CANCER,
SCORPIO, and PISCES are the intuitive and emotional
Water signs. They wear their hearts on their sleeves and
rightly so, for their hearts are pure and kind. Though
they pretend, in different ways, to be dry, they can't
help but well up with compassion at the slightest sob
story. But they can afford to be a little more giving
than the rest of us because, for all their apparent
insecurity, they can never come to real harm. It's easy
to disperse water but hard to destroy it. Sooner or
later, even if it has to seep underground or evaporate
in order to escape, water always finds its way to more
water. If you seek a companion full of heartfelt
feeling, look no further. If you prefer less fluidity or
you fear being swamped by ever-changing moods, you're
out of your depth here..
from an
excerpt from Jonathan Cainer's Forecasts
Cancerians have often
been likened to crabs because of the way they are 'soft
and vulnerable' on the inside, yet have a very tough
shell. It has also been suggested that, just as
crabs scuttle sideways, so Cancerians prefer to take a
subtle indirect approach to their goals. The real
link, however, is simpler. Crabs lives are
governed by the tides which are ruled by the Moon.
As a Cancerian, this is so typical.
What
Makes a Cancerians tick?
On the whole, Cancers have an unassuming manner but,
underneath, they're as sharp as stainless steel
scissors! Their insight is instinctive rather than
analytical but (particularly when it comes to people)
they rarely miss a trick. This immaculate judgment of
character is their greatest asset. Cancers have a
powerful desire to nurture, cherish and protect.
Naturally this makes them loyal and loving. They operate
on heartfelt emotion which is why they are so often on
the defensive. Like a crab, retreating into it's shell,
Cancerians often protect themselves by shutting out
anything that could be potentially hurtful or harmful.
I wish
my instinct didn't work as well as it does at times.
It would make my life a whole lot easier.
