Comparison with the Cancer symbol, the Crab:

A crab is able to walk or run sideways. Similarly, Cancer natives can sometimes "move about" in life, in a figurative sense, in an indirect manner.
The crab's body is covered by a carapace (shell). Cancer natives are self-protective and sensitive, and often retreat into themselves when hurt.
Crabs are able to resist changes in the environment, thereby protecting themselves from hostile elements in various habitats.
Similarly, Cancer natives are thought to avoid too much change, and to be on the defensive. Crabs have "complex behavior patterns"
(1). The inner world of Cancer natives is thought to be rather quirky and complex. Some crabs "conceal themselves by decorating their bodies with plants and animals"
(2). Cancer natives tend to try to blend in with their environments, preferring not to make a big splash in life.
Cancer's glyph, or symbol, may represent the breasts as a symbol of the nurturing qualities of the sign.



About Cancer:

People born within June 21st to July 21st fall under this zodiac sign called Cancer. In astrology Cancer is associated with crab. If, one follows a cancer horoscope we’ll find that a Cancer has all the traits of a crab. The best element of a cancer is water. Its key planet is moon. A cancer’s greatest potency lies in its ability to nurture the people he/she loves. But a cancer’s biggest weakness is not being able to come out of its past.

According to a cancer horoscope, just like a crab you want to remain in the security of your own outer shell. This is so because you by nature are very reserved, you hold on to your feelings without letting anyone know about them. Since you are not very social so you seem to cling on to the few friends you have. You try to stay within your given territory and want to bring your loved ones into your area and cherish them. Till sometime this habit of yours can be tolerated but if it becomes consistent then people might feel a bit suffocated and bored of you.

A cancer horoscope reveals that like a crab your best defense is to retreat into your shell. You can fight an enemy only within the security of your shelter. Whenever you lose your temper on anybody you just recoil from the scenario in order to avoid any further unpleasant situation. You might not retaliate an argument with words but you will surely stop talking to that person for a long time. This habit of yours will do you more harm mentally and emotionally. It is sometimes necessary to fight back. Make people sit and take notice of your presence.

Cancer horoscope forecasts that you will love to bask in the sun of your past glory for as long as you can. But in order to progress one needs to look ahead, not backwards. Even a past mishap will keep you occupied for a long time and you might fear that something similar might happen to you again. Try to overcome such depressing thoughts by increasing your social circle and visiting new places. A cancer horoscope says that you are a complete family person and if you get enough attention at home then you might not have the urge to be in the company of new people. With the sharp claws of a crab you would hold tight to the people you love.



Moon Cancer-Moon Leo:

Proud and somewhat self-centered, Leo very much wants recognition, appreciation, applause, and to be the favorite or the center of attention. Leo craves affirmation and love but may be hard to know really well, as weaknesses, problems, doubts or insecurities are rarely admitted.
Leo has a dramatic streak and tends to exaggerate or blow things out of proportion. Wounded pride or a feeling of being ignored, neglected, or "not special" are Leo's particular sensitivities.


Cancer is a much softer, more private, sensitive shy person than Leo is, much less of a showman, and Leo's histrionics are too much for Cancer at times. Leo is usually sunny, sociable, good humored, while Cancer is often moody and needs to withdraw sometimes. Cancer has emotional ups and downs, while Leo is fairly constant emotionally.

You may be a complementary pair, though, because Cancer is supportive and will not compete for dominance with Leo, and Leo appreciates Cancer's supportiveness and sympathy. You are both very protective, loyal, and warm toward one another.


General Traits:

Cancer is likely the most complex and sensitive sign of the zodiac. You are ruled by the moon, and because of this your moods can be similar, as beautiful and outgoing as the full moon, and as melancholic and distant as the dark moon. The moon is essentially a female symbol, and associated on an emotional level with maternal instincts, service to the public, psychic abilities, and protection of self, family, and friends. You enjoy domestic duties, puttering around the house and taking care of people, making sure they are comfortable, fed, and happy. Your kind and nurturing ways make people feel secure and important, feeling at home in your home. This place is very important to you, as it provides security and protection. It is in essence, your den or your shell. You have a great deal of personal pride and you enjoy comfortable but well made clothes and jewelry that is not too flashy or gaudy. It is important for you to keep up appearances, and you dislike looking dirty or out of place. You have a good sense of value and refuse to waste money on frivolities. Everything you have has a reason to be, whether practical, decorative, or simply for its sentimental value. You may have a treasure chest of miscellaneous sentimental items, cards or pictures that remind you of days past. You may collect antiques, or old cars or dolls, or anything that you believe has value. Your genuine tie to the past is strong and it may be something you feel you have to care for. Cancers need companionship and there is an undeniable need to care for someone or something. The fear of insecurity often leads to putting much time and effort into activities that may help with the feeling of security and self-preservation. You are reliable and consistent, and you usually reach your goals, as you have an aversion to failing or feeling inadequate.

If you feel threatened, you will withdraw and admit defeat rather than defend yourself. This shows your naturally introverted nature, of which you should be wary of, possibly resulting in a tendency to go inside or hide yourself for too long. This may lead to feelings of self-pity, worthlessness, and a deeper fear of failure. A crabby cancer can be sulky, moody, devious, and downright nasty. You find it difficult to joke about yourself because you are so serious about what you think others think of you. You often feel no one really knows how you feel except you. Your emotional fortitude allows you to survive the worst, and you may not always be able to let go completely, but you can move on. Luckily you can have a sense of humor, and you see your trials and tribulations as lessons to share with others.

Because of your helping nature, you should be careful of being taken for granted. You often give more than you receive, and ask little in return for something you likely worked very hard at. If you don't feel appreciated, you may end up bitter and resentful. Be sure you don't give too much of yourself.


Relationships:

Your relationships are highly dependent on love, mutual respect, financial stability, and commitment. In the dance of love, you enjoy being the one in control. You prefer a slow, but sizzling courtship, and being an incurable romantic, you are happiest when your partner remembers the little things that make you smile. You know your partner enjoys the undivided and flirtatious attention you give them as well, and if you are able to find that balance then you are hooked. You expect total devotion from your partner, and want to be totally devoted in return. You respond well to honest warmth and affection, and you genuinely enjoy spending time with your loved one. If your partner can make you feel loved and safe, you will be drawn out of your shell almost magically, transforming before their very eyes. You need physical and emotional well-being, and your partner must do their best to help you fulfill this. On the down side however, you can cling to a lost love long after the love should have dwindled, especially if you were the one cut loose. If you make the decision though, you will likely feel some remorse, but understand that it was best for the both of you.
