In this series, we are going to take a look at the animals that correspond with the archetype of each sign. First, we are going to present a few general characteristics of every sign and then we are going to list the animals that match the description. For each sign, we are going to present either specific animals that correspond with the archetype or a group of animals that share particular characteristics of the zodiac sign.
Cancer is the nurturer of the zodiac. This sign is known for its warm, loving nature as well as its strong maternal and protective instincts. So which animals share this energy?
CRAB
This animal is the traditional representative of Cancer and it is easy to see why: they have a hard outer shell that is meant to protect their tender, gooey insides. Cancers are the same.
EMPEROR PENGUIN
They will sit on an egg until it hatches, keep the baby warm and starve for months in order to take care of their offspring. They are the ultimate animal parents. Similar to Cancer, they have a strong maternal instinct and they are prepared to make any sacrifice necessary.
THE HOMEOWNERS
This group contains basically any animal that isn't willing to leave their house at any point. A few examples: shelled snails, hermit crabs, turtles and armadillos. Like Cancer, these animals understand the importance of a home and the impulse to never be away from it.
THE CUTIES
This group includes any animal that is unbearably cute and endearing. A few examples would be piglets, teacup poodles and chicks. They are cuddly and snuggly, just like Cancer.
