Summer is here and she brought Cancer season with her. In honor of all you crustaceans, we consulted astrologer Lisa Stardust on the perfect gift picks for this intuitive sign: "Although Cancers have a rep for being extra emotional, the crab is a sentimental being, ruled by the ever-changing Moon," Stardust tells Refinery29. "Their side crawl on the seashore makes them also extremely artistic, as they have the ability to observe and see life from a different view which lends a helping hand to their creative minds."

If you're stumped on what to buy your Cancer companion, allow the stars to guide you. "It’s important that their crew remember them on their special day," Stardust cautions of crossing a Cancer: "If you forget, they’ll pinch you with their claws forever." Ahead, discover 19 unique gift ideas that were tactfully selected with this strong-but-sensitive star in mind.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team.
