How A Cancer Shows Love Towards Other Zodiac Signs, Per Astrology
It's all about the emotions.
The Cancer zodiac sign is the most emotional sign in astrology.
People born with their Sun in Cancer care deeply about your feelings. It is the most important part of a relationship. For them it is the sharing of emotions that causes them to become attached to the people they love the most.
Due to their intuitive nature, they have the ability to understand the emotions of others without having to being told. When they have decided that they love someone, they will use this ability to their advantage.
They learn when they need to create a safe space for their lover to open up or when they need to give them space to be themselves. Next to emotions, a Cancer horoscope sign cares about family.
Therefore, if you find yourself dating one then you will instantly notice how they are able to provide strength, support and security in their relationships, no matter the zodiac sign of their partner.
This might scare or even irritate some people at first, but they will soon appreciate a Cancer zodiac sign's motherly nature. They will grow to love how a Cancer is able to create a safe space for them to open up and be themselves.
A Cancer lover won’t waste time trying to change their partner. They will simply accept them for who they are and use the information they receive about their partner over time to learn how to better interact with them.
They want a healthy relationship that will last. This makes Cancers a desirable sign to be with. Overall, when a Cancer truly loves someone they will always be willing to compromise to make the relationship work no matter what.
This is the only logical option when they have dedicated themselves to someone. Here is how a Cancer shows love to other zodiac signs based on astrology.
ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
The signs of Cancer and Aries are ruled by Mars and the Moon. Although these two signs don't always see eye to eye, their intentions are always pure. Cancers and Aries understand and respect each other's differences which allows them to recover from any misunderstandings.
When a Cancer is in love with an Aries they will do their best to try and better recognize and show emotion to their Aries partner. A Cancer will do this by asking an Aries less questions about their feelings and by giving them space.
An Aries will appreciate this, as they won't feel like they are being forced to settle down before they are ready. In doing so, an Aries will be more likely to trust a Cancer and believe their feelings which can only make the relationship stronger.
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
It is touch that connects a Cancer and a Taurus. Their relationship is built on the feel of one another as they both value intimacy. A Cancer needs to feel close to their partner, and a Taurus just so happens to be the sign of physical pleasure. There is an even trade off that takes place between these two signs.
A Taurus will give a Cancer the tenderness and security they need to fully trust a partner. In turn, A Cancer will give this love back by taking care of a Taurus emotionally. This Water sign will create a safe space for a Taurus to open up to them.
A Cancer understands that a Taurus needs time to build trust and will have no problem being patient and waiting to earn it.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini is a sign ruled by Mercury. This means that Gemini born individuals need to be free. This can be quite a task for a Cancer, but they understand that if they don't wish to ruin the relationship that they have to give them what they want.
A Cancer in love with a Gemini will understand what their Gemini needs and act accordingly. This includes giving their Gemini lover enough room to channel their inner child without fear of being judged.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer's are experts when it comes to achieving intimacy. So when two Cancers are together they don't need sex or words to feel connected to one another. They find pleasure in the quiet moments.

LEO (July 23 - August 22)

Cancers show love by taking the time to learn what their Scorpio needs emotionally to feel safe and secure.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
