5 Amusing Traits of the Water Signs - Cancer, Scorpio & Pisces

In Astrology, every celestial being around us can have some kind of impact on our personality. Every zodiac sign is influenced by one of the four elements of astrology -Water, Fire, Earth & Air. These signs share some common traits among themselves and inherit the energy traits of their elements.

Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio & Pisces), for example, are known to be passionate, emotional and possess deep personalities, which represents the intensity and strength of water. Like the water’s nurturing nature, the water signs are also caring and gentle to the world around them. They often go out of their way to help others, and hence, are the most lovable signs of all.

To give you a better understanding of their immense personality; here are 5 traits of the water signs that will leave you amazed.

1.    They are Highly Intuitive

Due to their high emotional intelligence, water signs can always sense when something is wrong. This trait also makes the water signs highly reliable as they can understand their loved ones’ troubles without obvious communication.

2.    Their Trust Hangs on a String

Water signs easily trust people around them. As they are more on the emotional side, they are more empathetic and can let down their walls for others. But once betrayed, water signs could be the least forgiving ones.

For example - Cancerians are known to be the most emotional sign out of all. Like the depth of water, cancer signs like to dive deep into the emotions of themselves and others. Unfortunately, if they ever face betrayal, their loving nature can turn into an equally dreadful affair.

3.    They are Great Thinkers and Observers

Water signs are usually nonchalant introverts. At a party, these signs are more likely to sit and observe rather than being the centre of attention. This quality makes them great thinkers. But their introversion is also a double-edged sword.

Pisceans, for example, are classic over thinkers. They often lose their trail of thoughts and can makeup situations in their head. If Pisceans are suffering from low self-esteem, their thoughts could be highly self-critical and destructive. Hence, they sometimes crave approval from others.

4.    They are Highly Creative

What does Pablo Picasso, Shah Rukh Khan and Tim Cook have in common?

They all are Scorpios!

Although all water signs are considered creative due to their highly imaginative qualities, but amongst them, Scorpio takes the prize. Due to their strong sense of self, Scorpios are highly successful in turning their personalities into brands - as in the examples mentioned above.

5.    They can be least forgiving

Like we’ve mentioned earlier, betrayal is the ultimate sin to the water signs. But apart from shunning those who wronged them, water signs also tend to go on a self-destructive spree.

Just as stagnant water can harbor diseases, water signs can brood over a betrayal for a long time, which gives rise to self-doubt and resentment. In addition, these signs can build up extra walls around them to avoid further trauma, making them emotionally unavailable.  

Nevertheless, as much as nurturing water is, we must not forget that it is also capable of destroying all the other three elements. Water signs are peculiar about their likes and dislikes, and you should never try to test the waters on the wrong side.
