Dignity and strength
Cancer is ruled by Moon. For Rahu, this makes it a enemy sign. The planet is uncomfortable in an enemy's sign, so its results come with friction.
Personality and nature
Rahu represents ambition and obsession, foreign lands, technology and media, sudden rise and illusion. In the water sign Cancer - symbolised by the crab - these qualities become caring, emotional, family-minded and moody.
The movable quality of Cancer makes the planet's results quick and changeable.
Career and money
With Rahu in Cancer, suitable fields often include technology, aviation, foreign trade, politics and research, coloured by Moon's own interests in hospitality.
Relationships
Partners usually notice the emotional side first, and the moody side later.
