Can a down-to-earth and straightforward Capricorn woman make it work with a tender and caring Cancer man? These opposite signs may surprise you! Read on to learn everything you need to know about this earth sign/water sign duo, including the couple's strengths, all aspects of their compatibility, and the places they can improve their relationship for the better.
Steps
Sexual Compatibility
- Cancer's open, encouraging style helps a Capricorn woman relax. A Capricorn woman needs time to establish a physical connection with someone, and she may prefer to get to know someone on an emotional level first. Thankfully, Cancer is patient, kind, and always honest about his emotions. She'll like the fact that he values having an emotional connection in the bedroom, and it'll help her get comfortable showing off her sensual side.
- Capricorn will love Cancer's affectionate, emotionally intuitive nature. As a deeply emotional sign, a Cancer man likes to have a meaningful connection with his partner and isn't just looking for a fling. This is perfect for the commitment-oriented Capricorn, which will make the two hit it off immediately. Their similar values and deep attraction will take the couple to new heights, and they'll share a super fulfilling sex life.
Emotional Compatibility
- A Capricorn's control over her emotions might confuse a Cancer. Capricorn is an earth sign, which makes her rather mellow. She knows how she feels, but she rarely gets worked up. She may even prioritize work or other responsibilities over dealing with her more complex feelings. Though this displays her remarkable self-control, it may make a Cancer man feel like he doesn't know what's going on inside her head.
- Capricorn, you can deepen your relationship with a Cancer man by getting a little more vulnerable. You might be surprised by how good it feels to confront your tough emotions and open up about them.
- A Cancer's mood swings may overwhelm a Capricorn woman. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which represents a person's deepest feelings and emotions. This compels a Cancer man to be surprisingly sensitive, and his moods ebb and flow like the tide. Though this makes him incredibly caring and empathetic, it can also make him a little moody (especially in the eyes of an even-keeled Capricorn woman).
- Cancer, you will benefit from finding a therapeutic outlet to let out your deep and sometimes stormy emotions. Journaling, painting, and even cooking can all help you reach a more calm state and avoid taking your feelings out on your partner.
Communication Compatibility
- A Capricorn woman has a blunt, straightforward communication style. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, the planet of rules, boundaries, and discipline.[2] This makes her skilled in setting boundaries and communicating her needs plainly, but her serious nature may strike a Cancer as a little cold (even if she doesn't mean to be).
- If you're a Capricorn, you will benefit from remembering how sensitive your Cancer partner is before you speak. It may help to throw in a compliment or something affectionate before you share any well-meaning criticism.
- A Cancer man likes to process his thoughts and feelings out loud. Cancer is a water sign, which compels him to be a deeply honest and open communicator. He shares what's on his mind freely and needs to voice what's going on in his head out loud. Though this displays a lot of emotional maturity, he'll need to be careful that he doesn't rely too much on his Capricorn partner to process his feelings.
- Cancer, you can help a Capricorn adjust to your emotional communication style by relying on other people for support as well. Calling up a friend sometimes can help you avoid overwhelming your partner.
- A Capricorn woman values hard work and commitment. As a cardinal sign, a Capricorn woman is profoundly ambitious.[3] She's always making plans for the future, and in relationships, she's looking for someone who wants to build a life with her. This makes her a perfect match for a Cancer, another cardinal sign who desires everlasting love.
- Capricorn, you may need to remember to make your Cancer man a priority in your busy schedule. If you take a break to spend time with your man and go on a romantic date, it will mean the world to him.
- A Cancer man wants nothing more than a stable, loving home life. The sign of Cancer is associated with family life, which makes him drawn to establishing a meaningful support system wherever he goes. In relationships, he's looking for a steadfast partnership, and he'll find just that with a Capricorn woman. Both hardworking signs, the two will work together to make their dreams as a couple a reality (from moving in together to decorating their dream apartment).[4]
- As much as Capricorn values her shared life with Cancer, she'll still need some alone time. If you're a Cancer, try to give your partner some space and maintain your own friendships and interests outside of your relationship.
Potential Challenges
- A Capricorn may lose patience with a Cancer's ever-changing emotions. As a disciplined and rational sign, a Capricorn may struggle to understand Cancer's more emotionally fluid nature. Over time, she may get frustrated with his unpredictability, especially if he starts to take out his moods on her.
- The two of you can absolutely make things work if you meet in the middle. Capricorn, you can remember to be a little more patient with your partner. If you're a Cancer, try to reign in your more over-the-top feelings.
- A Cancer man may desire a more emotionally sensitive partner. A Capricorn woman will undoubtedly love her Cancer partner, but she may not always express that love in a way that he understands. As a very open and generous sign, he might desire more overt displays of affection and tenderness than she can give.
- Finding a compromise can help the two of you make your relationship last. Capricorn, you can push yourself to be a little more openly affectionate. If you're a Cancer, remind yourself that everyone expresses their feelings differently.
