Can anyone tell me what it says about me?

Question

My sign is cancer. What does that say about me?

Answer 1

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.

The bright side
At best Cancerians are sensitive, kind and sympathetic, with an absolute urge to nurture and protect people around them. This is most apparent with home and family. So lies the soft side of Cancer, but there is a hard side too, they can be very enterprising, shrewd, and self-assured.
When all is in tune Cancerians are intuitive, imaginative and resourceful, knowing instinctively when to reach others and when to withdraw into their protective shell.

Kind, sensitive, sympathetic, imaginative, maternal/paternal, solicitous, protective, cautious, patriotic, tenacious, shrewd, thrifty, resourceful, a good homemaker.

The dark side
Cancer has a deep inferiority complex, any hurt (both real and imagined), is brooded upon at length. Cancerians tend to look back at, and hold on to things from the past, they can be very possessive. They are inherently conservative in their outlook, but this does not get in the way of initiating change where they deem necessary.

over emotional, hypersensitive, moody, devious, changeable, self-pitying, unforgiving, unstable, gullible, untidy.

Ailments
Gastric disorders, heartburn, indigestion, obesity, ulcers.

Beneficial foods
Watercress and milk.

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?

Answer 7

Cancer is the Fourth Sign of the Zodiac. Its name derives from the Latin "cancer...literally "the crab." Cancer individuals are "tried and true." They tend to cling to tradition as though they were a part of it, yet their moods and even their purposes may become as changeable as this Sign's ruling celestial body...the Moon. Thus, such self-contradiction is understandable, given that it is part of the Cancer person's innate nature. Much like their representative symbol, the Crab, Cancers are well protected on the outside but are prone to be soft on the inside. They are good at sustaining others and appear to have a mission to take care of not only people in and of themselves, but also their means of making a living. The association of this Sign with water dates back to the very emergence of astrology itself and is Babylonian in origin. In Egypt, Cancer was represented by two turtles known as the "Stars of the Water" and occasionally as an obscure aquatic creature known as Allul. Perhaps more than any other Sign, Cancer is symbolic of the passive, receptive but profoundly powerful and emcompassing female force in nature...the all-nourishing or all-devouring mother. The Crab itself is associated with the sea...the cradle of life. Those born under the Sign of Cancer should strive to find a safe haven in which their exquisite sensitivity can bloom and flourish. If this is not achieved, then they will find themselves dominated by the prickly and grasping aspect of the Cancer personality.
The origin of the symbol...or glyph...of Cancer has been given diverse interpretations. Some sources describe it as a representation of the breasts, an area of the anatomy ruled by Cancer and which is also indicative of the inherent nurturing nature of this Sign. Other sources liken the glyph to a pair of crab claws, intertwined in such a manner as to represent the dual nature of the Cancer individual. In this latter interpretation, it could well be considered similar to the Asian symbol of the Yin and the Yang. In Vedic Astrology, this glyph signifies the Womb of Time, in which all manifestation takes place and is symbolic of the caring qualities associated with motherhood, as well as spiritual creativity.
Also known as the Sign of the Prophet or Teacher, Cancer is Negative in polarity (as are Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces). The general characteristics of Negative Signs lean toward introversion and prefer to draw upon personal resources rather than look for external stimuli. Such individuals are naturally more receptive, sensitive and nurturing than are the Zodiac Signs of Positive polarity (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius). However, Negative Signs are also likely to be much more cautious, retiring and standoffish than their Positive counterparts with a tendency to keep personal feelings under tight control. Taurus is the most introverted of the Negative Signs (with Virgo a close second).

All Zodiac Signs governed by the Elements of Earth and Water are considered to be Feminine in nature. Thus, Cancer (ruled by water) is considered Feminine (as are Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces). Feminine Signs are traditionally conceived as being more receptive and less active than their Masculine counterparts which are ruled by the Elements of Fire and Air (the Zodiac Signs of Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius). Feminine Signs focus primarily on the emotional and material world with particular attention to sensitivity and depth of feeling. Feminine Signs are said to be noctural or night-oriented. Therefore, the term "feminine" should be viewed in the same light as the Yin (or dark) Polarity of the Tao.

