The cancer zodiac’s sign is a crab, which is related to the water element just like Pisces and Scorpio. Water element individuals are known to have a deeper emotional depth and be heavily influenced by their hearts on a daily basis. 

Apart from that, those with the Cancer zodiac sign are also:

• Very obvious about their thoughts and emotions. Usually they don’t hide their feelings, even if they’re feeling irritated or under the weather. 
• When facing tough situations, Cancerians can sometimes retreat into their ‘shells’ just like a crab. This means they can self isolate until they feel comfortable enough to emerge and interact with you again. 
• Cancerians do not like the spotlight and they are, in general, introverts rather than extroverts. This means they prefer the company of a few close friends rather than a big gathering with strangers.
• People born under the cancer sign don’t find it easy to open up to strangers and can be rather reserved. However, over time they will begin to trust you enough to reveal their kind, gentle and loyal sides.
• Cancerians are very sensitive to the atmosphere in a room, and can read the tone and mood of those around them fairly well. Thus, they’re pretty wise when making decisions on how to act and react around people.
