Are all Cancerians caring? |
 |
I thought it would be nice if I put up a question every now and then for everyone to put down their opinion etc. I have done this just for fun and it is not meant to be taken seriously!!
It is widely known that peopleborn under the Sun sign of Cancerare very caring and kind people. However, this usually only works out when the person has this sign in other areas of their chart. In fact, it is sometimes the case that Cancer the crab people can be very critical of others which is always a shock for people who believe that all Cancer’s are helpful, kind and caring.
Please leave comments of your own opinions on this, and any Cancerians out there or friends and family of an overly critical and not your stereotypical caring Cancer person, …let’s hear from you too. Also if you have any questions you would like me to ask here then please drop me a line and I will put the best ones up on the site.

Cancers are so many things @ once, very mutuable, easily influenced. Up & or down. Very funny very. Dull. Very timid yet extremely passionate, cold yet clingy. All in one. Wouldn’t you say. 69. Like the foundation, ones subliminal heart. The mother. Mother nature can be destructive. They honestly have something in common with every sign.maybe because they change so much. Ex. Sometimes they are free spirited as if they can’t be reached. With no regards to what society says about them. Not liking to be told what to do. Aquarius? Then are drowned in a current of emotions, pisces? /Quite selfishly inward.? Views self amongst existance? Whatever beneifits them. Aries? Probably why they bump heads. /Needs security, obtains a natural need to protect and be protected. TAurus? Ok here’s a funny one, cancer can be extremely cold & numb right? True I’ve been told that. While gemini thinks. Cancer feels. There’s. Extreme polarity for you. What. better relation then ying and yang. Which is separated by a thin line. Cancer can be the same if she/he feels a nothingness from the gemini. Which can lead to the cancer being on the go. With no interest for the -gemini.(my ex. bestfriend) Leo, passionate! Sometimes likes attention depending on the mood. Loyalness.LIkes games once in a while when feeling bold./ Virgo, shyness worring. Intuitive, suspiciousness. A realist. LIkes pefect world./Libra loves. love, beauty harmony, peace and family.closeness. Dreamers. Scorpiioo, depth of emotion like no other, true to say we read them very well, the eyes are too deep, To miss when depths are too cold. they may be quite harsh. My mother./ Sag- hmm not to sure. Don’t know any sags like that. Lol sure we hve somethings in common. Last but not least capricorn. (The seagoat) Our polarity we truely understand each other. Need I say anymore. They lay on the outer skirts, a little more calm. With the ability to be on land. CAncers change too much to be defined as 1 main thing. They are the mothers, or @least the conscious of it.

Obviously, “Keith Rogers”, everyone here who said that they found Cancers to be loving and caring are lying; they don’t know what the hell they’re talking about.
For the record, I was being sarcastic. (This, to inform the more literal-minded readers)
On a more serious note, trusting that you are being real, I see a girl (or a gay guy, whichever one you are) trying to sincerely make a point about the negative side of Cancer; you are obviously hurt and have a lot of passion to express. However, once you start to include scapegoating in your message, it becomes murky and preposterous, and your cup of credibility becomes less than half full. I found myself having a bit of a hard time taking you seriously because of the tactlessly blatant, not to mention laughable, prejudice coming from your post. First, it’s your ex-boyfriend born of July 13 who hurts you. Next, it’s you spiting much of the population of Cancer men (including those born on days other than the 13th??) and branding it possibly worthy of suspicion for unfaithfulness and missed empathy, just like your boyfriend… I can only wonder how many (decent and/or innocent) Cancers you yourself might have hurt and how many might have been upset by reading your post.
I think you are smart enough to know that your boyfriend doesn’t speak for all Cancer men, even those tens of thousands of ones born on his birthday. I’m also almost certain that you know, or at least have the capability to learn, that there are cancers who are beyond the quintessential stereotype and care about people other than just their close family members. You were angry, and you let this foolishly color your views of what people of the zodiac sign are like.
