While many get into the festive spirit with ease, Cancer ends up feeling like they’re carrying the weight of a whole year’s worth of pent-up and unspoken emotions on their shoulders. This sign, deeply sensitive and strongly connected to people, family and memories, carries its feelings quietly, leaving the impression that everything is under control, when, in reality, a heavy knot is tightening inside.
Before the Holidays, all these feelings intensify, and the native Cancer feels that he can no longer keep everything he kept silent, everything he endured, everything he forgave without being asked.
Therefore, it is not at all surprising that it is the sign that cries the most during this period, releasing its soul through tears that wash away the wounds of a full year.
Cancer – the sign that hides everything until it bursts out
Cancer, being ruled by the Moon, is permanently connected to its own emotions, but also to the vibrations of those around it.

This apparently calm silence does not mean lack of affection, but a way of not hurting anyone. It’s just that all the accumulated emotions remain in his soul like a glass that gradually fills up, and when it goes over the edge, Cancer bursts out with an intensity that surprises others. In these moments, all that he has collected, all that he has endured in silence, all that he has not said out of a desire not to upset, comes to the surface like a huge wave.
Why do they shed bitter tears before the Holidays?

As the year draws to a close, the weariness of the soul becomes greater and greater, and the emotions that he has not expressed begin to weigh on him more and more. Around the Holidays, when everything around becomes more intense and sensitive, his emotional cup fills up and he can no longer hold back the tears.
For , the Holidays are not just lights and presents, but a time to activate memories, longings, losses and unfulfilled desires.
It is the sign that feels the most the absence of a loved one, that relives past moments with incredible intensity and that allows itself to be engulfed by a deep nostalgia.
This heightened sensitivity makes tears flow easily, not only from sadness, but also from longing or from a difficult-to-define mixture of joy and melancholy.
Although she seems to be a quiet nature, she has an extremely complex inner universe, full of thoughts and feelings that she rarely talks about. During this period, his need to be heard, to be understood and to be validated becomes stronger.
When he realizes he’s been silent too long and neglected himself to protect others, he bursts into an avalanche of honesty, telling everything he’s been holding inside for months.
The end of the year catches Cancer gathering not only emotions, but also responsibilities, stress and the obsessive desire to make the Holidays perfect for everyone. In such ongoing tension, even the slightest dissatisfaction can become the spark that ignites the emotional explosion. Tears become his natural way of releasing his soul and regaining his balance.
What uproar is being announced?
When he feels he can’t take it anymore, his rant has a deep charge. He does not become aggressive, but incredibly honest, sometimes to the point of pain.
He’ll tell truths he’s avoided for a long time, express his needs with unexpected clarity, and admit, perhaps for the first time, how hurt or ignored he’s felt. In this download it can bring to light forgotten things, overlooked situations and emotions accumulated over the years.
This is not an explosion meant to hurt, but a release that helps him cleanse his soul and put everything in a new order.
After allowing himself to cry and tell the truth, Cancer feels noticeably lighter. It is as if he has taken off a backpack full of stones that he has carried on his back for too long.
Tears help him clear his mind, see his priorities clearly, and release the tensions that have been grinding him down. As a result of this discharge, he becomes stronger, more self-centered and more determined to stop accepting situations that hurt him.
He enters the New Year with a completely different energy, with renewed confidence and a desire to start a chapter in which he also puts himself first.
The end of the year – an emotional rebirth for Cancer
Although the moment when he sheds bitter tears may seem difficult, for Cancer it is actually a rebirth. This rush comes just in time, before the Holidays, to cleanse the soul and prepare it for a new beginning.
After saying all that has been silent, after releasing all that has been holding him down, he enters the holidays with a lighter soul and a new year with strong emotional clarity. It’s a painful but profoundly healing process, through which Cancer becomes itself again, stronger, clearer and more ready for whatever comes next.
