Cancer Sheep - The Four Challenges
The Most Challenging Matches in the Western and Chinese Zodiacs

Of course, there is no certainty in human relationships. Just because an energy combination is frowned-upon by astrologers does not mean it cannot produce lasting contentment. So-called favorable energy can still result in discontent or frustration.

That said, for a soul born under the combined sign of Cancer Sheep, four matches from the combined Western and Chinese zodiacs are generally considered especially demanding. These Four Challenges draw together the most potentially fraught Western and Chinese zodiac connections.

Four Challenges Matches

  • The combative yet growth-oriented Square Western matches of Cancer /Libra and Cancer /Aries.

  • The confrontational and attention-grabbing Opposition Chinese match of Sheep and Ox.

  • The quicksand-like antagonism of the Chinese zodiac Adversary match, Sheep and Rat.

Each combined sign includes links to the relevant combined sign profile, the relationship horoscope for that sign with Cancer Sheep, and a sample list of celebrities born under the relevant combined sign.
