Cancer, the
fourth sign of the Zodiac are the natural
mothers of the world.
Cancer is the
natural ruler of the 4th house in Astrology, the
house of mothering and home. Cancers can have a
tough exterior like the crab, but deep down they
are tremendously emotional, nurturing creatures.
Air signs think and analyze, Earth signs are practical, Fire signs think in terms of relationships, but Water signs, exemplified by Cancer,
think not with logic--but with their feelings and emotions.
Ruled by the
Moon, Cancers are often moody creatures. They
may drift into a mood for no apparent
reason--what's really happened is a song played
on the radio that subconsciously reminded them
of something (the Moon rules the subconscious as
well). One minute they are the embodiment of
gentle understanding and kindness--the next?
Snappish and given to bouts of self-pity. When
offended, they tend to sulk.
Cancers love food and are known for trying to replace missing feelings of love and acceptance with food. Consequently, they commonly must watch their weight. Irregardless, they make superlative cooks and Chefs. Never turn down a free meal from a Cancer! You're in for a treat!
Cancers need to either mother or BE mothered.
They need love and approval more than just about
anyone else. In return, they give
undying loyalty. Cancers will hang onto a
relationship longer than just about any other
sign. Why? They need relationships more
than non-water signs can fathom.
Cancers are also
known as the hoarders of the zodiac. They'll
hoard food (one of their favorite things), and
remnants of the past long after, another less
sentimental person, would've thrown them away.
