ATROLOGY-SUN IN CANCER

SUN IN CANCER


The Cancerian character is the most perplexing of the signs.  Cancer can range from the timid, shy, dull and withdrawn to brilliant, friendly and famous.  Cancerians run the entire gamut of human emotion. Fundamentally conservative and home-loving by nature, they appreciate the security of a home-base in which to retire when the stresses of living become too much to bear.
Cancerians possess strong paternal and maternal instincts.  The term nest is an appropriate label for the Cancerian home, because it describes a natural and comfortable type of residence.  A retreat for the family, where you can put up your feet and feel at home.  Appearing formidable and thick-skinned, Cancerian's have an unemotional demeanor, appearing uncompromising and obstinate.  This is the facade they use to mask an insecure nature.  Their intimates, however, may see a different character, one with sympathy and sensitivity to other people, especially those they love.
By nature, very giving and selfless, Cancerians need to be aware of falling into the role of martyr in certain situations.  One of the interesting contradictions in their nature is that they are prone to a sense of personal inferiority on one hand, and on the other they believe their views, opinions and behavior to be impeccable, and beyond question or criticism.   Strange!
The overall nature of Cancerians is deeply emotional.  Although private and reserved, they possess sensitivity and sympathy.  Rarely will a Cancer stand on pretense.  What appears to be a front is nothing more than a protective shell.  Within this tough armor often resides an intuitively compassionate individual yearning for a deep exchange of love and understanding.
With a natural flair for the dramatic, many Cancerians make life choices that provide outlet for their artistic talents.  Wheter playing a role for stage or screen, one place these folks will always shine is performing before an audience.  It may be an outward manifestation of that keen sensitivity or merely a native aptitude for immitating the mannerisims of others, call it what you will ... Cancer connects.  Some of the most successful and enduring carreers in Theatre and Cinema were born within this Sun sign.
Cancers tend to a narrowly focused worldview of which they can be very opinionated.  'Live and let live' is rarely spoken by a Cancerian.  They have a retentive memory, and seldom forgive slights and hurts.  A Cancerian will never let you forget an error. Like a beach crab, with pincers raised, a slighted cancer will come at you again and again to avenge a perceived hurt.  Conversely, Cancers are fiercely loyal to those who show them a good turn.  They are driven by their emotional nature, and, in this respect, can be the best and the worst of friends.
