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.
If you can give a Cancer emotional commitment and security, a loving home and
some care for children, you have a better chance of getting their love and
affection. If you can give a Libra class, style, fairness and equality then you
have a better chance of getting their love and affection.
Cancer and Libra can create success by sharing a vision of the future.
The sparkling panache of the lovely Libran draws Cancers attention right away.
When you hit it off with a Libran, a bright new world of creativity, laughter
and good fashion sense opens up as you step out of your private world and onto
the fairways and greens of Society.
Libra's sexuality is responsive, yet very much subject to the environment. Libra
seeks beauty and harmony in all things, so if you want to get along, make sure
the scene is set properly for love. A natural partner, the Scales needs to
relate so is eager to please. Ruled by Venus, Libra is attractive, with
impeccable taste, but can be coquettish and even devious. Charming Libra can be
vain at times and responds readily to praise and flattery. The more attention
you give, the more he or she will lap it up. Indeed, should your attention
decrease for any length of time, Scales may lose interest and gravitate towards
a warmer flame. Libra has a reputation for being easily led and unable to make
decisions, but when thwarted, a sterner side can emerge, much to the surprise
and consternation of the less finely attuned.
Essentially, Cancer is a good person who needs to deal with family and emotional
issues. Cancer's hugs are world class and Cancer's snuggles are second to none.
Cancer is naturally inclined to be touchy about some, but not all relatives and
needs to work on the family tree and make some sense of it all. Libra is a nice
person and tends to be a bit more cultured and "better" than others. Usually,
Libra is also diplomatic enough to keep your superiority complexes in check. The
more that Libra becomes fair-minded, impartial and unprejudiced, the happier
Libra becomes.
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.
Cancer has moods that change about four times a day, every two and a half days,
every month and every 18 or 19 years. Cancer needs to make the most of these
cycles, and establish goals with corresponding deadlines. Libra has the
potential for much social intercourse and favourable public contact. To really
thrive, Libra needs to be part of a loving, committed "marriage."
Libra, like Cancer, is a Cardinal Sign, best involved with a special person who
understands a deep need for romance and a search for the perfect environment.
Cooperative, imaginative and willing to experiment with all manner of
relationship styles, this flexibility is intriguing, but can soon become
threatening to your need for security. You operate on entirely different levels.
You want love to be emotionally transcendent, while Airy Libra seeks perfect
intellectual communion. Libra has little sympathy for your moods, and given time
you'll become exasperated by Libra's detachment and shallow emotions. Learn to
be more tolerant and less possessive if you want to keep your Libra.
Cancer is not necessarily the most direct individual. Security is something
Cancer is always aware of. Usually it's a top priority. Cancer is definitely
strong and protective of turf. All things being equal, Libra prefers civil
conversation. Libra usually does not find reason for raised voices or crude
language at inappropriate times. Embarrassment can be an issue for Libra. Libra
likes to ask for advice, but does not like to be told what to do. Libra needs a
cushy job in a swanky environment.
You both like to start things and to take the initiative. You're each restless,
energetic, outgoing, opportunistic and ambitious. Probably, you're both more
busy than bored.
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.
You are both idealists, so can find common ground in social values, if you sort
out your priorities. Liberal Libra seeks balance and justice, giving focus to
the partner, but conservative Cancer is the protector of home, family and the
values that uphold them. Both of you do love a beautiful home, so there is
harmony there, but Libra is so extravagant that your cautious command of the
financial niceties will be outraged once Libra starts throwing money around like
confetti.
Your priorities are so different that it's hard to find common ground. If you
love a Libran, you will need to take serious stock of your goals and ambitions.
The match can be satisfying, but only with excellent compensating Moon Signs or
other compatible chart factors. If you don't have these, you should let the
Librans sparkle on somebody else's tree.
