Cancer Health
♋ 21 June - 22 July · Water · Cardinal · ruled by the Moon
Body parts ruled and common complaints.
Because Cancer is ruled by the Moon, you have a nature with a great many emotional swings, and you fall ill easily. Cancer - the sign of the zodiac most prone to psychosomatic complaints - is under the Moon''s influence. Even when there is nothing physically wrong with them, they wear out the doctor''s doorstep. For that reason you should pay attention to the balance of fluids in your body. When you do not drink enough water, the fluid inside your cells goes out of balance and irregularities in the reproductive organs can follow. When the substances in the blood are not properly oxidised, you fall ill easily, and in that state you feel unhappy and depressed. People whose lunar aspects are difficult have trouble with their stomachs. Cancer people are more sensitive to medication than anyone else, so you should not take medicines you do not know. Because Cancer people are fond of rich food, they put on weight very easily. It is well known that they are not especially active, so if you live a life with no exercise in it, you will fall prey to metabolic complaints far more easily as you age. Stomach ulcers, problems with the duodenum and complaints involving the mammary glands are the most likely.
