John Clareโs 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.
John Clare was born in the Year of the Ox. Another of the powerful Chinese Zodiac signs, the Ox is steadfast, solid, a goal-oriented leader, detail-oriented, hard-working, stubborn, serious and introverted but can feel lonely and insecure. Takes comfort in friends and family and is a reliable, protective and strong companion. Compatible with Snake or Rooster.
Nineteenth-century poet best known for "I Am" and other metaphysical, nature-themed, and romantic poems. His poetry collections include Poems Descriptive of Rural Life and Scenery, The Rural Muse, and The Village Minstrel.
He held a number of odd jobs, including lime kiln worker and militia member, and he even spent time in a Gypsy camp.
He had little education and was known during his lifetime as "The Northamptonshire Peasant Poet."
His father worked on a farm in rural England, and Clare grew up malnourished and poor.
He was committed to a mental institution following a violent outburst during a performance of William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. While confined to the asylum, he also claimed to be William Shakespeare.
