Sign of the Zodiac Cancer
Your element: Water
Your ruling planets: The Moon
Symbol: The Crab
Your stone: Moonstone
Life Pursuit: Constant reassurance and intimacy
Vibration: Moody
Cancer's Secret Desire: To feel safe (emotionally, spiritually, romantically and financially)
Description:
Those born under the sign of Cancer, ruled by the mysterious Moon, are one of the zodiac's enigmas. It is fair to say that most Cancers are a bundle of contradictions. Compassionate and caring with friends, family and lovers, yet they can cut to the bone with their jealous remarks and ever-changing moods. Endearingly eccentric on one hand, and on the other, insecure about how others see them. Like their astrological symbol - the Crab - Cancers can appear hard and insensitive on the outside. However, for those of us who know and love a "Moon Child", we understand that deep below lies a softness and sensitivity that makes them so very special...
Just as the Moon goes through many changes as it moves from its new to full phases, Cancers too go through many new and full phases of experience. Life doesn't stand still for this sign, even if they remain in one place, because they live so much in their internal oceans of emotions. Their link with the Moon often makes it impossible for them to operate on an even keel from day to day. Up and down like the proverbial yo-yo, most Cancerians feel one way one minute, then sometimes totally different the next. But this characteristic is part of their charm.
Love and romance matter more than anything else to this sign (but this occasionally shares first place with having lots of money in the bank). No other sign romances better, equally though, no sign takes it so badly when romance turns sour either. But with their changeable natures Cancerians are fascinating, mysterious, stimulating and extremely alluring. This sign is one of the most magic of all and once their magic has reached you, they are the most beguiling companions. After all, isn't the Moon the most talked about and romantic galactic identity?
Love & Blessings

Taurus is not your best match. Cancer is a water sign and water signs go best with other water signs. Scorpio is your best match, followed by Pisces. The reason it is this way is because cancers are emotional and moods can change like the wind. What better sign to understand you than another water sign. Not everyone can handle the intensity of the moon. Scorpio welcomes it, because they are just as intense and emotional as you are. My answer isnt just a textbook answer that i copied from some website, i live and breathe water sign and any other zodiac sign. Taurus is an ok match, but not the best match for you. Of course anyone can fall in love with any sign, but some signs just get each other. It is almost as if you were meant to be. An unspoken bond.
Fire Signs - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.
Earth Signs - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn.
Air Signs - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius.
Water Signs - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.

Although cancer is a motherly sign the males often are nurturing to others for self purpose. Male cancers are good at business for this reason.
Cancer & cancer are a difficult pair. Both are sensitive and enjoy being heard. Other water signs seem to be a little too "weird" for comfort.
Fire signs are fun but they could be a little too wild for your homey side. Perhaps a earth sign is a good partner for you

Don't ever hook up with a female Cancer or other water sign, it won't work. Male Cancers tend to be emotional and unstable. Your best bet would be with an Earth sign as they will add a complement of stability and logic. Although astrology books frequently advise that your ideal mate is one of the same sign or element, I have found that just doesn't work. You need a complementary sign (e.g. Earth & Water, Air & Fire).