Well, I guess I have made my point. Why don’t I now focus more on your situation, since that was what you were originally talking about.
I know what feelings of betrayal feels like; I think Cancers and Scorpios alike can share that terrifying heartbreak. Once someone has become disloyal, everything becomes a living nightmare: the one who we knew and loved so much for so long has all gone down the drain, and so too do trust and eternal bond. It’s alomst like a piece of our hearts being turned into stone, and our entire bodies just won’t function the same anymore. I am sincerely sorry that you went through this. However, I kindly ask as a fellow Cancerian that you try to express your feelings without having to point fingers at people who are otherwise innocent and non-involved. Concluding, I hope that in the future you will find a boyfriend, regardless of what his sign may be, who can truly live up to the “until death do us apart” vow (which I don’t think is only suitable for marriage).
Best wishes,
~~~Tony~~~

well i’m a piscean but i’d just like to say that i definately understand why cancerians go bad. they really are the most giving people until they get stomped on. i knew a guy once and i was very close to him, he’d been ‘diagnosed’ with adhd,add, aspergers, he’d been drugged by his parents, even with ritalin without the doctors knowing for sure that this guy had ANYTHING at all. anyway i got to know him and there was absolutely nothing wrong with him, he was rediagnosed after he reluctantly went to see a counsellor and eureka! NOTHING wrong. the point of me telling you all this? cancerians don’t always act like you expect them to act, so don’t judge them until you know them, that goes for every other person on this earth as well. i know this is kind of a rant and i apologise lol. that’d be my inner rooster not knowing when to shut my trap >w>. you get the point though. xx

I am a cancer…and omg i can totally relate to most people here. I always thought that I was an odd cancer, im not very family oriented, eventhough i love them, but i can definitely do without them for periods of times. Emotional?I guess you can say I can be emotional, not when it comes to my personal problems or feelings, things dont face me the same way it does to others, I just say whatever and move on. But when it comes to other peoples feelings or problems, I am right there with you holding your hand. All my friends come to me for advice because as a cancer I can easily put myself in someone elses position. I over analyze everything!!!!I can be very moody, a simple comment that wasnt directed in a negative way can change my mood instantly, but I can be over it 10 mins later. In relationships, I dont show any sort of emotion until the other person does. I guess its a sort of shield to not get hurt,which makes it hard for me to get attached to someone. When it comes to friendships, I get along with everyone I meet, I keep friends for a long time. I can be caring, but you have to be selfish sometimes. I am very witty and sarcasm is my middle name, I can take it and give it back. I am very independent and love adventure, so when it comes to being a home body who doesnt like to go out Im gonna have to disagree.

Many Cancer males I know are very selfish. I think they feel insecure in the “ultra-feminine” sign, and perhaps build a ton of defenses.

Well am a male cancer and i can describe u every single way how we are… we are very romantic and we care about the people we love more than to ourselfs,also we like to help people.. When we hurt somebody it actually hurts us more than to them.. we love giving advices we are kind and we try to make other people happy nd not try to make ourself happy……. THE BAD THINGS… we have a bad temper i dont like people telling me what to do i hate dat it pisses me off if u do something to me ill remember that my whole life …we have great memory nd we calculate too much people because we live in our past which means if someone does something to us we think they are gonna do it again to us sooo we evaluate everything..we can be very caring but if u mess up we can be ur worst enemy… i hope it helps

I can die for humanity and have the ability to cry over ads on tv, but I can also walk through a field of dead babies and kick the shit of my feet. We are people’s pleasers, ego boosters, but not weak. I have Gemini rising, mars and mercury in Gemini, sun in cancer, moon in Pisces, Venus in cancer, Jupiter and Saturn conduct in libra- a lot of air, a lot of water. I love my kids, but I love my freedom equally. If I thought I could lie longterm I would cheat all the time, variety, but my Scorpio would never , he’ll keel over. plus I consider our union sacred and I’ll protect it at all costs, although the feeling of being smothered gets a bit much at times. He’s wonderful and caring and beyond this world in bed.

