Cancer Cancer: June 21 - July 20

Summer begins when the Sun enters Cancer, so it's only natural that Cancer people want to nurture and protect all living and growing things. In the proper setting, they're natural nest-builders who use their intuition to figure out what people need, then cater to them. Like their planet, the Moon, Cancerians are deeply mysterious and changeable, yet highly intriguing. They are drawn to people who need them, and they thrive on having people depend on them. That's when strings begin to be attached.

Cancerians cling to the past as a symbol of the security they need, and don't want to be forgotten. Because of this sentimentality, it's hard for them to let go of their "children" once they've outgrown Cancer's support system. You can try to stop these family-oriented people from fussing over you, but it's probably not worth the guilt trip they'll send you on if you hurt their feelings. When you look at it that way, getting smothered in fabulous food and tender loving care can't be all bad. To see how much influence Cancer really has, order a LifeQuest or an InnerChild report.

Cancer is a WATER sign
Water people are highly emotional. They interface with their world with their feelings first, and then engage their intellect. They have a "sixth sense" that helps them read into people's motivations almost instantly. At times, their dreaminess causes them to get lost in a fantasy world, and they can get disenchanted when they find out that in reality things won't be the way they way they'd like them to be. When their inner vision is used more productively, they are highly creative to the point of being visionary.
Cancer people are CARDINAL
They're full of creative ideas. Count on them to roll up their sleeves and dig in while everyone else is still standing around wringing their hands. What they need to develop is the staying power it takes to finish the things they start.
Zodiac Presence
The Crab. This sea creature contains its tender core within a hardened shell, and so it is with Cancer people. They tend to carry a little piece of home with them wherever they go, and they try to pretend to be strong on the outside, but on the inside, they are extremely sensitive.
Graphic Symbol
The two intertwined spirals of Cancer's glyph resemble the crab's claws, and they encircle that protected territory - home - upon which Cancer People focus so much of their energy.
Color
Cancerians like pale green and other pastel shades of watery colors like aqua and blue. These colors help Cancer people feel like they are around water, which they love. If they don't live near the sea, a lake or a river, pictures and other decorations that evoke watery places keep them feeling calm and secure.
Gems
The Pearl. This jewel from the sea harmonizes with the Cancerian caring nature and makes them feel (happily) right at home!
Fragrance
Cardamon is famous for its ability to rid worry-wart Cancerians of unwanted thoughts - a great cure for stressed-out stomachs.
Body Correspondence
Stomach and Breasts. Cancer's mentality is focused on sustenance, so these two regions are important to them. Many Cancerians complain of having delicate stomachs and special dietary needs, and when they worry too much (like they do all the time!), they get indigestion.
Number
Cancer's number, Six, has to do with taking responsibility and protecting one's interests.
Tarot Image
Depicted as a formidable carriage about to set off on a journey, the Chariot represents the potential power inherent in Cancer's soul. The charioteer holds the Holy Grail, and is protecting it as fiercely as Cancer people protect everything with which they're entrusted.
