6 Zodiac Signs Who Hate Confrontation More Than Anything
They won't fight back.
getty As a spiritual reader, I find that my eternal advice always ends up the same, and when it comes to people's problems with other people: communicate. Open your mouth and speak. Confront. Approach. Don't stay silent, don't become a repressed person.
My advice for the world is to speak up, and to understand that if you want something communicated, it's not going to happen unless you take the chance and brave the idea of actually saying what's on your mind, fearlessly. But in astrology, the zodiac signs who hate confrontation aren't necessarily the ones to adopt this mindset.
How many times have you known, with utter certainty, that you could get the answer you seek if you'd only open your mouth and ask? And while we make a real big deal about honesty and open communication, very few people actually have the nerve to just say what's on their minds.
Lack of communication is what destroys worlds — as in marriages, relationships, friendships, and businesses. Without communication, everything is assumption, and as we adults have come to learn, don't assume anything.
It's hard to confront others because we fear being rejected for our truths. We fear being misunderstood. but most of all, we fear getting an answer, because that answer might not be what we want to hear. We fear confrontation because we might hear the truth, and the truth may not be what we really wanted after all.
1. GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
A curious sign, Gemini, as they are highly intelligent, but awful at making it known to others.
Due to their inability to move forward or make a decision, Gemini gets tangled in their own confusion when trying to express themselves, and ends up backing out of it all way before they give themselves a chance to communicate properly. They scare themselves out of speaking.
2. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Well intended but wildly off base, Cancer would like to say what they mean, but often times they simply stifle their words and end up feeling repressed and frustrated. Communication then becomes battle rather than expression, and they fight and insult rather than settle their scores diplomatically.
Cancers are way too impulsive to calmly discuss things. They are bad communicators.
3. PISCES (February 19 - March 10)
Ultimately, Pisces will turn every attempt at communication around and make it about them, about their pain, their devastation and their poor, pitiful life. So, sure, they love to communicate, as long as all conversations are about the Pisces in the room.
I guess you could say they communicate through a fish-eye lens; it's a tight squeeze, it's obscured and doesn't resemble the truth.
4. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
Virgo has a tendency to feel everything and get emotionally involved in everything as well, which makes them raw and impulsive.
In matters of communication, Virgo gets too involved with the thoughts and condemnations that go on in their mind, that by the time they communicate what they're thinking about, they've lost track of how to say it.
5. AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarians are good at writing their thoughts down in a journal, but when it comes to actually talking with other human beings, it's a decided No Go on that front. Occasionally, they will come out of their shells to talk at you, but they rarely talk with you.
Communication is way too scary an idea for the likes of Aquarius.
6. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Possibly the worst of the bunch, Librans simply do not know how to communicate; or, rather, when they do, they end up being so insincere that no one believes them.
That front of equanimity and balance is a farce with Libra, as they are unable of doing much in balance, which is why communications from this sign are usually about insults, judgment and what doesn't work for them. And to hell with you.
