Franz Kafka’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Franz Kafka was born in the Year of the Goat. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Goat enjoy being alone in their thoughts. They’re creative, thinkers, wanderers, unorganized, high-strung and insecure, and can be anxiety-ridden. They need lots of love, support and reassurance. Appearance is important too. Compatible with Pig or Rabbit.
Czech modernist author of the famous novella, The Metamorphosis, in which a businessman awakes to find that he has become a giant dung beetle. Kafka's other major works include The Judgment, Contemplation, and Letters to Felice.
He studied law at the German Charles-Ferdinand University of Prague. Afterwards, he worked for the Assicurazioni Generali, an Italian insurance company, but was unhappy because his long work hours left little time for his writing.
His novels, The Trial and The Castle, were never printed during his lifetime, and, at the time of his death, he asked for them to be burned; however, the books survived and are now considered major works of the twentieth century.
He was born in Prague to a German-Jewish family that included parents Hermann and Julie Kafka and siblings Gabriele, Valerie, and Ottilie (all of whom died tragically in the Holocaust). Franz Kafka died young of tuberculosis and never married, but had numerous relationships during his lifetime; his lovers included Felice Bauer, Dora Diamant, and Writer Milena Jesenska.
Vladimir Nabokov held Kafka's work in very high regard.
