7 Facts About Cancers, the Zodiac’s Loyal Crabs
It’s almost summertime, which means Cancer szn, bb!!! From June 21 to July 22, expect the waterworks to be in full swing. And I’m not just talking about the ocean, pool, or sweat from all your at-home workouts. Cancer season means ~emotions~, aka a few tears and all the deep feels. If you didn’t know, Cancer is a water sign, so like their fellow water friends (hi, Pisces and Scorpio), Cancers are totally submerged in their surroundings. They simply cannot help that they’re ruled by their emotions!! They perceive others’ feelings intensely—like, I’m talking borderline psychic deep. For better or worse, Cancers tend to be clouded by their many changing moods and vivid imagination…which *cough* is why we are here today.
Before we do a deep dive, lemme make one thing clear: Cancers are NOT crybabies. For some reason, these sweet summer babes are associated with very false stereotypes. But fret not, I’m here to clear all this up, because the truth is, Cancers have a lot to offer. As with all zodiac signs, there are certain myths that have got to be debunked once and for all. Forget ghostbusters—we’re here to guide you on what is myth and what is fact in regard to Cancers. Spoiler alert: They are the brave crabs for a reason.
Let’s just say there’s a reason Cancers are the secret-keepers of your friend group. They’re generous, loyal, and empathetic. No matter how busy they may be, they will always make time to be there for you in times of crisis. They make amazing friends and lovers who give awesome advice and will offer you their shoulder to cry on without hesitation.
It’s easy to trust Cancers. Once you’re in their life, expect them to love on you all the time. That’s because above all else, they genuinely want to put a smile on your face. Don’t be surprised if you’re greeted with a random act of kindness or a special gift from your Cancer pal.
Fact: Cancers are self-aware.
Water signs are in tune with their emotions, which sometimes makes people think Cancers are whiny. The reality is that they’re simply highly sympathetic individuals who know that they feel more deeply than others. These water signs often think with their hearts rather than their heads, but they know it—and they’re okay with it. In fact, friends often turn to Cancers for advice because of how wise and ~emotionally intelligent~ they are.
Fact: Cancers are moody.
Because Cancers are ruled by the Moon, their emotions change as quickly as the Moon’s phases. Not to mention that as water signs, they’re sentimental and nostalgic by nature. So when they get into one of their ~moods~, don’t be surprised if they retreat into their crab shells for a while. Literally, we may never know why a Cancer is giggling one minute and then throwing dagger eyes the next. Just be sure to give them enough attention and TLC and they will likely perk back up soon. Cancers are sensitive little crustaceans, but the joke is low-key on everyone else because they totally embrace their moodiness and we’re all just left going, “WTF just happened?” Mood, Cancer…m-o-o-d.
Fact: Cancers are homebodies.
When you’re with a Cancer, you might feel like you’re finally home. They exude a special warmth that makes everyone around them feel welcome and loved. And like crabs who carry their pads around with them, they feel most secure in their home. Cancers need a place where they can feel grounded and safe, and they’ll invest a lot of time and cash into decorating their space, whatever it is. And to get a lil metaphysical on ya, Cancers value the people who mean home to them—like their S.O., their fam, and their longtime BFFs.
