Life is full of stress, and you can’t ignore it. And some have more stress than others, but if they can handle it well, they will have decent mental health and health. Some people may use stress-reducing techniques such as yoga and meditation, and others may find it helpful to keep a journal so they can vent their feelings unfiltered.
Unfortunately, there are plenty of people who cannot cope with the stress they face, and as a result, they are the ones who suffer the most. So how do you deal with stress? Let’s look at that based on your zodiac sign.
Aries – Stress makes them angry
Aries, you are very passionate and energetic and know how to let off steam when dealing with work pressure. Yes, it will make you angry, but you can do this through exercise and exercise. However, when you experience too much stress, whether it’s about work, family, or other things that have nothing to do with it, you become so angry that you have the urge to punch the wall or throw something.
The best thing to do when you are in that condition is to keep exercising as that will help you burn off extra steam. A boxing glove and a punching bag are excellent investments.
Taurus – Exaggerates
Taurus, you are a hard worker and tenacious, and you have used that stubborn trait to your advantage. And when you set your mind to something, you will focus on it and even find a way to deal with the obstacles you face. However, since you don’t like to leave your comfort zone, you don’t handle stress well, like moving house or so many things that make you break your beloved routine.
You will eat too much, drink too much and sleep too much. That’s the way to deal with it. Journaling will help you much more because it will provide you with a way to get your anger and frustrations out.
Gemini – Health related problems
Gemini, you are versatile and witty, which is why you attract many friends. You are stimulating and fun. You have to be busy; a busy life doesn’t cause you stress. Or even if it is, find a way to keep yourself busy. The only thing that stresses you out is having nothing to do or being stuck with boredom. For example, if you work a repetitive 9-to-5 job, the monotony of it will annoy you. And you will become stressed.
Even though you love communicating, you won’t talk too much about the stress you’re facing. Instead, your health will suffer if you develop digestive problems, skin problems, and even weight gain due to high cortisol levels. Venting could be one of the best things you can do to deal with the stress.
Cancer – isolates
Cancer, you are very emotional and very caring, which is why you care so much. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take much to stress you out. You also don’t like burdening others with your pain; instead, you isolate yourself when you’re under tremendous stress.
You keep yourself away from others and worry about what else could go wrong. So, if you are stressed, the best thing you can do is talk to your loved ones about your worries, listen to your favorite music and enjoy herbal tea, which will go some way to relieving the anxiety you are feeling.
Leo – can be overly mean and rigid
Leo, not only do you love being in the spotlight, but you also need to be in control. And the problem is that many problems happen outside of your control. And if that happens so often, it causes a lot of stress.
When you are incredibly stressed, you are not only mean and can hurl sarcastic comments at everyone, but you also become more rigid and stubborn. Others won’t like being around you if you get like this. If you could work on going with the flow, you would be much less stressed and happier.
Virgo – High chance of burnout
Virgo, you are very analytical and can become obsessive about perfection as it is. Experiencing too much stress takes its toll, and it doesn’t take much to stress you out since you’re the type to be overly stressed. When you are extremely stressed, you don’t talk to anyone because you bottle up your feelings. It takes a toll on your physical health and affects your mental health, and you are at high risk for burnout.
And if you’re burned out, remember that you can’t possibly pour from an empty cup. The best thing you can do is rest and delegate when you don’t have specific responsibilities to manage. You’re only human!
Libra – tries to fake it until they make it until they can’t anymore
Libra, you are the diplomatic type and you also need balance. At the same time, you don’t like confrontation. And you can’t stand those who like to argue or ask you something that makes you uncomfortable. When you enter their energy field you will become very stressed, but don’t let that come to the surface. You act like you’re okay with them asking you tough questions or starting a conflict.
Deep down you hate them, but you seem easy-going and cooperative with them. You give them answers they like, even if you don’t. That’s why you keep putting up a facade of accepting what they do to you until you can’t do it anymore. That causes a lot of stress to the point that you have a meltdown. Remember, it’s okay and healthy to have respectable arguments. You will also feel better afterwards.
Scorpio – lashes out and has health problems
Scorpio, you are intense and mysterious and passionate. That’s why you’re good at hiding your emotions. However, one thing you emphasize is not trusting someone you thought you could trust. When you think someone is betraying you, it causes stress. However, you don’t talk about it and let the pressure fester because you are not open about your feelings.
But as the pressure mounts, you lash out, especially at those you think are betraying you. You also develop intestinal problems because your body cannot handle the pressure of stress. It’s a challenge for you to communicate, which is understandable, but you need an outlet for your stress. Invest in boxing gloves and a punching bag to release some of that.
Sagittarius – Physical consequences
Sagittarius, you are generous, and you are also the one who sees the glass half full. You also love your freedom and independence. The only thing that causes you a lot of stress is feeling tied down or making obligations. You don’t like it, but life won’t make it easy for you if you don’t fulfill obligations. You have to face some responsibility. And when you feel stressed, you don’t express it.
You pretend everything is fine and mask it with positivity. However, stress makes you physically ill. It can cause unintentional weight loss and hair loss, loss of appetite and loss of energy. You have to prepare yourself for the big possibility that you have to commit, and once you accept it, it won’t cause you so much stress.
Capricorn – Shut down
Capricorn, you are responsible and take your work seriously. You will never produce anything less than excellent. Like Virgo, you dream of perfection, but you know this isn’t realistic or achievable, so you strive to be the best you can be. However, you also won’t stop working if you’re determined to achieve a goal by a certain time, to the point where it stresses you out. And you ignore the warning signs that stress causes you, such as poor health, isolating yourself and being very irritable with others.
You let it get so bad that you shut down completely. You become apathetic and you don’t care about your goals. You shut down so that you no longer eat or get out of bed. The best thing you can do is allow yourself some retail therapy to help you heal again.
Aquarius – Self-sabotage
Aquarius, you are the type that usually doesn’t allow things to get to you, and therefore you usually don’t suffer the effects of unmanaged stress. You march to your drummer and you are independent. But even if you don’t show your feelings, you are more empathetic than you think, which is why you have many humanitarian qualities.
The type of stress that is most likely to happen to you occurs on a collective level. And you can absorb the pressure of others like a sponge. That’s when you become depressed and unconsciously struggle with problems, which can cause you to sabotage yourself. For example, if you want to meet a deadline, don’t let self-sabotaging behavior do it. The best thing you can do often is to ground yourself by spending time in nature or imagining a protective light surrounding you so that you don’t absorb as much stressful emotions from others.
Pisces – Like Capricorn, shut down
Pisces, you are artsy, dreamy, intuitive and overly friendly and give people the benefit of the doubt even when they don’t deserve it. You are very empathetic and you absorb the energies of others, which makes you stressed like Aquarius. You also tend to be too compassionate when it comes to a mistake and spend your time on those who don’t deserve it and who appreciate it, which causes additional stress. Therefore, when it gets to you, you will isolate yourself, get lost in your thoughts, struggle to eat, get out of bed and not answer phone calls, texts or emails. Your room will be messy, and you won’t care. You’re going to close.
You can’t stay there, so you should do something you enjoy, like art and therapy if you need to. That could even mean reiki healing.
I don’t need to tell you that stress can be destructive and put a lot of pressure on you. You may respond to stress more through your moon sign than through your sun sign, because your moon sign represents your emotional response to external stimuli. The point is that regardless of your zodiac sign, you need to find methods to help you deal with stress. A little pressure is good to stay motivated and stimulated. However, when stress becomes unmanageable, it is time to seek help for it.
