Note, this article is written from the viewpoint of the Aquarius man or Aquarius woman. There is a separate article from the viewpoint of the Cancer man or Cancer woman available here Cancer and Aquarius

You want freedom and flexibility in a relationship, whereas this partner is very big on security and constant affection to keep bonds strong. There's a good chance you will start to feel trapped or smothered, while they start to feel insecure.

You want an intellectual equal to debate and unravel the mysteries of the world with, while this partner is more interested in emotional empathy and romantic evenings at home.

It can certainly work, if you're very sensitive and attentive. Your Cancer is a partner who needs a lot of quality attention however, which is something that many Aquarians struggle to provide in the long term. As a rule you don't do well with emotionally needy partners.

Your Cancer is a partner who likes to stay home, and is often very close to family, often preferring to spend time with them over spending time with friends or socializing - this may be very alien to you.

Aquarius Cancer sex

Likely to be very good initially, however in the long term it's less likely to remain satisfying. This is a partner who wants more love and affection, and a little less fun and excitement than you do. The lack of emotional connection is likely to make your Cancer even more emotional and needy, creating a vicious circle if you start to pull away.

So is this article conclusive?

No! This article is based only on sun sign interaction. In order to provide a lot of people with information it's a convenient and fast way to generalize, but it's far from conclusive at this broad level.

To get a complete picture we need to take all the other planets and their interactions into account. If you would like more information for your unique relationship please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

Other resources

Often the hardest questions to ask are the most important - for example, what are their views and expectations for raising children? sharing housework? saving money? career goals? etc.

One subtle and fun way to approach this is by working through a couples question book together - that way it's not really you asking, and delicate subjects can be covered easily. The best book for this I've found is Michael Webb's 1000 Questions For Couples

For reviews of this and other relationship ebooks on subjects ranging from improving your sex life to getting an ex back please see the relationship ebook reviews page.

A third method of further research is to share experiences with other couples of this same sign combination - you may be amazed how consistent they often are. Please see the links below for visitor experiences and questions.

In any relationship there are also very significant external factors. One of these is how well you understand yourself, your partner and your partnership - the more you do, the easier it is to make the relationship more exciting, fulfilling and satisfying for both of you, regardless of your starting position. The articles on how to Make him fall in love with you and Make her fall in love with you have information on how you can use astrology to revitalize a relationship.

Gay or lesbian relationships

The information on this page applies equally to gay or lesbian relationships. Overall, gender affects relationships far less than planet placement does, so it's currently ignored to avoid my initial articles becoming overburdened with gender permutations and qualifications. I plan to do a dedicated section on this to follow.
