How Water Signs Deal with Sadness and Loneliness

Cancer is the sign of the home and family. Usually very private people, Cancer has a fragile sense of self and they require a few deep relationships with people that they can trust completely.

Cancer June 22–July 22
Cancer is the sign of the home and family. Usually very private people, Cancer has a fragile sense of self and they require a few deep relationships with people that they can trust completely. Without these emotional outlets, Cancer’s naturally depressive nature turns in on itself and they’ll retreat even farther into their shell. They avoid answering the phone and spend most of their time watching television and playing video games and reading books to avoid dealing with their problems. At their lowest Cancers can feel hopelessly isolated and alone even if they have people all around them.

They can feel misunderstood and struggle to find people that they can relate too. They may not even let on to those around them that they feel this way and can act as if everything is totally fine despite things eating them up inside. When a Cancer has the blues, they almost always try to find a friendly shoulder. They must realise that they can handle it, else considerable depression can last a long time. Though surrounding themselves with family and support is a cure, yet the main thing the Cancer must avoid is retreating into their shell, moping and expecting other to read their minds. 

Scorpio October 24–November 22
Scorpio is very much in control of their own mind and heart. They don’t crack easily, unless they’re forced to spill all their secrets. When Scorpio finds all their layers stripped bare, their innermost thoughts and feelings exposed to someone they don’t trust, the sense of vulnerability can break them. On a bad day, the Scorpio can get quite emotional becoming overcome by spells of sadness. The lows can be quite tough for them because their emotions are intense meaning when they are low they can be really low. They dye their hair or get tattoos. They splurge on new outfits or a new car. They use money and change as a way to feel better, if only for a fraction of a second. However they tend to be able to ‘bounce back’ a lot faster than some of the others. 

Pisces February 20–March 20
Pisces relates to everything and everyone through their emotions, making them already prone to instability. With their highly empathic nature they can sense what others are feeling and share these emotions as if they were their own. They wallow and suffer in silence as they really don’t want to make a scene about it, not wanting anyone else to feel bad. Usually, their depression is because they will not fight for their own rights as they feel a built-in attraction to martyrdom or sacrifice.

On a bad day Pisces can get so lost in the darker side of their mind to the point that they feel like they are having a full on existential crisis. They feel every negative thing all at once and it can lead to them feeling extremely anxious and isolated. They avoid replying to texts because they don’t have the energy to socialize. They drop off the face of the planet. Pisces needs to be very aware of the boundary between their hearts and the rest of the world because they can easily become emotionally over-stimulated and lose themselves in the chaotic mess.
