Cancer THE CRAB is the sign of the protector, the parent.
Emotions are a very important part in the life of a Cancerian. Although naturally defensive and very afraid of being hurt,
they put their hearts and soul in to relationships and are faithful, loving and loyal partners. At best Cancerians are
kind and sympathetic, with an urge to nurture and protect. Cancer has a deep inferiority complex, due the influence of the
moon on this very sensitive sun sign.
The Positive Points

and sympathetic, with an absolute urge to nurture and protect people around them. This is most apparent with home and family.

their outlook, but this does not get in the way of initiating change where they deem necessary. over emotional, hypersensitive,

Cancer, the fourth Sign of the Zodiac, is all about
the home. Those born under this Sign like to stick to their roots, they take great pleasure in the comforts of home and family.
Cancers are maternal, domestic, and love to nurture others. More than likely, their family will be large. Cancerians are at
their best when their home life is serene and harmonious. Traditions are upheld with great enthusiasm in a Cancerian's household,
since these people prize family history and love communal activities. They also tend to be patriotic, waving the flag, whenever
possible. A Cancerian's good memory is the basis for stories told around the dinner table - and don't be surprised if these
people get emotional about things. Those born under this Sign wear their hearts on their sleeves. The mascot of Cancer
is the Crab and, much like this shelled little creature, Cancerians are quick to retreat into their shells, if it suits their
mood. Little wonder they are called crabby! For Cancerians, it's no big deal, though, since they consider this 'shell' a second
home (don't they just love home!). The flip side of this hiding temperament is that these shell-bound Crabs are often quite
moody. What's more, in keeping with their difficulty in sharing their innermost feelings, it can be quite a Herculean task
trying to pry the Crab out of its secret hiding place. What to do? Give the Crab time; eventually, these folks will come out
to play again.When they they are ready, they'll be the first to say so, in keeping with the Cardinal Quality attached to this
Sign. It's said that Crabs are first to laugh and first to cry, so you can bet they'll finally fill you in on how they
are feeling. That shell, by the way, isn't the only tough thing about Crabs. These folks are tenacious and strong-willed and
like to get their way. If their well-documented kindness and gentleness doesn't do the trick, they are not above using emotional
manipulation to make things happen. If that still doesn't work, they'll just go back to their shell and sulk, or find a way
to get back at the source of their pain, since Crabs can be rather vindictive. That said, any self-respecting Crab would tell
you that they are ultimately motivated by protecting their home and loved ones, a most noble goal. Cancer is ruled by
the Moon, or the Great Mother of the heavens, as it was called in ancient times. Here on Earth, this is manifested in the
Crab's maternal instincts and desire to protect the home. This may appear smothering at times, but that's the Crab for you.
The Moon is associated with fertility too, a quality that is most pleasing to Cancer. The Moon is also the ruler of moods,
and Cancerians have plenty of those. These people can cry you a river, if they are so inclined, and they usually are. They
can be overly sensitive, easily hurt and prone to brooding. Even so, Crabs find it easy to be sympathetic to others and are
quick to show their affection. Their intuition is also a great help to them, especially in times of stress. The Element
associated with Cancer is Water. Like the waves of the sea, the Crab's emotions can make a quite a splash. Cancerians have
a tendency to dwell on, and emphasize the smallest matter. When it comes to relationships, this characteristic can result
in sentimentality or possessiveness. Crabs need to resist the temptation to become selfish or to feel sorry for themselves,
since this behaviour can exaggerate those emotions. On the bright side, Cancerians are good with money (although some
consider them too thrifty), probably because they value a sense of security. Crabs are also quick to help others and tend
to avoid confrontation. In keeping with their nurturing bent, those born under this Sign enjoy their food. A hearty picnic
in the park is heaven on earth to most Crabs. Cancerians often find that a robust workout session is just the tonic for
their touchy feelings. Team sports are always effective, since they offer a sense of community; water polo would be perfect
for aquatic Crabs. What are their team colours? The Moon is silver and white. However, since Cancerians have a tendency
to be lazy, they may need someone to push them out the door. But when it comes to the game of love, eager Crabs are devoted,
romantic and able to get things going on their own. Crabs are wise to listen to their gut instinct, since this Sign rules
the stomach. The great strength of the Cancer-born is the tenacity with which they protect their loved ones. Cancerians
don't ask for much either, a comfortable home and sense of peace is what is most important. It's that nurturing instinct which
makes Cancerians a pleasure to be with.
