Cancer! About your sign...
The Cancerian character is the least clear-cut of all those associated with the signs of the zodiac. It can range from the timid, dull, shy and withdrawn to the most brilliant, and famous Cancerians are to be found through the whole range of human activity. It is a fundamentally conservative and home-loving nature, appreciating the nest like quality of a secure base to which the male can retire when he needs a respite from the stresses of life, and in which the Cancerian woman can exercise her strong maternal instincts. The latter tends to like and to have a large family. `Nest like' is an appropriate adjective for the Cancerian home, for its inhabitants tend to favor the dark, mysterious but comfortable type of house which has something of the air of a den about it, a place which belongs to the family rather than existing as a showcase to impress visitors.
That is not to say that the Cancerian is unsociable, just that for them there is a time to socialize and a time to be solitary, and this is part of the apparent contradiction in their nature. Outwardly they can appear formidable - thick-skinned, unemotional, uncompromising, obstinately tenacious, purposeful, energetic, shrewd, intuitive and wise, sometimes with a philosophical profundity of thought verging on inspiration. Their intimates, however, may see a very different character, one with a sympathetic and kindly sensitivity to other people, especially those they love. They are able to identify with the situations of others because of the keenness of their imaginations. They are often over-imaginative and prone to fantasy, sometimes trying to shape their lives to fit some romantic ideal. They are appreciative of art and literature, and especially of drama, where the spectacle and ebb and flow of action and feeling particularly excite them. They may themselves possess considerable literary, artistic or oratorical talent. Their sharp ears and talent for mimicry can sometimes give them success on the stage, though their tendency to be emotional may make them overact. Interestingly - because they give the impression of being down-to-earth - they are often fascinated by the occult and are more open to psychic influence than the average. If they can reconcile the personal conflict of their urge to be outgoing with the reserve that causes them to withdraw into themselves, then at best they can inspire a generation, especially the youthful part of it, by their idealism. A job in which they can express this, and in which they can do well, would be as a leader in a youth organization.
In their personal relationships they are mentally a mixture of toughness and softness, often emotional and romantic to the point of sentimentality in their fantasies; but in real life and in marriage, their loving is not so sentimental but tenaciously loyal. Even if they have affairs (and they may do so, for the male in particular is open to sensual stimulation), their first loyalty remains to spouse and family, of whom they regard themselves as the protector. Both the
Cancerian man and woman love unreservedly, giving much and asking little in return - in fact, one of the most important lessons they have to learn is how to receive gracefully. They are too easily influenced by those they love and admire, and swayed by the emotion of the moment. They are also loyal friends, the negative side of their faithfulness being clannishness, the narrow patriotism of "my country right or wrong"; and closing ranks in suspicion and coldness toward outsiders.
Cancerians have a retentive memory, particularly for emotionally laden events which they can recall in detail for years afterwards. they are strongly governed by childhood memories and since they live intensely in the past in memory and in the future in imagination, a chance meeting with someone for whom they had an unrequited love, even if they thought they had conquered the feeling, will easily rouse the emotion all over again.
The Cancerian has many potential faults. They can be untidy, sulky, devious, moody, inclined to self-pity because of an inferiority complex, brood on insults (very often imagined), yet are easily flattered. They can be tactless and difficult yet, because they are normally ambitious, they will curry favor by floating with majority opinions, outlooks and fashions of the day. As a result they often change their opinions and loyalties and, indeed, their occupations, and lack stability. They are easily corrupted and, because they are convincing romanticizers, can make successful confidence tricksters. Their romanticism in another sense make them ardent supporters of causes, for example a football team with whose heroes they can identify in a world of fantasy.
Their abilities fit the Cancerian for a wide range of occupations. As they are interested in what people are thinking and able to judge what they can safely be told, they can be good journalists, writers or politicians, though in this last capacity they are more likely to remain in the background rather than attain prominent positions of power. They may, indeed, change their party affiliations. They can serve in other departments of public affairs, especially those which involve looking after others, for example in any kind of service from welfare and nursing to catering - their own love of comfort and good living makes the Cancerian an excellent chef or housekeeper. They sometimes have a penchant for trade or business and are often successful as a captain of industry. This is because they are excellent organizers with a good sense of value and economy which they may combine with a flair for inventiveness and originality. The romantic side of their natures make them enjoy grubbing about in places where exciting discoveries may be made (old stamp collections in attics, etc.), and if they can do this professionally as a secondhand dealer or specialist in antiques, they will be happy. More common occupations which suit some subjects of Cancer are real estate broker, gardener and sailor.
Physically they are average to below average in height, with a fleshy body and short legs in comparison with the rest of them. Their hair is usually brown, their faces round, their complexions pale, their foreheads prominent, their eyes small and blue or gray in color, their noses short, perhaps upturned, and their mouths full. They sometimes walk clumsily.
Possible Health Concerns...
Cancer governs the chest, breasts, elbows, stomach and digestion, womb and female reproductive organs. Cancer, which can affect any part of the body, is sometimes said to have taken its name from this sign, which can therefore afflict its subjects with imperfections anywhere. This is incorrect, however, the derivation of cancer being the Latin cancer meaning gangrene as well as crab. nevertheless, Cancerians are said to be liable to breast cancer and to suffer from pleurisy, dropsy, piles and varicose veins. The excitability mentioned above can lead to weak digestion, gastritis and other stomach ills, and there is a tendency to coughs and weakness of vision.

