Cancer and Sagittarius dynamics

I was wondering if fellow cancers have strong friendships with Sags as well, or Sagittarians with cancers. I realized that more than two thirds of my close friends are Sagittarians and they keep adding to the circle. I'm not sure if I can call that sheer coincidence anymore.

More than half of my exes are Sags as well, but that's a combo that I don't see working for myself in terms of romance anymore.

From my cancerian perspective what I appreciate most about my Sag friends is that I can talk with them for hours and go from the most serious topics to the most hilarious and back. They will both listen to you and knock sense into you when needed. If you're in need for a friend, they'll be the first to show up for you.

There's some things I don't agree with or that are worrisome to me that most of them have in common too.

Anyone else with similar experiences?

I think its your leo moon ! that makes you close with saggies 😄 ...I like saggies unfortunately it never really gets as deep as I would like 😄 but they are funny and interesting matter a fact a saggie girl taught me all about astrology 😄

I have met probably hundreds of sags and one of my closest friends is a sag, that's it, just one. They dont tolerate moodiness well and the one friend I do have thinks I'm joking when I get moody and it instantly snaps me out of it, so we work.

They are good to have on your side and invite to parties.

Sagg's are ALL bad for me. Starts out like we should be great friends - compatible.

Over time I realize they are just polar opposites and too inconsistent as friends. End up as something just short of enemies. Love/Hate.

Speaking of male/male. Never date or had interest in a Sagg girl that I can recall.

That's interesting. I wonder how gender plays into this. My Dad's a cancer and my brother a Sag. My Dad is not his biological parent but they are incredibly close, yet things can get really tense between them at times. My brother doesn't like my Dad's moodiness much and my Dad thinks my brother is emotionally repressed. But over all they deeply love each other.

My sister in law, also a Sag, is completely different. She has definitely become another daughter to him and they both vibe really well.

yes, its your leo moon

How about you, since we share this placement? 😉

never had any problems with cancers

the guys are good friends, the women are hot and passionate

I feel like Sag and Cancer couples are similarly underrated just like Aquarius and Cancers - I have seen many of those couples. I just don't know whether some of them last forever

Funny that you say that, my sister (Aquarius) has been with her husband (Cancer) forever.

My Sag dating experience has always been the same in the way that friendship just works better for me. If the Sags I met were a little more firy like some of the Aries or Scorpios, that'd be perfect.

Im convinced the only sign that can "reel in" Sags is someone with a Capricorn placement. They seem to be the only sign that can get Sag to slow their roll somewhat in terms of comittment without feeling trapped . I guess the patience Caps exhibit and letting Sags just do their thing out in the world makes Sags want to be more committed without a word really having to be said. Cancer's will press the issue and it will turn a Sag off over time even though the initial attraction will be strong. You can't just dump your emotional baggage on them or they will feel smothered over time yet they are great to put you in better spirits and great friends to have "for a season". You will feel like when they give you their time its really worthwhile and they truly want to be there.

My Pisces moon is very attracted to their energy while my Cancer Sun makes me attractive to them. At the end of the day the only Sags that I have had any kind of compatibility with relationship wise with oddly had a Capricorn moon. They come across like they have a deep buried sadness somewhere but others would never know it. I sort of respect it as I feel its a better way to handle emotions than what I usually do.

My only real problem with Sags is that you can't really tell them your personal business or other people end up finding out somehow. They are able to get Cancers to spill the beans very easily with their fun nature yet won't find them anywhere to be seen once they are truly done with you. They move onto other people super fast but it doesnt seem malicious at its core.

Firy like Scorpios? What do you mean?

In my case I do better with cancer women when it comes to romance.

Interesting. My sag brother is with a very patient capricorn. But he still considers his sag ex-wife the love of his life. Patience is definitely a big thing. However the "unloading" depends. It's been a Sag that has been closely by my side during this breakup. In terms of my exes however it's partly true. But that's a longer story. I actually feel that my Sag friends are the ones who sustain friendships the longest. They're not necessarily good at reaching out a lot, but it's easy to pick the friendships up again after weeks of "sorry, I've been busy". Which is perfect for me, because I don't have to feel guilty about being with my thoughts somewhere else.

What do you think about the cancer sun causes this attraction? I've never intentionally sought out any of the Sags in my life. They've usually walked up to me.



@TheSag

I have to preface that Scorpios aren't favorite sign at all, because there's often a certain bad temper. (I didn't mean firey in terms of elements, but simply behavior.) But the ones I know are very passionate and vocal.

