That’s why you struggle with self-love (based on your zodiac sign)
Aries: March 21 – April 20
You are too competitive.
To be honest, most people will hardly be able to believe that you ever have self-doubt because you have such a strong self-confidence. But what people tend to overlook is how often you look around you and thus compare yourself to other people. Because of your competitive nature, you spend more time than you should to point out what you don’t have, what you don’t like, and what you haven’t achieved yet.
Give yourself a break and try to concentrate on the things you have achieved and your good qualities. You will be pleasantly surprised if you are not too busy comparing yourself to everyone else.
Bull: April 21 – May 20
You think you can only love yourself if everything is safe and stable.
You like it when everything is in order, everything goes according to plan and there is nothing to complain about. But the moment things seem to get out of hand or changes come into your life, it’s like your whole self-confidence is breaking down.
It’s okay if not everything in life is perfect, including yourself. You are still an incredible person, regardless of whether your life is currently safe or totally confused. You just have to take a little time to realize that.
Twins: May 21 – June 21
You think you need to know all the answers before you can love yourself.
You like to have an answer to everything and because you love discovering and exploring new concepts so much, you have more answers than most people around you. You tend to think that once you find all the answers in your life, you will finally love yourself completely.
But the humiliating truth is that no one has all the answers, even you don’t, and that’s more than okay. You are a smart brain and you are always incredibly spontaneous. So keep that in mind, even if there doesn’t seem to be an answer.
Cancer: June 22 – July 22
You only love yourself when someone else loves you too.
We all have a desire to be loved by someone, but you tend to overdo it a little when you do. We all want to know that someone can look at us, see our best and worst sides and still believe that we are worth being loved.
While this can feel great, you forget that you are a person who is able to love yourself in exactly the same way and you should do that because your value is not from someone else’s love for you dependent. You are such a beautiful soul that is worth so much more than believing that you need another person to be loved.
Lion: July 23 – August 23
You only love yourself when everyone else loves you too.
I know we could talk all day about how much you love to be the center of attention. The truth is that so many people love to be around you because you exude a certain warmth, have a sense of humor and have a fearless nature that people would like to embody as you do. But as soon as you start to notice those who don’t love you, those who reject and criticize you, you start to wonder if you really are the way other people see you.
There will always be people in this world who won’t like you and that’s normal. This fact does not change the incredible person the rest of the world knows and therefore you must not allow it to change your perception of yourself.
Virgo: August 24 – September 23
You destroy yourself with your own thoughts.
We know that you always want to get the best out of everything. We can call this a high standard or perfectionism, but you really only strive to be the best possible version of yourself. However, if you do this, you will find yourself picky and think about how you are not trying hard enough. The thoughts wouldn’t be so bad if you didn’t believe it yourself.
Ultimately, this world needs someone like you to drive it and keep it moving. Do not allow this voice in your head to be the dominant voice that determines the way you see yourself, because trust me, nobody else sees you that way.
Libra: September 24th – October 23rd
You are too afraid to defend yourself when necessary.
You are someone who would love nothing more than to keep peace. You would rather step aside or not say anything, rather than being the reason that a conflict breaks out. Although this is understandable, there are times when it is necessary to speak up.
After allowing people to take advantage of you so many times, you start to believe that this is something you deserve. You start to see yourself as something to step on, but that’s just not true. Don’t be afraid to defend yourself when necessary. Don’t be afraid to show the rest of the world how great you are.
Scorpio: October 24th – November 22nd
You are a person who is looking for toxic and invulnerable things.
Everyone is drawn to you. They find you irresistible and fascinating, and they should because you are. But you only chase the people and things that pull you down and allow you to stay vigilant. You know that vulnerability comes with some risk, and opening yourself up this way can be scary. But since you surround yourself with such people, you destroy yourself by allowing yourself to be mistreated and humiliated over and over again.
You deserve more than believing that you are only worth those people who will never fully love or appreciate you. Try to open yourself to the right person and I bet you’ll be amazed at what could happen.
Sagittarius: November 23 – December 21
You are a person who tries to achieve everything and is never completely satisfied.
You love to explore the world around you and are always looking for a new adventure, no matter what it could be. But over time you realize that you rarely stop and look around to see the things you have because you are too busy chasing the next new thing and that makes you feel dissatisfied.
You are so optimistic and adventurous that it doesn’t hurt to look at what you have achieved so far. You have to look at the mirror and remember that what you are is not based on how much you ended up experiencing in this world. Remember that you are worth being loved, even if you feel that you don’t always get everything you try to get.
Capricorn: December 22 – January 20
Your expectations of yourself are far too high.
You spend a lot of time trying to meet your expectations and keep pushing yourself to take the next step. You work a lot and that is admirable, but what most people may not realize is how often you push yourself to meet the expectations you set in your head.
You have always been goal-oriented, but even if you fail to reach the next level you are desperately striving for, it does not mean that you are worthless. You have so much to give to this world and it’s not always just about being successful. You are still worthy of being loved, even if you are not always successful.
Aquarius: January 21 – February 19
You are afraid that you are not like everyone else.
In most cases, the fact that you are so unique and completely different from anyone else is why you are so confident. But we know that this can be a sensitive issue because it is also the reason why you struggle to love yourself. You don’t always see, think or do things the way people around you do, so it’s easy to think that something is wrong with you or that you are too difficult to love and accept.
But you shouldn’t forget that that’s not true. You may not do things like everyone else, but it is one of the many reasons why the rest of the world loves and appreciates you. That’s why you should learn to do the same.
Pisces: February 20 – March 20
You try to deal with other people’s problems and base your value on how much you can help them.
Your empathy doesn’t seem to know any limits. You have such a beautiful ability to understand other people’s problems, and while this can be something admirable, it can also be very stressful for you. You tend to feel everyone else’s problems and consider them your own, while you can make it your constant goal to solve them.
You can help some people, but not everyone, and that’s fine. That doesn’t mean you don’t deserve love. This does not mean that you should consider yourself a failure just because you are unable to solve everyone else’s problems.
Remember that you have so many incredible skills that people around you appreciate, so take some time to take care of yourself.
