(no subject)
i came across this on a friend of a friend's myspace "about me section.
since, i am a cancer, i was intrigued.
"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 it can range from the timid, dull, shy and withdrawn to the most brilliant, and famous. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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 are easily corrupted and, because they are convincing romanticizers, can make successful confident tricksters."
i'm not sure about some of the points.
i'm not as easily influenced or corrupted and have a pretty impenetrable backbone.
also, i wouldn't say i "sway with the emotion of the moment."
while romantic, i find a lot of practicality in life, especially in how to solve issues.
and unfortunately, i wouldn't know how to even start being devious or a "trickster."
but yeah.
most of it...
to a "t."
