Astrology has a lot of insight into our personalities. It can help us divine when we are going to fall in love. It can give us business advice. It can even tell us where we should live based on our goals in life. Why wouldn’t it also be able to tell us which signs we should be most mindful of crossing? It’s just good protection to know.
When we’re talking about who we shouldn’t and should mess with, astrologically speaking, you want to look at someone’s big three or their Mars and Mercury placements. A rising sign will tell you how someone shows up in the world, and the moon placement will bring out how someone shows up emotionally. Mars is where we hold our passion, and Mercury shows us how we communicate. Another way to read these placements is how we see ourselves in a situation versus how other people perceive us in an argument. It’s how well we can argue back and how well we can hold true to our belief systems. Let’s just face it, each sign sees the world a little differently, and these four signs certainly know how to turn up the volume.
Aries: The first sign on the zodiac wheel and the first of the fire signs. It makes perfect sense to not want to mess with any fire sign, but there is something extra explosive about an Aries. While they may not be the most tenacious of the fire signs (cough cough Sagittarius), they haven’t journeyed the wheel and learned all the lessons yet. Sometimes the lack of experience lends a boldness someone might not otherwise have. Going toe to toe with an Aries is not unlucky per se, but highly inadvisable. Consider yourself warned.
Gemini: The air sign that probably has the worst rep out of all the zodiac signs. Their dual nature and quick wit will have you questioning what you ever thought to be real. They have the eloquence to convince you of almost anything, which is why they are considered manipulative and quite dangerous. They don’t necessarily want to start the fight, but they will certainly put an end to it. They consider their personal peace to be of the utmost importance. As long as you go along with their fluctuating moods, you can’t get on their bad side.
Capricorn: Stubbornness will be the downfall of a Capricorn every time. Or rather, your getting in the way of the ideals of a Capricorn is asking for trouble. Most people consider Taurus to be highly stubborn, but that pales in comparison to the sense of justice that a Capricorn holds onto. You will be hard-pressed, if you even dare to attempt, to change the opinion of a Capricorn. It will be butting heads at every breath. So many more things sound like an agreeable and enjoyable time over taking on the value systems of a Cap.
Pisces: There is a duality to this water sign that is only mirrored by their lovable counterpart Gemini. Pisces is represented by the dual fish, and there is a delicate balance to their reality or lack thereof. Let’s be honest, nothing pisses a Pisces off more than someone trying to check them back into reality: it is a violence like no other, and they will be provoked over it. If you know what’s good for you, you will play along. Pisces are equally dangerous when they get bored. This doesn’t happen often given their rich imagination, but they rely on the people around them to bring them a certain level of gossip. If it’s a slow news day, they may just stir the pot. As long as they are happily daydreaming, there is nothing to fear. The humor of a Pisces is that they will start the fight and then somehow not finish it, and gaslight you a bit into thinking the issue was something else. Oh, Pisces, whatever will we do with you?
