Cancer Tiger

Your personality is strongly shaped by a striking inner conflict: the pull toward safety and comfort versus the hunger for adventure. You'll always waver between these two sides, never quite sure which way to go. Sometimes, just to break the deadlock, you lash out or get provocative -- which only exposes you to blows you're not equipped to handle.

Your family life and your parents leave a deep, lasting imprint on you. There's often a pattern of struggling with nourishment or self-care in childhood, especially if your mother was anxious or overprotective. You're intensely attached to your loved ones even as you try to break free from them. Family matters have an ongoing tendency to tangle up your life in complicated ways.

At work, you're an anxious and somewhat unpredictable presence. Your sensitivity makes you vulnerable and can create friction with colleagues or bosses. You can be genuinely ambitious and achieve real success, but often only after a rough start. Developing more objectivity would help you get the most from your strong creative and innovative instincts.

In love, you're prone to sudden reversals. Your romantic life is generally on the complicated side. To find real emotional happiness, you need to start by looking honestly inward and figuring out exactly what you want.
