Cancer & Capricorn Compatibility
Cancer (कर्क) and Capricorn (मकर) — Complementary through effort (50%). the signs pull in different directions; the difference is the growth, not a verdict.
The three structural axes
| Element | water + earth — complementary elements | 2/3 |
| Modality | Both cardinal — both initiate — two leaders | 1/3 |
| Ruler maitrī | Candra & Śani are natural rivals — needs conscious effort | 1/3 |
Cancer is a water · जल · jala (water), cardinal · चर · cara (cardinal / movable) sign ruled by Candra; Capricorn is earth, cardinal, ruled by Śani.
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.