Haha! I got here before caren_bvb could STEAL my sources!
whatabiyotch... anyways!
Cancer is a water sign and represents the highly emotional nature of the fourth sign of the Zodiac, to which you belong. Being born under Cancer you are under the sway of the element of water and this also makes you highly caring, generous and intuitive. As a water sign you are highly evolved and even spiritual by nature. The water signs are astrologically and karmically more developed and refined in spirit.
You are for the most part a person of feeling and sensation and this means your experience of life is very much coloured by your sentiment. Often you will ignore your own better rational processes in favour of how you feel rather than what you think about a situation or someone. Obviously that is why others turn to you when they need a shoulder to cry on and why you also would do well in any of the caring professions. This is highlighted by your key life phrase: “I nurture”. Anyone who knows you will agree that you are one of the easiest and most approachable people to connect with if they need advice in trying times.
You are extremely receptive to your environment and the people around you and will often “pick up” their energies, moods and possibly even thoughts. This ability serves you well; your intuition about peoples’ intentions is quite often correct. Your knack of knowing their issues before they even open their mouths attracts them to your natural and helpful style. The difficulty with this, however, is that you also have a tendency to mother others and absorb their negativity. You must guard against this as it will be difficult for you to turn away anyone in need.
As the Moon rules you, you reflect the qualities of this changing Lunar body. At times your emotions get the better of you and you swing from high to low. Family members and friends will be well aware of your moody nature. Those who know you, however, have no doubt about your loyal and supportive nature. You treat everyone as a mother does a child. Friends can turn to you whenever they are experiencing difficulties, knowing that your sensitive and compassionate touch will lighten their load.
You are the consummate home-maker. Even men born under this sign express a ‘feminine’ aspect to their character and love the kitchen and other activities that make them feel more secure in their domestic space. There is also an air of nostalgia surrounding you. You love to collect or keep mementoes of your past, scrapbooks and other memorabilia that can elicit memories of those you care for. Your memory is indeed extraordinary and you have a knack of recalling not just facts, but especially any good turn or kindness bestowed upon you. You're always able to discuss many different subjects with different folk, because you have a retentive memory but also impartiality to people generally. Dealing with people comes naturally to you and, coupled with your shrewd and intuitive sense, makes you a good businessperson. Even if you don’t pursue business as such, you can apply these skills to managing your day-to-day life most resourcefully.
Because the Moon’s domain is the night, many Cancerians are night owls. You may feel most creative when the twilight hours begin. You feel at home in the evening and this is due to your strong affinity with the vibrations of the Lunar energies. Writing, meditating, contemplating or taking leisurely strolls under the Moonlight will energise you.
What sun-sign goes best with Cancer in the zodiac?
CANCER goes with Scorpio, Pisces, Taurus and Virgo. (best match is Taurus)
Best Match For Cancer Is Taurus
This is an excellent match and you will find it hard to tear yourselves away from one another! Stay clear of getting too wrapped up in one another though...
Worst Match For Cancer is Aries
Hardly a match made in heaven Aries and Cancer tend to clash. Do not despair if you are in one of these relationships, true love will overcome. Both Aries and cancer are powerful and very self expressive. However, Cancer can be sensitive and somewhat anxious while Aries people are dominant and spontaneous. Aries is not the greatest at expressing their feelings. This leads to the constant annoyance of the moody, retrospective Cancer.

Check out an astrology site but for the most part, you get along great with scorpio. It's because you can keep your cool and help the scorpio female at the same time. It is very rare to get along with others of the same sighn because it is much like trying to live with yourself; if you are stubborn so are they, if you like to lead, so do they, and so on so you don't get to do the stuff you like to do as much.

