Recently I wrote a blog post about Cancer Scorpio INcompatibility but the truth is, this match can work. Just like any of the pairings in the Zodiac can work.
But I wanted to write another post about it in case I inadvertently discouraged anyone out there, any little crabs or scorpions with a heartache or hard-on for their fellow sea creature.
What inspired me was coming home today and looking on my wall and seeing some stills from a play of mine, a short play, about a matador and a dancer.
In real life, one of the actors is a Cancer and the other, a Scorpio, both women. Also, in real life, in the theatre world, people tend to just say “actor” for men or women. None of his “actressy” stuff, you know?
I attended many of the rehearsals and at some point astrology must have come up in conversation 🙂 and that was when I discovered their Sun signs. And I was thrilled.
The Scorpio, the matador, I knew could go deep, just like the character. She asked great questions, always probing, trying to get to the bottom of the character’s motivations. And the Cancer woman felt everything so deeply and also got frustrated deeply when she felt she wasn’t “there” yet. She was sensitive, joking, self-protective, even skittish at times.
And the two of them together? They brought my words, my world, to life, and oh was I sad when the run ended, as it had to.
Whether the partnership works out in the end or not, I think these two signs are always drawn to each other, they recognize each other’s power which is the power of… authenticity.
Security-minded, self-protective, Cancer and Scorpio can secure each other, protect each other, make family, have great sex… 🙂
Oh God I am about to share another memory (so Cancerian of me) but I can’t resist. At my mother’s funeral (she was a Scorpio), her longtime Cancer lover threw a bouquet of red roses on her casket as it descended. This was a Jewish funeral and… such things aren’t done at Jewish funerals but… to make a long (and complicated) story short, there was some kind of unbreakable bond there, despite… everything. And I’ll save the Story of Everything for another time 🙂

Ok. Sorry, MP. I’m turning out to be a blog whore. One of those mornings I guess..where time is only metered by the size of your coffee cup.
That memory of your mother and her lover is so epic! The visual anyway. Amazing. And the matador up there, she’s got Scorpio eyes while the Cancer a soft, yielding face. What a feeling to give birth to your art. I hope there’s much more of that to come for you.
So. THAT Cancer, my Cancer. Well. Maybe it’s my true node in Cancer but good grief. He’s called me an organ of his. I get it. Just wondering which! (hee) Perhaps that’s similar to the Scorpio/Cancer compatibility. Intense, unflinching desire. Even when he’s close, in, it’s not enough.
EW, your comments are welcome 🙂 Whore or not LoL
Back ltr to respond! The subway awaits me…
Is he in another country? Or am I mixing him up with a different man from a different story?
I’m cancer sun with Scorpio influences. never dated a Scorpio man, but I was thrilled when my cancer guy asked me out. we even went on a camping adventure together. but the romance never got off the ground. within weeks, his old girlfriend from across the country came to visit, and I freaked out.
but it was truly romantic while it lasted. he brought me roses at work. on the morning of my birthday, he called and sang the whole “happy birthday” song. and on our camping trip, I awoke to him tenderly watching me sleep.
I was standing in my kitchen a couple months ago and out of the blue, he popped into my head. I was having a bad winter, and just the thought of him, and the few memories, brought me comfort.
I’m sorry about your mom, Moonpluto.
Aw, thanks Anita. No worries 🙂 Maybe I shld write about her more. Hmm. And I’m sorry about your lost Cancerian… sometimes thoughts of people from our past just show up like that….
I’m a Scorpio Sun (in the 4th) with Cancer Moon (in the 12th) and rising. I have a very strong affinity to Cancer men. It’s never gone well, I’m not sure why. I have Venus/Pluto conjunct in Libra in the 4th and a 1st house Leo Mars, maybe I come on too strong. For some reason I always seem to think it’s my fault and the Cancers have been okay letting me think that, despite being moved by the attention I give. I don’t get, and I’ve stopped trying but try as I might I have moments, especially when I’m near water where my thoughts drift to those Cancer men who touched me deeply. They RECOGNIZED me, the real me, you know? But for now I have bigger fish to fry. I wish I could believe that I could believe that Cancer Scorpio can happen to me, but in practice it’s very difficult. They do their thing, I do mine, they wander, I wander, and the paths rarely cross. But when they do it’s something so otherworldly, so special, but that could be my 12th house moon, forever pining, talking.
You are a super water power, mucha agua! I hope you find what feeds you. The Scorps definitely SAW me, recognized me. Never led to happiness though. Odd, where we wind up finding it.
Aspects are really important too. I mean, I’m no Scorpio (only Neptune there) but the Moon Pluto thing, ya know 🙂
Also, You could find yourself falling for a Mars in Cancer or Cancer Moon or…. you get the picture….
