Depending on where you are on the cusp, more Leo traits may show themselves (generally, the cusp is 5 days before and 5 days after and change). Cancer’s on the cusp of Leo can be emotionally volatile, since Leo has such a strong energy and Cancer has strong emotions. Cancer’s on the cusp of Leo are loyal, fair, and devoted to causes, friends, and relationships. Both Cancer’s and Leo’s love being in control of every aspect they can possibly control, so being in a position where you may not be able to control the outcome will especially upset you or make you uncomfortable.

However, there may be a constant battling of the two signs all the time, until a balance can be reached. Leo’s are fire signs and Cancer’s are water, so it’s hard to reach that harmony (and leads to volatility as said before). One moment you may want to be the center of attention, the next moment you may want space and to be left alone. Another thing to note about Cancer is that they are emotional, sometimes extremely overemotional, while Leo tends to be stoic and brush a lot of comments off - this means there may be times in your life you are hurt, but do not talk about it or show it to anyone.
