The water element predominates for those born under the Cancer zodiac sign. Crab, the zodiac symbol for Cancer, is a marine crustacean that can move freely between the water and land, symbolising the sign’s capacity to live in both the abstract and the concrete. When a Cancer enters a room, they can easily sense the vibes and get a sense of the people and the atmosphere. In addition to being fiercely protective of themselves, these crabs have a heightened awareness of their surroundings. Cancers, like their zodiacal totem, have thick, protective skins. They may come off as aloof or icy at first. However, Cancers gradually display their sensitivity, kindness, and even supernatural talents. Don’t be alarmed if it takes some time before you feel like you really know them.
The moon, which symbolises security, introspection, and nurturing qualities, is Cancer’s planetary ruler. As a result, Cancers have a strong affinity for the home. They take great pleasure in designing and caring for intimate havens of peace and quiet where they may go to recharge their spirits. Cancers are devoted to their loved ones and often take on caregiving responsibilities as soon as they are able. Crabs, however, need to exercise caution: Cancers run the danger of confusing caring, nurturing, and possessive behaviour when they engage emotionally in another person.
Cancers’ devotion, dedication, and emotional depth make them attractive friends and partners. These crustaceans have a knack for hosting, and they love to feed their guests hearty food and a steady supply of drinks. (Since the stomach is ruled by cancer, a home-cooked dinner is the very best thing for these crabs.) Cancer’s strong sense of domesticity might be a source of contention if you don’t share that priority. These heavenly crabs may travel at an angle to avoid eye contact and any confrontation, but they nevertheless pack a powerful pinch. If you can get a Cancer to open up about their problems without making them feel intimidated, you will earn their confidence for the long haul.
