Cancer June 22 - July 23
LifeStyle Talk
Beautiful You
The mirror is not your best friend. You care for
the world, and a beauty routine only binds you down.
But your eyes and cheekbones are a special gift, so
you need no work there! You are the perfect picture
of the nurturer, with your sparkling eyes and womanly
proportions.
From the outside, you would pass off easily for
Mother Hen. Underneath, you're an emotional and sexual
woman. You do have your moments of celebration, when
you want to let your hair down. When you want to indulge, you spend hours in the bathtub, scrubbing away. That is when your bath oils make a rare appearance.
You prefer the classics -- pearls, pastel colours
and tried-and-true products.
Your beauty comes from your generosity, your sympathetic
nature and your realistic self-image. It's when you
open your arms to give the world a warm hug that you
become an absolute knockout.
You, the fitness freak
You are the most home-oriented amongst all zodiac
signs. You prefer to stay in and work out to videos
than go to the gym. You excel in pulling people together
to form teams for sports and games. You're the cheerleader
who stays away from the spotlight and quietly roots
your team to victory. Fitness can easily be achieved
when you're part of a team. Things like neighbourhood
basketball teams will do wonders for your sense of
community. Watch out for kidney problems, though.
Be certain to drink a lot of water when there's danger
of dehydration.
Fashionably yours
You have probably had that old night suit for years,
yet you shudder at the thought of letting it go. Clothing
is as important to you as family. Comfort is your
watchword, and you would not follow a trend for even
a million dollars. But you don't turn up a frump.
Even your most basic clothes have a tinge of femininity.
You frown on a big budget for your wardrobe. One
of the only things you spend haphazardly on is lingerie,
from sports bras to sultry nighties. A favourite outfit
might be a long, flowing skirt with a v-neck sweater
and a raincoat. On warm days, beachwear and wraps
with sandals are a must. You have a weakness for pretty
jewellery. Pearls are an eternal favourite. You probably
don't go much for makeup, unless it is soft and easy
to manage. You prefer to literally let your hair down.
On busy or windy days, you may only pause to pull
it back in a loose knot. You dress for comfort, and
don't give in to new trends. But you can be quite
a looker!
Travel and you
Armchair travel may have been invented for you,
as you prefer to stay cozy and warm in your trusted
shells. You are unadventurous and are content to stay
at home, or you'll generally go somewhere close to
home when you do venture out. And catch you going
alone -- the entire family travels with you to provide
the emotional security. Yep, there's no place like
home to you, so any journey must recreate home and
hearth as much as possible. Although nurturing souls,
you can also be stubborn, so it's you who'll set the
agenda when travelling. You're not likely to spend
a lot of money on a trip, either, as you know the
value of a buck.
Your taste buds
Cancer is the homebody that, as a Water Sign, is
looking for comfort food. The Crab is an excellent
cook, and spending time in the kitchen to make sure
that a dish turns out right is no problem. No wonder
you have a good collection of cookery books.
