Happy Cancer season!
Cancer is the fourth zodiac and runs from June 21th - July 22th. It's the first water sign in the zodiac wheel and it's ruled by the moon, which is known as the planet of emotions.
I will be doing a blog post for each zodiac sign as well as a gift guide alongside each one so you can find the perfect gift for your friends and family aligning with their zodiac sign.
Cancers are generally thought of as the ‘mum friend’ of the group. They’re a very nurturing and caring sign. As Cancer is ruled by the moon their emotions can be closely interlinked with the moon's phases. This means some days they could be really compassionate and other days closed off emotionally. Their home is often really important to them; feeling like they belong somewhere and having that safe space. Cancers are usually very sentimental. They are highly intuitive of other people's needs and feelings, but can struggle being overwhelmed by emotion.
Some of Cancer’s qualities:
- Caring and nurturing
- Possessive
- Empathy
- Intuition

Cancer is symbolised by the crab, which is said to reflect how they are often very strong on the inside but big softies in reality.
