The Cancerian Personality
Cancerian are gentle, sensitive kind of people who can really keep their families and friends on the go with their ever-changing "on top of the world one minute and down in the dumps the next" mood. The reason for their capriciousness is the moon, their ruler. La Luna being female gives Cancerians appropriately feminine virtues. They touchingly look after the family and cultivate any friendships they may have. The Cancerian will lovingly cook for loved ones and is a real homemaker. They attach a great deal of importance to a lovely home and cosy family life. Cancerians always want to feel safe and at home. Their desire for assurance and security is also seen in their choice of work. A familiar atmosphere is paramount to Cancerians in this area, too. When they are feeling good, they won't change jobs again that easily. Financial carrots never lure Cancerians; feelings of protection and familiarity are much more important for them. They expect the same dedication and gentleness they show their fellow earth dwellers. And that's the reason why Cancerians are always disappointed. Others often perceive the Cancerians' desire for familiarity as being clingy. Cancerians swamp others with their expectations of closeness and dedication. Once the Cancerian is hurt, a deep depression can follow. An extremely sensitive and vulnerable soul takes in everything and doesn't forget anything. No other sign of the zodiac can be as unforgiving as the Cancerian.
Cancer Man
The Cancer man actually has many feminine virtues. He is extremely sensitive and homely. He lovingly looks after his family and creates a loving home life for his loved ones. Unfortunately, the Cancerian man doesn't usually show his sensitive side and women can therefore only guess his virtues. He would surely have more female fans if he could only show his more feminine side. If you fall in love with a Cancerian, you are sure to find a loving guardian. A Cancerian's desire to protect means that he could be a fantastic paediatrician or social worker. Cancerians can, however, also be extremely successful businessmen, because they place the interests of the client first and foremost. Sometimes Cancerian men seem to lack so-called male characteristics like assertiveness and independence, and they should also work on appearing self-confident as they often seem shy and reserved. The people best suited to Cancer man are Taureans, Virgoans and Piceans for business and as life partners, as these signs of the zodiac prefer home comforts to partying the whole night through.
Cancer Woman
The Cancerian woman is the ideal mother: She loves looking after her kids and her husband. She's an excellent cook and doesn't mind cooking excellent meals day after day. So it would come as no surprise for her chosen occupation to be a housewife. The Cancerian woman doesn't need to climb up the career ladder preferring instead to provide for a whole group of kids and pets. Her affinity towards being a mother sometimes stems from the need to dispense with responsibility. Cancerian women want to be looked after and often put the blame on others. The Cancerian woman is often too self-critical. Instead, she believes fully on her intuition - wanting to find out everything about the matters of the mind. She needs to feel safe and secure. The Cancerian woman stocks up on energy and power within the family unit finding it extremely difficult when children grow up and finally leave home.
Cancer Child
The Cancerian child is just so cute enjoying cuddling up to its parents and developing an extra-special bond with them. The Cancerian child passes on any care he has received to his little brothers and sisters or neighbouring children. The Cancerian child is extremely emotional. He can quickly develop extremely positive emotions and just as quickly feel hurt or sad. The Cancerian child is a cry-baby and easily starts crying. Boys especially hide their sensitive soul behind coolness or a strong image. But this tough Cancerian shell hides a sensitive, gentle interior. And boys, too, want to be loved and comforted when they are upset. Give a Cancerian child as much attention as possible.
Cancer as Employer/Employee
Their inborn desire to protect and look after others can be seen in the Cancerian's professional life. He is extremely popular as a boss as he goes to extreme lengths to look after his employees, he's always open to the problems and difficulties had by employees and is less strict and shows little authority. He can, however, also be extremely capricious. He takes failures personally and he could resent one wrong remark weeks later. He is extremely social and team-oriented as a colleague. He is sociable with colleagues - inviting them to his home and serving them three course meals. His colleagues are often his best friends, because the Cancerian appreciates a relaxed working climate. If, however, conflicts arise, he's not great when it comes to criticism. He usually only sees the errors in others and retreats in a huff. Cancerians are not interested in great careers and power and this is the reason why their colleagues do not see them as competitors on the rocky road to the top and therefore tend to excuse the Cancerian's whims and capriciousness.
