Compatibility

Cancer & Capricorn

Cancer and Capricorn face each other across the zodiac. It is the most magnetic axis there is: what one has, the other is looking for.

The angle between your signs — the opposition (180°)

Your signs sit exactly opposite. The opposition attracts and confronts at once: each sees in the other what they lack. The bond holds when each stops wanting the other to become like them.

Your elements — Water and Earth

Earth gives shape, Water gives depth. A pair of elements that feed each other: Water makes Earth fertile, Earth keeps Water from losing itself.

Your rhythms — cardinal and cardinal

Two cardinal signs: you both start things. Plenty of initiative — and the question of who leads.

Your rulers

Cancer is ruled by the Moon, Capricorn by Saturn. Emotion and shelter, facing structure and time.

Two Suns don’t make a duo.

The Sun is only one body out of ten. Your Moon, your Venus, your Mars and your rising sign matter just as much — and no two Cancer-Capricorn duos are alike. AstroXP compares your two full charts, to the minute of birth, and gives you two scores that don’t boil down to one: charge and ease. Then, every day, the climate between you.

What does the opposition mean in astrology?

Your signs sit exactly opposite. The opposition attracts and confronts at once: each sees in the other what they lack. The bond holds when each stops wanting the other to become like them.
