Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are all ruled by water element. Individuals born under the Water signs are known for their empathy, sensitivity, and compassion. In the watery sphere, rivers run deep and nothing is shallow. These people want to dive into the mysteries of life. Water’s restorative and reviving properties become clear as we picture ourselves soaking in a hot tub after a tiring day. When it comes to personal relationships, those born under the Water signs operate as a safe haven for those they care about since they have an uncanny knack for sensing and responding to their needs.
The Moon, whose sign is Cancer, rules our feelings, as it should. The Cancerian soul relies on its deepest emotions, memories, and instincts, which are always on high alert (cardinal). The Lunar woman is attuned to life’s ebb and flow. Softness, vulnerability, and a general atmosphere of tenderness strikes them. All Cancers, at their core, have an intense desire to be indispensable. Cancer provides strong defence, care, and support, revealing profound affection. Crabs may appear tough on the outside, but don’t let their tough exterior fool you; they’re actually quite delicate and easily hurt.
Scorpio is like a frozen lake; without an ice pick, it’s hard to tell what lies beneath the icy surface. Scorpio’s stillness and coldness are exposed by the physicality of death, but don’t be deceived into thinking they don’t care; as a water sign, Scorpio always feels everything deeply. Dark and enigmatic, there is always more going on under the surface.
Scorpios can take a while to warm up, and it’s important to remember that they can swing wildly between passionate intensity and icy coldness. No one else will, however, love and loathe with the same intensity. The depth and passion of Scorpio’s Love is beautifully captured in a poem by Ron S. King:
When Scorpio loves, it’s to full effect
No deeper and passionate can love feel
So hot and cold are emotions to select
This fire and ice, love of all time’s steal
There is a strong need to partner care
A joint demand for loyalty and committing
A new beginning with just love to share
A new-life time for love that’s fitting
A Scorpio’s love is powerfully intense
Sensual and sexy with strong desires
One has to burst through the wall’s defence
To discover the burning passion-fires
Awareness has to made of base emotions
The tides of jealousy and nature’s case
Any dominating force with fixed intention
That cuts the nose to spite the poor face
But powerful love is Scorpio’s trait
To love strong and deep, to last so well
To share all the glory with a chosen mate
Scorpio love is between heaven and hell
Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, rules Pisces, whose feelings tend to be as chaotic and unsteady as the water itself. It’s hard to tell where the sea begins and ends because it seems so big and limitless from far away. When the water is raging in a storm, it is both beautiful and frightening, and no one is safe. You now have a basic understanding of why Pisces expresses such strong feelings: the Neptunian forces at work are utterly beyond their control, and the unconscious is ruled by them. The realm of water is rife with dreaming, imagination, and emotion. Pisces drinks themselves into a temporary state of lunacy, bewilderment, and despair whenever they’re feeling down and out. There is a deep sadness beneath Pisces’s blue waves, despite the sign’s reputation for mystery and secrecy. Piscean compassion is limitless, and their emotional range is unmatched; but, the water can distort and obscure their vision at times. You just can’t seem to wrap your head around a Piscean, and that’s part of the allure.
