Leo and Cancer are not the most successful union according to the western horoscope of compatibility. The relations of representatives of these signs can be warm only with the intensive work of each of them on themselves. If no one wants to compromise, then this union will fail. You will learn even more interesting things about this alliance by familiarizing yourself in detail with the feature below.
Personal qualities of representatives
Perhaps there is no more emotional sign of the zodiac than Cancer. However, this is not at all visible from the side. Cancer carefully keeps its feelings locked up, thereby building a protective barrier in front of itself.
Cancers usually have close relationships with their family and are very attached to their mother. Despite the fact that they hide their emotions deep in their souls, where they will not allow anyone to penetrate, they understand the mood of others on the move, absorb the feelings of others.
These are initiative individuals who know how to choose their friends or business partners. Due to the fact that Cancer always deeply understands the true causes of phenomena, it is very difficult to deceive. Cancer loves taking care of loved ones, prefers stability in relationships, needs long-term relationships.
Due to the excessive inner emotionality of Cancer, it is easy to offend. He is deeply hurt by words that are not specifically pronounced, sometimes he even sees in them an appeal to himself, although in fact this is not so. These are suspicious people, but sometimes excessive caution allows Cancer to avoid failures and achieve success.
The representative of this zodiac sign shows childish naivety even in adulthood, he is attached to objects and places from the past, sentimental.
Leo has a completely opposite character. His actions are determined by the assessment or opinion of others. Leo gains self-confidence only when his actions are highly appreciated by other people.
These are inventive and determined people, they are excellent organizers, try to avoid routine work. Leo knows how to lead, is not afraid to become famous, knows how to draw attention to himself and impress others.
Typically, Lions have excellent health, and therefore they are successful in professional sports. They are charming and talented, love to cook, always sincere with others and do not hide their intended goals. Leo loves rivalry, but he is always oppressed by the failures of the weak. He is attractive in appearance, charming, in any company he is welcome, but at the same time Leo has many envious people.
Leo takes love relationships very seriously. The feeling of love can open the secret doors of the fiery nature of the sign.
Love combination
The paths of Cancer and Leo practically do not intersect in anything, and therefore a love relationship between them is unlikely. For example, restrained and unemotional Cancer prefers a quiet rest in solitude. An impulsive Leo, on the contrary, will go out with friends to nature on his day off or attend a party.
Cancer, experiencing a love feeling for Leo, will be vulnerable to perceive the refusal of his beloved to stay in the weekend house, will begin to be offended. This will only annoy the freedom-loving Leo, because he does not tolerate attacks on his freedom.
Conflicts will haunt this couple over the years. Both of them will have to compromise if they want to keep their relationship.
A lion with his fiery and passionate nature will always inflate an elephant from a fly, a balanced Cancer will try to calm a chosen one, adjust to himself that he will “blow up” Leo even more.
In the relationship of a girl born under the sign of Cancer, and a man Leo, the main problems will arise in the manifestation of feelings and emotions. A suspicious and vulnerable woman Cancer can be fraught with grudges, without making claims, shut itself in its own world. A lion who can’t get at all why his partner’s mood changed, will perceive her condition as a whim.
Sometimes he can be rude, quick-tempered in a relationship, offend his beloved with a word. Leo himself will quickly forget what has been said, but Cancer can remember this word for many years and worry about it all the time.
Women like Leo because of their charm, optimistic character, eternal positiveness and masculinity. Knowing these qualities of her partner, the Cancer woman, once again staying home at the weekend, will always think that her windy Leo, who again went to meet with friends, is cheating on her. Jealousy can be another stumbling block in the relationship of these two people.
A couple of female Leo and male Cancer face the same conflicts. This lady will never end up with fans, and a slightly melancholy Cancer will bite her nails, seeing how his beloved shines in the company of friends. Often a love relationship can develop after a childhood friendship. And then this couple has a perspective. However, even in this case, the Lioness sees her friend Cancer as a "alternate airfield." Over time, she is able to appreciate the sensitivity, strength, loyalty and reliability of her partner, but for this many years will pass.
If Cancer and Lioness meet in adulthood, then usually a slightly closed and mysterious Cancer attracts a woman of Leo with its mystery. He seems to her cold and impregnable, the more capable of subduing the Lioness, striving for an eternal struggle. However, she can win the heart of Cancer only by cunning. In contrast, the man Cancer is always serious about any relationship.
