Cancer is the fourth astrological sign which is also associated with the constellation Cancer. It generally transits the Sun between June 22 and July 22, under the tropical zodiac. The symbol of the crab is based on the Karkinos, a giant crab that harassed Heracles during his fight with the Hydra. Places that Cancer is associated with are the sea, rivers, brooks, wells, wash-houses, marsh grounds, and trenches. Cancerians are said to be people of sensation and feeling. They tend to go by their own intuition as opposed to reasonable advice. They can be emotional but are usually very caring.
The story of Cancer the Crab is said to be connected to Hercules. Some storytellers say that during Hercules' fight with Lernaean Hydra, Hera sent a crab to snap at Hercules' toes because Hera had sworn to kill Hercules. Hercules was able to kill the crab by smashing its shell with his foot. As a reward for its efforts serving her, Hera placed the crab in the sky and it became Cancer.
