The Cancer Zodiac
Emotional, Intuitive, and Profoundly Nurturing
Cancer The Crab
The Cardinal Water Sign
Cancer is the fourth sign of the zodiac, ruled by the ever-changing Moon. This celestial influence makes Cancerians deeply emotional, intuitive, and empathetic. They are the nurturers of the zodiac, possessing a strong protective instinct over their loved ones and home. Like their symbol, the Crab, they may present a hard exterior shell for self-protection, but inside, they are soft, sensitive, and caring. Their strength lies in their emotional depth and unwavering loyalty.
