Aries tend to be pretty angry.
While Aries is known for being headstrong and able to get to their way, sometimes this has a dark side. Aries have been known to lash out in anger and violence and would do to learn how to take some deep breaths.
While jealousy as an emotion has a fair place in our lives, Taurusโs have a tendency to take things too far. Known for being stubborn and loyal, this sign symbolized by the Ram can also be quite possessive. Because of how loyal Taurusโs are, they often expect that in return from their friends and lovers, which can end up feeling suffocating if youโre more of a free spirit.
This creative and dynamic air sign can often keep people on their toes. Known for having big personalities and being dilettantes in many areas, they often switch up their personalities and interests so quickly the people around them may get whiplash. One day a Gemini might want to tell you all about their plans for a camping trip, and the next thing you know theyโre moving into a city. At least they always keep it fresh.
Sweet, sensitive Cancer has a bit of a dark side. Although they want to always give love and support, sometimes they overdo it and ignore their own boundaries. This sign, symbolized by the crab, can overextend themselves because they like feeling needed and selfless, but it often results in them taking no time for themselves and lashing out. Without setting and standing by their own boundaries, they often feel walked all over.
Leos are often known as the life of the party โ but do they invite anyone else in on the fun? People with this zodiac sign love to dazzle and impress, and they will always make you feel special and welcome. But, giving as they are with the attention, they want the same in return, which can feel like a lot more than other signs are able to give. Leos need a lot of praise and attention, which they are happy to return.
While these earth signs typically keep to themselves, when something needs to be done, they will let you know that they think they should be in charge. Virgos are obsessed with perfection, and making sure everything is how they imagine it should be. While their meticulousness is admirable, it can often rub people the wrong way, because Virgos wonโt hold back from telling you about your flaws.
Sure, empathy can be nice, but sometimes people are just bad. Itโs hard for Libras to take a stand and declare that someone is being mean, because that would require conflictโwhich they hate. So, Libras tend to try to be understanding of everyone they encounter, and occasionally wind up allowing some bad behavior around them.
Scorpio, the darkest and deepest of the zodiac tends to have some pretty out there interests. Scorpios love to brood and see where their thoughts take them. Itโs fine to be comfortable with death and pain, but just remember that not everyone is like you in that regard.
Sagittariusโs charisma and drive to be different makes them risky.
Many people are drawn to Sagittarius like moths to a light. They are just so positive and carefree, you canโt help but want to see the world the way they do. But this sign is also deeply intellectual and an original thinker. These forces sometimes combine to mean that they often long for any opportunity where they can share their beliefs freely and without judgement, and not have to stop to think about if their thoughts are potentially culty or horrifying.
Capricorn is the most hard-working sign, and their ethic and practicality is admirable. But sometimes being so single-minded on a set of goals means that Capricorns end up blocking out their emotions. They can often come off as robotic to other people, and severely lacking empathy.
One of the most far-out and unconventional signs, Aquariusโs are often not clued into reality. That means that although their imagination and philosophical thoughts might open up new horizons, they sometimes forgot how important relating to other people and empathizing can be.
Pisces has their heart on their sleeve, but sometimes they really should cover it up a bit more. Pisces understands that emotions are a fascinating landscape to explore, but sometimes they can get lost in the melancholy and bring that energy around their loved ones.
Those are some facts about your sun sign, but thatโs not all there is to your zodiac.
Your birth chart is actually comprised of many different aspects that are derived from the planetary alignment at your birth. So, although your sun may have been in one constellation, the moon may have been somewhere completely different, and the planet Mars could be somewhere else. The organization of all these planets tell you something different about yourself, so once you start to understand your sun sign, which controls your external personality, you might want to next learn about your moon sign, which tells you about your emotional core!
Astrology has been studied and interpreted for centuries.
Although it sometimes feels like a new fad, many civilizations have interpreted the stars. Ancient China and Babylon both had zodiac charts based on constellations and planets. The zodiac that we are most familiar with today comes from the Ancient Greeks, and they were derived from constellations in the sky.
