I have had a few deep convos with many water signs and I feel like most of them agreed that their intuition is right (Air and Earth signs would disagree), and that in fact, everyone's intuition is almost always right about a situation. For example, if you think someone might be cheating on you, you are probably right. If you think someone has a deep connection with you, you are probably right. ETCIn my opinion, things usually go wrong when you have a gut feeling and you ignore it. Do any other water signs feel like I do? (I'm a sun in Cancer) ------------------

I'm inclined to agree. Not a water sign but Scorpio rising.
I'm usually right about theories.
But I'm Venus/Neptune and Pisces on my 5th so I'm not always right about idealizing guys. IP: Logged |

I have most of my planets in Earth. Sun in Taurus, Jupiter in Taurus, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Moon in Capricorn, South Node in Virgo. Furthermore, I have my Ascendant ruler Mars in Aquarius, my Venus, Mercury and Chiron in Gemini. I only have Pluto, my IC and my North Node in water signs. Though I always trust my gut instincts, have always had paranormal experiences and thoroughly believe in that which is intangible and unexplainable. To answer your question, yes I think it's best to follow your intuition. IP: Logged |

I think we're all intuitive, regardless of our sign, but some people discard their gut feelings while others pay attention to them.Like most of us here, I try to pay attention to my intuition - it's proved right in most cases. It's not always easy to recognise though; but usually when I have a bad feeling about something / someone, I'd better take that into consideration and act accordingly. The few times I went against my gut feeling.. things ended up in a bad way for me (not BAD bad, but you know, left me feeling negative some way or another).

I find it odd how the majority of people say their intuition is usually right while the majority of people I actually see have a very faulty intuition (including many who say otherwise, and will insist their intuition is right even when confronted by hard evidence to the contrary), or at least as many misses as hits. I suspect a selective memory at work, perhaps more of that "I feel it's so, so it MUST be so" thinking at work. I do realize that intuition is valuable and that it can also be honed, but most people are not the Jedis they think they are. IP: Logged |

I'm a Pisces with a Cancer rising and the majority of my signs are water. The only time my gut is wrong is when I ignore it. I've learned the hard way to listen to my instincts even when they make no sense. IP: Logged |

Being a Scorpio moon and being attached to how people feel about me lead me to thinking I could read peoples minds. I got too confident in my scorpio moons description of me and thought I could read peoples feelings better than I actually could. One time I saw a person close to me look at me like he was angry and I never asked if he really was and I just assumed that it was because I was trying to be more dominant then him and that I was somehow disrespecting him in front of his girlfriend because I had no restriction on how I was acting so I may have came off as rude. I made all these assumptions even though nothing was said. Theres been many times where I told people I thought they were thinking bad thoughts about me and they said they werent. Ive been a paranoid person. However sometimes I can tell if something unusual is up with a person. One time a friend came into my room and I could instantly tell she said something about me, most likely negative, to her other friend. Of course I didnt know this until I asked her a few times and she said she did say something and then she quickly changed the subject. Anyway Im sure that all humans are quite intuitive nevermind the water signs like someone said above. IP: Logged |

I'd agree. No one likes to think their intuition, even when paid attention to, is off-base. Your Jedi comment made me laugh, too. I also noticed how this started out as an (implied) water sun sign thread. Nevermind that you have to take into account an entire chart, lol.

I have natal moon and venus in the 12th (water influence,) cancer rising and a lot of neptune aspects. Moreover, my progressed venus and jupiter moved to cancer in the 12th. ...basically I have a lot of water. I feel I am VERY intuitive and can read between the lines easily about a person or situation. I have tried in the past to ignore my gut, but that ends up in disaster. My lesson in life: follow my heart and my gut..don't ignore it, my instincts are almost always right!BTW, I also have a grand trine fire in my natal which I guess makes me very intuitive as well!

I've always thought intuition was simply putting 2 and 2 together without realising it, something a lucid air sign can't comprehend.  IP: Logged |

lol actually, no. From searching astrologers on YouTube, it's been pointed that Moon in Aquarius is one of the most intuitive placements. I think some might be confusing psychic (water) with intuitive (air and fire). IP: Logged |

Actually, I can, which I pretty much said so above about how it can be valuable and honed. An easy example was I'd entered a bar I'd never been in before waiting for someone to show up and I KNEW a guy in sight of me was a drug dealer when I hadn't even spoken to him and I got to wondering how I knew that and it was just how watchful & wary he was (of course I'd been around many drug dealers before by then) he had that hungry look, he was looking for something and it wasn't sex (perhaps because he looked more at faces unlike most guys, tended to look at guys more, and didn't show any arousal while doing so), and he left with more than one person briefly before returning where he was. And then I found confirmation by a friend who bought from him. I'd say it was several subtle clues that allowed my subconscious to pick it up, and then as I pondered it I realized how my mind put it together so fast (and growing up as I did, including as a runaway on the streets, I was forced to make instant assessments like that). Unfortunately, there are a great many things that can throw it off, which is what most people who brag about their Jedi senses don't pick up on and never realize about themselves. And besides, I thought water signs were known to be especially prone to delusion (paranoia for Scorpios, rose glasses for Cancers &Pisces toward certain people, etc). IP: Logged |

Of course RAS would give that a thumbs up....Maybe she's forgotten that her Leo Moon might have the intuition she thinks her Cancer Sun has. IP: Logged |

Aquarius is known to intuit things out of thin air. Besides, we're beyond the basic math of 2 + 2.

Easy now my darling, I meant the "can't comprehend" in bonne humeur!  Water signs are indeed prone to delusion...such blurred lines and barriers with water signs. But any ways, I've found the intuition of air signs being the mind working fast, like you said, to reach a conclusion. Intuition of water signs is emotion coming together to form a conclusion. An air sign with accurate intuition would be able to reason a conclusion with small details - he was shady, he was shifty, he left with people = drug dealer. A water sign is I don't like him. They probably might not even end up with the drug dealer conclusion, just that he's untrustworthy. Then they warn their friends...then their friends find out he was a drug dealer...and the water sign says AHA! But yeeees, paranoia for Cancer, depression/flaw finding for Scorpio, idealisation for Pisces - it happens. #SHRUG IP: Logged |

That was an interesting distinction, thanks. Though I can't forget how an ex landlady was convinced my BFF was a drug dealer, which was so absurd I broke out laughing (which angered her as I'd insulted her "intuition, which is almost never wrong"), and all I can think of was my landlady didn't like that my BFF is black. That wasn't the only thing she was greatly mistaken about either. And I've met too many like her in my life, it's one reason I tend to second guess my own intuition because I see so many people swearing how Jedi-like their intuition is who are often wrong, sometimes absurdly so, and it makes me wonder if I'm not being just as deluded when my intuition tells me something (which is why I examine it as best I can when it hits me). And interesting enough, the few people who really do amaze me with their intuition don't go around saying how good it is. I wonder why?  (Maybe they intuitively understand they'll encourage others to continue to mistake delusion, ego/insecurity, and prejudice for accurate intuition?) IP: Logged |

probably because they don't fancy explaining why their intuition is good.I don't anyway. It's something personal. Besides I never 'warn' people against other people. It's stupid. I wouldn't want anyone to 'warn' me against someone I want to hang out with. IP: Logged |

I wouldn't either. Why ruin someone's chances to make a friend and who knows, they could become best friends. Inseparable. So why not let them find out on their own? IP: Logged |