Hello, I’m Cancerian Pig.
I’ve read this post, all the comments above and I have to agree that the most of us Cancerians are extremely emotional, we love our homes and we do really love our friends and family. We are totally family-orientated. But you guys have to separate truth and critical. I don’t think we are that ‘critical’..
The worst I’ve read was, that you label us as unfaithful. I know myself: I was not, am not and I will never be unfaithful. In my opinion, unfaithful people are the worst. I hate them, so I will never become like that.
August 26th, 2011 at 5:58 pm
Hey
I can tell you that Cancers are really helpful. They are moody and a but jealous, over sensitive and emotional, moody and clingy but caring, supportive, protective and encouraging. They love their home more than anyone else. Of anyone of you wanna know about any zodiac sign, just read Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs..:) 
everything in that book is true and also Cancers find it hard to say goodbye or let go
I know all this cause I’m also a cancer
August 29th, 2011 at 2:49 pm
Cancers can be caring, but their pathetic attempts to hold a grudge and be vindictive can be quite tiresome. I’m a Taurus. These games don’t work with us. We may not be as intuitive as Cancers, but trust me, we’re the investigators, watchers, the most cautious and stubborn individuals in the zodiac. While Cancers are plotting revenge, a Taurus will place emotional wedges and observe and analyze your movements. Oh, and we will not budge! LOL.
Oh, we pick up on your subtle hints. We simply refuse to play the game…and always looking for a way out.
Once we decide that your intentions are malicious, we will make a Cancer’s head spin…to the point of confusion…
Two things a Taurus protects, OURSELVES and OUR FAMILY. Everything else is irrelevant. Including YOU.
My Cancer is in love.
Being extremely petty.
…And I’m being entertained with no prospect of being with this Cancer.
My advice to all Cancers….
The pettiness may work for casual affairs…
But not for longevity.

Likewise, Bull77, I also happen to know that Cancer’s said-intuitiveness usually gets to Taurus, and Tuarus knows that he won’t win. Every time a Taurus like my little brother gets told off when my (Cancer’s) accurate predictions penetrate him/her, he/she would try to level the same kind of mind-penetrating ability back at me (Cancer). The problem with my little bro doing this, however, is that he takes LITERAL (not to mention GENERIC) information from the surface and throws it back into my face, thinking to himself that he’s making a psychic prediction. Unfortunately for him, his psychic Cancerian older brother (me) knows that literal information cannot accurately attack the actual feelings that maybe going on UNDERNEATH. Cancer knows this to be the typical frail attempt by Taurus to get back at Cancer. And WHY, one asks?
Answer: it is stated in my first statement.
What also gets to me is that he thinks that by adding a component of slap-head name-calling and then turning away with a conspicuous blink of an eye and a lift of snooty nose would piss me off. He thinks he got me back, but really, he just makes himself look even more like an idiot. Because litteral surface visual information do not affect me. See?
You are right, Bull77. Cancers ARE intuitive, including myself. Like all the other water sunsigns, we usually have things and conversations figured out before take place. (What we specifically figure out and how we go about figuring it out may vary by the sign). Having said that, if Cancer is “holding a grudge” or is behaving in a petty negative manner, I already know that
a) it’s your fault, or
b) you bear much responsibility to his feeling upset (even if you may not think or, rather, TRY to not think so)
I also happen to know that you yourself are involved every bit in the pettiness and is, in fact, are likely holding a petty grudge yourself against a Cancer or perhaps a bunch of Cancers. Maybe not in the same was Cancer is, but a grudge nevertheless.
MY advice to TAURUS is,
Unless you are a mean-ass Pisces or Scorpio, you will never defeat Cancer at the mental teardown game, so don’t even try.

