Everything to Know About Water Signs 

The zodiac signs are comprised of four different elements — fire, earth, air, and water. Each of those signs is broken into three modes or qualities — cardinal, mutable, and fixed. Your element tells you just as much as your zodiac sign, which is why it’s important to learn yours. Here is everything you need to know about water signs:

What Are Water Signs?

Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are the three water signs. The water element represents creativity and sensitivity. Although these three signs have plenty in common, they have their differences as well.

Cancers are born between June 21 and July 22. They are compassionate, sensitive, and loving. However, they are moody, possessive, and secretive.

Scorpios are born between October 23 and November 21. They are wise, romantic, and spiritual. However, they are obsessive and paranoid.

Pisces are born between February 19 and March 20. They are empathetic, artistic, and emotional. However, they are passive, self-pitying, and pessimistic.

Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio, And Pisces) And Their Traits

Water signs are sensitive and creative. They’re the feelers of the zodiac. They care deeply about the people around them and want the world to be a safe, happy space for everyone.

Cancer is the cardinal water sign. The word cardinal means first. Cardinal signs start new things. This means Cancers are go-getters and planners. They take initiative. They’re ambitious and artistic.

Scorpio is the fixed water sign. Fixed signs are unchanging. They’re stable, firm, and adaptable. This means Scorpios are stubborn and stick to a certain routine. However, they are achievement-oriented.

Pisces is the mutable water sign. Mutable signs are flexible and go with the flow. They welcome other people’s ideas and will make a decision after hearing all the facts.

How To Win Over Each Sign:

Like each zodiac sign, each element responds differently to different situations. Here is the best way to win over each element:

Water signs want to know your deep, dark secrets. They enjoy it when others open up to them. It makes them feel like they’re wanted.

Earth signs want you to give them plenty of food and drinks. They want proof you care about them — and the best way to prove that is by spending money on them.

Fire signs want you to sit there and listen. They want to talk about themselves for hours on end because they have plenty to say.

Air signs want you to talk about politics with them. They want to have deep, intellectual conversations that give them a chance to show off their intelligence.

How To Manage Each Element:

Water signs need to surround themselves with people who give them the freedom to express their emotions. They cannot stuff down their feelings for long. They need a partner who admires their vulnerability.

Fire signs need the freedom to speak what’s on their mind. They aren’t going to keep you in their life if you try to quiet them or keep them in one place. They need the ability to move.

Earth signs won’t want to spend time with anyone unreliable. They want to surround themselves with people they can count on when times get tough. They don’t understand irrational thinking.

Air signs are social creatures. They need a partner who wants to go out on the town with them. They cannot date a homebody who wants to stick to the same schedule each week.
