Let’s see what are the negative characteristics of each zodiac sign.

#1 Aries (21 March – 20 April)

1. Impatient
Of all the signs Aries are the most impatient, so much so that their motto should be ‘Now, now, now!’. They tend to demand things instantly. Because they often don’t think through situations rather hurry to do things, they can arrive at a decision to quickly later regretting it. Impatience can also block their way to success.
2. Dominant
Aries born tend to get very dominant at times thrusting themselves too much on others. They have a hard time accepting when things don’t go their way and it is very difficult to control them. After all, they are born leaders. They hate waiting for others to get the work done. Occasionally they can get egoistic.
3. Childlike
Aries can get a little aggressive if things don’t work out the way they want them to. This impatient and headstrong nature can be childlike and immature. They don’t like taking orders from others and following rules are not their strong side either. They prefer having things in their own ways much like stubborn kids.
4. Short-tempered
Arians fiery, passionate personality can be easily explained by the fact that they belong to the Fire signs. On the positive side fire element gives natural positivity, enthusiastic and energetic personality to the Aries-born. However Fire has its negative aspects as well, making Arians quick to anger and often very impulsive.
5. Jealousy
Aries often possess strong and powerful character, or even dominant nature which can turn into possessiveness. They might have envious and jealous thoughts in love life or business matters. They must be careful with this bad state of mind as it can hold back their progress and learn to focus on thoughts of love and kindness.
6. Overachiever
One of the biggest qualities of the Aries people is that they are go-getters. They want to succeed and are very ambitious but sometimes they can put too much pressure on themselves. When they are working they never pause until the work is done. This tremendous amount of drive can make them over-achievers in anything they set their mind to tackle.
7. Hurrying to do things
Due to their fiery temper Aries tend to hurry to do things, and get impatient as mentioned before. Once you are aware of this personality trait you can improve on it. When you have a very important matter to decide, take plenty of time in arriving at a decision. Try to establish a quiet and calm state of mind before settling important matters.
8. Unpredictable
The energy of the Fire tend to influence the Arians personality, making them unpredictable just like fire. What is the most difficult them to handle is criticism and facing obstacles. Perhaps they seem unpredictable on the surface but deep inside they are loyal and devoted friends and lovers, fighting for their causes and for their loved ones.
9. Straight forward
Aries have a very straight forward approach towards life which can make them self-involved and self-centered. This attitude may also mean that they care less about others feelings. Aries are straight forward in the matter of love as well. They are devoted partners and don’t take betrayal lightly.
10. Stubborn
No wonder why is the symbol of this zodiac sign is the charging ram. The stubbornly persistent personality is a key to their success but it can also be an obstacle. They can be pretty inflexible and not open to any suggestions. They usually do what they think is right.

#2 Taurus (21 April – 21 May)

1. Possessive
One of the negative characteristics of people born under this sign is that they can get possessive and jealous. Taurus needs security and stability in its relationships and thus possessiveness is less common for those who are in a long-term relationship. Same way Taurus tend to form attachments to things he can easily become possessive with people. With their positive heart qualities they can overcome this bad personality trait.
2. Materialistic
Taurus love material things, they love shopping, food and other possessions. They like comfort and indulgence be it a nice bottle of wine or tender touch and pampering moments. Taurus tend to be too much materialistic. The horoscope advises them to take a lighter approach towards life and look beyond the material gains.
3. Stubborn
It’s hard to tell which zodiac sign is more stubborn the ram or the bull. Taurus can be painfully stubborn, at times irrationally persistent. This is one of their weakest points. Once they make up their mind it is impossible for them to change the way they think. On the positive side this tremendous amount of stubbornness make them go the way they have chosen until they reach their goal.
4. Lazy
Taurus can get lazy at times especially when they have to follow rules or ordered to do something. Their patience can seem laziness and they definitely will not move a muscle till they are motivated to get up and work. Taurus appreciate the value of leisure sometimes a little too much perhaps.
5. Inflexible
Taurus is not the sign who welcomes changes with open arms. On the contrary, it makes them nervous and worried. As they are usually afraid of the unknown – new experiences and new situations – they can be shy around strangers as well. Taurus needs to be more flexible and needs imagination to be able to think creatively. Don’t let a one-track mind keep you from living life to the fullest.
6. Self-indulgent
Due to their goal-oriented attitude Taurus can be self-indulgent and ignorant of others’ emotions. They tend to live in the realm of their sensations and emotions. It is beneficial for them to control their appetites and passions.

Taureans are seemingly closed off and protective but they are very sensitive people. When wrong things are said they can get hurt easily. They tend to hide this sensitive side and avoid talking about their emotions.
8. Too Cautious
One of the most enduring characteristic of Taurus is that they never take unnecessary risks. Being an Earth sign it is quite understandable, Taurus is always with two (or rather four) feet on the ground. Their cautious approach may take away some spices from their life and others might find it boring. Safety and stability is crucial for the Taurus-born.
9. Slow decisions-making
Due to this highly cautious attitude and very practical thinking power, Taureans can take long when it comes to making decisions. Especially when it is about romantic relationships.

You can be assured that a Taurus will come up with great solutions.
10. Extremely Practical
Their highly practical approach towards life is what make others look up to the Taurus-born. Being an Earth sign, Taurus is always very sensible, avoiding unnecessary risks. Being extremely practical might be too much as sometimes we do need to dream and escape from reality. Appreciate the beauty beyond material gains will do you good.

#12 Pisces (20 February – 20 March)

1.Conflict avoidance
If there is something that Pisces hates is definitely loud arguments and conflicts. They hate confrontation as they don’t have a fighting nature. So instead of saying what is on their heart they keep it inside just to avoid conflicts and often escape to their imaginary world.
2. Indecisive
Being a Water sign, Pisces often just go with the flow. They are often indecisive and they don’t know what they want. They go into a state of seeking and if they can’t make a decision they feel disappointed. In relationships they seek a dominant partner who keeps them grounded.
3. Escapist
Pisceans live in their imaginary world. They are the greatest dreamers of the zodiac chart. When something goes wrong they retreat into their dream world to avoid reality. When the Pisces personality takes on a negative manifestation they are prone to addictions because they don’t want to face the truth.
