Cancer Woman Aquarius Man


Our Cancer Woman and Aquarius Man compatibility rating is 4. The elements are in a state of discord, and the qualities are not inclined to work with one another. This is a relationship that takes a lot of work.

Also, what needs to be worked on will change often.

The Elements

Water vs Air - Aquarius-Cancer combinations cause the Water and Air elements to act in extremes; balancing them satisfactorily will take a lot of work. This also means that you have different goals, and different attitudes towards relationships in general.

The Qualities

Cardinal vs Fixed - Because the astral elements are discordant, the qualities become more extreme and have a harder time supporting each other. Your Cardinal quality may want to lead, but his Fixed nature doesn't want to follow. His unusual ways are firmly set in his mind.

The Planets

The Moon & Jupiter vs Saturn & Uranus The Moon is your planetary ruler; Aquarius is co-ruled by Saturn and Uranus. Uranus is the planet of surprises and acts in a shocking way, which can disturb your sensitive Lunar temperament. Your exalted planet, Jupiter, is limited by Saturn, but made lucky by Uranus.

Love and Romance

Although you may feel a mysterious and unexpected attraction to him, you'll have to put up with a lot in order to make the relationship work. For one thing, you don't like surprises, and Aquarians tend to be full of them. He may pull off a practical joke just to see what your reaction may be. He may show up after a sudden disappearance with little more that a brief explanation as to where he was and what's been going on with him. Sometimes he'll be filled with enthusiasm and excitement, and at others, he'll seem to barely notice you. Most of his personality characteristics are very different from yours, and, because he's a Fixed Sign, he has no desire to change them. He will usually be somewhat loyal, but his attitude toward relationships may be much more experimental than yours. He's likely to have a wide variety of friends, and will drop most anything at the drop of a hat to "touch base" with them. But if you've become bored with your routines, you couldn't find anyone who'd be more fun.

The Keys to Success

Be prepared for constant change.

Cancer women have a tendency to "mother" their men; always coming up with their favorite treats, treating them with wisdom and compassion, and supporting their efforts to direct the course of their future. Aquarian Men tend to change their favorite treat suddenly and not know what direction they want to go in. You'll have to be very flexible to see to his needs, because they might change at any moment.

Don't depend on him 100% of the time.

An Aquarius Man can be undependable. He will support you every step of the way if he cares about you, and do whatever he can to make you happy, but because of his often surprising or unconventional behavior, will often come up with results that are very different from what you might expect.

Encourage and help him find new adventures.

Most Aquarians who hold down regular jobs and do regular things lean more to the Saturn side of their dual planetary rulership, and they tend to feel like they're stuck in a rut. It's not easy to help him out of it, but if you encourage him to try something new in an affectionate way, he may break through that barrier and find a new jumping-off point for his experiments and adventures, and if you're lucky, he'll ask you to come along.

Final Score: Cancer Woman aquarius Man compatibility = 40%.