THE CANCER MALE
The Cancer male may often be moody, but he is rarely mean...his moods being the meanest when he is the most afraid of losing something or someone. An extreme romantic, he is not always confident of his own attractiveness. Nonetheless, he understands women very well and is fond of children. The Cancer man is kind but, contrary to popular opinion, is not soft. Basically, this is a one-woman man who will sulk privately for days when his feelings are hurt and is best left alone when he is "down." Too much sympathy tends to make the Cancer male brood. He is far too deep to be able to sum-up on first acquaintance and snap judgments should not be made about this man. Women tend to like his sense of humor and his outlook on the world, but he can put on an act of geniality to hid his own feelings of inadequacy and insecurity. It takes a long time to truly get to know the Cancer male. He will be an amusing and gallant escort or sweetheart (if he wishes to be), but is very difficult to pin down. This man often avoids a serious relationship for as long as possible and even then, will enter into it with great trepidation. If he believes he has found the right partner, then he will settle blissfully into married life. However, if he suspects he has chosen the wrong woman, then he can be impossible. Saving money is substantially more attractive to the Cancer male than spending it. Though not exactly miserly, he does think twice before splurging and this man's sense of humor seldom includes the topic of cash. Money is no laughing matter to the Cancer male, who could probably add a column of figures in his head before he learned the alphabet and most likely had a paper route by the time he was eleven years old. The man who falls under the jurisdiction of this sign has a rather interesting idea of economy. He would rather go to the best restaurant and get what he pays for than risk offending his sensitive tastes with over-cooked food and indifferent service in a second rate establishment. By the same token, he thinks it is silly to waste money on a cloth coat when a mink will amortize itself over the years. In short, quality and thrift are synonymous to the Cancer male.
The Cancer male tends to be somewhat subjective in emotional matters, often unable to see anything from an objective point of view when he becomes upset. Nevertheless, he is usually generous with his affection and craves lots of affection in return...frequently feeling bitterly deprived if he does not get it. In short, words of love are music to his ears. Most girlfriends and wives of Cancer men find their mate to possess much sex-appeal, but any partner needs to learn that the male of this Sign likes to be left alone without question when he feels the need to sort out problems. Flattery will not work with this man unless there is a genuine desire to please him and no attempt is being made to achieve a personal end. He can be deeply hurt, so any quick and thoughtless criticism or reproof should be restrained. The Cancer male is attractive...but he is ulikely to believe it. Thus, it is necessarily to constantly boost his ego. This man will probably be quite a good cook and will almost certainly delight in stories regarding his family tree. Photography is a common hobby among Cancer males and few will live their lives without owning at least one camera. In general, Cancer men are courtly, courteous and considerate. They dress well (albeit conservatively) and generally hate to stand out in a crowd. When at home (which is usually often), they enjoy the comfort and security of dressing-down in their favorite, worn-in clothing which they rarely alter. There is an inherent tendency here to hate being in the spotlight and a Cancer male will do almost anything in order not to attract surplus attention. He prefers to be secure in all things and may regard unwontedly personal discussions as a breach of that security. Unfortunately, Cancer men have a tendency to be gloomy at times, disparaging everything and everybody. Almost without exception, a male born under the jurisdiction of Cancer will have a very close relationship with his mother...and those who do not will probably be totally alienated from them. Cancer men love to be babied by females...even though they are unlikely to admit it.
Cancer males have marked mechanical and artistic abilities. They are apt to devote much of their time to working out new principles and perfecting new ideas. While these are indeed excellent traits, Cancer men are prone to carry them to extremes. These males belong mainly to the manufacturing sphere of life and they are positively shrewd in all business matters, having a good head for business. Cancer males wish to be recognized as being thoroughly competent to perform whatever duties entrusted to them. They possess a natural feeling of responsibility and dislike to be hampered or restricted in any fashion. Cancer men can be ruled by kindess, but are sure to resent the least semblance of compulsion. They should strive to associate themselves with those who have more projective and progressive minds...people who can see the necessity of departing from the established custom.
The Cancer male has a natural tendency toward the beautiful and artistic in all things. As a result, some highly talented musicians, artists and professional people have been born under this Sign. They have considerable literary ability and often make excellent judges, lawyers, physicians and brilliantly magnetic speakers. Some of the finest scholars and students have been governed by Cancer...to say nothing of some of the most wealthiest men in the world. Because of the maternal aspect of the Moon (Cancer's ruling planet), the Cancer male has an overwhelming need to protect himself and his family. Though generally domestic and peaceful, he possesses strong emotional drives and will refuse to sit still when loved ones are threatened. As a father, the Cancer male will be caring, gentle, sympathetic and understanding. He will have infinite patience with his children, genuinely interested in everything they do and spend countless hours entertaining them. He will be proud of his sons and fiercely protective of his daughters. When his children do become independent, the Cancer man may show signs of crankiness. In short, the Cancer male is prone to rebel against his children's desire to experiment with the outside world, preferring to believe that they will lean on him forever.
