Some people react intensely to the slightest changes around them, while others take far more to be emotionally stirred. According to astrology, the zodiac sign under which we’re born can significantly influence how we express and experience emotions. Although everyone has their moments of weakness, there are signs that particularly struggle with emotional regulation—whether overwhelmed by sadness, anger, or anxiety. Here are the two signs most often mentioned when it comes to a lack of emotional control.
Cancer – Control Their Emotions
Cancers are known for their sensitivity and deep emotions, but it’s precisely that emotional depth that can completely overwhelm them. When they feel misunderstood or hurt, they withdraw or react dramatically. Their mood swings can be sudden and unpredictable, so even they sometimes don’t understand why they’re so upset.
Because of this, Cancers often come across as overly emotional to others. While their emotions serve as a compass in life, they sometimes lack the ability to pause, take a breath, and view the situation more objectively. Instead, they let their feelings lead—and often take them further than they planned.
Pisces – Control Their Emotions
Pisces are extremely intuitive and empathetic, but their connection to their inner world can make them vulnerable. They’re easily affected by others’ sadness or tension in their environment, and they’ll hold their own emotions inside until they become completely overwhelming. Rather than expressing them clearly, Pisces often choose to escape—through imagination, silence, or even dramatization.
Their tendency to idealize situations further hampers their emotional stability. When things don’t go as they envisioned, they may feel shattered and react abruptly. Although they’re compassionate and kind souls, precisely because they feel so deeply, they often lack the strength to cope with what they feel.
