4 Zodiacs Who Can Be Total Scrooges
TAURUS
Taurus has this problem where when they start shopping for all of their friends and family, the just end up buying all the things they’ve been wanting for themselves, and some things they never knew they needed. It’s not their fault, really. With all of the different gift lists circulating the internet and finding their way into Taurus’ e-mail inbox, they can’t help themselves. It’s sweater season, everything is on sale, models are looking gorgeous, and the holiday version of everything is extra chic by nature. By the time they’ve gorged themselves on online orders, the clock has almost run out on deals with on-time shipping. Everyone else may be receiving their gifts on the 29th, but it’s the thought that counts, right?
LEO
Leo can be a Scrooge by being somewhat of a snob. The original Ebenezer doesn’t donate to the poor, tells his nephew he doesn’t have enough money to get married, and fires his clerk without a second thought of how it will impact him financially. Leo doesn’t go to quite the same extremes, but they can be choosey around the holidays. They will opt for a glitzy gala over a small homey party. They’ll RSVP yes to the boozey bar crawl, but no to their aunt’s ugly sweater Christmas party. They can care more about status and Instagram-ability than they do love and meaningful connection. They think people are just being boring and unstylish, without realizing they’re the one being terribly judgmental.
SAGITTARIUS
Sagittarius can be a Scrooge by giving the holidays a full Bah-Humbug and jetting off to somewhere exotic for the end of the year, skipping the Christmas season entirely. They have a been-there-done-that about the whole holiday hoop-la without realizing it’s the one time of year their family can count on seeing them. They’d rather ditch the people they know and love to explore a new city of an unfamiliar culture. What they fail to realize is that someone else’s traditions are not a means of entertainment for them as an outsider. They are meaningful and personal and passed down from generation to generation. If only Sagittarius would learn to appreciate the beauty of where they come from and what they belong to. Maybe, at the end of the day, that’s what they’re really looking for without even realizing it.
PISCES
Pisces can be a total Scrooge because they don’t see the consequences of their actions. They have the tendency to live inside their own little bubbles, completely unaware of the impact their choices have on the people around them, from family, friends, to their wider community. They need a Jacob Marley to warn them before it’s too late, and a Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come to give them a sneak peek of their future if they continue to trod down the same introspective path. There are so many people out there who could benefit from Pisces’ knowledge, resources, and warmth who currently can’t access it. Pisces needs to take a break from their hermit lifestyle and reengage with a world that is literally waiting for them to arrive.
