It’s time to turn up the temperature with the best sex positions for Cancer. The fourth sign of the zodiac, water sign Cancer-born between June 21 and July 22-is known to be emotionally giving, compassionate and sentimental. The Crab usually brings this caring, generous nature into the bedroom, where they’re big fans of pleasuring their partners, sometimes going so far as to prefer giving over receiving.
Ruled by the maternal moon, Cancers also love snuggling and prioritize foreplay, enjoying sensual touch and kissing almost as much as lovemaking. But don’t get it twisted: Crabs may love slow, soft, romantic sex, but they also enjoy getting playfully rough and taking charge. In fact, the term “affectionately dominant” was probably created by or for a Cancer!
The catch: Because the Crab’s emotions reign supreme, they can go from being the most enthusiastic lover to full-on self-isolation if they’re feeling cranky or blue.
Here, five sex positions that will fire on all cylinders for an adoring Cancer, plus toys to spice ’em up.
