Horoscope: Most Misunderstood Traits Of Each Zodiac Sign - Check List

Astrologer Pandit Jagannath Guruji highlights the most common stereotype or misconception that's associated with each zodiac sign - Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces.

 

Misconception: Aries natives are short-tempered

Aries are fun-loving, aggressive, and impulsive, which means they experience strong emotions. So, when you are the target of Arian fury, understand that it is temporary and not without purpose. Help them articulate their displeasure with an anchor, and you will be fine.

 

Misconception: Taureans are lazy

They may be notorious for overindulging in their creature comforts. But they are an Earth sign, therefore they move slowly but steadily. That sloth-like lifestyle serves a purpose: they monitor everything and strike only when the iron is hot. So it could not be laziness, but rather a grasp of how to use their energy wisely.

Misconception: Geminis are double-faced

While their zodiac symbol, the twins, represents their primary personality type, it is also widely misunderstood. Geminis are adaptive and capable of seeing various facets of a situation at once, as well as being excellent communicators. So when you hear a Gemini start a conversation from one position and then swing to the next, it is not being dual-faced; it is simply their way of bringing several coexisting perspectives to the forefront.

Misconception: Cancerians are over-sensitive

Cancerians are known as the zodiac wheel's crybabies, and they are sometimes misinterpreted as being weak and explosive when emotional. It is worth noting that because they feel so strongly, they nurture even more deeply, making them loyal to the bone. Their outbursts are simply a result of their inability to articulate their strong feelings.

Misconception: Leos are proud

You may believe that Leos are born with the "I-am-always-right" mindset, yet they are endowed with enormous hearts that grow when they are of service. They may not be noisy, but they do like sharing their enthusiasm for life and the things that light them up. Is not everyone a little like that?

Misconception: Virgos are perfectionists

There is a reason why Virgos are described as 'snobby perfectionists'. They enjoy being systematic, analytical, and measured in their approach to life. So, while life with them may feel hypercritical, understanding that they analyse a situation a million times before bringing it up may provide us with insight into their mental processes.

Misconception: Librans are indecisive

Sitting on the fence may be considered a typical Libran trait, yet this could not be further from the truth. Librans have an uncanny ability to understand everyone's point of view without allowing emotions to interfere. This teaches kids that there is no one proper answer to anything. With such understanding, how can people choose sides?

Misconception: Scorpions are jealous

Scorpios are known for their enigmatic personality, which they utilise to avoid emotional entanglement. They have strong feelings and will only allow you to cross the fence if you have won their trust, which is no easy feat. They also strive to get the best of everything.

Misconception: Sagittarians are commitment-phobic

Commitment-phobia is a moniker that plagues Sagittarians in general — whether it be a commitment to a person, a job, or anything else. To be honest, they love diversity and adventure. So their noncommittal posture should not be taken personally; it is simply their way of ensuring that their independence is never jeopardised. Keep them excited and engaged, and they will eat out of your hand.

Misconception: Capricorns are workaholics

Their nonstop work ethic may make them appear hard and detached from life, perhaps even robotic. But beneath all that armour is a squish ball who simply wants to be told that they are good enough and to feel encouraged. So, while they enjoy what they do, they feel more secure when they build it themselves. A little help will go a long way with them.

Misconception: Aquarians are anti-social

Aquarius is known for their idealistic vision and ability to see the big picture. So, if an Aquarius appears disconnected, it is likely that they are looking at things rationally rather than emotionally. As an air sign, they are deep thinkers who seek rational solutions to issues, yet there is a common misconception that they are antisocial and distant.

Misconception: Piscsians are absent-minded

Pisceans' dreamy disposition can make them appear lost and unbalanced. However, the child within them is still very much alive, believing in the good, hoping for the better, and trusting that naivety and innocence are valuable qualities. In truth, they are the wisest signs of the zodiac.
