Capricorn-Cancer is pretty protective, it’s about feeling like you’re the closest emotionally to each other that they’re mostly vulnerable about and want to be reminded on/proven on. Their ‘protectiveness’ can lead into ‘restrictions’ so it’s not like they’re outwardly showing they’re jealous, they’re just careful/being thorough/not taking chances. (Some might not even say it because they see their ‘vulnerabilities’ as having feelings for someone/caring about them, so most of the time they go through their sadness/jealously alone before they bring it up to anyone to hear/counsel.) 

Letting them know what you can stand and what you’re firmly ‘no’ about– not just about them but about people in general reassures them. They like to give advice, so make sure you don’t take it the wrong way and just– take a moment to see beneath the layer and appreciate them. They want to hear your thoughts/opinion, but you have to understand too. 

Take your time, nod slowly, just take a moment to really think about the words and don’t be afraid to reflect/interpret what they said back to them to be sure. They usually have no problem correcting if something’s missing (gently) or telling you if you got it right (they’re pretty picky so if you got it right then you probably did, dont worry about them ‘holding’ back) 

They want vulnerability and intimacy but understand that they also think it’s their kryptonite. Caring for them is to ‘prove’ to them that your connection is real and it’s strong. Just as they feel for you, they’re unsure if you feel for them in the same way sometimes because they doubt themselves/their ability to understand people fully. It’s the looks in your eyes, your tone of voice, the tiniest touch that reassures them. Caring for them to quell their insecurities (as much as you can do) comes in two parts;

First is this intimacy moments where they feel ‘connected’ to you again. It gives them purpose, like a refresher of why they like you so much in the first place. They want to be reminded that they’re important but in the quietest ways. It doesn’t have to be proclaimed or constant, as long as it’s there and it’s fulfilling inside.

Second is more about everyday connection. You don’t have to be intimate all the time, but when you aren’t it’s always good to have a stable ‘platonic’ relation with them. Let them know what type of person you are, what’s happening right now, listen to their opinions and work together, let them participate in helping you when you make conclusions for yourself. What they want is to help, and if they know what you’re doing/how you’re going then it also ceases their worries/insecurities as well.

If their problem seems overwhelming (considering Capricorn-Cancer opposition and Virgo-Pisces opposition) try to focus on the Capricorn/Cancer part rather than the Virgo/Pisces part. With Virgo/Pisces, they have to deal with themselves (come to an actualization themselves). Capricorn/Cancer can invoke a defensive stance or strong opposition, but if you appeal to their rationality/logic or values they tend to listen to you better/work through things. (Mutables are notoriously opinionated, while the two Cardinals are just intensely stubborn.) 

I hope this makes sense?? 💕 Good luck!! 💕💕
