Cancer is a sign of mass receptivity, where the individual receives the first sense of belonging and integration with others. Sagittarius is a hot and dry sign, Pisces and Cancer are cold and moist. What must be understood about the temperaments is that they represented a holistic view of both the inclinations and the physiology of the individual. Jupiter has dominion over the sanguine temperament, which is a specific and singular indicator of a certain character type. The emotion associated with the sanguine type is joy, and it is not surprising that spring is the associated season.
Spring is a time of emergence, of new life, of optimism and of joy.
It is a time to enjoy with a certain good-natured roguishness, as is childhood, the sanguine time. But such a day tomorrow as today, And to be boy eternal. So there is an immediacy about the sanguine type, a childish self-concern that harbours no malice. A quickness to react, but also a quickness to move on. A sensual gratification that extends into a love of life.