A Pisces can be a good friend. But do expect them to get wrapped up in creative projects. They could be working on something huge, not realizing that the time has passed, before realizing they havenโt eaten anything.
Oh and they may get pessimistic at times, even canceling plans when they feel overwhelmed at the thought of existing in a world where everyoneโs work seems better.
They need to be working to keep their minds occupied. Social media isnโt exactly good company for a Pisces.
Aquariuses are smart but tend to live in a strange paradox. Itโs like they always refuse the normal, mundane ways of living, opting instead for ideas they develop in their heads. And sometimes, those ideas are out of this world.
Itโs also frustrating for them to try and explain what theyโre thinking of since they often exist outside of a box, where everybody else is in it. Those ideologies wonโt yet be a perfect fit for this world so an Aquarius can be rebellious in their minds.
Capricorns will keep people, even enemies, close since they have success, money and social status. Serious social-climbers with strong wills can be callous at times. They wonโt always cut ties with people if thereโs something to be had.
They could care less about losing relationships as long as they make their way to the top. Snuggling close and sucking up isnโt too far-fetched either as long as they get what they want out of the person.
A Sagittarius is intense, driven to excel solo. These are traits that embody success, but they do get in the way of others at times.
They can be stubborn like children, falling over and over again because they refuse to listen. That makes them pretty overconfident, argumentative and smug, if at times annoying for others. But they are very dedicated to their craft.
Scorpios can be possessive and manipulative. They are charming but watch out for those fangs filled with venom. Once they sense โdisloyaltyโ, it will be easy for them to turn on you, and you wonโt know it.
And they will sting you. Scorpios can be too secretive and paranoid, thinking people will manipulate them the way they do others. They also keep receipts, which they will use to their advantage when the situation calls for it.
Libras are an indecisive zodiac who cannot handle anything stressful. Itโs probably them who give us regular folks a bad name, though all they want is to love and be loved.
Libras hate confrontations so coexisting in a serious relationship can be difficult. They can repress things until it all melts down. Libras can have an emotional explosion so watch out.
We call it hyper critical or wildly judgmental, but for a Virgo, they are merely detail-oriented. They can point out all the tiny, irrelevant inconsistencies in anyoneโs memory. Uneven makeup, faded parts on clothes, and the like wonโt escape a Virgoโs eye. Itโs a trait that can be both useful and just downright annoying.
Leos roar egos that are loud. They will do anything and everything to be the center of attention, and if a social media post doesnโt get enough likes, they will take it down.
They are only in it for the lead role, the main parts, and the spotlight. Leos love the drama we hate. Conversations beyond their achievements will bore them too. Be careful not to stroke that glorious mane.
That hard shell is a front and a shield for the sensitive Cancer who just canโt handle criticism, even when itโs helpful. Cancers take everything really personally, even the pettiest of reasons.
Expect them to agonize over an acquaintanceโs subtweet, the interpretation of a four-word text message, or crying from a small joke. Donโt roast them in group chats either. Theyโll overthink when alone in their bedroom like oversensitive crabs hiding inside their shells.
The twins mean those born under this sign can have two characteristics. Either the loyal, passionate friend or the two-faced gossip who you canโt confide in.
Geminis donโt really do it on purpose. Theyโre the kind to lose control during a juicy conversation so they end up saying more than they should have. So be careful when talking about the more personal, sensitive stuff with them.
Taurus is the laziest because they believe that you canโt fail if you donโt try. They can and they will finish all those shows on Netflix no matter the number of seasons. Itโs also borderline dedication, albeit, in a different way.
Doing nothing is the safest option after all. If things donโt change out there, then they wonโt change for the worse either. Plus, it may be fun to laze around with them all day long.
An Aries likes to take the lead and make decisions for you whether you like it or not. What they say goes and donโt even think of arguing because they wonโt let you win.
All that energy can be channeled for the greater good but there is a huge difference between being a boss and being a leader. And unfortunately, an Aries can be more bossy than choosing to lead by example.
You may have heard people tell you โOh my god, youโre such a Leo!โ or, โI canโt believe youโre not a Capricorn.โ But sometimes itโs hard to know exactly what that means, and if itโs actually a good thing.
