than you. You demand all the love and attention he or she has to offer.
Self-Destructive
When you combine all of the weaknesses of the Gemini-Cancer cusp into one, you come up with a sign that is incredibly self-destructive when things go wrong. You do not pick yourself up quickly from the dust when things are not going your way, and that is your major weakness in life. If you are going through a rough time whether it be professionally or personally you succumb to self-loathing and isolation.
You tend to think that no one cares about your problems, so you shut yourself away from friends and family when things go wrong, and it takes you a long time to get out of a rut if you find yourself in one.
Having this attitude also leads to issues like depression, anxiety, and addiction. People with this sign are likely to develop problems with addiction during times of great sadness, but it is important to realize that you have a support system around you and you need to use them.
Conclusion
The Gemini-Cancer cusp is a powerful sign full of emotion and intellect. You indeed can change the world when you combine your good intentions with your wisdom. A significant factor that could make a huge difference for this sign is surrounding yourself with the right people.
Having a strong team around you to support you when you are down will allow you to remain positive when it matters the most.
