Cancer

Personality

Cancer feels a lot and remembers everything. You have a soft inside behind a protective shell and you like taking care of others. Home, family and familiar people are the foundation you draw your strength from.

Love and relationships

In love you are devoted and caring. You need to feel safe before you fully open up. When you feel hurt you retreat instead of speaking up, and the thing to work on is naming it anyway.

For love, talk to Elise.

Work and money

At work you are intuitive and loyal. You sense what a team or client needs. You do best with people you trust and in an atmosphere where you can be yourself.

For work and money, talk to Victor.

Best matches

These signs generally get along well with each other:

More than your sun sign

Your sun sign is only one spot in your birth chart. Your moon sign, your rising sign and the positions of all the planets colour the whole picture. So what a magazine says about Cancer never fits you completely. A personal analysis based on your birth date, birth time and birth place says far more.

The borders between two signs can shift by a day from year to year. If you were born near such a border, your birth time shows which sign is truly yours.
