In medical astrology, Cancer rules the breasts and stomach and, through its ruler the Moon, the female reproductive system.
Cancer is a home-loving sign concerned with nurturing and the family. It is the sign of the mother. Moonstone reflects the intuitive quality of its ruler, the Moon. Moonstone’s soothing qualities calm a tendency to emotional overreaction and touchiness. Moonstone affects the ebb and flow of the menstrual cycle and regulates that cycle. However, if worn, it may need to be removed at the highly charged full moon — Cancer’s most sensitive time. Cancer has strong links with the past, and Pink Tourmaline aids acceptance of the past and enhances trust.
