When Cancer and Pisces meet there is almost immediate chemistry between the two water signs, who seem to understand each other without talking. Together they have everything they need to create a happy couple. These two sensitive and romantic signs are on the same wavelength.

And even though both of them are capable of being capricious it’s a combination that should work well in the long term. For this pair, everything to do with feeling and emotion is essential. In general, Cancer and Pisces do their best to protect each other from life’s realities through love and gentleness.

Pisces knows how to reassure the anxious and pernickety Cancer and is paid back when Cancer occupies themselves with the practical details at home as Pisces lives too much in a dream world to be bothered with the everyday.

The only shadow on their relationship is the possessive and overprotective nature of Cancer who is only interested in their homelife and who lives in fear of losing their partner. Pisces will need to spend time reassuring Cancer that being a little more open to the world does not necessarily lead to unfaithfulness.

Communication and emotion between Cancer and Pisces

Pisces is rarely silent and always has something to say on any subject. Cancer will either love this character trait or detest it. In fact, Cancer dislikes people who talk just for the pleasure of hearing their own voice, without having anything real to add to the conversation. What’s more Pisces can often go off on a real rant that completely misses the point, especially about things that concern everyday life. Cancer likes people who have clear and ordered ideas and those whose words are followed by concrete actions.

When it comes to emotions, Cancer feels things well before Pisces talks about them, this is probably why they understand each other so well without talking. This emotional connection affects every sphere of their relationship, creating something almost symbiotic.

Trust between Cancer and Pisces

Trust can be an area of shifting sand that Cancer and Pisces find hard to navigate. When Cancer is in love they have an almost blind trust in their partner. They look forward to creating a home and formalizing their relationship. However, Pisces sees marriage as the “happy ending” you get in a film that doesn’t necessarily apply in real life. Cancer is much more romantic and considers marriage as the natural result of a successful love relationship.

However, because Cancer trusts their instinct, they don’t insist too much. Pisces hates being pressurized to give any sort of commitment. If they feel pressurized, they have a tendency to lie in order to try and get out of what they consider to be an excessive demand. Cancer will need to be patient and understanding until Pisces comes round to the idea in their own time.

Intimacy and sexuality of Cancer with Pisces

The sex life of Cancer and Pisces is almost perfect. These two signs are both very sensitive and have an unusually keen sense of the erotic, so their sex life is generally very fulfilling. As they have similar emotional needs they are usually physically complementary as well. For Cancer and Pisces sex itself is not more important than the circumstances around it. Foreplay, being in a romantic mood and having a spiritual connection are a must. These two water signs are both imaginative and like to bring variety to the bedroom.

Neither one is dominant because each wants to satisfy the other’s needs and desires. Cancer may be a little more traditionalist than Pisces, who can find it hard to understand why Cancer is so shy and reluctant to get off the beaten path. However, with some dialogue, they usually manage to find something that suits them both.

Compatibility in love

A Cancer man with a Pisces woman: Mr Cancer and Miss Pisces get on so well together you might think they were telepathic. They are both very sensitive and emotional and agree on the major points. Mr Cancer tends to live in a dream world but Miss Pisces is unlikely to complain about this since she often has her own head in the clouds. However, Mr Cancer is a bit of an introvert and that can cause trouble. Miss Pisces considers her partner to be too much of a homebody and would like a bit more life outside the home.

A Cancer woman with a Pisces man: Miss Cancer and Mr Pisces have everything they need to live a happy and affectionate life together. They can communicate without saying a word so don’t need long dialogues to ensure they are happy. Both tend to be dreamers so the realities of everyday life can be problematic, even leading them both to come back to earth with a bump and really notice each other’s defaults. When this happens, the aftereffects can be painful.
