The soft-centred Crab is generous to loved ones, but is something of a conservative worker.

Cancers take responsibility and leadership very seriously and they will quietly beaver away with their money making skills - which are considerable if they can do it privately and without being pushed round too much.

They are expert at teasing out what other people want - and what they need for themselves. The first of the water signs is an accumulator and a shrewd businessman.

Cancers tend to shy away from feelings in the workplace unless they feel very secure.

But they are always aware of how other people see then and can get quite low if there is any disapproval around.

Then they tend not to be as productive as they could be and their famed tenacity can go by the board.

The Crabs expect others to be as hardworking as themselves. Slowly and surely is the watchword for their money making skills and no one will ever know what emotional stress they take on as a result.

They're not even sure themselves most of the time. These naturally compassionate people need regular time off so that they can recuperate in order to tackle another week's work issues.
