Cancer (also known as Moonchild) has the same nature as the crab: hard
on the outside and soft on the inside. They often keep outsiders at
arm's length to protect their deeply felt emotions. Once you find your
way into a Cancer's heart, it takes a cataclysmic event to kick you out.
They
tend to be highly intuitive, sensitive, and possess empathic healing
abilities. Cancers must learn to honor their own boundaries, meaning
that they should not pick up every stray animal or person - or at least
let them go after they are nourished and healed.
On a spiritual
level, Cancer helps people to know that they are loved and cared for.
The people who fall through the cracks of society or have unmet
emotional needs fall into Cancer's domain. Never insult the family of a
Cancer person, as family is sacred to them.
Cancer rules the breasts, stomach, ulcers, the disease cancer, children, and milk.
The United States has its Sun in Cancer.
