Cancer people are very patient, understanding and extremely sensitive to emotions. They experience all emotions deeply whether it is love, joy, sorrow, compassion or horror and hide these feelings behind their shell. These introspective and mature people are often, consciously and subconsciously, exploring the meaning of life. Forgiving is easy but forgetting is not. Cancerians will have their compassionate and giving natures taken advantage of by unscrupulous people, who often turn out to be other Cancerians. Family, friends and peaceful surroundings is very important to this nurturing Zodiac sign. Cancerians like to nest and have strong nesting qualities. Even when they travel, they take their “home” with them. No showplace for them, it’s a place filled with warmth, comfort and mysterious items. Due to their keen imaginations and empathetic natures, Cancerians are able to identify with others. They can be prone to fantasy and romance but can become aggressive when fighting for something or someone in which they believe. Cancerians expect others to understand and be sensitive to their moods and prefer not to make demands. Their empathetic natures can over power their own reason and logic. If a Cancerian is not able to enjoy their satisfying daily experiences and routines, they can become irritable, moody and nervous. If their birthday falls between June 19 and June 24, Gemini-Cancer Cusp people are inspired, self-effacing for the higher good, and devoted to family or the public. They have a magic, magnetic personality and make for good romantics. They are profound, thoughtful and have an inner glow. The airy, light, energetic Gemini complements the feeling, sensitive Cancer, which produces an ethereal grace and charm. These Cancerians can found inspiration and ecstasy in ordinary activities. They need to be careful and not let their emotions rule their life. Those born between June 25 and July 2 have an intuitive understanding of the needs and motivations of others. They are dreamers who put their ideas into action and often are very successful in business. They make good salespeople, as they understand human nature and can manipulate a situation to their advantage (though they will not take advantage of someone). These Cancerians enjoy their home and have a strong nesting quality, which often leads them for select, design, build and decorate their homes. It is their top priority and like the Crab, they often bring their comforts of home with them. They need to learn to express themselves in constructive ways and not repress themselves until they have a fiery outburst. Cancerians with a birthday falling between July 3 and July 10 can appear quite normal on the outside but often have an unusual, if somewhat peculiar, inner life which is hidden behind their shell. If not grounded, their fantasy life can take over. On the positive side, these introspective people can be sensitive to their spirituality and psychic qualities, which to those who do not understand, can make them appear strange. These Cancerians have a love of discussing and observing human behavior, nature and art. Humor is the way they most often express themselves. Because it “takes one to know one” Cancerians can pinpoint the foibles and peculiarities of others. They are very charismatic, sometimes too sensitive and are ready to express what others may be thinking but are not ready to express. They need to learn to use their fantasy and imagination productively. Those born between July 11 and July 18 have a strong, dominant personality. They are able to convince others of their worth and can sell themselves as well. Due to their charismatic nature, they can get others to do their bidding. They have a drive and determination that gets things done for the common good. They are skillful debaters whose charm and magnetism could smother the ideas and ambitions of others if not used properly. If used positively, these Cancerians are good speakers and representatives of causes for the highest good of all. The Element of Cancer is Water.

They need space to flow, to channel their energy. They have an independent, free-flowing spirit even though others may well depend on them.
