Cancer's Secret Desire: To feel safe (emotionally, spiritually, romantically and financially)

Elemental Quality
Cancer is the cardinal sign of the zodiac. It can be liken to a safe harbor in which boats can take shelter from the dangers on the sea of life. Water finds its own level -- it settles. The metaphorical harbor is the way Cancer provides a safe and organized place for human activity, setting each ship in its allotted place.

Spiritual Goal
To learn how to take a balanced view of things.

Secret Cancer
Inside anyone who has strong Cancerian influences is a person who was very shy when young and who still tends to use a hard outer shell in defense against what are perceived as hurts from other people. The most vulnerable part of the Cancerian personality is an inner fear of nameless dangers that often reduce a wonderful dream to a pessimistic worry. The fear is becoming lost in the dark of outer space. This indefinable fear of insecurity is often what drives the typical Cancerian personality to invest much time and effort in activities which will enhance a feeling of security and self-preservation.

Ruling Planet and Its Effect
The Moon rules the zodiac sign of Cancer, so anyone whose birthchart has a strong Cancerian influence will absorb and accurately reflect every emotion that is experienced. In astrology, the Moon's cycle of waxing and waning is a metaphor for the cycle of changing moods of the Cancerian personality, who can experience periods of wondrous elation and of crabby depression. The Moon is also associated with oddities and, when in the mood, Cancerian humor can be quite crazy -- almost lunatic. Cancerian humor provides some of the best comedy in the world of entertainment, because it is always based on an accurate observation of human nature.

Typical Occupations
Occupations that attract typical Cancerians are the food industry, such as baking, candy making, catering, nutrition, hotel or domestic work; animal breeding; horticulture; gardening's; anything connected with boats, water, ponds, rivers, fountains, pools, fishing; any kind of trading; counseling; psychotherapy; social work; nursing; obstetrics; political work connected with any of these.

Compatibility Match
CANCER goes with Scorpio, Pisces, Taurus and Virgo

Cancer and Love
For a Cancerian, love thrives when there is a combination of constant affection with a healthy bank balance and substantial assets. A Cancerian in love will have many of the characteristics listed below.

Behavior when in Love the typical Cancerian:
* will rarely make the first move
* fears he or she will be rejected
* will retreat, deeply hurt, at the first sign of ridicule or criticism
* will respond to honest warmth and affection
* can become tenaciously attached to the loved one
* is a romantic at heart
* will put the loved one first in all things

Expectations of the typical Cancerian expects:
* to be loved forever
* to have his or her cooking appreciated
* to work hard for money and security
* the family to come first in all things
* to be needed as a tower of strength and refuse
* unshakable loyalty and devotion

Cancer and Partner
The person who contemplates becoming the marriage or business partner of a typical Cancerian must realize that the Cancer will want to be the dominant partner and will expect total devotion. Given this, the person who partners Cancer can expect consideration, prosperity, and a strong sense of belonging to family or company. The contented Cancerian will never let the partner down.

Cancer and Friends
In general, Cancer likes friends who will support his or her emotional and financial needs when necessary -- and Cancer will reciprocate.

Positive Factors
Friends are, in many ways, regarded as family possessions themselves and are treated as such, with loving care, protective hospitality, sensitive consideration, and great tenderness. Although some friends may come and go, friends from younger days are the most precious.

Negative Factors
When he or she is hurt by a friend, the Cancerian anger may last for a long time and the friend may be abandoned. However, if the friend is an old friend, then the emotional attachment will finally lead to reconciliation. Cancerians do tend to set their own standards by the progress their friends are making.

Cancer Likes
* anyone who loves his or her mother
* sentimental and family keepsakes
* gourmet food
* shopping trips
* history, especially family genealogy
* any demonstration of affection such as flowers
* a birthday card on the right date
* the company of other people
* a calm working atmosphere
* physical contact

Cancer Dislikes
* any tiny criticism of the home
* having to handle a crisis
* pressure to take part in conversation
* anyone who refuses their cooking
* people who forget names and dates (Cancerians have excellent memories themselves)

I hope that gives you some insight to Cancer : )

Answer 2

Cancerians are ruled by the moon. Their lucky color is white and silver. Their gem is the moonstone and some people say also the pearl.

Most people will tell you that a cancerian is a sensitive soul, very reflective of moods around them. Put a Cancer around sad people and she will soak up their atmosphere. Fiercely connected and protective about her family, a cancer however will always having the feeling that she is somewhat misunderstood, and that no one "truly" understand her. That is because a cancer is often so deep, it is difficult to.

Cancerians deeply fear rejection, and will dally about to make the first move. They can be poetic and philosophical. However, most people do not say that Cancerians are known for a loony sense of humor as well. Mel Brooks, Bill Cossby, Cheech, Redd Skelton etc are all Cancerians.

Cancerians are famous cooks. But key to remember before every one dismisses Cancerians as sissies, is that it is a cardinal sign- or a sign of rulership. Cancerians in their own way will lead.

Some famous cancerians: Ernest Hemmingway, Tom Hanks, Pamela Anderson, Meryl Streep, Carlos Santana, Courney Love, Ross Perot, Nelson D Rockefeller, Cecil Rhodes, Rembrandt

Hi Fellow Cancer.
We are sensitive people who like the crab crawl in a shell when we get hurt. It takes us awhile to trust again if we are hurt badly.
We are nurturing to family friends and lovers. We are homebody's and are happy as long as our home environment is working for us. We are loyal to a fault and highly intuitive.
Our best love matches are Pisces.

Answer 4

A few things about cancarians are very common. One thing is that the Cancarian can be quite sensitive and protective about him/herself. They can be shy often and need external help to fit into their environment, either through a friend or relative. One thing they should be careful of is who they become friends with. Surprisingly, Leos can give them strength and Geminis can give them some balance.
