Our Ultimate Guide To The Cancer Star Sign
Cancer season is fast approaching us, and if you have a cancer in your life that you can’t quite figure out, you’re not the only one. Cancers can be extremely confusing, and it is a never-ending battle to get to know them enough to feel like you know them.
Cancerians are born from the 21st of June until the 22nd of July, their symbol is a crab, and their ruling planet is the moon. Other than that, cancers can be closed books and extremely frustrating to those that care about them.
If you want to know more about what is going on with the cancer in your life, we have some insider info for you.

If ever you doubted that a cancer cares about you, they probably didn’t because when cancers love, they love hard and are loyal to a fault. So you will be able to see plain as day if a cancer cares about you or not. However, this does also mean that they can be clingy and insecure at times.
It might be difficult to get to know a cancer because they tend to be a more introverted star sign. This could be because they are so intuitive and emotional, and they need to figure out who you are before they are willing to open up to you at all.

Although it will take you quite a long time to get a cancer to let their walls down for you, once they do, it will be intimate bliss. They will celebrate every win and mourn every loss with you as if it were their own, and you will always have someone to turn to when you need it the most.
Cancers are fiercely loyal, and you can be sure that they will not betray you, but you should be prepared for them to be clingy and sometimes needy because of their devotion to you. If you’re not into giving attention, it is best to stay away from cancers.
In Friendships

Because of their fiercely loyal nature, having a cancer as your friend and in your corner is one of the best friendships that you will ever have. However, cancers won’t let just anyone into their friendship group, and they will need to be sure that your loyalty matches theirs before they accept you as one of their friends.
You can be sure that any secrets you tell to a cancer will be kept even if you are no longer friends because it is not in their nature to betray your trust by sharing things you told them privately.
As Parents

If your parent is a cancer, all I have to say is lucky you. Cancer parents create a sanctuary of love, comfort, and home-cooked meals for their brood that will never run out and will extend to anybody else who might need it. This means that if your friend is over for the night, they’re part of the family too.
However, it is in a cancer parent’s nature to be quite overprotective, which can come off as overbearing if you are the child. Understand that they are not trying to smother you; they are simply trying to ensure that only the best things happen to you.

A cancer will allow you to feel safe and comfortable enough to reveal everything you are feeling and be empathetic enough to sit with you through the worst of it and help you figure it out.
You will receive so much love and patience from a cancer that it will seem as though you have found a best friend for life. There is no shortage of understanding regarding cancers, and they will always try to see the best in you.

Because cancers spend so much of their time ensuring that everybody else is okay, they can often end up feeling empty and alone. This will obviously lead to moodiness and cancer being more emotional than they need to be at times.
While cancers are excellent at listening to other people, they are not as good at voicing their own opinions or desires, which might lead to these things building up over a period of time and suddenly exploding one day for seemingly no reason at all.
