The 12 signs of the zodiac all have unique personalities, and that includes how emotionally stable they are. While some signs are known for being even-tempered, for instance, others are known for being on the moodier side.

Of course, someone's zodiac sign can never guarantee whether they'll be moody, but the following three signs have a reputation for being a bit sensitive—and acting out as a result.

P.S. This would apply to anyone with any of the following as their sun, moon, and/or rising sign.

1.

Cancer

The most sensitive zodiac sign of them all is none other than Cancer. As a water sign, Cancer is already familiar with the realm of emotions and feelings to begin with, but then you also have to take into account their ruling planet.

As the only sign ruled by the moon, Cancers may not even realize their mood is largely affected by which zodiac sign the moon is in—and that changes every 2.5 days. When the moon is in Libra, for example, they may feel more balanced—but when it's in loud and proud Sagittarius, they might be more blunt or brash.

And regardless of where the moon is, Cancers tend to be guarded and protective. Their shell is like personal armor, and it doesn't take much at all for them to retreat back inside.

2.

Pisces

Coming in as the second most moody sign, we have Pisces. A water sign like Cancer, Pisces takes their sensitivity to a level that might be better described as psychic ability. Their intuition is extremely strong, but that makes them easily affected by other people—and even the environment they're in itself.

Pisces can get overwhelmed and shut down easily, which can come off as moody to others. Not to mention, they're a bit more tender-hearted than Cancer, and they don't have the same armor to protect them.

Of course, Pisces is also adaptable, so while their mood may change quickly, they're skilled at channeling their difficulties into creative outlets and even spiritual wisdom.

3.

Aries

Last but not least, we have Aries as the third moodiest sign. As a fire sign—and easily the most temperamental sign of the entire zodiac—you definitely don't want to cross an Aries. Where Cancer and Pisces are moody in a sensitive, emotional sense, Aries is moody in an aggressive sense.

When things don't go their way, they're not going to sulk about it. Rather, they'll rip you a new one, storm off, and make their way happen on their own. Hostile? Entirely. Docile? Not at all.

These folks have little to no patience, and they can be impulsive and hot-headed. All of that boils down to someone who tends to be moody in a reactive, combative sense.

The takeaway

Again, while someone's sign can't say for certain whether they'll be moody, there are simply some zodiac signs who are more sensitive than others. For Cancer, Pisces, and Aries, don't be surprised if they're moodier than most.
