: The Emotional but Loyal Birth Sign

If you were born from June 21 to July 22, you are most likely familiar with just how emotionally you react to everything. One day your Cancer horoscope may speak of being helpful, solicitous, and offering yourself to your friends. The next day, you become snappish and cranky and just wish to be left a lone. Your moods change like the tides and there is a good reason for that. You are under the element of water so it’s little wonder that you are so changeable.

That element of water also explains your dominant phrase of “I Feel.” You are receptive, sympathetic, sensitive, kind, imaginative, and, of course, highly emotional. You also have an active, shrewd, and very intuitive mind. This keeps you processing things all the time, which is reflected in the typical Cancerian horoscope reading.

The ruling planet of a Cancer is the Moon, which also adds to the emotional aspects of this sign. During the infamous balcony scene from William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, Juliet says to Romeo “O swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon that monthly changes in her circled orb.” Shakespeare had it right. The moon is the Earth’s one satellite that waxes and wanes along with having a powerful magnetic pull. This same Moon is in charge of emotions and intuition.

Cancer is the sign of home and family life, and you most likely prefer close personal relationships. You are happiest when you are surrounded by things that are familiar and by loved ones. It is these loved ones who come to truly appreciate just how loyal you are - loyalty being one of the most common traits seen in a Cancer horoscope. However, you do have somewhat of a blind spot when it comes to hearing or seeing anything negative about someone you love. Your sentimentality comes out just by hearing a song on the radio, or smelling a familiar scent, and you have the ability to pick up on the feelings of others quite accurately.

The Cancer horoscope is usually accompanied by your symbol, the Crab, which shows that you have a hard exterior but underneath you are just an old softie. At the first sign of danger, you scurry back inside your shell as you have a lot of trouble trusting people. The pictograph is that of the Crab’s claws. Symbolically, it shows two circles of the Sun connected to two crescent Moons. These moons stand for Cancer’s desire to save memories and possessions. The circles tied to the moons show the force and energy that is expressed through emotions and imagination.

Cancers tend to have digestive problems due to stress and tension. They also love to eat which makes them have to fight gaining weight in their later years. Your lucky day is Monday and lucky numbers are 3 and 7. Sea green and silver are the shimmering colors of the sea and the moon, and also are your special colors as a Cancer. Get a pearl and wear it as that is your magical birthstone.

Beware of accidents in your home as you are quite susceptible to them. Your Cancerian horoscope reading will help you avoid these. You are also prone to becoming a victim of theft so make sure your home and car are locked up tight.
