Cancer/Aquarius
Sun Sign Compatibility
These two Sun signs may have excitement at first, but quickly Cancer's need for approval will weigh on too much on the independent and detached Aquarius. Cancer is more than likely to be the pursuer in this relationship to an unhealthy degree.
There is a strong possibility that there will be a toxic dynamic between these two in some sense. One is needy and the other is hyper independent. There are lessons to be learned from opposite ways of emotional mindsets, but the challenge will be that likely neither partner will be open to the opportunity for growth.
Modality Compatibility
Cancer's cardinal energy may spark anger in the fixed Aquarius. The energy between them pushes and pulls on boundaries to each other's dismay and hardship. Cancer has the biggest opportunity to grow emotionally from this dynamic. Working with a coach, therapist, or psychic they can tap into what is at the heart of this obsession to work through it in healthy ways.
Element Compatibility
The Water sign and Air sign exist within troubled waters. Whereas Cancer is navigating their internalized feelings, Aquarius is spending time apart and alone considering life in general. These two have trouble seeing each other and connecting. Cancer will feel like they are constantly swimming towards an unreachable destination while the Aquarius will be detached and not aware.
Energetic Strengths
Imagination and intellect are the strengths of this relationship. Cancer's ability to be persuasive charms the quirky Aquarius from time to time when they accept and approve of their ideas and creativity. These two could work together in the business world well as boss and employee, Aquarius being the boss.
Energetic Challenges
When it comes to communicating, these two are not in alignment when there is romance at play. Cancer will suppress their emotions while the Aquarius will come off as aloof and detached, much to Cancer's dismay. Cancer will become extremely frustrated in their attempts to pull the relationship together as it will feel one-sided (and it most likely will be). Understanding boundaries and the painful reality that not everyone loves you in the same way will be crucial for Cancer's growth.
How to Create Astrological Balance
Romance may be off the plate for these two signs, but they could have potential in a work environment. The key to success is to learn not to take things personally and when to be more mindful of others feelings and perspective. Conflict is likely, but both of these signs have the chance to learn and grow from the experience of the relationship no matter what shape it takes.
