Compatibility

Cancer and Pisces

Cancer holds the boat steady while Pisces looks at the stars in the water.

Together

Water and water, the tide and the deep, and the most tender pair in the zodiac. Cancer has a shell, a home and a plan for dinner. Pisces has an imagination and a talent for appearing exactly where they are needed before anyone knew they were needed. Together they make a world softer than the one outside, and both are grateful for it daily.

Cancer is cardinal, so it steers. Pisces is mutable, so it flows. This is a gift. Someone decides where the boat goes, and the other makes the trip beautiful.

Love

Pisces loves Cancer's loyalty and the way Cancer remembers how they take their tea. Cancer loves Pisces' gentleness and the way Pisces never mocks a feeling. There is a lot of crying in this relationship, most of it happy, much of it at films.

Friendship

The friends who know each other's dreams in detail and are a little shy about telling anyone else.

Work

Kind and creative. A small studio, a cafe, a place where people come in sad and leave a little better. Someone outside the pair should look at the prices, because neither will want to charge a friend.

Where it breaks

Too much water, not enough shore. Both avoid conflict, both drift into moods, and two people sheltering each other from the world can forget to go out into it.

The frog's verdict

Five stars, with the warning that comes attached. Every week, do one thing in daylight with other people. Love this deep needs a strip of dry land to stand on.
