Water

Water is shared by Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, and it stands for feeling, memory, attachment and what is sensed rather than argued. A chart weighted in water tends to read atmospheres accurately, hold on to the past, and take other people's moods on board, sometimes to the point of losing track of which mood belongs to whom. A chart light in water is not unfeeling, but it usually reaches emotion by way of thought or action and can be slow to notice undercurrents. Give the Sun, Moon and Ascendant additional weight in the count.
