June 22 - July 22

Cancer is the protective, caretaking force of the Zodiac.
He soothes and consoles, understands and nurtures.
Whatever lies within his territory is kindly and generously protected, with a fierce tenacity......
children, home, friends, allies and possessions.
Anyone who disturbs the close circle of Cancer's home will get pinched!

The Cancer is a sensitive soul whose protective nature extends to his own carefully guarded feelings.
Cancer needs to feel strong, because he is responsible for so much and so many.
Any assault on his personal strength, character or integrity is considered a serious threat,
and he may hide, or turn and fight with bitter words.

Because the Cancer has a very deep intuition into the feelings and motives of others, he may detect hostility that is not readily apparent to others, or that is intentionally hidden.
You may see or hear him strike out at a seemingly innocent person, but Cancer knows very well what lies beneath the surface.

Cancer is sometimes called touchy and sensitive. There is much behind this sensitivity.
Ruled by water, he is an imaginative, creative, flowing and maternal person.
Cancer enjoys all things related with caring for others - cooking, tending to young ones,
decorating, teaching, healing, and gathering food.
The Ocean has a special calling to Cancer, and his moods change with the phases of the Moon.
Cancer can be gruff and crabby, or a silly lunatic, but most importantly, he can always be counted on to love unconditionally and to care for his loved ones with all his heart.

The Spidey-Hunnie 34th Birthday in Hawaii 2004

Zodiac
BH's birthday is on July 12th, zodiac sign is Cancer.

Cancer, the fourth Sign of the Zodiac, is all about home. Those born under this Sign are 'roots' kinds of people and take great pleasure in the comforts of home and family. Cancers are maternal, domestic and love to nurture others. More than likely, their family will be large, too -- the more, the merrier! Cancers will certainly be merry if their home life is serene and harmonious. Traditions are upheld with great zest in a Cancer's household, since these folks prize family history and love communal activities. They also tend to be patriotic, waving the flag whenever possible. A Cancer's good memory is the basis for stories told around the dinner table, and don't be surprised if these folks get emotional about things. Those born under this Sign wear their heart on their sleeve, which is just fine by them.

The mascot of Cancerians is the Crab, and much like this shelled little critter, Cancerians are quick to retreat into their shells if it suits their mood. No wonder these folks are called crabby! For Cancer, it's not that big of a deal, though, since they consider this 'shell' a second home (and they do love home). The flip side of this hiding is that shell-bound Crabs are often quite moody. Further, in keeping with their difficulty in sharing their innermost feelings, it can become a Herculean task to pry a Crab out of its secret hiding place. What to do? Give the Crab time -- eventually these folks will come out to play again. When they do, they'll be the first to say so, in keeping with the Cardinal Quality attached to this Sign. It's said that Crabs are first to laugh and first to cry, so you can bet they'll fill you in. That shell, by the way, isn't the only tough thing about Crabs. These folks are tenacious and strong-willed and like to get their way. If their well-documented kindness and gentleness doesn't do the trick, however, they're not above using emotional manipulation to make things happen. If that still doesn't work, they'll just go back to their shell and sulk, or find a way to get back at the source of their pain, since Crabs can be rather vindictive. That said, any self-respecting Crab would tell you that they are ultimately motivated by protecting their home and loved ones, a most noble goal. source
