When Cancer and Capricorn make a loving couple, it's a celestial pairing of great tenacity and determination.

Capricorn, the Sea Goat, is focused on logic, on being realistic and real. Cancer brings a charge of emotional intensity to the relationship. Both hold themselves to high standards tempered by a permanent mutual respect. In a Capricorn partner, Cancer finds dedication, and in return Capricorn comes to love Cancer's persistence. These two Signs from opposite sides of the Zodiac can come together to create a very successful and secure connection.

This relationship is built and grows from a solid base of material and emotional security. Both Signs can depend on frugal and conservative decisions. It doesn't have to be all solemnity, though, as Cancer can help their Capricorn lover work hard to relax a bit at the end of the day, taking time to enjoy the rewards of all that work. Cancer will also be the one to polish and preserve the fruits of their shared achievements. Cancer is the guardian of nostalgia and cherished memories and possessions. Capricorn leads Cancer to conquest and keeps its Cancer tendencies in check, enlightening Cancer to the most important issues in the world outside its own easily wounded heart. This relationship is successful if there is a rigid commitment and a stable, traditional home environment.

The Moon (Emotion) rules Cancer, and Saturn (Karma) rules Capricorn. The Moon is a warm, feminine energy and Saturn is a cold, masculine energy. The Moon is emotional and stimulating, it's about care and maternal intuition, both of which are vital for Cancer. Saturn practices integrity and discipline to achieve goals. A loving Cancer partner can show their serious Capricorn partner how to enjoy life and appreciate beauty and comfort. Capricorn can smooth Cancer's emotional feathers, providing the kind of solid foundation that Cancer desperately craves. Capricorn teaches Cancer to be more disciplined and to go out into the world and strive to achieve goals.

Cancer is a Water Sign and Capricorn is an Earth Sign. Earth signs focus on possessions, water signs on emotion and intuition, but also on beauty and nostalgia. Cancer-Capricorn love partners like to surround themselves with beautiful things such as a stately home, beautiful works of art, expensive cars. Their desire to be economically stable and their love of elegance ensures that this couple works hard towards this and other shared goals. This mutual love of nice things keeps them out of arguments about a partner trying to live ostentatiously or beyond their means.

Cancer and Capricorn are Cardinals. Both are initiatory, active and fiery. Although this can be a catalyst for some conflicts, it can provide Capricorn with an emotional pillar, as Cancer is entirely devoted to relationships. Their different emotional dispositions complement each other well. Capricorn is excellent at doing essential business, and Cancer always steps in when emotional counseling is needed. These Signs will get on well if Capricorn and Cancer allow each other to use their respective individual strengths.

What's the best thing about the relationship between Cancer and Capricorn? Their total dedication to each other and their mutual commitments to shared goals. Both are lovers of quality and beautiful, luxurious things, and neither shies away from the idea of a bit of hard work if that's what it takes (in fact, the Capricorn would rather be working than almost anything!). Your shared passions, sense of responsibility and morality make your relationship highly compatible.
