Cancer (Karka Rashi)

The ruling planet of Cancer is the Moon, making it a water sign, and causing a restless mind. They lack mental restraint, are emotional, and quickly swept away by feelings. They have a religious inclination and prefer aquatic things. Cancerians are generally attractive with an imaginative, sociable nature, and a love for arts, music, literature, and beauty. They adapt to situations, are honest, and compassionate. They often have multiple sources of income and a tendency towards spirituality. As a water and cardinal sign, Cancer natives are beautiful with an attractive face and medium height. If the Moon and Mars are well-placed, they are intelligent, sensitive, imaginative, skillful in adapting to circumstances, and sociable. If the Moon is malefic, they become irritable and easily influenced by new environments. They enjoy nature, art, music, and literature, and can easily understand others’ emotions.
