If you know anything about the zodiac, you've probably internalized the stereotypes associated with each sign. Some of these things are positive, but in most cases these things are negative.
Think about the most recent time you had a conversation with someone about your zodiac sign or someone else's.
When you mentioned the sign, was it just acknowledged as a fact or was it treated like an unimportant thing on that person's rating?
When I've asked about the zodiac sign of someone I was dating or even thinking about dating, I've been met with resistance based on the stereotypes associated with that zodiac sign.
It may sound ridiculous, but then again, stereotypes in general are pretty ridiculous. In fact, the twelve zodiac signs are significantly more complicated than most people believe they are.
In reality, a zodiac sign that has a reputation for being cautious and prickly can be very open and warm. Those who give off the impression of being unreliable or aloof are simply resourceful.
The zodiac signs considered impulsive and uncaring are basically just adventurers at heart.
Most of the time, we grow and progress, breaking free of the negative patterns of behavior that make us fall into these zodiac stereotypes.
