When the clock strikes midnight on June 20th, acertain water signcomes to life.
If someone is a real crybaby, they probably have Cancer somewhere in their chart.
The difference is in the decan
Differences in astrological signs come down todecans.
Picture the horoscope wheel: 12 different signs, arranged like the numbers on a clock face.
Since the wheel is a circle, it contains 360 degrees.
These 10-degree parts are called decans (via Tarot.com).
Super easy, right?
If that all seems a little complicated, decans, at least, are pretty straightforward.
Each decan is ruled by a different planet.
However, different planets can pop up on the chart between degrees 11 through 20 or 21 through 30.
Ifthathappens, the second and third decans are ruled by different planets, and, therefore, different signs.
How does that affect a sign?
Ruled by the moon, they’re as Cancer-y as can be.
Conversely, July Cancers (minus those born on the first) are either second or third decans.
Born between July 2nd and July 12th, second-decan Cancers share the intense, secretive natures of Scorpios.
Third-decan Cancers are linked to Pisces and their ruling planet, Neptune.
The biggest similarity between Pisces and Cancers are their sometimes-uncontrollable moods.
Third-decan Cancers, therefore, are perhaps the most emotional versions of an already emotional sign!
If you’re a Cancer, don’t forget your decans!
You may discover that certain aspects of your personality make more sense than ever.
