People born under the Zodiac Sign Cancer (Karka), the fourth Sign in the Zodiac calendar, love their homes - their roots, their nests. The most empathetic Sign of the entire Zodiac, the Cancer is represented by the symbol Crab. Sensitive and emotional, the Cancer take great pleasure in the comforts of home and family, and are at their best when all is peaceful at the domestic front.

Nurturers by their basic nature, Cancers possess a deep maternal instinct and are intuitive and perceptive by nature. They are likely to have large families, providing for others, protecting and making a nest wherever they go. Travelling is something that interests them, but the urge to travel far and wide is often quelled since their home is where they love to dwell. In fact, a hearty picnic in the park is heaven on earth to most Crabs. The Cancer are traditional. They prize their family history, and are lovers of communal activities. Many of them also tend to be patriotic, waving the national flag, whenever possible.

They, more often than not, may also appear extremely moody, shy and baby-like to many.

Artistic and creative, Cancers, though can be very possessive. Often they get on others' nerves for holding on to everything including wealth and every word that was ever said to them!

Only a truly sensitive soul would manage to notice that this seemingly rude behaviour is a disguise, a clever means to hide complexes and insecurities. Paradoxically and on most occasions the Cancer, however, can be admirable, kind, generous, understanding and gracious, especially if all is well in their worlds.
