Enjoy and if you're a Cancer, let me know in the comments if you have some suggestions to add!
1 - For Cancer the Manifestor
A water sign ruled by the Moon, Cancer often has a well-developed intuition. But, staying organized is another matter.
Over the years, I tried many, many types of daily planners, but this one is very different. It's for someone who believes in the Law of Attraction!
It keeps you focused on the goals you want to achieve - or, manifest! - over the next 3 months. There are many helpful prompts to help you focus on what's important, and the journal is designed to help you on a manifestation journey.
I love the prompts to reflect on the week, such as "Celebrate my 5 top achievements", "What did I learn this week?", "Distractions/mental blockers/fears", "How will I improve", and that planning for the week ahead includes "How will I make myself happy"!
As an added bonus, this journal is well-made, feels luxurious, and is a pleasure to write in.
Don't get stuck on the pink colour, either. This journal comes in a variety of designs.
Available on Amazon.
2 - For Cancer the Mystic
Example Card Meanings:
🌒 Balsamic Moon - A time for healing
Pulling this card suggests that the past is in the past and a bright future is beckoning. This is also a time to surrender and wait to hear guidance from the Universe.
🌑♉ New Moon in Taurus - Prosperity lies ahead
This card will often come up when you’re enquiring about a financial matter or when you’re doubting your self-worth. The card suggests you can have what you want – but you must believe in yourself.
3 - For Cancer the Parent
If the Cancerian you're shopping for happens to be a parent, they will absolutely love this report. After all, Cancer has a deep and instinctive need to nurture. But, in their desire to be the best parent, they can go too far and start smothering rather than mothering 😉
This report, packed with useful tips for the parent, will help them learn more about their child's needs. What if their child - gulp - has an independent Aquarius Moon, and craves personal space?
Customers say:
I was looking for children astrology and to be honest, there isn’t much for children on here. I was so pleased to see that Daria is here! When I got my birth chart, it only took a day and I was astounded at how much the report matched my child. I was speechless! I was very happy with it and a returning customer, waiting for my second child’s birth chart now.
Available on my site here.
4 - For Cancer the Parent or Grandparent:
Cancerians are sentimental beings who love cherish memories. A busy Cancer Mom or a proud grandma will love this modern memory book. They can display the child's photos as they move from kindergarten to Grade 12, and record all the tidbits they never want to forget.
What did their precious little darling want to be when she or he grows up? What was their favourite food? Who was their best friend? And more!
What I love about this book is that it's beautifully simple. It's not going to turn into a huge time-consuming project that will never be completed (and trust me, I have a few of those!). So, like I was saying....perfect for a busy Cancer Mom or a loving Grandma!
Available on Amazon.
5 - For a Cancerian Who Lives Far From the Rest of the Family
This digital photo-frame is perfect for an aunt, uncle or a grandparent who doesn't get to see the rest of the family too often.
Upload your family adventures from your phone, through an app, from anywhere! And have them delivered to your favourite (but far-away) Cancerian through this digital photo-frame.
Voila! Distance is no longer an issue when it comes to sharing family adventures and favourite moments. And all those photos don't have to get lost in WhatsApp texts and emails.
Available on Amazon.
6 - For a Cancer Who Loves Her Family Tree:
This tree-of-life pendant can be customized with the birthstones of your family members - as few or as many as you would like! Comes in gold, or gold-plated sterling silver.
What a wonderful gift for someone who treasures multiple generations in their family. I'm thinking someone with grandkids!
Available on Amazon.
7 - For Cancer the Cook:
A personalized cookbook - what a great way to organize your family recipes! The cover can be customized with your name, or your family name. The book is binder-style inside, and comes with blank recipe pages.
I got this very book, and I love it. No more losing printed out recipes. No more bulky cook books taking space on my bookshelves. Just the recipes you and your family love, and that you want to pass on to your kids (or your niece, or your nephew) at some point - complete with your handwritten notes and recipe adjustments.
Available on Amazon.
8 - For Cancer the Baker:
These reusable bread bags are so handy for keeping your bread fresh until that family dinner! Or freezing that extra loaf for later. As long as your favourite Cancerian is into baking, they will appreciate this thoughtful gift.
And...something else...these bags are from a shop by one of my clients! I love it when my clients pursue their dreams 💖
Available on Amazon.
