Water Signs
by Naomi Bennett
Cancer
In the zodiacs around the world, Cancer is represented by a shellfish to
denote the soft, tender emotional self under the shell or wall of protection
created by this sensitive person. Cancerians are protective of their
feelings that can be hurt so easily. They are naturally introverted and can
be insecure. They have a need to be nurtured and taken care of by others.
It's easy for this need to turn into selfishness if they feel neglected.
They are very attuned to the emotional attitude of others and can read the
psychological atmosphere of a relationship instinctually. They sense and
understand others needs and can be excellent negotiators or traders. At its
most basic, Cancer stands for the fear of starvation, the hunger drive. It
rules the body parts of the breast and stomach, our first source of food
from the mother and the source of our hunger, the stomach. Cancerians are
masters at wealth building and the exchange of commodities. After all, money
and things can always be exchanged for food if necessary. Cancer is a Water
sign, ruled by the Moon, and associated with the breast and stomach.
Scorpio
The sign of Scorpio is represented by a scorpion, snake or eagle. The
scorpion and snake denote the primitive, instinctual sex drive that can be
destructive if untamed but the eagle represents its higher attributes of
mature paternal protectiveness and executive ability. This sign is the
emotional urge to procreate. It's more than just the sex drive. It's the
emotional drive to protect and perpetuate the family. Scorpios have natural
executive ability. They inspire loyalty and are loyal and true to family,
friends or employers they feel are their extended family. They can also be
jealous and protective. They can keep a secret if necessary. They can be
emotionally impulsive and be quick to anger. If a mistake was made, they
will right the wrong done to others. Scorpios tend to marry someone like a
family member or with a similar background. They are willing to compromise
rather than breech their ties with their family. They need to be part of the
family and they are protective of the family group. There can be intense
infighting within the family but they will defend the family from the
outside world. They generally have high energy and can get the job done.
Sexuality is high on their priority list and is right below the veneer they
show to the world. Scorpio is a Water sign, ruled by the planet Mars and
associated with the sex organs, urethra and anus.
Pisces
Pisces is denoted by two fish swimming in opposite directions and entangled
by seaweed. This is a picturegram of the mental state being in two world,
possibly in conflict or cross purposes. It is the sign of imagination and
the mystic. It's emotionally sympathetic to the survival of the weakest, not
the fittest. These are people who protect or befriend the underdog, the
weakest members of society, the nonconformist, the abhorrent or unusually.
It wants to better the condition of the less fortunate. It feels akin to the
animals. They are sympathetic and compassionate. Their feelings run deep
from an unknown source. They instinctively feel the emotional glue that
binds us together as a group. Their imagination comes from the depths of the
collective unconscious. They are artists, poets, musicians, actors or drug
dealers, criminals, spies and psychics. They are the most secretive of all
the signs. They know that life is not what society tells us. Rather than
confront the social structure, they go around it, avoid it, or deceive it.
They don't like to follow the rules. The sign is also associated with
illegal drugs, alcohol, smoking or any behavior that is habitual and
additive. Pisces can be comfortable with chaos and disorder in their lives
whether it's emotional or physical. Pisces is a Water sign, ruled by the
planet Neptune, and associated with the feet.
