Cancer and Scorpio

Four signs apart, 120° (a trine): the most harmonious aspect. Life together flows with little effort; the only danger is taking it for granted.

The elements

Both are water signs. You recognise each other at once: the same temperament, the same speed, the same way of wanting. The gift is ease; the danger is too much of one thing, with no one to supply what you both lack.

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, Scorpio is intense, passionate and loyal to the end; it wants total trust and does not forgive betrayal easily.

Counsel

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

Release what you hold in the dark; transformation needs forgiveness.

Correspondences

♋︎ Cancer
Water, cardinal · tenderness, memory and a fierce instinct to protect
♏︎ Scorpio
Water, fixed · intensity, secrecy and a will that never lets go

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.
