We are now in Cancer, and honestly I feel bad for people that have to say “I am a Cancer.” It just sounds bad, you know? On top of that, Cancer is known as “the crab,” so they can’t even refer to themselves by their symbol. But Cancers have a lot going for them. Their birthdays are in the summer (if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, sorry Southern peeps), they are known to be intuitive and emotional. Although they can be mysterious, once you are in their circle, you’ve made a solid friend.
If you or someone you love is a Cancer singer/songwriter, I wrote an in-depth post about it here. It goes over what it means to be a Capricorn musician and how to use your sign to get ahead in the music industry.
Let’s celebrate Cancers by checking out their music!
