Gemini & Cancer

The home-loving Cancer may find the social-loving Gemini too difficult to make this a successful relationship. While Gemini is constantly on the alert for change, Cancer is satisifed with becoming a truly domesticated mate. On the other hand, Cancer's moodiness may be far more than Gemini cares to cope with. Compatability here is actually a little better where the female is Gemini and the male is Cancer, particularly if there are several children to occupy the time of the Gemini female. Since Cancer is driven by emotion and feelings and, in general, prefers the constant, Gemini's unstoppable movement will prove to be very unsettling to this combination. However, this can prove to be an excellent pairing if the Gemini native is ready to settle down, since the passionate side of Cancer's nature will fulfill Gemini's physical needs, and the cheerfulness of Gemini's nature will brighten Cancer's disposition.

Nevertheless, by and large, this pairing has little in common to make for a long-term relationship. Gemini's tendency to "play at love" wounds the overly-sensitive Cancer and Gemini's flirtations will make a Cancer partner feel very insecure. Any affair between these two is likely to be a volatile one, since Cancer needs security and domesticity while Gemini loathes being "tied-down." While Gemini may initially be attracted to Cancer's emotional sensitivity, at the end of the day, the Gemini individual will probably find it to be too stifling.
