Guru in Karka in your kundali
Guru is exalted in Karka: this is its strongest sign. It gives its best significations openly and generously, as long as it is not combust or heavily afflicted.
Guru is the karaka of wisdom, children, wealth and good fortune. In Karka these matters take on the colour of the sign: Karka is the Moon's own sign: sensitive, caring and deeply attached to home, mother and family.
In a water sign, Guru acts through feeling, intuition and care.