I think it's because as a cancer I can deal better with someone who expresses emotions, even anger, than someone who holds them in. Emotions are a language I can read, but silence makes me feel lost in translation at times. My brother for example, it takes a lot to get him to open up about how he feels. I can tell and I call him out, but he often laughs it off, then he gets mad and then he finally gives in. But only of you don't stop to push.

Romantically I easily fall for Sags and Virgos. But Sags are much harder to navigate.

The best lessons Sagittarius taught me are

- Not to give a single fuck about what others think of you

- Do not accept judgement

These are amazing lessons that can serve us well. I am jealous that it comes so easy for them.

It's weird, but l think theres definitely a link between Cancers and Sags, and Cancers and Aquas....it's inconjunct, but more than that, it's Cancer inconjuncts specifically, as if the domestic circle is directly connected to the stars. The movie Star Wars comes to mind, where the contrast between the vastness of space and the comfort of an isolated home is accentuated.

Sag women are pretty exciting, especially when their furnaces are burning hot. A lot, and I do mean a LOT of carefree spontaneity comes with that. After they've settled down, and those flames die down a bit, I have found them to be quite boring. Not necessarily a bad thing, especially if pursuing something with substance and longevity. I've just found it so crazy how they go from end of the spectrum to the other in a very short timespan.

I can't speak for the sag men since I cannot recall any that have come and/or gone.

I agree about the reaching out part, they normally don't do that unless you initiate it from the Cancer standpoint and that can make you feel like you care about the friendship/romance more than they do. Like I said most of the things they do aren't malicious and they don't even realize they are doing it. They aren't really trying to ignore you, they just want their hands in a bit of everything when it comes to life.

You are correct however in that they normally seek out a Cancer as we have something they feel like they will need once they sowed their biggest wild oats. Eventually the stallion realizes it needs a peaceful place to come home to after complete burnout. That is why I think Sags/Cancers work the best when it starts out where they are both away from each other for periods of time working on life goals away from each other. Think of being away in boarding school the military or modern day truck driving. Alot of freedom in the beginning and later on once you get each others natures you are able to enjoy each other on a daily basis or the small time you get to share together.

I also believe they are able to make friends easily so there isn't a longterm need just to have a small group of super loyal people like it is to a Cancer and we can't understand that off that bat. They prob go through periods where they have a certain group but then they will have a whole entire different group a years later who are totally different. Most of my group is 10/15 years or more of the same people. Sags seem to collect friends like baseball cards to put in a book for a rainy day yet its hard for them to put a poster on the wall of their absolute favorites like Cancers can do. They just have so many things they want to experience in life and want it to always be fun. If its no longer fun to them their spirit is completely broken and they lose purpose. That is where feeling trapt comes into play. That is why its important for a Cancer to create scenerios where your not always having to be around them, they reward you doublefold for letting their freedom not have to take a backseat unless its on their terms.

also alot of sexy women i like are sags

I'd say in friendship it's not the strongest connection but they can manage and get along fairly well

Me and my Sag divorced after 15 years. I still don't know what to think about them. She will swallow all your moods. Basically no moods. Very weird, romantic sex. Cancers find them very pretty. Their faces and hair will seem extremely beautiful. Best hips and legs on a woman. Small, very good looking breast. Stallions.

We Cancers (Leo rising specially) can seduce a Sag without any work. The relationship is not really beneficial. It is more like 2 innocent people being happy with each other. If I had to do it over, I think I would do it again. Their destiny is freedom. They suck in relationships after the honeymoon, or right after kids. They can move a mountain when in love.

They are blunt, not honest. Blunt = rude, rude = lack of empathy.

They never lie, but they can be cunning and seductive.

That's an interesting take on the romance aspect. I have kept ending up in relationships exclusively with Sags (3) from my late teens to just 3 years ago. Then I had a very brief stint with a Cancer, followed my a Scorpio and then met my Virgo-Soulmate-Ex. Now I'm being comforted in my heartbreak by my Sag bestie. So it's just a very strong and weird presence all around me. Aside from trying to get me to get out there and date again (which is just way to early for me), she's being the most helpful friend anyone could wish for after a break up. Dedicated pretty much all her time to me, lots of cuddles, distractions, laughs and summer planning...

There's definitely a magnet between Cancer/Sag. I have a few friends who are Sags, and we always get along great. We're constantly learning from each other, and they tend to mellow out my nervous energy and I tend let them express their deepest emotions/fears openly without judgement. I dated a Sag for two years. Also, my Mom is a Sag and my dad is a Cancer.