The prospect of family life
The marriage between Cancer and Leo will be accompanied by conflicts throughout its existence, however, in general, compatibility in family relations is not so unpromising. Cancer strives for vital stability, Leo's goals are also focused on creating a family that is prosperous in all respects. This perseverance brings two such different partners together.
Cancer always sees people from within, therefore it knows how to achieve its goal in a conversation with Leo so that he does not even suspect anything. The lion, in turn, protects the meek, as it seems to him, partner.
If we talk about the combination of a female Cancer and a male Leo, then in general, the union can be quite successful. The wife of Cancer always puts the reins of power on the shoulders of her husband, who copes well with these duties. Without options, the spouse will be the main in the family. This state of affairs suits both partners. However, a discerning wife will be able to stealthily direct her husband's energy in the right direction.
A lion gains freedom in marriage so beloved by him, an intelligent wife tries not to limit her husband to this, it is more convenient for her to remain in solitude and to do household chores while her husband is having fun with friends. The wise wife Cancer is unlikely to be jealous.
A man Leo knows how to earn money, but spends it more on himself, he does not even try to save. In turn, the prudent wife Cancer will take the family budget into her own hands, not forgetting to postpone part for a rainy day. Through the efforts of both partners, the family will not need.
To get used to the character of each other, the man Leo and the woman Cancer will need to live 4–5 years. This period is the most critical for spouses. If this milestone is successfully passed, then we can safely say that the marriage was successful.
The union of a female Leo and a male Cancer is not so prosperous. Success of a couple can only be achieved when the Lioness learns to restrain emotions and ceases to reproach her lover for his failure. Most likely, the wife will provide for this family. Her fiery character allows her to achieve great heights in her career. Housekeeping and child care will fall on Cancer's shoulders.
Bring spouses to help sex. In bed, they are both romantic, not against experimentation, have an active temperament. Their intimate life is always diverse and interesting.
The causes of the quarrels can mainly be Cancer jealousy. Often, he is jealous for a reason: the fiery Lioness, even having sealed herself by marriage, continues to flirt with representatives of the opposite sex. Despite his patience and fidelity, Cancer, having noticed this feature of his wife, may seek her a replacement on the side.
Only the insensitive Lioness can awaken the vindictiveness in Cancer, but in general it is a reliable and faithful spouse. Each act of a wife forces her husband to draw certain conclusions regarding her.
Friendship Relationships
In friendship, Leo and Cancer are quite compatible. Representatives of these zodiac signs with opposite characters complement each other: a too impulsive Leo softens under the influence of a more balanced Cancer, while Cancer himself always feels confident in the company of a friend.
So that the friendship of Leo and Cancer grows stronger every year, they should learn to avoid expressing grievances against each other and not charge the buddy with negative emotions. They do not need to try to adjust the comrade for themselves, the strength of their friendship lies precisely in the opposite of characters.
Leo leads an active lifestyle, he loves to travel, relax in nature, play sports. He dilutes Cancer's measured life with his energy, but he does not need to be zealous in this matter. If Leo will force Cancer to rest too often, then friendships will come to an end.
The home-stayer Cancer will support his friend in everything, will become a kind of “vest” for him.In a difficult moment for Leo, Cancer will always be able to find the right words for a comrade. However, he should remember that the return on his part will always be greater. Leo is a companionable young man, he is surrounded by a large number of friends, although he often appreciates Cancer more than others. Cancer is so devoted to friendship that usually he does not have more than 2-3 friends.
Work interaction
The business union of Cancer and Leo can lead to a successful business. The thing, again, is the opposite of these two business partners.
However, for the successful development of one's own business, several conditions must be observed.
- The head in this tandem will be Leo, since he does not know how to obey others. Often in ordinary human relations he is proud, independent and even aggressive, but in the implementation of a business project these qualities bring him success.
- Cancer is more calm and even in nature, it can be easier to negotiate with it. He always gently and without emotions listens to his partner and then expresses his own opinion. Leo needs to learn to listen to the sound thoughts of his subordinate, otherwise he will take a defensive position, in connection with which quarrels will begin to arise. Cancer, however, should be mindful of its insight and try not to conflict with Leo, but rather allow it to be commanded so that Leo himself believes in his leadership. Cancer can lead a partner stealthily, he will not even notice this trick.
- Representatives of both signs constantly need boasting, but praising the other for both is unusual. Therefore, they still should be patient and learn to sincerely rejoice in the victories of a partner and publicly express their approval. Both can not stand criticism.
