Answer 1

June 21 - July 20

Cancer - "the Crab" (Karkinos in Greek, Cancer in Latin).

Cancer is very patient. Cancer feels all moods to the fullest, joy, sorrow, compassion, horror and sadness. Family is important to Cancer. Cancer will always forgive, but has a good memory.

Cancer can love long and strong. Cancer is a giver and can be taken advantage of by those who are takers.

Answer 2

CANCER

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.

Answer 3

Cancers are kind and generous. They will "mother" their best friend. That is- in a good way. They will go with friend to the doctor, remind them of their appts, run errands for/with friend, help clean friends home, treating them just like family.
Also, very homie type, loving movies, dinners, yet they do love to get out. They need a best friend who provides good support if they are right or wrong, because cancers can get sensitive. An excellent best friend is a Scorpio who will give loyalty and balance.

Answer 4

I'm a cancer, and I love being a cancer. I would explain it all, but there is no way I could type it all out. However I have a link that does explain it.

I am true cancer and proud of it. That link describes me to a tee. I was totally freaked out when I first read the profile, it was too true. Check it out.

Answer 5

Cancer is the mother sign, you tend to take care of everyone around you.... Protective, loyal, emotional, loving.

Answer 6

When she is in love, she will act both ways. First, shy, polite and trembling to be near you. Second, she will attach to you like glue and trying to be with you all the time. She will try to go home with you after work, or have every lunch with you. It is O.K. if you like her too, but if is is not the case, you will feel very uncomfortable. She hates to be talked about or gossiped by someone else. If she knows she will be very hurt.

In nature she is a shy type, except she when has been influenced by some other Zodiac. She is not a brave or daring type, so if you like her then you better be the one who start first. She will not accept her true feelings, so if you like here you better tell her first. She is like a musical note always change in tunes, so one minute she can be funny and cheerful, and one minute she can be sad and depressed. Other people may think of her as "Over-acting", or "Over-reacting".When she is depressed, she will go out and look for things to make it up.

She has a constant fear for many things. She fears of not being smart enough, not pretty enough. Even if she is not fat, she will not be satisfied.Assuring her of her looks would help, because she can change her mood 4 times a day. She is not stingy, but you will not surprise if you see she collecting old or broken junks. She feels that everything are useful to her. She will find a way to re-use it again some day.

She is not a jealous type, but possessive. The best part about her is that she will sacrifice everything for her loved one with no limit. Don't leave her in times of troubles for she will never forget it. She is not a weak type, even she looks like one. For example if you argue with her, she might cry her heart out. Once you left, she will wipe her tears and start clean up her apartment normally.

She hates to be criticized, she is deeply wounded by ridicule, and she just can't stand being rejected. One, two, three. They're basics. Seldom openly aggressive, the typical Cancerian hesitates. You'll have to make the first move. If she moves anywhere at all, it will be backwards or side­ways. With her basically shy nature and fear that she won't be accepted, she echoes .the male of the Sun sign. I know of a Cancer woman and a Cancer man who, for seven hours, sat close to each other one night in her apart­ment, under the pretense of looking at magazines. While their pulses pounded silently, they went through a stack of back issues, the morning and evening papers, and worked a few crossword puzzles. Neither crab, you see, wanted to make the first move.

The fears of your lunar lovely can really hang you up, along with her. She's afraid she isn't pretty enough, she isn't smart enough, she isn't young enough or she isn't old enough. It makes no difference if she has a figure like Venus de Milo, a face like Helen of Troy and a mind like Aristotle: she'll still feel inadequate. Assure her that she's young, she's lovely, she's engaged, and she has you. About twenty times a day should begin to make a dent. Her moods will change on the average of four times a month, with each quarter Moon plus minor fluctuations twice a day- reflecting the tides. She's sort of predictable in an un­predictable kind of way. It may make her fascinating and mysterious, but so doggone aggravating youll feel like whacking her. During one of her blue spells, she may even be afraid she's not a good cook, which is utterly ridiculous, because the typical Cancerian woman can make a French chef look like the mess sergeant you had at boot camp. This woman isn't an automatic can opener or a frozen food fan. She would rather shell her own peas and bake her own biscuits. Her casseroles are sensational, her potatoes are fluffy, her vegetables are crisp and crunchy, and she tops it all off with heavenly strawberry jam. Cancer women are very friendly with their ovens. The kitchen will be her favorite room by far (next to the nursery). She'll fuss over you like a mother hen, and you'll probably love it.

She may not overwhelm your friends with her vivacity and sparkling flattery, but she won't fail to impress you with her charm. July women prefer to save their deepest emotions for people closest to them. After you've dated other girls and compared them to her, you may go running right back to your female crab, and beg her to hang on again. Tightly.

The trickiest aspect in handling her is to keep her from crawling into the always handy, tough Cancerian shell. Her feelings are so sensitive and tender, the slightest un­intentional remark can wound her harshly. It's hard to know when she'll suddenly become vulnerable to hidden meanings. You could waltz in some night and say, "Your hair looks gorgeous," and she'll get a tear in her eye. Why? Because you insinuated her hair looked frightful the last time you saw her. Cancer women can be quite touchy. They cry a lot. Always have a fresh handkerchief ready.

Females born under the sign of the crab aren't neces­sarily stingy, but they have this little habit of saving things. You could say it's a downright compulsion. She'll seldom throw away pieces of string, buttons, jars, cans, husbands, or old dress patterns. Who are you to say she won't find a purpose for those torn theater stubs, faded love letters and used tea bags? Someday in the unpredictable future, she may need the burned-out fuses she keeps in the drawer with those broken Christmas ornaments. Don't ask her how she's going to find a use for two hundred stockings and gloves, long divorced from their mates. She will, she will! This isn't the girl to take kindly to someone who burns a hole in the heirloom bedspread her great-aunt Matilda quilted. Everything has a sentimental value, in­cluding canceled checks from 1952 and her old Girl Scout badges. She treasures the things she owns and guards them jealously. That, of course, includes you. She's not so much jealous as possessive. There's a shade of difference.

Cancers are very kind and considerate. I know that much. :)

Answer 8

You don't know things, you always ask about yourself, but at least you know when your birthday is.
