Stop here! You are trying to mix water (Cancer) with fire (Sagittarius)!  These two types of personalities are not the most favorable of combinations.  Sagittarius is free, independent, likes variety and will not sit still for long.  Cancer is extremely emotional, requires a mate who will give them reassurance and gentle understanding.  So where do we go from here?

Sagittarius is open, honest, blunt and frank.  Cancer may react to all the action oriented energy of Sagittarius in such a manner that they become hurt easily, or take things much too personal.  Sagittarius, on the other hand, deals with issues in stride, using an optimistic, nonchalant humorous approach.  Basic misunderstandings can occur frequently.

No matter what dilemma may occur, Sagittarius finds the humor in it, making the best of any situation.  If the roof caves in, Sagittarius says, “Well, we needed a new ceiling anyway”!  Cancer may utter a few whimpering sniffles while drying their eyes, feeling so bad that now some poor soul has to clean up the mess.  Two total different reactions may at times make it difficult for them to understand each other.

Romantically speaking, Sagittarius needs grounding from time to time.  They delight in learning anything, from foreign cultures to different languages, and require a variety in being accessible to freely pursue this quest.  They often become involved in long-distant relationships at one point in their lives. They may meet a special significant other surrounding affairs pursued while either learning or traveling.  The distance between that special someone allows for freedom to pursue knowledge.  This is why they do not like to be tied down.  Cancer will appreciate Sagittarius’ honest qualities and great sense of humor, and this will warm their already emotional heart.  On the other hand, if Sagittarius  is gone more than they stay at home, this may end up leaving the Cancer feeling blue or left “Home Alone” too often.

Sagittarius loves the outdoors and Cancer may love to tinker in the garden.  Just remember that you may not respond to issues in the same manner for your views do differ quite a bit.  The best advice for this combination may be to follow these simple rules.  Give Sagittarius a night out.  Take up a class or spend some time getting outdoors in the great sunshine together.  Ask your Cancer mate to go swimming with you, do some gardening together, and take long romantic strolls in the park.  Do things together that you both have in common and Sagittarius’ intelligent philosophy will surely keep Cancer’s loving heart aglow.
