How Cancer and Leo meet

Your signs sit next to each other in the zodiac. You have little in common at first sight, and that is exactly what you can learn from each other. It takes patience, but the bond can grow very close.

Fire + Water

Fire and water are very different. Fire acts and speaks openly, water feels first and needs safety. Fire can seem harsh, water can seem moody. With care this pair gives warmth and depth, but both must slow down and listen.

Your pace together

One of you starts things, the other keeps them going. That can work very well: one brings the new plan, the other makes it last. Friction comes when the starter wants change and the other wants to stay.

What Cancer brings

You love with care and you want to feel safe. You look after people before they ask. Say what you need out loud, because others cannot always guess it.

What Leo brings

You love in a big way and you are loyal. You like to show your love, and you like to hear it back. Let your partner have the spotlight sometimes.
