Love and Emotions
Feelings don’t seem to be the greatest priority in lives of Cancer representatives born on the 5th of July, even though everything revolves around them in their life. Such a powerful intellectual position almost always gives thinkers that make rational choices and decisions based on communication, friendship, and a human, aware approach. It is possible that their relationships will lack passion or emotion, and this could lead them straight into parallel bonds if they don’t ask themselves what they truly lack before committing to another human being in a union that doesn’t satisfy them.
They need a good friend and someone to talk to, but they should pay attention to build true intimacy with the person who sees them for who they truly are. Their story of self-expression is best seen through their most intimate bonds. Once they realize that non-verbal contacts make them even more excited than those filled with nicknames and obvious communication, they could touch someone's heart in new ways and create something truly grand.

It is also a signal that the personality needs to go though a deep and dark change to find their place under the stars.
