They always feel things in some kind of way.
By Christine Schoenwald — Written on Aug 18, 2020
Everybody has feelings, even if they’re not always obvious. But when someone says, "I'm in my feelings," they find themselves so caught up that their emotions immobilize them.
Some people get into their feelings to such a degree that it makes it challenging to do anything except process their emotions. This kind of emotional turmoil often happens in potentially romantic situations where romantic interest is one-sided and face rejection.
For the most emotional zodiac signs, being "in their feelings" is just natural.
Someone who’s highly sensitive but isn’t getting the encouragement they want may get overly emotional. They retreat into a shell and try to process their feelings on their own.
But we have to remember that emotions are crucial to who we are, and they can become unhealthy if they escalate and cause damage.
1. Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces absolutely can't stand any kind of meanness, injustice, or cruelty. When they hear about it or witness it, it's extremely hard and it takes them a long time to process their feelings.
They can't just brush it off and move on. If Pisces see someone they love behave in a manner that upsets them, they find it almost impossible to feel the same way.
In many cases, Pisces will get so hurt that they won't be able to speak to the person who committed the act that was so offensive.
2. Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
It would be one thing if Cancer only had to deal with their own feelings, but that's not usually the case.
Cancers tend to cry a lot, but they're not just crying for themselves. They are extremely empathetic and because of this they tend to take on other people's feelings as well as their own.
Although people feel comfortable expressing how they feeling, they don't need to actually say anything because Cancer naturally picks it up from their body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice.
Not even Cancers have the bandwidth to take on everyone else's emotions in addition to their own, but they try.
3. Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Aries tend to be misunderstood because they come off so capable and in charge.
But the truth is, Aries have just as many emotional ups and downs, maybe more so; they just don't tend to them as they go along because they're so busy.
When the time comes when Aries is no longer able to put off dealing with their feelings, it can be a long and arduous process. It's not unlikely for their feelings to overpower them.
4. Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos are much more emotional than they might appear.
They tend to overthink and feel the same disappointments, failures, and moments of sadness, as if they were on a constant loop. Virgos want answers, even to emotional questions, and they'll ask themselves why things happened the way that they did, and what they could have done differently.
Each time Virgo revisits a painful memory, it's almost as if it's still fresh, with the pain as strong as it ever was.
5. Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
When Scorpio is emotional (usually due to heartbreak), they tend to withdraw.
They need to be somewhere quiet and dark where they can be alone with their thoughts and pain. If Scorpio feels wronged, lied to, and/or betrayed, they'll sit with their feelings.
Instead of feeling better, the more Scorpio focuses on the hurt, the more those feelings intensify, and the more likely it is they will bring up other memories of when they were seriously hurt, making them feel even worse.
