The Cancer and Sagittarius combination brings together two very different people. It is possible for these two women to create a harmonious relationship, but quite a bit of work will be involved. Cancer, a water sign, needs emotional security above all else, and Sagittarius, a fire sign, must have complete independence and freedom. The Cancer woman approaches life through emotional rapport, the Sagittarian woman through the expansion of her mind. Obviously, there is a lot of potential for misunderstanding between these two.
The Cancer woman tends to be centered in her home and the Sagittarian woman is restless and always on the go. The Cancer woman may feel that her Sagittarius partner doesn't really care about her because the Cancer woman assoiciates caring with being together. The Sagittarian woman feels that she can be free to do things alone and still love her partner, and may feel at times hemmed in by the Cancer's emotional demands. The Cancer woman may also be deeply hurt by the outbursts of the Sagittarian's temper, and needs to learn that the anger is usually over as soon as the Sagittarian lets it out. The Cancer woman may be hurt for days while the Sagittarian woman has forgotten all about it.
Although these two women have difficulties together, with compromise they should be able to overcome them. The Cancer woman needs to learn to be more independent and demand less emotionally of her Sagittarian partner, and the Sagittarian woman needs to learn to be more empathetic of the feelings of her Cancer partner. The Cancer woman will broaden her horizons through her relationship with the Sagittarian; the Sagittarian woman will learn more about emotional intimacy through her Cancer partner.
Sexually, these two women will have to work to achieve some compatibility, as the Cancer needs so much emotional support and the Sagittarian needs so much independence. With Sagittarius the emphasis is more on the passionate, physical level, while the Cancer needs touching, tenderness, and intimacy. Sagittarius can learn to develop and appreciate this experience of deeper feelings and intimacy with a Cancer woman.
