Getting to Know the Water Signs of the Zodiac: Meaning, Traits & Characteristics

Each of the 12 zodiac signs belong to one of the four elements: fire, water, earth and air. That makes four triplicities in astrology and Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces make up the water sign trio.

What the Water Sign Means

Water is one of nature’s most powerful elements and the same is true in the field of astrology. It is the one element that can put out fire, stop the wind in its tracks and mold the earth.

If your sun sign is a water sign, you are a force to be reckoned with. Your greatest strength lies in your emotions and your vivid imagination.

Water Sign’s Traits & Characteristics

Being a water sign has its pros and cons. Like any other zodiac sign, Cancerians, Scorpios and Pisceans share strengths and weaknesses.

1. They have big feelings.

Water signs are big on emotions. They not only feel more. They also relish every wave of emotion like it’s their duty.

This makes them a bit moody, sometimes. They also have a tendency to wallow in self pity.

The good thing about people born under the water signs of the zodiac is their ability to ride their emotions and get back to their normal, composed self after the emotional tide.

2. They are perceptive.

These people are like psychics. They feel with body language. They read between the lines. They hear with the tone of your voice. And most of the time, their intuition is right!

Though this heightened perception is one rare gift, it can sometimes be a burden. Imagine knowing someone’s true intentions towards a friend and having to break it to your friend gently. It could make you sound crazy and sleazy!

3. They are compassionate.

They are one of the most understanding and compassionate people you’ll know. They take your situation to heart and do what they can to help out.

4. They are imaginative.

Water signs are dreamers. They are escapists – living another life in their fantasy world. They make great artists, writers and painters because of their overflowing creative energy.

5. They are thinkers.

They’re the type of people who get lost in their thoughts. They tend to overthink and overanalyze the simplest of things. Needless to say, they sometimes turn very simple problems into overly complex problems.
