Cancer and Scorpio form a trine aspect in astrology—the strongest positive aspect a pair can have. It means that they’re 120 degrees apart on the zodiac wheel and harmonize well with each other. Cancer is looking for “the one,” a partner they can settle down with. Scorpios are loyal and have an “all or nothing” approach to relationships that Cancer will appreciate.
Scorpio should work on being more open, giving Cancer the emotional vulnerability they want from a partner—and Cancer should give Scorpio the breathing room they need to comfortably open up.
They may take time to actually get physical, but that’s just because they both prefer to have an emotional bond first and foremost. Once they have it, they’ll be quick to initiate intimacy.
Scorpio and Cancer can raise their level of intimacy by having an honest talk about their preferences. In the bedroom, they can build trust as they progress slowly from tamer fantasies to more adventurous ones.
Cancer may struggle to understand Scorpio’s stubbornness, but their patience and empathy can help this couple push through lapses in communication.
Cancer can further win Scorpio’s trust by being reliable, accountable, and direct. This will allow Scorpio to relax and enjoy the relationship.
Cancer can coach Scorpio on emotional vulnerability, and Scorpio can make Cancer feel safe enough to open up in return. Both signs tend to get moody and pessimistic at times. If they make an effort to look on the bright side and focus on things to be grateful for (like each other), they can raise their partner’s spirits no matter what!
