Cancer and Independence:

Cancer is the astrology sign that is packed full of contradictions so when it comes to independence, they possibly can or can not be independent. On one side, they have the perseverance and drive to do what needs to be done, they are self-sufficient and do not need to depend on other people for the material and physical things in life. On the other hand, they depend on people for emotional support and encouragement. A Cancer that is not fully self-actualized will need the constant support of others and will not be very independent but the Cancer that is 'evolved' and has properly harnessed their emotional issues will be wildly successful as an independent human being. They crave attention and comfort from other people and they are happiest when they have a small, close knit group of friends or family.

Cancer and Friendship:

Cancer is extremely loyal to those who appreciate and support them, they are the nurturer of the zodiac and will protect and cherish the person for a long time. One of the greatest things about Cancer is their ability to make others feel good about themselves and loved. This is because instead of doing this for themselves, they project this onto other people. This is a positive cycle because in making others feel nurtured, wanted and loved, they in return feel good for making someone feel good. Other people can lean on and depend on cancer, they will listen to people's problems and help them however they will rarely express their own deep feelings to anyone. People who want to share deep emotional thoughts and opinions with a Cancer might feel that the scales are tipped on one side for cancer will rarely reveal it's true deep feelings. A friend of Cancer is usually a lifelong devoted friend that can be trusted.

Cancer and Business:

Once cancer resolved their emotional issues such as shyness and insecurity, the powerful character will shine though, there is practically nothing they can't do. They have incredible perseverance and will stand up for what they believe in. With their strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation and intelligence, they will have great success in anything they undertake. They are excellent business people and investors because of their intuitive and psychic ability and their creative forward thinking mind, they are able to predict future trends. They attract wealth very well and know where to invest. Money and financial well being is very important to Cancer and this can help their drive in business. They need financial security and if they allow themselves to properly focus their energy and do not allow their emotions to over take them, they are more then capable of obtaining their financial goals and being incredibly successful business people.

Cancer Temperament:

They are complex, fragile, unpredictable and temperamental and need constant support and encouragement, more then any other astrology signs, Cancer needs to be needed. Even when all needs are satisfied, they can be irritable and cranky. They have an uneasy, delicate temperament. The contradictory nature of Cancer gives their temperament the wild mood swings and possible temper tantrums. They are easily offended and will sulk and wallow in self pity for a long time when they get hurt.

Cancer Deep Inside:

It is difficult for cancer to open up and have a close emotionally fulfilled relationship with someone because they are so closed off emotionally and physically to the world. This is driven by their fear of trust, Cancer has a difficult time trusting people. This causes built up anger and resentment inside, the contradictory nature really takes a toll on them and they can have a negative outlook on life, thinking that life is just too hard and miserable. This is unfortunate because when good experiences are to be had, they are skeptical of people and their surroundings and they experience tunnel vision due to their depressed outlook and they miss the nice things and happy experiences in life that make it worth living. In addition to lack of trust for people, Cancer is deeply sensitive and easily hurt, this is other reason why they have their defense shell in place, to avoid being hurt by others. Cancer lives in the past. They hold past events close to them and often dwell on the past. They have to learn to let go and live in the present instead of spending their time being sick with nostalgia. Cancer has a lot of emotional issues to deal with but once they overcome this large hump of shyness and insecurity, there is practically nothing they can't do. With their strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation and intelligence, they will have great success in anything they undertake. Cancer is constantly feeling, feelings and emotions are hallmarks of this sign and this is the root of their problems, human beings are not as evolved in the emotional area and this is where cancer gets the brunt of their problems. They are the ones who have to cope with their strong feelings more so then any other sign. Once properly harnessed, there is nothing that is this powerful astrology sign can not accomplish. Harmony is very important to Cancer, it keeps them happy. Conflict of any kind causes great distress. Deep inside, Cancer is a very powerful sign, they have the ability to stand up for what they think is right and they have lots of perseverance and can be fine on their own provided they don't let their emotions get the better of them and have the stability they need. They are not fond of change but they have the ability to do what needs to be done, they are not pushovers or lazy people.

