3 Zodiacs That Don’t Respond Well To Change — But Can Learn To
Virgo
As someone who enjoys meticulously planning their day, change isn’t always a good thing to you, Virgo. You can often prepare for larger changes in your life when you can control them, which allows you to accept and appreciate them more. But when things happen spontaneously or are out of your control, you often struggle to accept that you can’t really do much about it.
The great thing is that you can learn to adapt to change – you’re a sign who isn’t entirely inflexible, and you’re great at preparing for new plans on the fly. Another bonus is that you usually come prepared for anything, which can help you preemptively adapt to small changes that happen spontaneously. The best way for you to learn to accept and appreciate change is by letting go of some control of the situation. Learning to prepare for what you can and accepting that anything else is out of your hands might take some weight off your shoulders – you can memorize a tow truck number, but you can’t stop the car from breaking down.
Taurus
Your zodiac sign is basically the hallmark of being change-avoidant. You like your schedule, your cozy space, your routines, your comfort hobbies. You tend to be more introverted and enjoy quieter activities – like cooking or gardening. Changes big and small can sometimes terrify you because so many things are outside of your comfort zone.
That doesn’t mean you can’t find success and comfort within change, though. Change is often easiest for you when you can focus on changing one thing at a time, so that you’ll still have many of the same creature comforts to rely on. It’s easy to say that you should push yourself out of your comfort zone to help you adapt to changes more easily, but that can be daunting for many – not just you, Taurus! If you’re struggling to get out of your comfort zone but still have to deal with change, the best thing to do is give yourself the time and space to accept the changes that are happening – even if they’re positive changes. Rely on your typical creature comforts as much as possible during turbulent periods, and take comfort in slow, deliberate days and activities that bring you as much peace as possible.
Cancer
As a Cancer, you’re a sensitive and sentimental sign. You don’t always respond negatively to change – especially when it comes to positive changes or periods of growth – but you can still have a hard time with it every once in a while. For you, the main culprit is nostalgia. You want to reminisce old memories all the time, which can make the changes that happen in your life harder to manage. You feel things deeply, which can make it seem as though small changes are enormous and have completely turned over your life. Your sentimentality often has you living in the past for short periods.
Contrary to what you may think, nostalgia and sentimentality are healthy emotions when taken in short doses. Someone has to be the photo-taker and the album-keeper of your social circle, after all! Change feels different for everyone, and it might actually be comforting for you to reminisce on old times. Just make sure that you’re living in and for the present, not the past – take the time to be sentimental when the mood strikes, but don’t allow it to overwhelm you. Focus on the positive things about your current life that you never thought you’d accomplish in the past moments you’re reminiscing on – you’ll see how much you’ve grown over the changes that have happened in your life.
