What is Cancer?

Cancer is the fourth sign of the zodiac, spanning from approximately June 21 to July 22. Represented by the Crab, Cancer is a Water sign, which emphasizes emotion, intuition, and depth.

People born under this sign are known for their deeply nurturing nature, strong protective instincts, and powerful emotional intelligence. They are the caregivers of the zodiac, often putting the needs of loved ones before their own.

Cancers are ruled by the Moon, the celestial body associated with moods, cycles, and the subconscious. This lunar influence makes them highly intuitive, sometimes psychic, and their emotions can ebb and flow like the tides.