Cancer in a Nutshell:

Cancer is a mysterious sign, filled with contradictions. They want security and comfort yet seek new adventure. They are very helpful to others yet sometimes can be cranky and indifferent. Cancer has a driving, forceful personality that can be easily hidden beneath a calm, and cool exterior. The crab is Cancer's ruling animal and it suits them well, they can come out of their shell and fight but they can also hide in their shell of skitter away back into the depths of the ocean. They are very unpredictable. With cancer, there is always something more that meets the eye, for they are always partially hidden behind the shell. They are a have a deep psyche and intuitive mind that is hidden from the world. Cancer is deeply sensitive and easily hurt, this might be why they have their defense shell in place, to avoids being hurt by others. They are nurturers so they surround themselves with people, whom after a while can offend or hurt a cancer without even knowing they did so, therefore Cancer's protective shell keeps them safe from hurt. They are complex, fragile, unpredictable and temperamental and need constant support and encouragement, more then any other astrology signs, Cancer needs to be needed. When cancer gets the support it needs, it has a tremendous amount to offer in return. When cancer gets offended, they tend to sulk instead of confronting the persons face to face. This needlessly prolongs the pain and suffering. Cancer is very possessive, not just with material possessions but with people as well. Cancer will always want to stay in touch with old friends and anyone who has ever been close to them, because it is easier to maintain a friendship then attempt to learn to trust a new person. It is easier this way for them emotionally. If you befriend a Cancer, you will stay friends for a long time. Cancer makes the perfect mother, this is the sign that represents motherhood. They have unconditional love and caring more so then any other astrology sign. Cancer are very intuitive. Most of the psychics of the world are Cancer astrology signs. They have an excellent memory and are very observant and can read people very well. They can usually tell of other people's intentions are good or not. Never dupe a Cancer, they can see your motives. Cancer has a lot of emotional issues to deal with but once they overcome this large hump of shyness and insecurity, there is practically nothing they can't do. With their strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation and intelligence, they will have great success in anything they undertake.

தாகூர்

தாகூர்... வங்கம் ஈன்றெடுத்த இணையற்ற புதல்வர். இளம் வயதில் எண்ணற்ற கலாசாரங்களின் சங்கமம் நிகழ்ந்த வீட்டில் பிறந்து வளர்ந்ததால், அவரின் சிந்தனை எண்ணற்ற தளங்களைத் தொட்டது.


இங்கிலாந்திற்கு சட்டம் படிக்கப் போய், அதன் மீது மனம் ஒட்டாமல் திரும்பினார். ஏகத்துக்கும் பயணம் செய்வதில் விருப்பம் கொண்ட இவர் ஒரு நாள் நதியின் மீது படகினில் போய்க்கொண்டிருந்தார். அப்பொழுது விளக்குகள் வீசிய காற்றில் அணைந்துபோயின. நதியின் சலனமற்ற தன்மையை பார்த்துக்கொண்டே ஸ்தம்பித்து நின்றார். அங்கேதான் தாகூர், மகாகவி தாகூர் ஆனார்.

வீட்டின் நிர்வாகத்தை கையில் எடுத்துக்கொண்ட தாகூர், கல்விமுறை குழந்தைகளின் மீது வன்முறையை கையாள்வதாக உணர்ந்தார். இயற்கையானச் சூழலில் பிள்ளைகள் கற்கவேண்டும் என விரும்பினார். அமைதியின் உறைவிடம் என பொருள் தரும் சாந்தி நிகேதனை உருவாக்கினார். அதில் தன் வாழ்நாள் முழுவதையும் செலவிட்டார். ஆங்கிலேய அரசிடம் எந்த சூழலிலும் கையேந்த மாட்டேன் என சொல்லி இந்தியர்களின் நிதியுதவியிலேயே அப்பள்ளியை நடத்தினார்.

அற்புதமான பல கவிதைகள் எழுதினார். அவரின் கவிதைகள் ஆங்கிலத்தில் மொழிபெயர்க்கபட்டதால் மேற்கின் கவனம் பதிந்து கீதாஞ்சலி நூலுக்கு நோபல் பரிசு கிடைத்தது. ஆசியாவின் முதல் நோபல் பரிசு இவருக்கே கிடைத்தது.

