Individuals born between June 22nd and July 22nd incarnated under the Sun sign of Cancer, the Crab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cancer’s role is the Nurturer. This nurturing sign makes good nurses and healers. Cancer’s statement is “I Feel!” Cancer is a Water sign and is also ruled or governed by the Moon, which influences emotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When dealing with any Water sign, you will be dealing with highly emotional, sensitive, and intuitive people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancer is the 4th sign of the Western zodiac<\/strong><\/a> and this sign correlates with the Fourth House – the Home House. The Home House deals with issues of family and home life, parental ties (especially with one’s mother), land and property, and security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancer is a “Water sign” and in the language of astrology, this means Cancerians, as Water signs, are people who are silent, mysterious types whose magic hypnotizes even the most determined realist. They have uncanny perceptions about people and are as rich as the oceans when it comes to feeling, emotion, and imagination. Cancerians have the potential for the depths of darkness or the heights of mysticism and art, just like their elemental family member signs Scorpio and Pisces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancerians help finish projects started by others and they are also very supportive. They have a strong desire to please. Cancerians, like all other water signs, live through their emotions, imaginations, and intuitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More specifically, Cancerians are energetic, intuitive, wise, inspired, sympathetic, nurturing, imaginative, sentimental, romantic, inventive, original, home-loving, and maternally instinctive and inclined (females). And like their Water sign brethren, they can be easily hurt. Cancerians are also withdrawn, obstinate, sentimental, and can be cold towards “outsiders.” Cancerians are known to be clingy and possessive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancer is a Cardinal sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cardinal sign traits are enterprise, ambition, initiating change, impetuosity, challenging, setting things into action, being or acting tough; assertive, and at times – aggressive. They can also be pushy, especially Capricorns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancer’s polarity is feminine or negative. Feminine or negative signs (which include Taurus<\/strong><\/a>, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, and Pisces) are passive, receptive, reflective, submissive, introvert, and withdrawn. These signs are inward looking and thus are more spiritually inclined than masculine signs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
