Cancerians are a bit of a challenge to understand. One minute they are listening empathetically and the next minute they could not care less about another person’s problems. On Monday a Cancer can be swimming in “poor me” and by Wednesday they are ready to help in whatever way is needed of them. Deep feelings and extreme emotional sensitivity can be found in a Cancer, but only if you can break through their thick defenses. Cancerians search for constant approval and love, but despise the fact that they want it so badly. If you have a Cancer on your side, never fear, for they are loyal beyond imagination. A Cancer can listen to your problems, but don’t wait for them to reciprocate. Their matters of the heart stay far beneath the surface. Having a big heart but a tough exterior creates an inner battle of saying “no” to other people’s requests for help… but always giving in and helping in the end. Family, home and a traditional marriage are very important to the Cancer. However the ability to live in this manner is sometimes a struggle. Cancers do tend to achieve their goals, but the direct route is rarely followed. Love and money equal security to a Cancer, yet they rarely ever feel they have enough to feel secure. Devoted and affectionate, Cancerians are easy to fall in love with. However, maintaining a stable and communicative relationship with a Cancerian is another story altogether.
