(From http://www.findyourfate.com/astrology/Cancer.htm)<BR> The association of Cancer with water dates back to the dawn of astrology. The image of the crab is Babylonian in origin. In Egypt, this sign was represented by two turtles.The later placement of the crab within the zodiac is related to a minor chapter in Greek mythology.. Hercules wanted to kill the many-headed Hydra, a great sea monster, living in the marshes of Lerna. Hera, the goddess who sent Hercules to these tasks, often encouraged his failure.
During his battle with Hydra, Hera commanded a nearby crab to attack Hercules and draw his attention away. Without question, the little creature took a claw-hold of a conspicuous toe. This act cost the crab its life, for Hercules abruptly crushed him. Impressed by its loyalty and courage, Hera placed the crab's image in the night sky.
The Hydra had been a favorite to Hera, and was equally honored by the goddess. Cancer itself, is not a brilliant constellation. However, at its heart is a lovely star cluster, sometimes known in astronomy as the Beehive. The name derives from the appearance of a swarm of stars in a dance of activity.

lol, well, i'm not a big fan of cooking, but one thing i can whip up real nicely are grilled cheese sandwiches 🙂 And I'm all about microwaving the soup. You should have yourself a grilled cheese sandwich, they're heaven.
American Sharp Cheddar, but I've made some to die for Swiss concoctions before too. Cheese is so great...you see the whole key to the perfect grilled cheese sandwich is to make sure that the ratio of butter to cheese is perfect. 😛

what type of security do you mean? Is it monetary or something else?
Sounds like those seeking "security" are lacking confidence in themselves and/or are relying on someone else to get them thru life? I hear this alot from Cancer natives that "

Ok here is my question. When you love a Cancer and you finally decide to get up enough nerve to tell that person you love them, and they can feel your love for them (call it intuition), even if they are not in love with you, will they at least appreciate
