__noeditsection__ “I was born under the sign of cancer, turns out I wasn't the only growth emerging from my mother's cervix...” ~ Noel Coward Cancer is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac.

abstract
  • __noeditsection__ “I was born under the sign of cancer, turns out I wasn't the only growth emerging from my mother's cervix...” ~ Noel Coward Cancer is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac. It is the fourth astrological sign, lying between Gemini to the West and Leo to the East. The name comes from the Latin word for "malignant tumour" and it is commonly represented as such in art and folklore. Its glyph is File:Cancerglyph.png, which symbolises the transformation of ordinary cells into abnormal ones. The sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. As well as this, Cancer has displayed uncontrolled growth over the years, and has since gone on to "infect" many of the other star signs around it. Aries the Ram has been given six months at best, and Taurus' balls are now the size of galactic nuclei. Cancer the constellation is unrelated to Cancer the crab, a malign form of crustacean that accounts for 13% of all deaths in human society.
