Love and Relationships
Like Taurus, Cancer likes commited relatonships. Cancerians function
best when the relationships is clearly defined and everyone knows
his or her role. When they marry it is usually for life. They are
extremely loyal to their beloved. But there is a deep little secret
that most Cancerians will never admit: commitment or partnership is
really a chore and duty to them. They enter into it because they
know of no other way to create a family that they desire. Union is
just a way - a means to an end- rather than an end in itself. The
family is the ultimate end for them.
If you are in love with a Cancerian you must tread lightly on his or
her feelings. It will take you a good deal of time to realize how
deep and sensitive Cancerians can be. The smallest negativity upsets
them. Your tone voice, your irritation, a look in your eye, an
expression on your face can cause great distress for the Cancerian.
Your slightest gesture is registered by them and reacted to. This
can be hard to get used to, but stick by your love - Cancerians make
great partners once you learn how to deal with them. Your Cancerian
lover will react not so mich to what you say but to the way you are
actually feeling at the moment.
Home and Domestic Life
This where Cancerians really excell. The home environment and
the family are their personal works of art. They strive to make
things of beauty that will outlast them. Very often they succeded.
Cancerians feel very close to their family, their relatives and
especially their mothers. These bonds last throughout their lives
and mature as they grow older. They are very fond of those members
of their family who become successful, and they are also quite
attached to family heirlooms and mementos. Cancerians also love
children and like to provide them with all the things they need and
want. With their nurturing, feeling nature, Cancerians make very
good parents - especially the Cancerian woman, who is the mother par
excellence of the Zodiac.
As a parent the Cancerian's attitude is 'my children right or
wrong'. Unconditional devotion is the order of the day. No matter
what a family member does, the Cancerian will eventually forgive him
or her, because 'you are, after all, family'. The preservation of
the institution - the tradition - of the family is one of the
Cancerian's main reasons for living. They have many lessons to teach
others about it.
Being so family- orientated, the Cancerian's home is always clean,
orderly and comfortable. They like old-fashioned furnishing but they
also like to have all the modern comforts. Cancerians love to have
family and friends over, to organize parties and to entertain at
home - they make great hosts.