Magickal Expressions

Summer Solstice
For centuries we've gathered, driven by faith and the wheel. The day stretches long and full of power from the sun's great warmth that we feel.
The fairies emerge wearing garlands of lilac, herbs, and rose. We welcome them, but are vigilant against the dark energies who lurk so close.
We celebrate life, renewal and birth, and await the epic fight. The Oak King fades to the victorious Holly King. A chapter will end this night.
When darkness falls, we light the fires, reaching far and high. Their light cuts the night, and lights up our faces as we raise them up to the sky.
Couples join hands, and jump through the flames, forging their lives with hope. How high can they jump? Their crops will show how as they cover the farmstead slopes.
The circle is cast, the verses are read, some sing, some dance, some pray.
United are we who gather here to celebrate this Magickal Day.

Ask a Witch
Q:
Dear Lady Ocalat,
What are the main Sabbats of the eight in Wicca.
Indigo Sapphire
A:That would be Beltane and Samhain. Four of the Sabbats are seasonal... relating to the sun, and the other four are Celtic in nature. For most witches, these two Sabbats hold the most prominence, although as a witch.... all of the Sabbats are to be recognized and honored in the particular ways of your tradition.

Notes on the Sabbat
Beltane
May 1st
Beltane is the height of spring. It is a time of bliss and jubilee, every plant is in bloom, and the air is thick with a heady perfume.
In the story of the Wheel of the Year, the Goddess has become the May Queen, and the God, the May King. Their union brings fertility to the land and animals. In the old days, many children were conceived on Beltane night.
The veil is thin again and like Samhain, Beltane is a great time for divination. It is said that to wash your face with the morning dew of May Day will keep your skin smooth and youthful.
Many modern Witches celebrate Beltane with a dance around a ribboned Maypole crowned with wreaths of spring flowers. At dusk, a bonfire is lit. Celebrants jump the flames to prove their vitality. Drinking, feasting and merry making goes long into the night, and usually ends with lovers sewing their own seeds.
For a less elaborate celebration, Beltane is also a great time to go camping. It is also customary to gather May flowers in paper baskets and hang them on the door knobs of your friends and neighbors as a blessing of the Goddess ... be sure and keep your identity a secret ... that is part of the fun!
As the last of the three spring festivals of the year, Beltane is a time to focus on the growing season and celebrate life. Wear bright colors, savour sweet fruits, dance and embrace the joy of the season.
DECORATION IDEAS
The green of the Goddess and nature is the central color of Beltane. Flower, leaves and ribbons dominate the whimsical theme of Beltane. See the Ostara section for some ideas on how to create some floral decorations.
For me, though, now that it is warm enough for the first insects of the season to appear, I like to add butterflies to my decorations. May is always the time that I break out those cute little butterfly clips for my hair. Click Here - to see how to make your own tiny butterflies that can be added to your garlands of May flowers.
