Cancers Want to Change the World

The man behind Tesla is one clever Cancer!

Billionaire Elon Musk likes to tackle tasks that others assume are impossible. Cut global warming, lower oil use, and get everyone into electric cars? No prob. His companies Tesla and SolarCity build electric cars and supply solar power to the country. Oh, and his Space X sends resupply vehicles to the Space Station. “Everyone has to work as hard as possible,” says Musk, “anything less than that seems crazy to me.”

This rock star entrepreneur has always stirred up the status quo. In 2013, he unveiled his “Hyperloop” idea for commuting the length of California in 30 minutes. And in 2014, he made his Tesla patents available to anyone. His goal? Simply to “have a big effect on the world.” Now, everyone knows his name. Done.

Best Water Workouts for Cancer

These aquatic fitness routines will tone and relax you…

You love to relax with friends and family, but you have to keep fit, too. A long hike with others on the beach lets you connect while you work out. You love the water, so you might like water aerobics. Deep end or shallow, outdoors or in, there are group workouts to suit every ability, without the pounding or joint stress of running or weightlifting. For a more solitary activity, swimming laps will build your endurance in a quiet, almost meditative environment. Add motivating tunes on a waterproof MP3 player to make the time fly.

Feel and Look Better, Cancer

Ways Cancers can tone up and boost their health…

If you see a muffin top that isn’t on your breakfast plate, it might be time to whittle your middle. The added benefit? Defining your waist not only sculpts your abs but also tones your butt, legs, and arms. You’ll ratchet up the fat burn without aggravating any back pain or tight hip flexors.

Try standing core exercises like lunges with a knee raise. Or seated oblique pulls. Sit on the floor, heels on the ground, knees slightly bent. Hold a towel taut at both ends overhead. Lean back, keeping your back flat. Maintaining a tight core, slowly pull the left end of the towel toward the floor while extending your left leg. Pause, return to start. Repeat on the other side. Do ten on each side.

The Sweetest Medicine, Cancer

Go ahead, indulge in this sweet and beneficial treat…

You could eat sweets all day long. Thank goodness nutrition experts have discovered the health benefits of chocolate—especially the dark variety—including antioxidants, reduced risk for stroke, lower blood pressure, and stress relief. What’s not to love?

A little goes a long way, however. Go ahead and splurge on the very best quality you can afford (there really is a difference). Find dark chocolate with unique and sometimes startling flavor combinations like chili pepper, sea salt, orange peel, ginger, or wasabi, and treat yourself to an ounce of “medicine” before bedtime!

Ideal Careers for Cancer

Your top picks for a happy, profitable work life…

You keep a welcoming, comfy house, but that doesn’t mean you want to stay there 24/7. You’re an enterprising cardinal sign, and as such, you like to be out and doing things in the world.

You want to make people feel welcome and well fed, so restaurants or hotels could be right up your alley. History fascinates you, so museums or antiques appraising are other options.

As emotionally understanding and empathetic as you are, Cancers make great doctors, psychologists, therapists, and counselors. Pet care, childcare, elder care, or teaching might offer you a fulfilling career as well.

Cancer Confidence

This unique star didn’t let her critics hold her back!

Actress and director Angelica Huston is her family’s third generation to win an Oscar. In her 20s, she posed for photographer Richard Avedon, modeled for Halston, and had her hair styled by Vidal Sassoon.

But her life hasn’t always been a walk in the park. Modeling agency executive Eileen Ford suggested she get a nose job. Avedon said her shoulders were too wide. And a theater critic said she had the “face of a gnu”!

But this tough-shelled Cancer turned negatives into plusses, working in over 70 movies and TV programs. “I knew I didn’t have the easiest face in the world,” she admits. “I was able to take advantage of a time when unusual became something to be coveted.”

Family Comes First for This Cancer

One of country’s hottest stars is a loveable family man…

Award-winning country singer Luke Bryan doesn’t let the adoration of thousands of screaming fans go to his head. “If I’m up there not taking myself too seriously and letting the girls watch me shake it a little bit,” he says, “that’s what makes the night fun.”

What really turns this Cancer celeb on is his wife, college sweetheart Caroline. How does he stay grounded? “The important thing is that we try to communicate as much as we can,” he says. “If we have a little hiccup with one another, we talk it out, figure it out, close the book on it, and move on down the road.” That’s good advice from this Crab!

Cancer Celebs Stand Out

This Cancer may be the best of her generation…

Meryl Streep isn’t known for one role, or even a select few. This American actress is often referred to as the best of her generation given her extensive success across a variety of film genres. She’s known for her versatility, earning her 3 Academy Awards with a record 21 nominations, among dozens of other accolades.

This Cancer has used her platform as a Hollywood star to bring about change, too. She has collaborated on the Time’s Up initiative, campaigned the Equal Rights Amendment to all members of Congress, and founded Writers Lab for women over forty seeking to develop their screenwriting. Catch her in three new films this year, or in her recent performances—Little Women or Big Little Lies!

Complex Cancer

Are your character contradictions a big turn-off?

You are full of contradictions, as evidenced by your symbol, Crab. All the tough-as-nails armor and impressive weaponry on the outside hide a gentle and tender emotional being. By the same token, your inner focus is counterbalanced by an enterprising spirit. You crave comfort and security yet harbor no small amount of ambition.

Sometimes you can be paralyzed by fear, doubt, and worry, which keep you from moving forward. Your challenge is to listen to your instincts and face your fears head-on. Take the initiative in whatever you want to accomplish!

Find Out Where You Stand with a Cancer

https://www.sunsigns.com/sign-stories/cancer/love-and-sex/find-out-where-you-stand-with-a-cancerClues that a Cancer is in a relationship for the long haul…

Cancer is quietly flirtatious, never forward. There will be roses and champagne over quiet meals, not wild cavorting at a beer bash. And the Crab probably won’t say exactly what’s on his or her mind either.

As such, it could be hard for a partner to know the score. Cautious Cancer will never plunge headlong into a commitment, but if he or she starts to communicate nonstop via all media like a Gemini (and toss in words like “we” and “us”), or spend lots of time with you like a Leo, you’ve nabbed your Crab.
