Sensitive, present and with a huge heart. That's a good way to describe Cancerians, born between June 21st and July 22nd and ruled by the element of Water and the planets Venus and Jupiter, but do you know what your sun sign says about you and how it affects your personality? Do you know what the characteristics of Cancer natives are and how, for example, they deal with love?
Take these and other questions in this article about the main characteristics of Cancer natives that we have prepared.
According to astrology, each star and each planet exert a different influence on us. The Sun, for example, is responsible for dictating the main characteristics of our personality, so it defines our essence, that is, the most fundamental traits of who we are. If, at the time of your birth, the Sun was transiting through the constellation of Cancer, this sign will influence your personality with its traits.
Cancer Symbols
There are two main symbols that refer to the sign of Cancer. The main one, best known, is the crab, which represents the tendency of these natives to use their “claws” to cling to things, people, places and situations that are very pleasant and that do them a lot of good. In addition, the comparison extends because, despite the hard shell, crabs hide inside a fragile and delicate interior. The other symbol that refers to this sign is a pair of maternal breasts, which reflects the desire to nourish, protect and welcome that characterizes Cancerians.
Cancer zodiac sign in love
Delivery is the word that best defines the way Cancerians behave in love. They are people who can even end up canceling themselves in their relationships, such is their desire to please the person they love. In addition, they are people with very strong maternal instincts, so they can end up confusing the role of companion/partner with the role of someone responsible for the well-being and the most basic care of the loved one. Finally, they are people very driven by emotions and little driven by reason, so they may end up not reflecting on the good progress of the relationship when they are very much in love.
Cancer personality
The main characteristic that Cancerians are known for is their extreme sensitivity, so they cry for any reason, are easily offended, and are hurt very little. They are people with unstable moods, so they can change from happiness to sadness or from love to hate in the blink of an eye. But one thing never changes in the Cancerian's personality: he is a very cute, affectionate person and concerned with the well-being of the people he loves. Having a Cancer around is making sure that there is a person who will be willing, whenever possible, to welcome, care for and love.
Cancer Characteristics
As they care a lot about each other, Cancers are very sad when they feel that the people they love don't care about them, so they feel this great need for reciprocity. Their insecurities are very big and they feel rejected for nothing, so they demand a lot of care from their friends, family and love partners. Cancer natives are, above all, loyal, faithful people and always willing to go head to head with anyone to help the people who are part of their life. Finally, Cancers have a heart the size of the world and, despite being hurt easily, they are always willing to forgive and move on after being hurt.
Cancer and the other signs
Aries: Cancerians highly idealize their love relationships and think too much about the future, while Aries live more in the present and now.
Taurus: It's a beautiful combination, as both Cancers and Taurus highly value fidelity, family and the deepening of their love relationships.
Gemini: Both Gemini and Cancer like to be in control and lead the relationship, which will require constant conversations, negotiations and rearrangements to avoid conflict.
Cancer: as it will be a relationship in which two very sensitive people will be involved, it may be that things work out perfectly or that they end up getting hurt.
Leo: although Leos and Cancers have a good chance of matching and considering each other fascinating people, the truth is that one will never get used to the way the other makes decisions.
Virgo: Virgo, so little focused on love, can find a comfortable home in Cancer, while Cancer will find in Virgo someone organized and centered, which is great for him.
Libra: it is a very harmonious relationship, as it combines the delicacy and seduction of Libras with the inventiveness and sensitivity of Cancerians.
Scorpio: Cancers maintain a more passive stance, while Scorpios are more controlling, which can create an unhealthy relationship between the two.

Sagittarius: As they like to discover and explore new paths, Cancers will find good company for their adventures alongside Sagittarius.
Capricorn: While Capricorns seek success and reward for hard work, Cancers only want lightness and happiness, which can make them incompatible.
Aquarius: Aquarians, progressive that they are, are always looking to the future, while Cancerians are more attached to the past, which can be uncomfortable.
Pisces: The relationship between Cancer and Pisces is likely to be overly exaggerated, overly sentimental and overly dramatic, with no one down to earth.
Cancer Astral Hell
The astral hell period always occurs 30 days before a person's birthday and represents a time when he is normally obliged to do the opposite of what his personality demands, which can be very uncomfortable. The astral hell of Cancerians happens in the sign of Gemini and therefore presents a time when Cancer natives need to be flexible and deal with unexpected situations, contrary to what Cancer natives, so controlling and restrained, like.
decans of cancer
1st decan (21/6 to 30/6): Cancerians are the most unpredictable and, therefore, the most unstable. In addition, they tend to be friendly, like to be at home and are kind whenever possible.
2nd decan (1/7 to 10/7): They represent a particularly intense and passionate type of Cancer about everything. They are always with their emotions on edge, they are persistent and insistent and they never forget anything.
3rd decan (11/7 to 21/7): Cancer is more sensitive and emotional, and is often more spiritually connected. They are, above all, a model of a generous, affectionate person with a wild imagination.
Now you know every detail of the personality of Cancer natives; but, as explained in the introduction, each star and each planet influence us differently, so it is essential that you make a birth chart and understand how these stars interact with each other in your chart and in what way they influence you.
