Astrology has always been an interesting topic. Whether you follow it religiously, or read your horoscope for fun. There is a definite entertaining aspect to it. Although, even reading your sign as entertainment, there are some attributes that seem more than coincidental.
Cancer, the fourth sign of the Zodiac, is an interesting one. It is represented by the Crab. As such, will snap (its claws) when cross or when defensive. Though the Crab is a brilliant survivor, what with its hard shell and soft centre. This lends a great deal of resilience to Cancerian.
It is considered that Cancer is a Cardinal sign. Or, if you're an older astrologer, a "moveable" sign. In that, the air changes, or moves, with the temperate season. Cancer oversees the change into Summer in the Northern hemisphere, and Winter in the Southern hemisphere. Thus, it is a hinge between seasons, so to speak. Thus, Cardinal signs are seen as dynamic and vibrant.
What is interesting is that Cancer is ruled by the Moon. Unlike the other signs being ruled by plants, the Earth's satellite is an interesting ruler. Large enough to affect the Earth with its gravity. In astrology, it represents the feeling nature of an individual. Mostly subconscious, it also delves into the mothering, or nurturing, instincts of a person.
With such an emphasis on emotion, Cancerians have potential to be good therapists and psychologists. That is providing they can keep a handle on theirs. To compliment this, they have fantastic memory recall. It is like they can take "photographic memory" to a whole new level. Also, any other job that requires an emotion connection would be compatible with Cancerians.
Having said that, Cancer covers the whole spectrum of emotion. Ranging from the most positive right down to the most negative. Although Cancerians have good instincts, they are also cautious. Aversive to risks, especially with things like money. Even to the point of being, say, a miser.
As a Water sign, it's no wonder Cancer has such a reliance on emotions. Ever-flowing, although Water in astrology denotes passivity, rather than coldness thereof. Also, Water signs seem to absorb and reflect on the situations around them. Ancient astrology sees Water, and moisture, as a release of emotions and even shared experiences.
Now, as a Cancerian looking for love, you may be wondering whom you may be compatible with. The sign gets along with both other Water signs and Air signs. It is seen that Water and Air provide balance, at least in relation to the realm of emotions, thoughts and the mind in general. Cancerians put importance in feeling needed and loved. Not that they are needy, but they like that security.
Family-orientated, instinctual and emotive. Cancerians maybe overly sensitive, but they still strive for harmony. They may well be moody, but it is only because they care.
