Compatibility in percentages
Aries and Cancer in love
There is real tension between these signs: each has its own rules and pace, and they rarely match. That creates strong attraction and frequent arguments alike. Such a couple either grows very fast or tires very fast. Their chances are good if they treat arguments as a way of getting to know each other rather than a fight.
Fire and Water
Fire and water attract each other strongly and unsettle each other just as strongly. Fire is direct and fast; water is sensitive and careful. If fire learns tenderness and water learns to say its feelings out loud, this bond turns into deep passion.
Rhythm and temperament
Both are cardinal signs: both lead, both like to start things and make the call. There is plenty of energy, but the question of who is in charge comes up often.
Aries in love
Aries is direct and passionate in love: it makes the first move, fights for what it wants and cannot stand cold, unclear games. It needs a partner who can match its energy, shows admiration openly and leaves it free.
Cancer in love
Cancer is tender, caring and very sensitive in love. What matters most is the feeling of home and emotional safety. It needs a partner who takes its feelings seriously and answers warmth with warmth.
Advice for this couple
In an argument, aim to understand rather than to win. Agree in advance who decides what.
