Cancer: User Guide

The peculiarity of the sign of Cancer is its imagination. They are not only
creative, but also dreamers who often have their head in the clouds. They
are visionaries who often project themselves into the future by letting their
imagination run free. Cancer people are also nostalgic and love to dive back
into their past and remember childhood memories.

Cancer care very much about their own roots. They’re not the kind of people
who deny their own origins, because family has a prominent place in their
life. Cancer natives show a special dedication to children and procreation.
Case in point, in Ancient Egypt, Cancer was associated with the Goddess
Isis, protector of children.

On a romantic side, Cancer are very sensitive and emotional. They will try
to camouflage this vulnerability with modesty and shyness. Although they
are not very talkative, Cancer people cannot bear loneliness. They feel the
constant need to interact with the world in order to feel safe.

3
Too focused in the past and future, Cancer tend to forget about the present.
That is why their loved ones believe they have lost touch with reality.
They can even neglect, or even run away from, their responsibilities and
obligations. Their being stubborn and obstinate can sometimes make them
capricious and whimsical.

Cancer And The World Around Them

Cancer people radiate with a kind of joie de vivre. They are known for
sharing this joy and good humor with the people around them. Cancer know
how to be funny, sometimes even with a «childish» side. He loves to relax the
atmosphere and make friendly exchanges lively.

The native of Cancer is naturally hospitable. It is someone you can count

on, especially in the most difficult times. Cancer are very understanding
people. They do not hesitate to help those in need. They also know how to
comfort and give good advice in moments of distress.

However, Cancer are rather demanding when it comes to friendship. For

them, friendly relationships with others should primarily be based on
trust, respect and mutual loyalty. They have a very hard time with lies and
hypocrisy.

In the workplace, Cancer stand out from their colleagues by their ability
to listen. They are very careful people taking any little detail into account.
Cancer are good colleagues who always want to create a warm and friendly
atmosphere in the office.

They are full of brilliant ideas and do not hesitate to offer them to others.
Their analytical skills, ambition and strong determination command
respect from their colleagues. These are the main qualities that make them
an essential element in the field in which they practice.

They also are hard workers who want to succeed in everything they
undertake. They are good leaders who know how to take the initiative
when the situation demands it. A Cancer knows how to harness team spirit.
They are aware that even if they do very well alone, working as a team can

4
increase the chances of success.

Family is extremely important for Cancer people. Their attachment can

be seen through a desire to help, but especially to protect each and every
family member. This form of protection involves mainly moral, but also
material support.

Family also implies children! Cancer people are personally sensitive to

anything related to fertilization and birth. Cancer are fascinated by this kind
of human conception. Moreover, in the education of their own children,
Cancer can demonstrate a huge paternal or maternal instinct.

If Cancer Were…
A VEGETABLE
If Cancer were a vegetable, they would probably be a Birch tree. Like the
character of Cancer, the small leaves of this tree are a perfect representation
for smoothness and stability. Birch is also known for its protective properties.
Case in point, it is frequently used in order to produce certain protective
objects including matches.

Iris may also be associated with the sign of Cancer. This plant symbolizes
trust, wisdom and courage. These are qualities that are well reflected in the
natives of Cancer. As for the Chamomile and Passionflower, they are definitely
related to Cancer, for these softening and soothing properties.

AN ANIMAL
If Cancer were an animal, they would obviously be an aquatic animal. Aquatic
animals are generally associated with creation, inventiveness and intuition.
Cancer might be a Swan. This animal symbolizes elegance and nobility. Like
people born under the sign of Cancer, the Swan also represents valor and
courage.

But Cancer may also be re presented by a cat. Many similarities can be

found between cat and Cancer. The cat symbolizes balance and vigilance,
which paradoxically echoes the prudence and quest for stability of Cancer
people. Just like Cancer, cat represent patience, courage and freedom.

