How love can show up with Venus in Cancer
With Venus in Cancer, love is often closely tied to feeling at home. You may long to find a home in a person and show affection through care, remembering small things and emotional warmth.
What may attract you: gentleness, loyalty and the feeling of being truly accepted. Coldness or unpredictability can quickly make you withdraw. Trust may grow slowly for you, but then it lasts.
One possible lesson: saying your needs openly instead of hiding them between the lines, and not only caring for others but letting yourself be cared for.
