If a person is born between 16th to 25th July, the Sun remains in the 1st Decan of Cancer ruled by Moon. It denotes an imaginative, fanciful, receptive and tenacious disposition. Fate is usually bound up with domestic ties, family interests and impressionable attachments. The native will exhibit a certain amount of timidity and reserve, which can produce morbid and doubtful associations.
If a person is born between 26th July to 5th August, the Sun remains in the 2nd Decan of Cancer ruled by Mars. It awakens the psychic and mystic tendencies, yet it also provides the native with a certain amount of control over his sensations. It increases the tenacity and denotes determination, love of power, ambition, and internal receptivity.

Cancer in Friendship
The Cancer is likely to send you frequent invitations to dinner or just to spend time at home, but they love it when you come over and complement them on their house, decorations and excellent cooking skills. They make loyal friends, so long as you do nothing to betray their trust. If you can handle a super emotional friend likely to call you up and cry into the phone for no reason, you will have a devoted buddy. As a friend of a Cancer, you will never need to worry about recording important events. Your favorite Cancer friend will always be there with a camera. A Cancer who is hurt hurts deeply and for a long time, though, so take care with the fragile emotions of your friend.
Cancer in Love
Where the romance is concerned, the Cancer enjoys being the initiator. Once love is in the air, Cancers will prove themselves devoted lovers, protective, affectionate and helpful and sympathetic. Romance here often involves a beautifully prepared meal, since those born under the sign of Cancer have an innate feel for the comforts of home and the joys they can bring. This love of physical and emotional well-being, which the Cancer must have, is a duty which a partner must help to fulfill. If this is not achieved, the Cancer might retreat into its shell. When Cancer is at its best, they can make their lover feel like the center of the universe, and might feel the same way themselves. Cancer's charm and magnetism are qualities which will prove most alluring to a lover and, coupled with their nurturing need, will prove hard to resist. The Cancer loves to feel secure, so a lover who remembers birthdays and other special days will be rewarded with tenderness and affection. If the Cancer tests a lover with occasional bouts of jealousy, it's only because a stronger emotional response is craved.
Cancer as Child
Cancer children are lovable for they are devoted to their home and family. They love stories, for they have vivid imaginations. There is no need to punish them severely, since they do not like to be out of harmony with their parents. They may have moods of irritability, but try not to snap back. The hurt inflicted on them by others is brooded about again and again and hinders their development. Cancer children do not want to see Mother go anywhere without them. As these children grow, they may feel a strong need to nurture others. They should have dolls, pets, plants, and, if possible, smaller children with them. They are very caring and needs protection and love.
Cancer as Parent
Cancer as Parents have difficulty in realizing when to loosen parental protection to that of parental guidance only. Even when their children are grown, they still have a strong desire to advise and protect them. They firmly believe in family unity and work to establish it. This can create problems and the child can either become too much dependent on parents even in adulthood or can become a rebel. A Cancer parent need to strike a balance possessive nature with giving some independence to the child.

Cancer is the fourth sign of the Zodiac. It is the sign of the crab. It runs from July 17th through Aug 16th of any year. It is a Cardinal, water sign. It is symbolised by the mother. It governs the heart and the chest.
The planetary Ruler for Cancer is the Moon. The gemstone for Cancer is the pearl.
The sign of cancer, or "The Crab," was so called by the ancients because the stars in this region of Zodiac are look like a crab. People born in this part of the are painstaking and industrious in all they undertake, but are inclined to have extremes of good and bad fortune. In gambling in shares they generally lose, whereas in legitimate business work they can be most successful. They possess, however, as a rule, a keen desire for speculation and often lose business they have built up after years of hard work by this tendency in their nature.
Like the symbol of "The crab" they often advance and retreat both in work and ideas; they may reach a certain point in some definite plan or career and then surprise everyone by stopping or turning back at the most critical moment.
As a rule they have great "ups and downs" in money matters, unless they have conquered, their speculative tendency early in life and accumulated wealth and put it aside for the emergencies that must sooner or later crop up in their careers.
People born in this part of the year often reach very high exalted positions or gain some pinnacle of fame where they cannot escape the dazzling light of publicity. In their home lives, however, they usually go through a great deal of trouble and are seldom surrounded by great happiness, no matter how successful they may appear in the eyes of the world.
As a rule they are 'dreamers' of large plans. They evolve big ideals for the welfare of others, but if they meet opposition and criticism they suffer keenly, but silently, and are inclined to become cynical and shut themselves up in their own immediate surroundings.
Although of a deeply affectionate disposition, they are seldom demonstrative and are wrongly considered cold and unemotional. They have large imagination and often make excellent artists, writers, composers, or dramatists and under some dates in this Zodiacal Sign, great organizers in industry or business.
Generally they have splendid memories and store up knowledge of all kinds in their mind. They often make excellent psychics or become deeply interested in occult studies or in religion, or in some unusual philosophy of life. They have deep love for what they call "their own people, " for family customs and for tradition.
