Cancers have that natural maternal instinct that wants to take care of you. This sign is so empathetic and sensitive (and the sign most likely to be psychic) that it can feel what you feel. They are know for their expressive nature which can have you feeling what THEY feel, if they so choose to reveal what's in their head, which isn't often.

Now, if you aren't wanting to reveal all YOUR secret insides, then avoid Cancer. They have a gentle non-judgemental understanding that will get you to spill your guts. It's because you know it's always secure in the Cancer vault (which contains every word and experience since birth - they are known for their freakish memories) This sign represents security...AND seeks it. Security can come in the form of home, money or food for Cancers. They can never have enough money and they won't show it off - it's a defense to protect them from that unforeseen thing that MIGHT happen down the road! For this reason, no sign in the zodiac is better with money than Cancer.

Now don't be fooled by these mushy descriptors of Cancer.  If you're wondering who that witty person is laughing uncontrolably, it might be a Cancer. The Cancer folks are known for their sense of humor but it might catch you off guard as it comes to the surface of their usual gentle, unassuming demeanor.

Despite all the emotions, Cancer is not a weak sign....it's a cardinal sign which means these people are self-starters. Don't mistake that for direct, if you think of how a crab moves...it scuttles sideways around issues and never directly towards the thing it wants. Then, out of nowhere it grabs on with it's claws with a tenacious grip that won't let go.

Don't be confused by the Cancer man and his changeable moods, he'll have you laughing til your belly aches one minute then calling him a grumpy old man the next.

See above for the description of the crab (scuttling sideways with that hard shell), and then assemble your tactics for pursuing the Cancer woman.
