When a Cancer Mars has to deal with a certain problem for 2nd or 3rd time, he is able to solve it in the most effective way. Because they approach things in a more gentle and delicate way, others are not aware of the intentions they have and they only realize it when the Mars in Cancer person starts the actual action.