5
A MINERAL
If Cancer were a mineral, they would surely be a Crystal. This very precious
mineral symbolizes purity and clairvoyance. The transparency of the Crystal
allows it to be both visible and invisible. This ambivalence represents the
character of Cancer to be both shy and open to the world.

Cancer can also be associated with the pearl. The pearl is a mineral
symbolizing wealth and perfection, but above all femininity. The pearl
has always played a very important role in the life of humankind. In some
cultures and civilizations, it was best known for its medicinal, gynecological
and funereal properties.

What Jobs For Cancer?

Cancer is a water sign, so it will be particularly drawn to occupations related
to aquatic life. They are therefore likely to become sailors or fishermen/
women. Of a very welcoming and hospitable nature, they can make a career
in the field of restaurants, hotels or real estate.

People born under the sign of Cancer like to take care of other people.
That’s why natives are generally drawn to medicine and professions related
to social and humanitarian values. They are fascinated by research and
history. Curiosity among Cancer natives will guide them towards a career as
historians, archaeologists, or antiquarians.

Cancer And Compatibility With Other Signs

Although Cancer and Aries do not see life in the same way, they can certainly
build a solid friendship. Aries is a person overflowing with energy, unlike
Cancer who is more serene and prefers to stay in a kind of comfort zone.
Aries have the ability to share their dynamism with Cancer, without rushing
them, so that they can be a little more open to the world around them.

Cancer and Taurus share the same interests, especially concerning a

taste for nostalgia. They are more likely to get along than with other signs.
Whether on a friendly or professional level, Cancer and Taurus are loyal

6
partners who often manage to implement and undertake joint projects.

Cancer has a harder time maintaining a good relationship with Gemini.

The instability of Gemini people is not at all compatible with the tranquility
and balance the Cancer wants to create. Relationships between Cancer
and Gemini are also excessively based on superficial matters. This kind of
relationship will have difficulties to flourish in the long term.

Between Cancers, friendly and professional relationships are more

harmonious, because they are made to get along, each being particularly
sympathetic to the needs of the other. A collaboration between Cancers
based on trust and mutual respect is sure to lead to success and the
realization of joint projects.

The relationship between Cancer and Leo is particularly complex. Cancer

is governed by the Moon while the Leo is governed by the Sun. These are 2
completely opposite signs. This difference is reflected mainly in the field of
work. They will find it difficult to agree on certain points and to try and find
common ground.

The relationship between Cancer and Virgo is less passionate. In fact, they
have almost no common points and have totally different visions of life.
This is why both signs are unlikely to develop a lasting relationship. But no
conflict is likely because each will tend to avoid the other.

Cancer is particularly fond of Libra. People born under the sign of Libra are
naturally pleasant in life and extremely sympathetic. These two signs can
expect to share many good times. On a professional level, they will make
very good teammates motivated by a common goal.

Relations between Cancers and Scorpios are a rough ride. Even though
they are both Water signs, Cancers and Scorpios cannot agree on anything.
The argument-making up-argument cycle is likely to be repetitive. This kind
of relationship ends up being annoying after a while.

The Cancer-Sagittarius relationship is emotionally rewarding. Whenever

these two signs are together, a certain joie de vivre and a good atmosphere
emerge. This harmony ends up creating a special connection between

7
them over time. However, on a professional level, everyone knows how to
be serious. They are perfectly aware that when they are at work, common
interests take precedence over friendship.

Cancer get along perfectly with Capricorn and share common interests
with them. The main problem between them is a lack of communication.
This is something that needs to be improved to ensure a lasting friendly
relationship. Even if disagreements arise, the key is for everyone to be
understanding.

Professionally, Aquarius is the ideal partner for Cancer. Very focused on

the future, Aquarius will feel happy to discuss with the natives of Cancer.
However, they do not always agree on all points. With a bit of tolerance and
understanding, Cancer and Aquarius can accomplish great things together.

