Astrology Cancer Man

Characteristics for Astrology Cancer Man

Characteristics found in the astrology Cancer man are mostly the same ones found in Cancer women, but they may manifest themselves differently. Cancer men still tend to value home life above all else and want to nurture their loved ones. That makes them strong protectors and providers.

If you're looking for a sensitive man, a Cancer may be just what you need. Just remember that being more attuned to the feelings of others isn't a sign of weakness; in fact, it can be a virtue. The typical Cancer man is a caring, supportive individual who wants those around him to be happy. A word of caution, though: He can be moody.

That infamous Cancer shell can be hard to penetrate even if a Cancer man wears his heart on his sleeve. Cancer men are sensitive but guarded.

Here are some other characteristics you may see in Cancer men:

• Loyalty is a strong characteristic in Cancer men.

• Dependability is another admirable trait.

• Adaptability is another plus in the makeup of Cancer men, even though they prefer to make their own changes. Think of the way water easily fills in the cracks and crevices in whatever container it's in. Keep in mind too, that it can also erode land. Cancer men are strong enough to make their own changes, but easily able to change if outside forces make it necessary.

• These men are Supportive, especially of friends and family.

• Cancer men make great listeners and typically give equally fantastic advice.

• These men are intuitive and receptive to others' feelings, which could contribute to the moodiness listed above— they're picking up "feelings" from everyone!

• They are open-minded and able to relate to all types of people, even though Cancers aren't the biggest social animals of the zodiac.

• Sentimentality is another hallmark of Cancer men, a trait they may express by collecting memories in the form of scrapbooks or antiques.

• Self-absorption tends to be a major flaw in Cancer men, so you may find them focused on their own little world. You'll have to vie for attention if you're interested, but it's well worth the effort.

Cancers tend to be a collection of contradictions; the men are no exception. They're kind and nurturing, yet self-absorbed. They're adaptable, but not too fond of change. They're loyal and devoted, but so moody they'll make their friends and family wonder what these men really thinks of them sometimes.

Compatibilities

Cancer men pair well with the following signs:

• Virgo
• Taurus
• Scorpio
• Capricorn
• Pisces

So, what are Cancer men like when they're in love? They're charming with their genuine smiles and willingness to do anything for others, especially if you have their heart. Once they find "The One", it's fairly easy for them to settle down. Typically, these guys are the epitome of family men, ready to protect their families at any cost. They're also very good at snuggling on the couch.

The Cancer man is the guy who wears his heart on his sleeve. That may catch your eye, soften your heart and make you want to give him your undivided attention, but don't. He wants to see his significant other maintain a sense of independence, not give up outside life to dote on him. Stay balanced!

If astrology's Cancer man is your ideal mate, seduce him with your cooking! So in summary, to attract a Cancer, you'll need a life of your own and some mad kitchen skills.

Great Job Matches for Cancer Men

Cancer men, just like Cancer women, will find themselves drawn to creative fields. Writing, music, art and cooking are all fantastic career matches for traditional Cancerians. That's because their personalities tend to be made up of brilliant mixes of intuition, inspiration and dedication to the things they love.

Although Cancer men have a creative flair, that does not mean they aren't business-minded. They tend to thrive in business ventures. This is partially due to their perseverance, partially due to their intuitive nature and partially to do with their ability to interact well with all types of people. They know what their clients need or want before they do. Perhaps the key to their happiness is finding a career that blends their creative side with their business side.

Security is important to Cancer men, and that will fuel their drive to succeed in business. They realize the need for money in order to be secure in their own lives as well as to take care of those around them. Cancer men are providers in every sense of the word.

The Bottom Line

Cancer men do tend to be moody and self-absorbed, but they're also loyal and motivated to take care of their families. They're walking contradictions, but once you make it through their shells and into their hearts, you're there to stay.
