THREE LITTLE LETTERS for you: M-O-M. That's right, Cancers are the ultimate nurturers, and many have a natural affinity for giving out TLC. If your ego needs soothing, or you want someone to listen to you, Cancers are can be counted on to offer warmth and comfort. (Unless, of course, they're in one of their own funks...then you may have to comfort them.)

Ruled by the Moon, Cancers are highly intuitive, and may even border on the psychic. All this sensitivity has a downside, though -- Cancers are prone to moody, cranky spells, and they're no fun to be around at such times. When Cancers feel shy or threatened, they retreat into their shells, like their archetypal ruler the crab. They can be sticks in the mud, whom you literally have to drag out of the house. The worst side of these oversensitve ways can manifest as a violent, possessive temperament (think notable Cancers like OJ Simpson and Mike Tyson) or substance abuse. Others express their "fear of the outside" through conservative political views (Bob Dole, Ross Perot, and Jack Kemp are all Cancers).

Like Cancer Robin Williams, members of this sign are often known for brilliant, clever wit. When Cancers feel comfortable and emerge from their shells, their liveliness can outmatch even that of the most boisterous Sagittarian or showy Leo.
