15 Curious Facts about the Cancer Zodiac Sign
Cancers are summer people born between June 21st and July 22nd. And, much like the summer, they are bright, and warm, and you miss them when they’re not around! The crab in the Zodiac represents them, but that doesn’t mean they’re always crabby to be around! Let’s look at some fun facts about the Cancer star sign to show you why you need a few summer people in your life.
1. Cancers can close up pretty easily.
As water signs, Cancers can be a little clammy! They tend to close up and retreat when they need to. So, if you get a Cancer to open up, you must be pretty special!
2. They’re very creative and like making things to get them through the day.
Cancers are known for being very creative. They often use their creativity as an outlet – meaning you’ll likely come across a few successful creators born between June and July.
3. Cancers are very ambitious, too.
Cancers are fantastic artists, be it in music, art, or other outlets. And, they are also very ambitious! So, they tend to have big dreams for themselves and everything they create – and again, it’s why you’ll find plenty of big stars are Cancers.
4. They’re great providers for their loved ones.
Cancers enjoy having a good home life, and they like being the providers. They enjoy providing for and caring for those they love – meaning if they offer you help and support, be willing to accept it!
5. They follow their hearts at all costs.
Cancers have a tendency to follow their hearts, sometimes even a little impulsively. They often feel so strongly that they’ll follow those feelings before thinking things through. They need people around them to ground them in the real world sometimes!
6. Cancers get on well with Pisces, but not so much with Capricorns.
Cancers tend to bond really well with Pisces. As another water sign, Pisces and Cancers tend to really understand each other, and Scorpios apply here, too. However, they tend to clash a bit with Capricorns, so they’re best when clear of each other!
7. You can’t tell them what to do!
Cancers often have their own plans. And, even if they don’t, you can’t tell them what to do. They will always follow their own paths and won’t pay much mind to what you have to say about it!
8. There are plenty of celebrity Cancers.
Thankfully, the world has been gifted with plenty of talented Cancers! Here are some of the most famous Cancers we’re happy to have around: Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Ariana Grande, Sylvester Stallone, Kevin Hart, and many more!
9. You’re likely to get forgiven by a Cancer.
Cancers are generally very forgiving people. They believe in letting the past lie, and moving forward. That doesn’t mean they forgive everything – so try not to push them to their limits.
10. They are highly sensitive people.
Cancers are very sensitive, and they feel things very deeply. However, that does not mean that they’re weak in any way! In fact, they are very resilient, and it takes quite a lot to get them down!
11. They’re homebodies.
Cancers can be very sociable people. However, they like staying at home, and being comfortable with the same group of people they’re used to. So, if you like chilling out at home, Cancers are perfect companions!
12. They can be shy, too.
It can be difficult to get Cancers to be bold and open up. They can be pretty shy, and it takes someone they really trust to bring out their bolder side!
13. They’re very stable.
Cancers are great partners and can make great parents. They’re incredibly stable people, love taking care of others, and are very protective of those they love.

I am very artistic and protective like it described. My friend used to call me Luna so its funny to know that Cancer’s planet is the moon!
I am a cancer. The heartbreak thing is so true tbh. I’ve dated a Pisces and a Scorpio and a libra and almost a Aries but the Aries dude we were really close tbh so yea. I’m really caring and protective over anybody so that is really true. I do get emotional but not over anything tho just the most upsetting things like the time my Pisces bf wanted to break up but he didn’t know how to tell me. Anyway yea my life is pretty screwed.