Cancers and Pisces, both Water signs, are in perfect osmosis. Each knows
how to listen to the other and knows how to be understanding. These are the
main conditions that can guarantee a balanced, lasting relationship. The
strength of these two signs is mainly based on their ability to communicate
and be understood.

 CANCER PERSONALITY

Cancer In A Male Natal Chart

The man Cancer is renowned for his wisdom. He is a well-educated, polite,
courteous and respectful man. He knows how to make the right decisions
and fully assumes his responsibilities and obligations. He tends to lecture
his loved ones though, especially his family. If it does so, it is because he
wants to fill the protector role towards his entourage.

He is a man who has the particularity of being very understanding. Indeed,

he is endowed with a great sense of how to listen. That’s why his loved ones
are used to turn to him in times of trouble. He knows how to comfort and
raise the morale of people and above all does not hesitate to help when
needed.

A Cancer man is a very nostalgic person. He feels the constant need to

recall his childhood and adolescence memories. He assumes that it is
imperative to know where we come from and be aware of everything we
have been through before knowing where we are going. This detour in the
past allows him to regain his confidence and get himself together especially
in some difficult times.

He is also seen as a very discreet man, sometimes distant even. People say
he’s shy. But in reality, it is a false shyness that mainly hides some distrust
towards other people. Indeed, it is hard for him to open up to people
because very few people receive his trust. The restraint and caution he has
shown are mainly the result of his need to protect his intimacy.

Behind this cold and distant façade also hides a hypersensitive man. Cancer
men are literally tough men with a tender heart. They are emotionally fragile

9
men who need to be reassured. Case in point, it is mainly this sense of
emotional comfort he will try to look for in a relationship.

A Cancer man is rather difficult to pin down. Although he is not very open
with people, he feels the need to interact with the outside world. This is a
man who cannot stand loneliness, because he quickly feels abandoned,
forgotten, and rejected. Leaving him alone for a while could make him
anxious, or even hysterical.

But Cancer men don’t just have positive qualities. They are also extremely
demanding men. Even if they try to avoid conflicting relationships as much
as they can, this does not prevent them from throwing temper tantrums
when something does not suit them. This kind of behavior sometimes leads
them to speak in a virulent or offensive way.

Cancer In A Female Natal Chart

Cancer women have great femininity. This can be reflected by their dress
code, the way they express themselves, gestures or simply behavior. This
is a woman confident about her sensuality and who can show her femme
fatale side without complex.

That said, even if eyes are drawn to her, she keeps a kind of simplicity. Never
yielding to any excess, she knows how to maintain balance and stability in
her life. On an emotional side, Cancer women are more discreet. They are
rather reserved and want to preserve their privacy. They are particularly
cautious in their choices and decisions.

She has a close connection to family feelings. Indeed, a Cancer woman finds
happiness with members of her own family, whom she trusts completely.
Her family guarantees her a certain form of security that allows her to
flourish and unveil her full personality. She is not only a loving wife, but also
a devoted mother who wants to give her best to make her children happy.

A Cancer is an open-minded woman. That’s why she usually has a lot of

friends and acquaintances. Meeting new people allow her to improve
herself both culturally and intellectually. She doesn’t like to judge others,

10
because she is naturally tolerant and understanding.

This is a woman who knows how to be attentive and generous to her loved
ones, but especially to her family. For her, all relationships must be based
on mutual exchange and especially on sharing. She takes a liking to give
things away without necessarily waiting for something in return. What
drives her is above all the feeling of having pleased her loved ones by giving
the best of herself.

A Cancer woman is also a woman with overflowing imagination. She tends

to focus all her fantasy side into creation. She also has a penchant for
artistic creation. Despite her dreamy side, she is not the kind of woman
to lose focus or lose touch with reality. A Cancer woman is a serious and
orderly woman, with a keen sense of organization.

