While some zodiac signs have some issues with taking people pleasing a little too far, there are a few zodiac signs that have no problem becoming the villain when others push them to it. Though they play the role of villain well, despite what others may think, they don't always want to be the bad guy. It truly takes a specific type of person or situation to really get them going.

Whether it's their secret need for the finer things in life to people simply pushing their buttons, each of these three zodiac signs has a few things that can take them from angels to villains in the blink of an eye.

Scorpio, you are the brooding type that keeps quiet until it's no longer possible. While you tend to keep things to yourself, you have no problem becoming the villain when pushed too far. According to astrologer Celine Diong, this is all because of your “emotional intensity.” From mood swings to a need for revenge, you can sometimes allow your emotions to run rampant, sometimes without necessarily meaning to.

Because you like having control over every situation, even if others don't recognize that you're the one in control, this can often lead to "power struggles" and even "emotional manipulation" when you feel like things are out of your hands.

So, while it's sometimes easier said than done, be mindful of your thoughts and desires. As cheesy as it may sound, sometimes, giving in to your urges might cause more destruction than it's worth.

2. Capricorn

Capricorn, workhorse that you are, you also have a desire for power on some level, which often translates as a desire for high social status. Though as a Capricorn you "have a lot of ambition and a lot of emotional restraint too when it comes to achieving their goals,” Diong said, when you feel as though someone is coming between you and your success, you have no problem becoming the villain. 

As a result of your desires, you can often appear cold or calculating to others when your ruthless nature comes into play. When you feel this happening, try to remember that's there's room for others at the top — and without them, life can get a little lonely.

3. Aquarius

Aquarius, though you're "typically humanitarian,” Diong said, there’s a darker side to you that you don't really like to show. You tend to think about your feelings instead of feeling them, which can sometimes lead to you becoming emotionally detached.

Sure, you do your best to give to others, but if someone crosses you, you have no problem becoming the villain, bringing out a different side to you that most others don't typically get to see. This can sometimes make it seem as though you "have zero empathy” despite being a zodiac sign dedicated to improving life for everyone.
