When Cancer and Libra make a love match, they give to one
another important things that each lacks. Both Signs seek a secure,
assured relationship and will enjoy their shared appreciation for
beauty
and luxury -- especially when it comes to their domestic environment.
These two can blend their energies harmoniously if they choose to work
toward a common goal. Though this pairing may progress more slowly than
some others, and at first they may fear that they have little else in
common than their mutual needs for companionship and love of beauty.
However, the more they get to know one another, the better each
individual in this Cancer-Libra love match will recognize and respect
positive qualities in the other.
Neither Cancer nor Libra shy
away from combining the powers of their emotion and their intellect,
and
both enjoy the occasional teary opera or sentimental heirloom.
Expression of sentiment and happiness are important to both Signs, and
Cancer and Libra can complement one another in many ways. Cancer
appreciates Libra's charm and tact, and Libra's calm, cool diplomacy
skills can tame even the wildest pouting fit a Cancer can muster up.
Also, Libra, lover of aesthetic beauty and harmony, will appreciate
their Cancer mate's nurturing instinct for a comfortable home and the
security that comes with it. Libra can offer the sometimes emotionally
impetuous Cancer some perspective on situations. Cancer needs to see
the
different sides of an issue, or this Crab may be prone to making
decisions without knowing all the facts. Conversely, Cancer can help
Libra cure their notorious indecision.
The Moon (Emotion) rules
Cancer, and the Planet Venus (Love) rules Libra. These planetary
partners share a love of home, family and romance. While Libra is known
for its balancing nature (the Balance is Libra's symbol, after all!),
these love partners share nurturing personalities and desire harmony
over conflict. More than any other match-up of Signs, this astrological
pair brings a warmth and sense of stability to those around them.
Despite all the harmony and homey happiness, though, Librans, whose
life
approach is based on intellect, can be a bit snobbish and superior, and
Cancer, who looks at life through emotional lenses, still has those
easily bruised feelings to contend with.
Cancer is a Water Sign,
and Libra is an Air Sign. Libra sees life as a pure mental exploration,
while Cancer's experience is more tactile, more kinesthetic. Cancer is
most satisfied when their emotional needs are met, while Libra simply
focuses on what stimulates their mind. At times, these lovers may find
it difficult to understand one another. Conflicts can arise in this
relationship if Cancer seems too crabby or Libra seems too provocative.
Both need to learn that they simply view the world in different ways.
Cancer and Libra are both Cardinal Signs. In this relationship,
there could be struggles over who wears the pants, who's at the
steering wheel, who's really in control here. If Libra's indecision
irritates Cancer, Libra can turn on their subtle charm and sense of
fairness and go along with Cancer's decision -- as long as Cancer
doesn't get Crabby! Both are initiators, which can, when their ideas
and approaches differ, be quite a struggle.
What's the best
thing about the Cancer-Libra love match? Their mutual appreciation of
stability and domestic balance. Aesthetics matter to them, and they
share a love of the comforts in life. Their similar tastes and loves
make theirs a relationship of great dedication and harmony.
