It usually takes a while to get to know a Cancerian and you may be surprised at the person she turns out to be once she 'brings out' her true self from under her protective shell and shows herself in her true light.

For she may, on first acquaintance, seem rather shy or retiring but those born under the sign of the Crab are extremely sensitive and highly emotional individuals and will value their friendships.

Intuitive, and often able to sense immediately whether or not she is going to 'get on with' a certain person, the Cancerian does however sometimes have a problem with imagining slights Or she might believe that people are talking about her behind her back and usually there's no concrete evidence to back this up - just hunches!
