Sun in Cancer Moon in Sagittarius Compatibility
This post looks at the compatibility between the combination of Sun in Cancer Moon in Sagittarius.
Sun in Cancer loves to be needed, and Moon in Sagittarius needs to be free. This is a tricky combination that can start with Cancer steering the relationship towards a domestic union, and end with Sagittarius struggling to escape.

Sun in Cancer is a domestic sign, and he’ll probably want to create a home with his partner (once she earns his trust).
At the end of the day, he’s happiest with a place where he can curl up and feel safe with his lover.
Moon in Sagittarius
Moon in Sagittarius needs options. Intimacy does not come easily to this Moon sign, because her ideal domestic scenario involves being able to up and leave whenever she feels like it.
This doesn’t fly with most partners, so it’s best that she have a lover who (at the very least) is not clingy. A partner who is also a travelling companion would be even better.
A traditional home with prescribed gender roles will suffocate her, but a setup that does not make heavy emotional demands will bring out her buoyant, fun-loving side.
