Cancer energy is the fourth sign of the tropical zodiac. The sign of Cancer is one of cardinal action. If there is no crisis for them to take care of, Cancers have been known to create one just to have something to do; becoming the center of attention. This happens a lot when dealing with the younger signs of the zodiac (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer). Cancer, the Crab, is the first, most fascinating, and complex lover of the Water triplicity. Cancers, both male and female, love the security of a relationship. Sensitive to your every whim, they'll make slow, passionate love to you, serve up your favorite meals, massage your body, and totally spoil the hell out of you. Basically making it hard for the next indvidual. All of the devotion Cancer individuals give will demand complete loyalty from you.

Universal energies have to be extremely careful when it comes to the sign of Cancer. Their emotions run deep and when things are not right, Cancer energy becomes smothering and irrational. They will even go as far as harming themselves to make a point! Cancer energy also has the tendancy to play the victim which denotes all of their attractive qualities. It's almost unbearable to see a whinning or upset Cancer. This energy has the ability to make you feel guilty, uncaring, and cold hearted. Yea ... after building you up, if things don't go Cancer's way ... they will break you down!

The energy of Cancer must stay positive and strong in order to properly function. Cancers are ruled by the Moon which brings many mood swings and transition periods for them. Seeing is believing for this water energy. One way to get them to appreciate you is to deliver your love in the way they crave. Geminis love to talk about it. Virgos love to listen and be entertained. Scorpios want someone to express it in an intense sexual experiencce ... but ol' Cancer is a bit of a traditionlist. Cancer energy wants love delivered with kissing, cudddling, good food, and promises of your security ... Forever!

 Remember, most Cancer individuals NEED a mate, a nest and children to make their lives complete. Unless the ascendant is in a more fickle sign, Cancers tend to be loyal, not only to lovers, family and friends, but also to their hometowns and countries of origin, which manifests as a fierce patriotism. The energy of Cancer has a lot of common sense and a practical outlook on life, which makes them good business people and shrewd investors. Definitely worth getting to know and embracing into your life.
