Being a Cancer is complex. We are best known for being the most emotional individuals of the zodiac, and we're not afraid to show it. Whether we are in a relationship or just spending time with friends, according to astrology, Cancers are all about sharing the love.
We want everyone in our life to know that we would do just about ANYTHING for them (so don't fuck with us).
We Cancers can also be very protective of our friends and loved ones because we know better than anyone what it can feel like to be an outsider. Sure, this might make it hard for us to make new friends or get involved in a new relationship, but once we get to know you, you're part of our crew for LIFE.

If you're a Cancer, then you know how hard it can be for others to see things your way, especially when you're trying to keep your emotions in check. Okay, yeah, we can get moody and a little touchy, but that doesn't mean you need to remind us to chill out. There's nothing wrong with being a feisty, confident woman.
