This is a very emotionally motivated area of the zodiac. Cancerians feel a great deal.
They feel so much that they want to protect themselves and others from too much chaos and
set up somewhere safe - a home. Here all can snuggle up together and be protected from the
darker side of the world outside. Cancer is the best homemaker sign of the zodiac, better,
even, than Taurus.
Cancer often possesses a fantastic memory. While there are many obvious bonuses to this,
there is also the drawback of being a person who remembers everything hurtful that ever
happened. Cancer can be a sign that clings to pain like a limpet, it's obviously important
that these people learn to let go of negative emotions. Cancerians can become very twisted
and seemingly unfeeling through negative conditioning; Henry VIII, for example, wasn't the
most compassionate ruler of all time.
These are the biggest and best nurturers in the zodiac; here to help and soothe.
They have an overwhelming ability in, and need for, intimacy. This - and a tendency to
sentimentality - scares less touchy-feely
sorts off. Cancers often love cookery, gardening and seem to feel, somehow, that everyone -
everything, even - is a kid to be looked after and brought up.
Strong memory often translates to a love of history. Cancerians often work with the past
in some way; you can find them in museums, public record offices, at archeological digs.
They can be the most compassionate, empathising, helpful, wonderful people in
the world, so they make great doctors, vets and therapists. They do need to sort out their pasts, put things in their place and know deep
within themselves that there is a world out there. If all the kinks and hurts have
been sorted, a Cancer person has a huge amount to offer and a great deal of love to give.

Example Chart: Princess Diana
 in 
Diana Spencer stepped into the limelight as an incredibly shy teenager working in a children's nursery. She went on to become a famous wife, mother, divorcee and campaigner.
Post the meltdown of her marriage, related through tears and a very Cancerian raking over of her relationship with Charles, Diana's desire was to be recognised as 'The Queen of Hearts' - she would never be actual Queen. Indeed, after her death it came to light that she had privately given a great deal of emotional support to many people in difficulty through kind letters and private visits.
