Cancer is called the paradox of the twelve. A few harmonious people are to be found in it, which as far as known have not given any especial attention to mental or spiritual development; but, gener ally speaking, the genius of the Cancer sign is exceedingly difficult to explain. Those born under it have a persistent will, a clutch of determination, intuition, and purpose.
Cancer is the first sign in the Water Element grouping. Cancer people have deep emotions and fathomless longings. Rather than take a risk and put all their energy into something that might fail, they prefer to wait and watch. When the time is ripe they dive in with great speed and efficiency. Cancer is serious, caring, sensitive people with complex psyches. This is a sign that dislikes taking unnecessary risks. When the going gets tough, they are perfectly content to dig in and surround themselves with domestic comfort and security.
