What are you hiding?

However, there's more to each zodiac sign in astrology than what you see on the surface. We all have our secrets and the things we struggle with each day.
Aries (March 21-April 19th)
You are known as the trailblazer, the one who fights for their beliefs and puts themselves out there. That’s what the world sees because that’s what you show the world. But you have secret.
And that secret is you don’t feel as confident as you show the world.
In fact, you feel like the world’s biggest fraud. And every night you pray that tomorrow you wake up finally realizing you are a true trailblazer after all because you woke up and said, “Today I am going to show the world who I really am; today I am going to finally own who I am.”
Taurus (April 20th-May 20th)
You are the persistent provider. You help find and provide security. You enjoy life and get the job done.
But your big secret is that you are concerned you don’t do enough to provide like you should, and that smile of joy you wear in front of others is mostly for show.
While you do your best to both provide and enjoy life to the fullest, you never feel satisfied and think that it’s not enough; that you need to do more. You are burning the candle at both ends most of the time to make up for what you think is missing. But it is impossible to be on top of your game all the time. Seeking perfection all the time is impossible. Taurus, you seek to enjoy life, but you aren’t enjoying it if you’re always seeking to do and be more.
Gemini (May 20th-June 20th)
You are the life of the party, and you encourage people to come together and communicate. And you also encourage anyone to embrace what makes them who they are.
But when it comes to yourself, you feel your life is in pieces and the more you try to put it together and embrace who you are it still falls apart.
Keep trying, and don’t be ashamed to ask for help. Just like you have been there to encourage others, there are others who are there for you in return.
Cancer (June 21-July 22nd)
While you are a natural born nurturer and you are a strong believer in building in strong family roots, it can be challenging, but worthwhile.
But, the secret you carry is that you don’t want kids.
The white picket fence is not for you.
Leo (July 23-August 22nd)
While you can be seen as a drama queen, in reality, you express yourself boldly and wear your heart on your sleeve.
The secret you carry is that you simply desire a life of less hardship, drama, and difficulties.
You are truly a simple person with simple wants and needs. And you simply want to share that with someone who possibly wears their heart on their sleeve too.
Virgo (August 23rd-September 22nd)
The virgin and the masterful helper.
The secret you carry is that while you’re “the master” in helping others, you have extreme difficulty letting others help you or helping yourself without feeling embarrassed or guilty about it.
Asking for help doesn’t make you seen as less, it only makes you like everyone else, human.
Libra (September 23rd-October 22nd)
You are all for seeking balance and harmony. Not just with yourself, but amongst others as well. And if you can accomplish this with grace and style then that is just another plus.
But your big secret is that you far from having it all together. And that your life is anything but balanced and harmonic.
Instead, you find that you work better among the organized clutter. And that during a time of chaos and turmoil you shine the brightest. Even though you may feel like a phony to those around you. You always get the job done.
Scorpio (October 23rd-November 21st)
Even though you are the most intense and focused of all the signs, and you encourage those to make lasting bonds with others.
Your secret is that you enjoy your time alone.
You choose your circle with caution and care. And you have no time for nonsense. You rather be alone than be around people who chose not to get their shit together. You prefer to walk your own path rather than follow others. You have always followed the beat of your own drum, and at this point, you enjoy the sound you can make on all on your own.
Sagittarius (November 22nd-December 21st)
You are known as the big risk taker, the dreamer, the one who loves adventure.
Your secret is that you are a chicken.
You are so afraid of what could go wrong all the time that you don’t think about what could go right. You’re too afraid of how high and hard the leap will be that you never take that leap of faith. You don’t realize that everything in life is temporary and regret is forever.
Capricorn (December 22nd-January 19th)
You are all about structure, and long-term goals and planning.
But in reality, you secretly wish your life required you to be more spontaneous.
While goals and structure are perfectly fine traits to have you wish you could be able to let go a little bit more.
Aquarius (January 20th-February 18th)
While you are the ultimate truth seeker, and you fight for justice for those around you, you’re hiding a secret from everyone.
That is fighting for everyone else all the time is draining and overwhelming.
Truth be told, because you fight for everyone else, you don’t know to fight for yourself with just as much energy, ambitious, determination, and strength. And sometimes when you’re in a crowd of peacefully protesting for the rights of your fellow man or woman, you hope that one day you look into that crowd, with hopes of finding yourself again.
Pisces (February 19-March 20th)
You are the dreamer and healer. You dream big, and if someone is hurting your first reaction always is to heal the hurt.
But the secret you keep from everyone is the tremendous pressure you feel to make every dream you have a reality, and to heal someone you care for and love of the hurt and pain.
It’s the superhero complex magnified by 10. And if a dream doesn’t pan out, you have a hard to time letting it go so much that you beat yourself up for not doing enough to make your dream happen. If you aren’t careful, Pisces, that could easily create a very big chip on your shoulder. And with the weight of the need, you feel to dream big or go home, as well as heal everyone who is hurting. That can leave you hurt and extremely disappointed. Just like you can’t help heal everyone from their pain, not every dream, you have for yourself will come true. Some dreams stay dreams, and no one who plays hero all the time is an actual hero. All we truly are human beings.
