♈︎ Aries + ♋︎ Cancer compatibility
Fire meets Water: steam
Passion meets feeling — intense, never neutral. Handled well it's chemistry; handled badly it's scalding on one side and extinguishing on the other.
Their Suns square each other — ninety degrees of productive friction. This pairing works when both stop trying to win. Both are cardinal signs, so both want to initiate — expect leadership contests.
