The red comes from 丙, the sun. When you walk in, the room gets warmer. The dragon (辰): big dreams — you hold more inside than people guess. Cancer is water: your strength goes into guarding your people and your place.

When the Red Dragon fights

When you fightLoud to say it, big to let it go.Like sunlight, every feeling shows.

How you're misreadPeople say you're too much.The expression is big. The heart is warm.

Your strength in a conflictYou hold them wide.After a fight, you're the one who says "Enough — let's eat."

What Cancer addsYou go into your shell.Cancer water makes your heart bruise more easily. Before you hide: "I'm hurt."

One small stepAs loudly as you speak, listen just as fully.
