Element : Water
Quality : Cardinal; Feminine; Negative
Ruling Planet : Moon
Declaration : ‘I feel’
Lessons to give in love : Tenderness, devotion and sensitivity. Quality of caring and nurturing.
Lessons to learn in love : Ability to let loose and let go and ability to express openly.
Personality : The Crab craves change, yet is scared of it. The stage of life that Cancer represents is perhaps the trickiest stage of human life – neither this nor that. No wonder, Cancer natives deal with a plenty of emotions, many of which are new to them, yet very real, very deep. With an eerie perception, they observe others, and thence develops their legendary instinct, their intuition. The troubled Cancer wavers and becomes confused, sometimes too clingy, at other times absolutely carefree. The vacillating moods of the Cancer natives wax and wane with their ruler Moon, making them prone to frequent swings and spells of melancholy and longing for the past. In a negative manifestation, Cancer natives may become too hung up, refusing to accept their flaws, while being cowardly, stingy, irritable and locked up. Thus, with a Cancer lover, it pays to stay informed in advance.
Love for the Cancer is : the emotional security net, a need that is above all, and that, ideally, should come from a familiar corner of their lives. Love is ‘home’ to a Cancer! A great need for love evokes deep sentimentality in the Cancer. Experiences of the world, the feelings of loss (as the adolescent realises that growing up process means losing some childhood treasures and beloved people/ surroundings) make him an emotionally munificent, sensual, albeit a hardened and withdrawn, being, whose world rests on the foundation of emotion and sentiment. Never make a mistake when it comes to pleasing a Cancer lover.
When in Love : Cancer loves with all his senses, all his might – completely and irrevocably. Cancer makes for a gentle, sensitive, caring and loving mate, who is sensible and cautious, and loves to create a secure home and hearth. But then, he also needs an equal amount, if not more, back from his partner. Prone to umpteen mood swings at all stages of his life, the Crab may go from chatty to reclusive in one moment, while a care-giver may transform shades miraculously to become a stingy, reckless shadow of himself in another. The partner of a Cancer should, ideally, be ready to go an extra mile to help the secretive Cancer open up. Crabs can’t handle hurts – their silent anger is legendary.
