Cancer
Sun-sign
by Julia Parker
Cancer Sun-sign: June 22 - July 22
Challenge a Cancerian and at once you will see his or her natural
self-defensive system come into play. The need to protect themselves and their
loved ones is an extremely basic instinct with people of this Sun-sign. Used
positively it is marvelously helpful, but sometimes it can result in their
becoming too easily annoyed, so that a slight "huffiness" is displayed
at the mildest opposition. The need to protect and look after others is second
nature, and indeed usually emerges at an early age; children of this sign are
good at looking after wild birds or any creature that has been injured, and it
is an excellent thing for them to do.
Cancerians are extremely tenacious and
hard working once they have decided on a course of action, whether it relates to
a life-long career or interest, or to some minor domestic task or project. The
tendency to hoard is very strong, so much so that it is very easy for Cancerians
to fill their homes with clutter, of which it is almost impossible to rid
themselves.
The instinct and intuition of the Cancerian is second to none, and is
something that should be developed and used to the full. When a Cancerian
"feels" that something is going to happen, or instinctively
"knows" what decision to make, the chances of their being right are
very high indeed. Cancerians are unfortunately terribly prone to worry, and it
is no good whatsoever to tell them to stop it. To counter this, they should
follow their instinct and learn to put no psychological barriers between
whatever is bothering them and this marvelous source of strength.
Cancers and Emotions
The Cancerian emotional level is very high, and needs constructive
channeling. Much emotion will be spent on lovers and children — no
generalization where Cancer is concerned. They also have an extremely powerful
imagination, and this too needs careful consideration and control. The Cancerian
with no creative or positive outlet for these resources will find that they tend
to become dominant. If any member of the family is late home, for instance,
imagination will insist that disaster has struck, and there will be irrational
worry — the children's train has plummeted over a cliff, the car has
crashed....
Cancerians should use their imaginations, but in a creative way,
perhaps by making beautiful things, telling bedtime stories to the children (and
maybe going on to write them down), or becoming involved in some aspect of
history or collecting — the past is very much alive for most Cancerians.
Career-wise, they do well in any of the caring professions. The hotel and
catering trades are good areas, as is the Navy. Teaching is also a rewarding
career for them, and there is many a Cancerian antique dealer or historian.
Cancers and the Family
Cancerians make marvelous parents, though they can become too easily upset
when the children leave home, and in general may be rather too clinging. They
do, however, provide a marvelous home life and background in which children
develop naturally and well, and those children will always feel that they and
their own offspring will be welcome at home.
Cancerians make marvelously sensuous lovers, but must try not to be
oversensitive. Their natural tendency to say rather harsh things can cause
friction, and they in their turn become very easily upset if criticized. But
their tenderness and warmth do a lot to stimulate good rapport between
themselves and their lovers.
Cancerian Physical
Challenge
The Cancerian body-area is the chest. This can be a vulnerable area, but
as most Cancerians are prone to worry this too can affect their health — mostly
causing digestive problems, which may in themselves be a signal of worry, before
the subject consciously realizes that this is creeping up on him or her.
