Cancer and Libra Compatibility in Love and Marriage

An interesting contrast

You are built differently — and that is both the difficulty and the pair's chief value. Wherever you learn to translate between your languages, the differences become strength. This is a union that teaches both partners a great deal, if both are willing to learn.

Cancer and Libra is a meeting of water and air. Cancer senses a room before entering it. Libra walks in — and the sharp corners of the room seem to round themselves. Together this is a combination with plenty to teach each other.

Cancer in a relationship

In love, Cancer builds a nest and guards it seriously. She needs quiet certainty that your back is her back too — not loud passion for show.

Libra in a relationship

In love, Libra needs partnership in the full sense: choosing together, laughing together, being silent together. Rudeness and pressure put her light out faster than any distance.

Elements: Water and Air

Air and water live in different dimensions: one in thoughts, words and ideas, the other in feelings and depth. He sometimes thinks she feels everything too much; she thinks he reasons a little coldly where he should simply feel. But let air learn to dive and water learn to speak, and you get a rare pair where mind and heart finally share one language.

How you act as a pair

Both of you are the kind who start things and lead. There is enough energy between you for ten projects, but you'll have to take turns at the wheel: two captains find one bridge crowded.

What the stars say

This mix is considered one of the trickier ones — you'll do a little more translating between languages. Then again, such a pair also teaches you more.
