Cancer and Libra

Three signs apart, 90° (a square): the aspect of friction. Your aims cross; the tension can become passion or quarrel, and often both. A square builds when both choose to work at it.

The elements

Water and air are unlike elements: in the old language one is active and the other receptive. This is no verdict against you, but you will have to learn each other’s language, because what feels natural to one can feel foreign to the other.

In love

In love, Cancer is tender, protective and deeply attached; it needs security, family and a partner who makes a home with it.

In love, Libra lives for partnership: romance, beauty, fairness and harmony; it fears conflict and loneliness.

Counsel

Do not let old hurts close the shell; feel, then let go.

Decide, even at the risk of displeasing someone.

Correspondences

♋︎ Cancer
Water, cardinal · tenderness, memory and a fierce instinct to protect
♎︎ Libra
Air, cardinal · grace, fairness and a longing for harmony

What this comparison can and cannot say

This compares only the Sun signs, as the old almanacs did. A real comparison of two people, called synastry, reads both whole charts: the Moon, Venus, Mars and the Ascendant often matter more than the Sun. Read this as a first sketch, not a verdict.
