The dynamic
How Taurus and Cancer get on
Taurus and Cancer are 60° apart. Astrologers call this a sextile, a friendly angle. Your elements, earth and water, work well together. Success is not automatic, but it comes easily. When one of you suggests something, the other usually agrees.
Love · Flow
In love
In love, Taurus needs stability, physical affection and actions rather than promises. Cancer needs emotional safety, loyalty and a real home. Taurus offers loyalty, comfort and calm, and Cancer offers tenderness, care and strong protection. It often starts as a friendship. It becomes more if one of you says so first.
Friendship · Harmony
As friends
As friends, Taurus is the one who cooks the good dinner and remembers everything. Cancer is the one who remembers your family’s names and asks about your bad week. You are easy to spend time with and easy to call. This is one of the most natural friendships in the zodiac.
Work · Harmony
At work
At work, Taurus gets results by working slowly and finishing properly. Cancer gets results by looking after the team as well as the task. Cancer is a cardinal sign, so it likes to start projects. Taurus is a fixed sign, so it likes to keep them going. Let each of you do the part you are good at.
Making it work
Three things to try
- Accept each other’s invitations. This pair grows closer by doing things together.
- Watch for stubbornness from Taurus and sensitivity from Cancer.
- To see the whole relationship, compare your Moon signs (feelings), Venus signs (love) and rising signs (first impressions).