ஆங்கிலேய அரசின் ஜாலியான்வாலாபாக் படுகொலைகளுக்கு கண்டனம் தெரிவிக்கும் வகையில் தன்னுடைய சர் பட்டத்தை துறந்தார்.

தான் இயற்றிய பாடல்களுக்குத் தானே இசையும் அமைத்திருந்தார். அவை ரவீந்திர சங்கீதம் எனும் பெயரில் இன்றும் பாடப்படுகின்றன. நல்ல ஓவியர், நாவலாசிரியர், சிறுகதை வல்லுநர், நாடக ஆசிரியர் என எண்ணற்ற முகங்கள் இவருக்கு.

காந்தியை 'மகாத்மா' என அழைத்தது இவர் தான். இந்தியாவின் 'ஜன கண மண' மற்றும் வங்காள தேசத்தின் 'அமர் சோனார் பங்களா' எனும் இரண்டு தேசிய கீதங்களுக்கு ஆசிரியர் இவர் ஒருவரே.

என் ஆடைகள், ஆபரணங்களை களைந்து விடு அன்னையே; அவை மணல்வெளியில் ஆனந்தித்து விளையாட பெருந்தடையாக உள்ளன என பாட மட்டுமல்ல; அப்படியே வாழவும் செய்தார் தாகூர்.

அவரின் HEAVEN OF FREEDOM மற்றும் WALK ALONE எனும் கவிதைகள் உங்களுக்காக...


உள்ளம் எங்கே அச்சமின்றி உள்ளதோ,
எங்கே தலைநிமிர்ந்து நிற்கிறதோ,
சிறைவாசங்களின்றி
அறிவு வளர்ச்சிக்கு எங்கே பரிபூரண
விடுதலை உள்ளதோ,
குடும்பத்தின் குறுகிய கட்டுப்பாடுகளால்
வெளி உலகின் ஒருமைப்பாடு
எங்கே உடைபட்டு
துண்டுகளாய்ப் போய்விடவில்லையோ,
வாய்ச்சொற்கள் எங்கே
மெய்நெறிகளின் அடிப்படையிலிருந்து
வெளிப்படையாய் வருகின்றனவோ,
விடாமுயற்சி எங்கே தளர்ச்சியின்றி
முழுமையை நோக்கி
தனது கரங்களை நீட்டுகிறதோ,
அடியாதாரத்தை தேடிச் செல்லும்
தெளிந்த அறிவோட்டம் எங்கே
பாழடைந்த பழக்கம் என்னும்
பாலை மணலில் வழி தவறிப்
போய்விட வில்லையோ,
நோக்கம் விரிகவும், ஆக்கப் பணி புரிகவும்
உள்ளத்தை எங்கே வழிநடத்திச் செல்கிறாயோ, அந்த
விடுதலைச் சொர்க்க பூமியில்
எந்தன் பிதாவே! விழித்தெழட்டும்
என் தேசம் !
***
யாரும் உன் குரலுக்கு செவிமடுக்கவில்லையா?
நீண்ட சுவடுகளை பதித்து தனித்து நட
எல்லாரும் அகக்கதவுகளை மூடி மவுனித்திருந்தால்
உன் மனதை திறந்து, தனித்து பேசு!
தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட
சுடும்பாதை தடைகளால் அழுத்தும்
முகங்களை திருப்பிக்கொண்டு கைவிட்டு போவார்
முற்களை நசுக்கு!
உதிரக்காயங்கள் தோய்ந்து ரத்தம் சொட்டும் பாதையில்
கம்பீரமாக பயணிப்பாய்
தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட
யாரும் விளக்கை ஏந்த மறுக்கும்
இருள் கசியும் பொழுதை பெரும் புயல் தாக்கி
பிணிநெருப்பை இடிபோல தந்திடுமாயின்
உன் உள்ளத்தை உருக்கி நீயே ஒளியாகு
தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட, தனித்து நட
