I'm very into astrology too (well, was once, at least) and I ALSO AGREE VERY MUCH BPD fit a water sign to a t. I actually opened a Sign thread yesterday not knowing we already had this one.
Most BPDs I know have Cancer all over their birth charts. A lot of Pisces and Scorpios I know have symptoms of HPD, BPD and NPD.
If you actually consider what Water signs are all about, it's like they're describing BPD honestly.
Deeply insecure, very low self esteem, codependent, extremely moody and easy to hurt, low self control, clingy, manipulative, likes to have close relationships but always keep their true selves to themselves. They also describe Water signs as being very likely to mimic a person's personality to be accepted/not attacked, as a defense mechanism. Water signs usually are seductresses, who aim to please absolutely, so then they can manipulate and hold the control/power they so desperately need to feel secure and emotionally stable.
Also, Water signs (specially Scorpio) are always described in seeings things in absolute Black and White. "You're with me, or youre against me". "Life's great, I love you. Life's terrible, I hate you".
Also, Water signs are reputed for not onlyh being very easy to hurt, but TO NEVER FORGET A HURT FEELING. Look funny to a Water sign, and you'll be considered a possible incarnation of Satan until the day he dies. I am not kidding.
But in my opinion, I think each Cluster B disorder kinda resembles the elements:
Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) = BPD
Feminine, emotionally unstable, no boundaries, likes romance, needs to feel protected due to extreme lack of self confidence and identity. Cares deeply about finding a mate and being seen as angelical and harmless, when in reality they only strive to manipulate and control to feel safe. Seduces puppets and abuses the weaker-than-them. Acts behind the scenes.
Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) = ASPD
Materialistic, agressive, emotionally cold, doesn't like messy relationships, prone to action, almost no emotional reflection unless it server a purpose to gain advantages in a social circumstance, almost machine-like in their ambition. Unflexible, yet very concerned about appearing as a competent and self assured. Capable of anything to mantain his materialistical goals. Strong sensual needs often manifest as sadism. Albeit emotionally reserve, can be capable of a lot of rage and violence.
Fire (Aries, Leo, Saggitarius) = NPD
Adores attention. Needs constant fuel for the fire (narcissistic supply) to feel motivated and important. Extreme disregard for anything that is not a part of what he considers to be himself or useful to him. Likes to create and achieve big things in order to get attention. Emotions are intense, but not as dark and feminine as in the Water realm. Can be impulsve, big spender on things that are grandiose. Is constant looking for the next conquest, the next performance of his life and the something colossal to own that manifests his achievements and superiority. Cares a lot about dominance in a more emotional yet extrovert way. Aka: Doesn't want to own a partner or his children like a BPD, but wants to own a big company. Can act
Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) = HPD
Intellectual, ambitious, but unfocused. Extremely extroverted and easily makes friends with people of all kinds, being able to read behavior and chat easily. Likes to call attention and be a part of many social groups, but also to be the one that appears as the most special memeber. Quick wit, capable of excellent academic or professional achievement. Prone to manipulation of large groups and appearing to be something better than it really is. Dreams big, wants to be seen by all. Sees itself for more than it really is or in extremely distorted ways. Crossdressing, exquisite clothes, tattoos, piercings, or merely artsy tastes that lend him in areas such as painting, music, acting. Often has an attitude/false belief that embodies larger groups, but that call attention to himself. Conquest is in the social and intellectual realm. It is absolutely manipulative like a BPD, but far more cold, shameless and capable of "playing the victim (or martyr) part" better during stress. Wil often use many partners to achieve his goals.