- Both will become the generators of ideas in the business tandem: Leo will undertake the implementation of the project, will negotiate, and Cancer will try to calculate everything correctly and clearly in order to avoid even minimal risk. By the way, just the risk can cause a conflict between the two partners. Cancer in life and work is terribly afraid to take risks, but for Leo, risk is his life. Therefore, in this area, partners again need to find a compromise.
If all the conditions are met, then Leo and Cancer together will be able to implement a very promising business project that brings profit to both partners.
Child-Parent Relationship
Parent Cancer and baby Leo are pretty close, but the parent experiences a closer relationship. Cancer prefers constancy in family relationships, gives the child enough freedom. The child of Leo is satisfied with this state of affairs, he has been used to being in the spotlight since childhood.
Mom or dad, born under the sign of Cancer, are usually restrained, they hide their emotions under lock and key, while the baby Leo needs constant boasting. Therefore, in the family where the child is brought up, Leo, and one of the parents is Cancer, the child may feel underestimated.
A strong family is appreciated by both, from the side they seem very loyal to each other - as it is, in fact, is. Here they love family celebrations and invite other relatives not out of a sense of duty, but because they really miss them and honor family ties.
The main conflicts in relations between the mother of Cancer and the son of Leo arise when the parent shows some possessiveness towards the child and to some extent restricts his freedom, which Leo does not tolerate since childhood. In general, the boy will be the pride of his mother.
The daughter of the Lioness will become for mother Cancer the embodiment of frustrated hopes. A girl from an early age will be bolder and more determined than her mother, which mom will be very happy about. Nevertheless, in adolescence, the child will begin to show strength and independence of character so that relations with the mother can become tense.
Father Cancer is unlikely to become an authority on Leo’s son, the pope’s melancholy nature can affect the boy’s character in the form of passive egocentrism. However, a father devoted to family values infects this affection and offspring.
The daughter of the Lioness is more active and conceited than the tender father Cancer, so it is unlikely that a particularly close relationship between them will be possible. However, the girl will inherit from her dad important qualities: love of memories, the need for affection, a tendency to look at people from the inside.
A child born in the constellation of Cancer needs a constant rethinking of his actions. To avoid setbacks, he carefully thinks through everything and sometimes abandons his idea. This behavior may not appeal to the impulsive parent Leo, who is used to acting on the move, and even oppressing him. From here quarrels can arise in the family.
Weak child Cancer may be afraid of his overly emotional parent, become isolated, feel insecure - this is one of the possible options. Another development of events is also likely, when the parent's determination is transferred to the usually bewildered offspring.
Daughter Cancer and mother Lioness are able to become real friends. Mom will fully protect her child from all misfortunes, will try to amuse the girl and try to pull her out of the sink. Sometimes a mother can be hard when her daughter is weak. In general, relations between them remain warm throughout life.
The son of Cancer, the mother of the Lioness tries especially not to pamper, unlike her daughter. She is trying to make the child feel his importance and grow up a courageous young man. Often her attempts end in success: her optimistic disposition develops a more decisive character in the child.
Father Leo is extremely gentle with his daughter Cancer. His care and patronage makes the girl even more pampered and vulnerable. She may well be called "father's daughter." Perhaps, over time, this relationship will be a little less close, but in general, warm and gentle relations will always prevail between them.
Father will raise his son Cancer in severity. He can annoy and scare the boy with his perseverance. However, it is the father who can guide the child Cancer, unsure of his abilities, on the right path and help to deal with the future.
Possible conflicts
- Leo is very narcissistic, he considers himself to be the main person in his life, so Raku often lacks his attention. Nevertheless, Leo himself expects constant interest from a partner.
- Cancer intuitively knows that his partner is constantly in need of flattery, but, seeing that Leo is not trying to give something in return, he deliberately restrains himself from showing admiration.
- A working Leo pays a lot of attention to enhancing career growth, so he often does not find time for loved ones, including the touchy Cancer.
- The representative of the fire element has many fans of the opposite sex. Cancer, with good intuition, always knows when the chosen one found a hobby on the side.
- Sometimes Cancer's tendency to hide his emotions annoys Leo, more open to feelings.
- Restrained Cancer at some point may lose its patience from another partner's antics and pour out all its anger. After that, Leo recognizes his chosen one on the other hand and will be slightly afraid, which can lead to conflicts in relations.
