Outside of physical intimacy, a Virgo and a Cancer will face challenges in their communication. Since they process the world differently, they can’t naturally intuit what the other partner is thinking. To truly come together, a Cancer and a Virgo will need to show patience and listen deeply to each other.
A Cancer is also vulnerable and takes a risk from opening up, which inspires a Virgo. Virgo is very selective with partners and patient, a quality that makes a Cancer swoon. Both signs hunger for a deep connection that’s beyond a casual fling.
A Cancer also models how to articulate emotions. With Cancer’s lunar influence, a Virgo can end up saying something like, “I’m glad you took me out on a hike. I feel so energized by all the nature surrounding me. ” A Virgo is ruled by Mercury, a planet that drives them to communicate clearly. A Cancer will appreciate how precise a Virgo is when describing their experience and will get hooked on how vivid the details are.
A Virgo aims for perfect balance, so they will be completely honest with a Cancer and explain exactly what they need to feel safe in a relationship. A Cancer is just as transparent as water, the element that rules them, and isn’t able to hide parts of themselves from a lover. A Virgo will cherish every detail they learn.
Since a Virgo is a “mutable” sign, meaning that they are adaptable and consider every perspective, they’ll be able to realize that a Cancer’s understanding of the world is valid. A Cancer is a “cardinal” sign, or an “initiator” of the zodiac, so they can bring new ideas to the discussion. They’ll see that Virgo’s reasoning is an asset that is necessary for “big picture” concepts.
When a Virgo gets overwhelmed by many responsibilities or a lot of facts to consider, a Cancer will be there to remind them of what their purpose is. Any time a Cancer gets so caught up in feelings like sadness or frustration, a Virgo will outline actionable steps that can fix a situation.
A Virgo should hold back on offering solutions unless a Cancer wants that—instead, they should just ask how they can help. Since they feel nurtured by physical touch and unspoken ways to provide care, a Cancer will show a Virgo how powerful something as simple as a warm embrace can be.
A Cancer will actually feel a lot of solidarity for a Virgo since this water sign needs the opportunity to dive into their inner world, too. Once a Virgo does get a little distance, they’ll respect how relaxed a Cancer is about the situation and feel closely bonded to the water sign.
A Cancer should ask their Virgo partner why they chose their profession and learn about how the earth sign wants to make a positive impact. A Virgo should pay attention to how a Cancer uses their wits to serve other people and how much these acts actually replenish the water sign.
A Cancer is most likely to plan most of the dates since inspiration strikes so often. However, since a Virgo has such great attention to detail, they’ll probably be responsible for whirlwind getaways and unforgettable anniversaries.
