Cancer & Aries Compatibility
Cancer (कर्क) and Aries (मेष) — Complementary through effort (50%). the signs pull in different directions; the difference is the growth, not a verdict.
The three structural axes
| Element | water + fire — different tempos, growth through contrast | 1/3 |
| Modality | Both cardinal — both initiate — two leaders | 1/3 |
| Ruler maitrī | Candra & Maṅgala — one-way friendship | 2/3 |
Cancer is a water · जल · jala (water), cardinal · चर · cara (cardinal / movable) sign ruled by Candra; Aries is fire, cardinal, ruled by Maṅgala.
Sign-level compatibility is a structural sketch, not a prediction about two people. Real synastry weighs the Moon, seventh house, Venus/Mars and daśā across both full charts.
