I just think this stuff is fun.
What are your signs?
I'm Cancer the crab in the western zodiac.....in both the Chinese Zodiac and Burmese Zodiac, I'm a Rat.
This is Cancer the crab's part in the story of Hercules(obviously not the Disney version though):
"Cancer, the Crab, plays a minor role in the Twelve Labors of Hercules. While Hercules was busy fighting the multi-headed monster, Hydra, the goddess Hera, who did not like Hercules, sent the Crab to distract him. Cancer grabbed onto the hero's toe with its claws, but barely breaking the rhythm of his great battle with Hydra, Hercules crushed the crab with his foot. Hera, grateful for the little crustacean's heroic but pitiful effort, gave it a place in the sky."
There's a longer post about it on this site: www.cancer.arollo.com/mythology-history/
