Cancer in astrology to one of the constellations of the zodiac, the crab. It's small and dim and doesn't look much like a crab, and is best noted among stargazers as the home of the [beehive cluster]?. It lies between Gemini to the west and Leo to the east, Lynx to the north and Canis Minor and Hydra to the south. In Greek mythology, this corresponds to a brave little crab who tried to stop Hercules from defeating the Hydra and was squished for his efforts. Because this sign has a name with negative connotations, for a while in the 1980s, people born under this sign were called Moon Children. |
