The Cancer Zodiac Sign
“The Cancer symbol is based on the Karkinos, a giant crab who harassed Heracles during his fight with the Hydra. People born beneath this sign move sideways like crabs, avoiding conflict as often as possible. They also pinch like crabs, clasping onto the things that make them happy.” – Daniella Urdinlaiz
“Cancer is a cardinal water sign. Represented by the crab, this crustacean seamlessly weaves between the sea and shore representing Cancer’s ability to exist in both emotional and material realms. Cancers are highly intuitive and their psychic abilities manifest in tangible spaces: For instance, Cancers can effortlessly pick up the energies in a room.” – Aliza Kelly Faragher
“On the surface you’re the picture of calm and strength, but underneath you tend to feel insecure and inadequate. You are positive that other people know what they’re doing while you’re just winging it. You also imagine the worst outcome to a scenario, never the best. You are a very emotional person; you’re constantly feeling. Those in your circle think of you as a den mother – the one who tries to fix other people’s problems and make sure everyone is happy. They like your concern for their well-being and cherish your wise counsel.” – Joanna Martine Woolfolk
Opposite sign and house: Capricorn
The private life, domesticity, the need for a home base, and nurturance (Cancer and the 4th house) versus the public life, career, reputation, and accountability (Capricorn and the tenth house). Attachments and love are ruled by Cancer and the 4th, while achievements and rewards/punishments are ruled by Capricorn. In some ways, this polarity deals with the balance between unconditional love and conditional love.
