When all you want to do is celebrate with your friends and family, it can be inconvenient that your past catches up to you. Whether it’s just your mind going back to past hurts or literal people from your past showing up at your door, it’ll keep you from completely enjoying what you have now. For these four zodiac signs, the ghosts of Christmas past will come to haunt them this holiday season. Each sign gets to decide just how much the haunting will affect them. Will it ruin the festivities or be a minorly inconvenient blip?
Aries
This time of year, you start to turn nostalgic. It’s something about all the traditions and memories that swirl around you during the holidays. While you normally have your gaze firmly locked on the present and future, you’re spending Christmas worrying about things that have happened in the past. They’re the kinds of things that keep you up at night, tossing and turning in bed. Past mistakes, exes you miss deeply, friendships that were torn apart. If you let this go on, you could be drowning in the past by Christmas morning.
Cancer
Of all the zodiac signs, you’re the most likely to be stuck in the past. While you’ve been trying to avoid worrying so much about what could have been, that’ll get much harder this Christmas. There will be so much reminding you of the past, especially wregardingthat one ex. You had your holiday traditions and memories and every step you’re reminded of them and how they treated you. If you keep living in those memories, you’ll miss what’s right in front of you.
Scorpio
It’s not that you want to be thinking about your past right now. You’ve been doing a pretty good job staying in the present lately. But then you’ll meet up with family for the holidays and they’ll keep bringing it up. They’ll ask about your ex or comment on the dreams and goals you had in a past life. Try as you might, you can’t force them to stay off the topic. You’ll have to do your best to change the subject this Christmas. If you want to be sassy, you could always remind them of their pasts instead.
Capricorn
You’re not normally the one that lets the past catch up to you. You have far too much to do to make your future the way you want it to be. But someone from your past might be making that much more difficult this Christmas. Expect someone you haven’t heard from in a long time to pop back into your life. Maybe they’ll show up at your family’s Christmas festivities or you’ll see them out shopping when you’re back in your hometown. Just smile and move on and try not to let it drag you down