Cancer is the natural ruler of the Fourth House of the Zodiac, commonly referred to as the "House of Family and Home" and known in Vedic Astrology as the "Subterraneous Place." This is the field which represents the childhood home and all that such implies. It is the place of an individual's deepest personal roots. It is also the house of tradition and the location of a person's most intimate and ingrained nurturing. In addition, this house is the place of human ending..."from dust we come and to dust we go," thus completing the mortal circle. The Fourth House has been classified as the "Womb of Eternity," where all things come into being and pass out of being at the appointed time. It is the House of Genesis and also of Nemesis. This house contains the basic and symbolic foundation of an individual...the side of a person that decorates and maintains a home, deciding what such a home will look like and how much privacy will be needed. The Fourth House also deals with matters of real estate but most importantly, it is the house where emotional memories are stored and from which an individual operates on a subconscious level. The Fourth House is governed by the Planet Moon...not truly a "planet," but classified as such for the purposes of continuity in the Science of Astrology.

Cancer subjects are "tried and true" individuals who cling to tradition as though they were a part of it. Some are even fearful of the future and the unknown, while others find the real world to be a threatening place, whereupon they retreat into dreams and fantasies, sheltering themselves in the relative safety of the past. Yet, the moods and even the purposes of Cancer natives may become as changeable as this Sign's ruling planet, the Moon. However, such self-contradiction is understandable when recognized as part and parcel of the innate Cancer nature. These are people who are home-loving, fond of family life and domestic tranquility, but who also enjoy travel and adventure. Those governed by Cancer adore the past and, at times, practically live in it. This accounts for the manner in which they seek out the new while always returning to the old. Cancer individuals are sensitive, though this may not always be displayed. Arguments tend to wear them down, crticisms hurt them and, somewhat like the crab which symbolizes their sign, they are prone to crawl into their shells under such circumstances. Proud with deep reserves of emotion, Cancer natives tend to "scuttle away" at the first sign of danger. Basically, these are timid souls yet, in a real emergency, they tend to be fantastically brave. Those who fall under the jurisdiction of Cancer tend to build boundaries, make homes and gather things for incubation, protection, nurturance and "mothering." Security is all-important to Cancer natives there are definite inclinations toward melancholy and introversion.
While strongly conservative, Cancer individuals are nonetheless fond of amusements and the social life. Their moods may differ by or night, and even changes in the weather are liable to affect the restless Cancer nature but, beneath that variable surface, these are steadfast characters who disapprove of sudden or radical changes. The loyalty of a Cancer subject to friends and family is constant, unless broken by some actual hurt or imagined slight. In that event, he or she may never feel the same toward a person. Although imaginative and affectionate, those born under this Sign of the Zodiac are not apt to show such emotions in an outward fashion. Thus, they are all too often misunderstood or go unappreciated. Any form of spite or jealousy should be avoided by those governed by Cancer and indeed, these can be the Cancer individual's greatest faults. The goal of Cancer natives should be toward outward expressions of sympathy and loyalty. If this is not achieved, then friends may perceive them to be fickle. Cancer subjects respond gratefully to appreciation and encouragement but will not tolerate interference in personal affairs by anyone...no matter how close that person might be. In short, those born under the jurisdiction of this Zodiac Sign are not truly quite as "soft" as some would imagine. These individuals are prone to giving the wrong impression and, very often, Cancer subjects themselves are not at all sure what they wish the desired impression to be.

Cancer natives are frequently vivacious and normally humanitarian by nature. Many devote themselves to worthy causes. However, there is a tendency to become too opinionated to understand another's viewpoint. When this happens, the Cancer individual is always puzzled as to why he or she is being neglected or ignored. In short, Cancer subjects have a difficult time in admitting personal blame or fault. Occasionally, the firmest decisions of a Cancer individual will be abandoned without reason...yet one more indication that those who fall under the jurisdiction of this Sign are swayed by moods. Nevertheless, despite these contradictory characteristics, Cancer can prove to be one of the best Signs of the Zodiac if its natives are willing to subordinate their morbid side and refuse to dwell in the past. Cancer persons are blessed with strong determination and great perseverance, otherwise they would not go to the extremes that they do. If these faculties are employed toward constant effort instead of toward futile conflict, then Cancer subjects can attain the loftiest of goals and free themselves of worry and despondency.

