About Cancer

People who were born on or between the dates June 22 and July 22 fall under the fourth sign of the zodiac, the “House of Family and Home”. Derived from the Latin word “cancer” which translated to “crab”, cancerians are known to take pride in just exactly that … their home and family. They are very nurturing and make romantic and devoted partners, though they do have a tendency to be emotional and wear their hearts on their sleeves. They will protect their loved-ones at all costs and with a high level of tenacity and protectiveness.

Cancerians, however, are prone to feelings of selfishness and may sometimes feel sorry for themselves. When this occurs, robust workout sessions are the perfect antidote to Cancer's emotionality. Team sports are preferred since Cancers enjoy the sense of community and camaraderie.

People born under the sign of Cancer are also known to be good with money. They are non-confrontational, quick to help others and are great in the kitchen.

The color of Cancerians is silver, and their star stone is the luminescent pearl. The sign has also been associated with governing the chest, breast, elbow, stomach and digestion, womb and female reproductive organs.
