MacGuire said Libra, Capricorn, and Pisces are suitable mates for Cancer. "Libra gives Cancer the detached perspective to help them not take life so personally, while still understanding that's what Cancer does and complementing their emotional investment in the relationship," he said. Cancer also "gains groundedness from Capricorn, helping them to keep their head above water while understanding and respecting their self-protective stance," he said. Lastly, in Pisces, Cancer finds someone who understands their emotional nature.