9 - For a Cancer Who Loves Their Herbs:
If you love to cook, then you know how nice it is to grow your own fresh herbs, right in your kitchen, any time of the year!
This herb incubator uses LED light that turns off and on to stimulate sunlight, and help your herbs - or lettuce - grow 5 times faster. It also includes a smart watering system.
Your Cancerian will appreciate fresh herbs in the winter. Plus, if they have kids (or grandkids), this could turn into a very fun family project!
Available on Amazon.
10 - For Cancer the Homebody:
Most Cancerians I know enjoy the comfort of their home. But you don't have to sacrifice style, either!
This beautiful bath mat will be a welcome addition to your Cancerian's home. It will also work for anyone who loves the Moon!
Choose from a black or gold design.
Available on Amazon.
11 - For a Cancer Who Deserves Only the Very Best:
I got a pair of these silk pillowcases for a discerning friend of mine who only goes for the very best.
Besides making you feel like a million bucks after a long day, a silk pillowcase is fantastic if your hair tangles easily or frizzes up.
Wash them in cold water only; otherwise they shrink. My friend was so disappointed that her first set was ruined that I got her another one for Christmas. There are many cheap knock-offs out there that are not silk but polyester. The real thing - like this one - is a very different experience.
These pillowcases run on the small side, so I would suggest a king size for a queen-size pillow.
12 - For a Cancer Who Needs Some TLC:
Your special Cancerian may be so busy nurturing others that they forget about themselves. They will appreciate this collapsible home spa. A thoughtful AND practical gift! Decadent to use, easy to store.
Available on Amazon.
13 - Crystals to Help Your Cancerian Be and Feel Their Absolute Best
This crystal set is very well designed, to include crystals that enhance the best of Cancer energies, such as intuition, and to also gently boost their clarity of mind - it's a Water sign, after all! Intuitive but needing some help with crystallizing their amazing insights.
Available on Amazon.
14 - For a Cancer Who Wants to Learn About Their Roots
It's not just about their home and immediate family. Cancer energies are about connecting with your roots, at a very deep level.
If your Cancerian friend is interested in genealogy, have they registered with Ancestry yet? It all starts with this little kit that leads to discovering the family you didn't even know about, all around the world!
Available on Amazon.
14 - For Cancer Who Wants to Understand Their Astrological Heritage
And maybe even break some generational curses! Or lean into their generational gifts.
Did you know that prominent astrology markers often repeat in the natal charts of family members, promoting the same behaviours and patterns through generations? And that could be a good thing...or a bad thing.
So gift them a "Generational Patterns" reading with me! This is a very special gift for a very special Cancer.
A quick note - I offer payment by installments, too!
Available on my site.
15 - A Sweetest Gift for Your Bestie
I gave this book to my friend as part of her birthday gift, and it nearly made her cry. You personalize this fill-the-blank book with such lovely sentiments as "If we could bottle your _______ and sell it, we would make a fortune", or "When we're old, let's______".
How perfect for a Cancer, one of the most sentimental Zodiac signs 💖♋
Available on Amazon.
16 - For a Cancer With a Good Sense of Humour
This set of pens speaks for itself! 🤣
Available on Amazon.
17 - For a Cancer Who is an Empath (and/or Loves Cats)
And, if your Cancer friend is into cats, this obsidian kitty will help guard the energetic space in their office or the living room!
When you have several planets in Cancer or Pisces, or when your Sun or Moon are in aspect to Neptune, you can be too open to other people's energy. Black crystals, such as obsidian, will absorb the energy you that is not good for you.
I have this cat, and what I love about it is that is so discreet! You can use it in your office at work, and no one is the wiser re: it's metaphysical properties.
Available on Etsy.
18 - For a Cancer Who Loves Working with the Moon
This fantastic book by Jan Spiller is what got me started on working with the Lunar Cycle. If you read my posts regularly, you know that every month I provide recommended intentions to set on the New Moon.
Jan Spiller's book is an invaluable resource on how to work with the New Moon, with a great variety of recommended intentions.
And, it also allows you to go deeper and work with your Lunar Nodes, to rid yourself of unconscious habits and behaviours that can be working against you. It's your karmic residue that might have followed you your past life!
How perfect for your Cancerian friend who is ruled by the Moon and wants to explore their roots.
