Water is flowing and takes on the shape of its surroundings. If we have an emphasis on the water element in our charts we are very much in need of involvement with others. We live by our feeling and intuitions and can tune into atmospheres and the feeling of others immediately.
Our imagination, sympathy and compassion are enormous. The sensitivity and vulnerability of watery people is immense. It is sometimes difficult for these people to maintain their separateness and they may often withdraw into themselves in order to avoid being hurt. If we have an over-emphasis of this element, we will live through other people and will be emotionally demanding in our relationships.
If we lack water in our charts, we are likely to deny the importance of the feeling life. We may find it difficult to adapt to the needs of others. Alternatively, these people may be overly involved with others and embarrassingly sentimental.
