Secretive homebodies of Utah, come out of your shells: Cancer is the state's most common astrological sign, per a new Washington Post analysis of voter data.

What it means: Cancer is the crab of the zodiac, "ruled by the emotional Moon," per the Farmer's Almanac.

They're protective, family focused and averse to confrontation, preferring to deftly side-step.

What's next: Leo is rising in Utah, with August the most common birth month in 2023 and 2024, per state health data.

Fiery Leos are the life of the party: confident, glamorous and attention-grabbing (and seeking).

Meanwhile, February, January and November were Utah's least common birth months from 2020 to 2025.

Take heart, young Aquarii, Capricorns and Scorpios; it just means you're extra special.