Those governed by Cancer have a tendency to gravitate toward becoming a "jack-of-all trades." Deep concentration on one specific aim will aid these individuals in gaining success. However, the heart of a Cancer individual must be in a project fully before he or she can be interested enough to totally commit to the work involved. Thus, the Cancer subject should always be free to choose a career that he or she really loves. Yet, there will be times when Cancer individuals are hesitant to commit themselves...to a course of action or a personal relationship or a promise. Nevertheless, once committed, Cancer natives feel obligated to keep their word. Those who fall under the jurisdiction of this Sign will shrink from opening their hearts to anyone if they feel they have made a mistake or taken a wrong step. That having been said, Cancer is quite adept at grumbling in general when things fail to go as anticipated. There also tends to be a fear of old age associated with this Sign, which is why Cancer subjects are prone to keep looking and thinking young...a self-protective mechanism against the loneliness Cancer believes is sure to accompany advancing years. Pride comprises a large portion of the Cancer personality, both in a positive and negative sense. On the positive side, Cancer individuals take pride in family, position, children and the home. On the negative side, pride may prevent the Cancer native from making and forming lasting friendships since he or she can be very suspicious, constantly questioning the motives of others and never quite ready to accept open-heartedly what appears to be overt overtures of friendship. In other words, Cancer persons tend to be perpetually "niggled" that something somewhere is not quite right. They are also inclined to be somewhat smothering or overly-possessive of loved ones.

In business, those governed by Cancer succeed along established lines. They do well as manufacturers and merchants. Quality is important to a Cancer native and he or she will be proud of whatever is produced. However, Cancer individuals must learn to be progressive since they are liable to vacillate in business (as well as other fields) and may find themselves left far behind. Professionally, Cancers make for good teachers or lecturers. If inspired with the romance of a subject, they will go to the ends of the earth to communicate their passion for that subject to their students. Librarians, historians and scientists are also excellent career choices. Cancers are capable lawyers and politicians, while many rise to high ranks in art, literature and music. Nonetheless, there is a tendency here for missed opportunities because of the inherent Cancer changeability. This particularly applies to those Cancer individuals who hold subordinate positions and become too content with their "lot in life" to think of what they might have been, instead of becoming what they should be. Occasionally, proper business associations can do much to verify this. Cancer and Capricorn are opposite enough to form a strong combination. There is also an affinity between Cancer and Aquarius, which marks this pairing as good business partners. An association with Gemini may also prove most beneficial...provided Cancer can keep the versatile Gemini partner under due restraint. A teaming with the exuberant Leo may also be very effective...as long as Leo is allowed to be the dominant factor in any decision-making.

Traditionally, the complex mother/child relationship will dominate the emotional life of any Cancer subject. This dynamic may play itself out in a number of ways...the Cancer individual taking the role of good or bad mother...good or naughty child. In child mode, those born under this sign hunger for love. There never seems to be enough to bring true satisfaction since Cancer natives feel compelled to doubt the sincerity of such affection and, therefore, are obliged to test it by seeing how much a friend or partner can endure before withdrawing or withholding the desired love. In this regard, the generally mild Cancer can be the most "pushy" of the Zodiac Signs and there will always be an overwhelming need for security, protection, tenderness, domestic harmony, ritual and routine. At their best, Cancer subjects may be counted among the most loving of people. They will be profoundly intuitive, quick to grasp and respond to the emotional needs of others. Such Cancer persons will inspire and nurture growth...of children, animals, plants, projects, homes, ideas and cultures. Thus, it is important that Cancer individuals find the safe haven in which their Sign's exquisite sensitivity can bloom and flourish...otherwise, he or she may become dominated by the prickly and grasping side of the Cancer nature.

Cancer natives love the security of a home around them and the female especially often makes for an excellent parent. These are also frequently intellectual souls with an extremely retentative memory...indeed, memory recall is one of Cancer's most special gifts...and nature which is yet unspoiled particularly appeals to the Cancer personality. It is important that Cancer individuals use their inborn tenacity to help them succeed only when they have carefully considered which course should be taken. The Moon makes Cancer emotional and those who fall beneath its jurisdiction should not fight those emotions, or it could lead to inhibitions and unhappiness. Cancer subjects should strive to be unafraid of others perceiving their basic qualities. Only then will Cancer individuals find joy in releasing emotions under all circumstances. The secret fear of those who are governed by the Sign of Cancer is that they will be hurt and, in the end, will have nobody to care for.

