Body Astrology: Cancer

In body astrology, each zodiac sign is associated with different parts of the body. Cancer is linked with the chest, breasts, stomach, digestive system, and the womb. These areas reflect Cancer’s nurturing and protective qualities, as they are integral to nourishment and emotional security. Cancerian's make great nurturing leaders but need to remember to nurture themselves as well as everyone around them. ✨
