Taurus is known for their calm and friendly demeanor. But they can have a temper, too. “They are a ‘quiet’ storm,” Barretta says. “Taurus will patiently wait things out but if you push this sign too far they will charge at you.” Just like their symbol, the bull.
It’s possible for Taurus to recognize this habit in themselves, and make an effort to think before they act. They may also benefit from recognizing that sometimes, when it seems like people are pushing their buttons, it’s really because they may be taking forever to make a decision. As Barrett says, “Sometimes getting a push toward making a stand helps move things along in a more timely manner.” Keeping that in mind may help take them down a few notches.
3.Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Represented by the twins, Gemini can have “extreme sides to their [personality],” Amid says, including a surprisingly bad temper.
“You never know when they will erupt because they switch on a dime when angered,” she says. “[They’re] very cognitive in their thinking process on one level, though the other face shows them to be easily disruptive.”
For Gemini, the best way for them to calm down is to look for humor in the heat of the moment, and to encourage their loved ones to do the same. As Amid says, “That seems to be their antidote.”
4.Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Leo can be surprising when it comes to just how upset they get. “Since they appear to be so kindly and benevolent most of the time, when their temper flares up, the recipient of that anger [can feel] harshly judged,” Shumsky says. So it never hurts for Leo to find ways to tamp down this reactionary side, and learn how to focus their energy in a healthier way.
Instead of attacking, “they need to pause, take a moment to consider their actions, and express themselves in a more dignified manner,” Shumsky says. “I suggest the Leo say something like, ‘When you did that, it hurt my feelings and made me upset.'” That way, whenever their feelings are hurt, Leo can express themselves without making the situation worse.
5.Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
When Virgo is feeling upset, their tempers can flare up in a cold and calculating way. “They have the capacity to cut people down to the ground with their words and cause deep wounds with their criticism,” Shumsky says.
And yet, just like the other signs, this is a bad habit they can definitely overcome. “Since [this sign is] generally very disciplined, they don’t have to act out,” she says. “They can […] reconsider what will be the next thing to come out of their mouths, and make a choice to say something constructive.” Once Virgo learns how to remain calm, they might notice that their relationships vastly improve.
6.Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
