Cancer and Capricorn compatibility

Cancer and Capricorn are opposite signs, both cardinal, one water and one earth. In traditional astrology opposite signs complete each other, but staying together takes effort.

In both your charts

Sign compatibility only looks at the Sun sign. The Relationship section of the app puts both birth charts side by side, adds the Moon, Venus and Mars, and reads your relationship from both charts.

Compare both charts

Where you get along easily

When you move into a new apartment, Capricorn handles the lease and the budget while Cancer makes the place feel like home with plants and a full fridge. You each want a safe base, so the place feels settled within a week.

Where you clash

If Capricorn works late for the third night in a row, Cancer waits with dinner getting cold and says nothing. Capricorn arrives and talks about the project, and Cancer answers in one word.

In love

When the date of your first dinner comes around, Cancer remembers it exactly and Capricorn has booked the same restaurant a month ahead. You sit at the same table, and the quiet evening shows each of you that the other was paying attention.

In friendship and work

On a shared project, Capricorn sets the quarterly goals and Cancer notices which colleague is having a hard week. The goals get met because the people behind them keep showing up.
