What You Suck At, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Aries: Patience

Aries, you’re the go-getter of the zodiac—when you want something, you make it happen. Patience is not your strongest suit; why would you wait to get what you want when you could just trailblaze your way to it yourself? You want results, and you want them now, which can sometimes lead to hasty decisions or a touch of impulsivity. Some things just take time, Aries, and that’s not a bad thing—don’t pick your fruit before it’s ripe!

Taurus: Embracing Change

Taurus, you are the comfort-seeker of the zodiac, often finding it hard to step out of your cozy, well-decorated box. It’s no secret that you could use a little change in your life, and you’ve probably heard that you need to step out of your comfort zone before. It’s not your fault that change—especially when sudden—throws you off balance; not all good things are easy. Just know that pushing your own comfort zone every once in a while can help keep you stable even when things around you are progressing.

Gemini: Focusing

Gemini, you probably won’t be surprised to hear that your multi-tasking abilities can sometimes drag you down. You’re no stranger to juggling a hundred different things at once, and you often find that your mind works better when it’s completely full of things to do. But this also means that you neglect to focus on one thing at a time, which lets a little too much slip through the cracks. Your versatility is a gift, but when it comes to tasks that require prolonged focus, you usually find yourself struggling.

Cancer: Letting Go

Cancer, you’re both a sentimental and nostalgic sign. You tend to hold onto things—emotions, memorabilia, people, the past—with a vice-like grip. Your sentimental nature is endearing, but it can also lead to holding onto grudges or staying in your comfort zone for far too long. You can take the lessons people and experiences give you into your future while also letting go of the past that no longer serves you; this will help you learn to move on in the long run.

Leo: Sharing the Attention

Leo, you love the limelight, and why shouldn’t you? You’re fabulous. You also don’t get enough credit for your generosity—you care for other people deeply and aren’t afraid to share your success with them. It’s only when you’re caught up in the moment that you sometimes plan on taking up center stage for a little too long. Find a group of people that you can relax around so that you don’t feel like you constantly need to vie for attention or find yourself feeling slighted when you don’t receive it. Remember, sharing is caring, and others like a bit of sun too!

Virgo: Not Sweating the Small Stuff

Detail-oriented Virgo, you have a keen eye for the minutiae, but this often means you get caught up in the small stuff. It’s great to be thorough, but your sign is known for going a little overboard—even if you consider every detail to be necessary. If there’s one piece of advice you’ve probably received before, it’s to look at the bigger picture—your organizational prowess doesn’t come without dedication to the little details, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t move on until everything is perfect, either. 

Libra: Making Decisions

Libra, your quest for balance and harmony is admirable, but it can make decision-making a painfully slow process. You might feel like it’s not worth it to speak up in a large group or just feel uncertain about suggesting something that someone else might not like. There’s usually no harm in letting someone else take the lead, but it’s not a bad thing if you have an opinion of your own you want to stick to every once in a while. 

Scorpio: Forgiving and Forgetting

Scorpio, you’re known for your intensity, and when wronged, you can hold a grudge like no other. Forgiving and forgetting aren’t in your vocabulary, but holding onto anger isn’t doing you any favors either. You’re a sign that loves to keep a list of everyone that’s done you wrong (and you’re great at exacting revenge, too)—at some point, though, you need to sort through that book of names and see which grudges are doing you more harm than good.

Sagittarius: Sticking to Routine

Sagittarius, your free-spirited nature means that routines can feel like cages for your daily life. You might struggle to follow a set schedule, and if a goal of yours requires dedication over a long period of time, you often end up throwing it right out the window and jumping into something new instead. If you want to accomplish everything on your to-do list, you need to actually follow the list, Sagittarius—take your days one step at a time and practice scheduling a commitment or two for yourself to see how things go. 

Capricorn: Taking a Break

Capricorn, you’re the workhorse of the zodiac, often pushing yourself to the brink for your goals. You might even be the kind of person who worries their friends and family when they’re hard at work—if you retreat into your cave to achieve your goals without ever stopping, this tends to make others want to check in on you and see if they can convince you to enjoy some sunlight every once in a while. Let yourself enjoy a break every now and then, Capricorn—discipline is created not so that we can work endlessly, but so that we can enjoy life’s pleasures completely. Remember, all work and no play…

Aquarius: Dealing with Emotions

Aquarius, you’re a thinker, often living in your head. Dealing with the messy, illogical world of emotions can be a real challenge for you. You might struggle with understanding why people can’t see things the same way you do—you may find yourself choosing logic over empathy because it’s what you prefer others would do for you. There’s no harm in dictating what forms of interaction you feel most comfortable with, but just know that others may feel hurt or slighted because of this. Compromise is about finding a middle ground for you to express yourself and for others to do the same. Most illogical, as Spock might say. 

Pisces: Saying No

Pisces, your compassionate and empathetic nature means you often put others’ needs before your own. This also means you suck at saying no. Setting boundaries is not your forte—perhaps you’re already familiar with the sentiment of lighting yourself on fire to keep others warm. You’ll gladly burn yourself out in order to take care of other people, Pisces, but at the end of the day, that helps absolutely no one in the long run. Setting boundaries isn’t just about you—it really helps the people around you, too. Would you want a friend to endanger their own health just to help you out? Of course not. Your friends and family won’t want that for you, either—good people will welcome and respect the boundaries you set.