In the eyes of a Cancer female, marriage can be a status symbol and it is not unusual for this woman to consider giving up quite a passionate romance in favor of a more stable and conventional partnership. As a sweetheart, she tends to be somewhat clinging...too much so for some types of men...but she possesses the very feminine ability of making any male feel as though he is ten feet tall. The Cancer woman likes to mother the men in her life when given the chance, although she usually appreciates being told not to overly fuss, for if a man takes too much advantage of her, she can turn around and accuse him of being lazy, selfish and degenerate. The Cancer woman likes to be mastered and is not particularly eager to win every argument or come out on top every time. This female is essentially feminine in her mannerisms and posture. She will probably be far more seductive in the true sense of the word than any other female of the Zodiac, but this is often an unconscious trait and is seldom planned. Ruled as she is by the Moon, the moods of a Cancer woman will change as often as that satellite's phases. Being extremely sensitive and jealous, Cancer females are frequently cruel and vindictive, sharply resenting any personal criticism and prone to fly into a rage at some imagined slight. Pride is so strongly marked in this woman that she will never accept the offer of pity or sympathy. Though they often claim to be the paragons of truth, women who fall under the jurisdiction of Cancer are inclined to much fabrication and will gossip about personal affairs, often divulging family secrets even to those who are almost strangers to them. Thus, it is never truly safe to confide in the Cancer woman.
While often fickle in love affairs, the maternal elements of the Cancer female are usually highly developed and she customarily makes for a devoted wife and parent. In marriage, the woman who falls under the jurisdiction of this Sign should be allowed to go her own way in every small matter and told what to do in the larger ones. She will provide an attractive and artistic home, but will not always want to stay in it. Being a female of the Moon, this woman will be an excellent housekeeper but is likely to constantly rearrange the furniture. Nevertheless, she will be neat and orderly at all times. As a mother, she is far from dominating or demanding. In fact, she often neglects to understand the nuances of her children's different characteristics. Despite the maternal instincts of the Cancer woman, her patience with children is not always reliable for this female can be temperamental. The Cancer mother is at her best with little children, babies and todlers, but is prone to resent the increasing independence shown by older children. She is also likely to be impatient of what she considers "strange adolescent ways." That having been said, it should be noted that the Cancer female does possess a strong and tender love for children, as well as tenderness for all creatures of the animal world. There is normally a marked gift for intuition with this woman which enables her to recognize friend from foe, and she is almost sure to form any likes or dislikes based on first impressions.

Cancer women have a great talent for music and drama. They also have a strong inclination to engage in literary pursuits. It is into such arts that they can throw all the natural pathos inherent in this Sign's character. These females possess a most charming personality. Being emotional and vivacious by nature, they are fond of company and tend to select companions much older than themselves. However, they do not find it easy to make friends with their own sex. The changeable nature of the woman ruled by Cancer is often displayed in her relationships with friends and associates. There is an unfortunate tendency to discard old and pleasant friendships at a moment's notice without either warning or reason. This female is also fully capable of feeling and showing bitter enmity to those who were formerly close to her, and friendships sacrificed in this manner are rarely (if ever) renewed. However, for the most part, the Cancer woman is of a happy and talkative disposition, brilliant in conversation...one who delights in all types of amusements, public ceremonies and ostentatious display. Women governed by the Sign of Cancer are quite cheeful when the sun shines, but on cloudy or rainy days are apt to become sad and depressed, particularly so in the quiet aura of the country or if left alone at night.

The Cancer female needs an anchor in life...a man who will always be reliable in the emotional sense. She needs a shoulder to cry on and likes to share her laughter. Since this is almost certainly by nature the most feminine of the female Zodiac Signs, she prefers her partner to extremely masculine. It is important that this woman be treated in a loving manner...in short, "an iron fist within a velvet glove." Her opinions and views should be respected and it will be necessary to keep arguments to a minimum, especially over something trivial, or any mate could find himself coming off the worst. The Cancer female appears to be more self-confident that she actually is...constant reassurance will always be the order of the day. It is not unusual for females who fall under the jurisdiction of Cancer to marry more than once and they are usually destined to have many children.
