You both need to take responsibility for the drama you're capable of stirring up. Self-awareness is crucial to this relationship's survival. For all the crashes, meltdowns and train wrecks this causes, you remain fiercely, enigmatically loyal. Cancer and Leo are heart-driven signs, and emotional highs are your breath of life. So what works about this match? It's packed with passion and romance, something you both adore. However, your knee-jerk reactions and hair trigger tempers cause the same amount of destruction. You literally can be as different as night and day. Leo rules the zodiac's fifth house of drama, and suffers from a terminal case of what relationship expert Alison Armstrong calls "center of the universe disease."

Your signs are both needy and bossy, but in different ways. CANCER + LEO (July 23 - August 22)Ĭan you say drama?

Problems also start when you take everything personally, or let your insecurities paralyze you.

You make fine travel companions, especially on trips involving water: surfing in Maui, an Alaskan cruise or skiing in Aspen. Push yourselves to leave the comfy Crabshell and take more risks. While you'll create a trove of sentimental memories and a lovely little family, you can become too insular together. With your love of culture, you may need a separate room for your collection of books, music and film.

You're both sensitive and nurturing, and you feel safe in each other's thoughtful care. This is a Water sign match that can work out swimmingly. Cancer is the zodiac's nester, and you'll quickly set up a home with a fully-stocked kitchen, cozy furniture, a hand-wired sound system and eclectic art. To respin the old joke: What do two Cancers bring on a second date? Answer: a U-Haul.