But her need to put everything in order and organize everything leads
her to be considered as too perfectionist. The main flaw of the Cancer
woman is her naïve side. She is easily influenced because it is ready to
believe anything that she is told. She can also be fickle and temperamental
sometimes when she does not get what she wants.

 WHAT KIND OF LOVER IS CANCER?

Cancer Men In Love

Cancer men have their own conception of seduction. Far from being
womanizers, Cancer are rather a discrete seducers. In fact, he they would
rather take some time to know and to tame a potential partner. Moreover, they
are the kind of admiring men who are easily impressed by small tokens of love.

What Cancer are looking for, especially in a couple, is someone faithful.

Cancer is the most faithful sign of the zodiac. He does not think about a
possible breakup, especially after marriage. According to him, respect and
mutual trust are the only conditions that guarantee balance and stability
in a couple.

A love relationship between a Cancer man and the Fire signs may turn to
drama. Aries women are too eager for his tastes. For him, lasting relationships
in love must be built over time. The opposition that exists between him
and a Leo will prevent him from maintaining a stable relationship in love.
Sagittarius tend to be too independent or too unpredictable for Cancer men.

With Earth signs, Cancer is more likely to find true love. With a Taurus
woman, he feels particularly reassured. They share the same goals, allowing
them to maintain balance and stability in their couple. A Virgo woman on the
other hand will be more complementary to the character of a Cancer man. A
relationship Cancer and Capricorn is also more harmonious.

Cancer men and Air signs are not really made to develop relationships.
Indeed, the fleeting character of Gemini women does not suit them at all.
It is the same for Libra women who, according to them, have manipulative
tendencies. Aquarius women are too bold to be a match for a shy Cancer.

12
Finally between Water signs, relationships are made to last. Cancer men
and women are made to understand one another, because they share
almost the same living doctrines. Cancer men are mostly drawn to the
sensitivity and vulnerability of the Pisces women. He is particularly fond of
the sensuality of Scorpio women.

Cancer Women In Love

Cancer women have a simple vision of love. They are romantics who have
a hard time to admit it. Indeed, even if they are particularly sweet and
sentimental, they are not the kind of women to maintain an inflamed and
passionate relationship with their companion. What they are looking for is a
stable and balanced relationship based on trust and respect.

For them, the ideal partner is a kind and caring man, able to meet their needs
and sometimes their whims. The physical presence of their companion is of
paramount importance, because these women need affection and warmth to
feel loved. That is why it will be difficult to imagine maintaining a long distance
relationship. They mainly want a man who can understand and share the
same values as they do.

Fire signs will have a hard time meeting the expectations of Cancer women.
Aries men who are more instinctive and spontaneous won’t necessarily feel
comfortable alongside a more down to earth Cancer woman. Sagittarius men
will have to work on their understanding to consider a stable relationship with
them. On the other hand, a Leo man, more caring, will have a greater chance
to woo the heart of a Cancer woman.

A Cancer woman will feel more reassured in the arms of the Earth signs.
Indeed, she might consider a lasting relationship with a Taurus man who
shares the same interests and the same visions as her. She can also
count on a Virgo man who can show seriousness and maturity in their love
relationship. Even if they do not have much in common, a Cancer woman will
appreciate a Capricorn for their understanding side.

Cancer women and Air signs have vastly different conceptions of the
relationship. A Cancer woman will soon tire of a Gemini man who relies too

13
much on the surface on the sentimental side. The many disagreements
between a Cancer woman and a Libra man risk ending in a possible breakup,
barring any understanding. The more independent Aquarius man will find it
difficult to feel like himself alongside the more demanding Cancer woman.

With Water signs, love relationships are much more stable. Cancer men and
women are more likely to maintain a long-term relationship since they share
not only the same taste, but also the same objectives. A Cancer woman can
feel reassured alongside a Scorpio man who knows how to be protective.
A tender and caring Pisces man, meanwhile, will know how to get a Cancer
woman to like him.