*sighs* I guess that’s all we can ever be…caring people. All the while, Scorpio and Pisces are PSYCHIC and SAVING THE UNIVERSE…
Perhaps I should have been born under one of those sunsigns. Maybe then, this pathetic human life can serve a more meaningful purpose.
I’m not disvowing care for other people’s feelings. That’s a great thing to have! But, I just wish we were more than JUST that.
Suicide is an answer mayhaps?
December 18th, 2011 at 4:37 am
Cancers act like their saving the world, yet it only applies to things in their own interest. The cancers that I have known seem too self-centered to be “caring.” It’s no surprise that cancer and leo are right next to each other. Cancers are jealous petty leaders, who try to manipulate every situation to their benefit and then position themselves to be the hero.
Cancers are too weak and tactless to be saving anyone. It’s just a front to promote themselves. Really they need people to constantly “protect” them from some unknown force. It sums up to this. Cancers are petty low-lives who act up, then need other people to protect them from their own deceitful actions. You’re fooling no one sweetheart;)
December 18th, 2011 at 7:42 am
@yada
Why suicide? If you wronged a pisces, it’s never too late to apologize. A pisces never forgets but is probably the most forgiving sign in the entire zodiac. My advice is apology sincerely. Remember the key word being sincerely. If you come with anything less, the pisces will pick up on it, and that will make things worse.
December 18th, 2011 at 11:40 pm
Cancers are the caring ones…but there is nothing worse than a middle aged single Cancer woman with no kids. These people are wretched manipulative beings. Just buy these women a drink, let them “save” you and call it a day.
December 20th, 2011 at 12:05 am
@Steve
There are no pisces involved. I’m talking about observations and comparison. I see a cancer like myself as a petty floater who’s unproductive to humanity and society where pisces and scorpios have mastered the eternal humanity “saveship”. (For a lack of better terms, I make up my own lol) I feel I can always learn from them and learn a great deal, but the fact that saving the world is not in my DEFAULT nature is where my anxiety comes. Suicide is an answer to me because it brings me closer to a place where I can be productive in my work to help humanity.
But now, on your tangent, since you brought it up (and since you probably have had horrendous scars from cancers, which I don’t blame you for) I do believe that sometimes we cancers can be bullies to pisces without truly knowing it. In that case, to your favor, it would be best to stick a knife in our stomachs and let us live through it for as long as possible. I know for a fact that such would emotionally heal pisces of cancer’s abrasive, unforgiving nature, even if they don’t want to admit it verbally on the surface. I mean this unsarcastically. It really would be good therapy for the pisces. I’m not condoning self-destructive violence to anyone. Just for myself in favor of a pisces.
Aye, then again, my having spoken about it would probably lessen the favor. :S
December 20th, 2011 at 1:33 am
Sorry, I must clarify. When I say “stick a knife in OUR stomach”, I mean “stick a knife in MY stomach.”
December 22nd, 2011 at 12:12 am
@Yada
I’m glad you clarified it from “our” to “my.” Because you don’t speak for the group, and frankly, every cancer I ever met has been a friend for life. Pisces (me) are some of the most understanding group of people on this Earth. Even when I know I’m being wronged, I try to see the other side of it and understand. I ask myself, what is intentional? what is malicious? could it have been different? If the majority answer is yes, then I can not allow a cancer (or anyone) get away with it.
I’m not sure how suicide would help humanity, MAYHAPS you can explain.
Also, I’m not following this whole knife-stomach thing. And you keep referring to cancers as bullies..why would you assume that a pisces or scorpio or any other sign won’t/can’t return the favor? Speaking as a pisces (not on behalf of) I am very patient. And I know that you can only right the wrong with an individual. Trying to pander to a group of pisces, scorpios, etc.. won’t do anything for you.
But you seem verbal enough, try apologizing..
February 23rd, 2012 at 9:38 pm
@ Steve -
“If you wronged a pisces, it’s never too late to apologize.”
What does this have to do with Yada’s point at hand?
