How Signs Age

Let’s face it: we cannot stay young forever. We all get older but it doesn’t necessarily need to be bad: being old means being experienced, sometimes wise, sometimes cool, and with a lot of free time. Astrology can give you a couple of hints on how cool you will be when you’re old: read on to find out if your sign is one of those who only get better with age!

Does your sign get better with age?

Aries

Mar 21 - Apr 19

Good news, Aries: plenty of people under your sign become very successful as adults. Bad news: there’s often something that holds Aries natives back. Your love for spontaneity is one of those things: you’re just too chaotic to stick to a boring routine. You love adventures and surprises.

It sounds very exciting while you’re young and it definitely is but is it that exciting when it’s time to settle down, get a well-paid job, and handle your life like an adult? Your resume may be a mess; you struggle with paying bills; you have no confidence in your future… Some Aries natives just don’t know how to be adults.

How Signs Age: Aries

Taurus

Apr 20 - May 20

Congratulations, Taurus, your sign ages like fine wine. Of all signs, Taurus embraces aging. You become better, wiser, smarter, and just cooler with every year. When you’re a kid, you can’t wait to grow up and have more responsibility. You probably seemed different compared to other kids – quieter, calmer, smarter.

As you get older, this puts you ahead of others in terms of career due to your unique ability to stay focused and calm and mind your own business no matter what happens! Many people look up to you because of your positive attitude. You always have that Taurean smile on your face – and people love you for it!

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

Sorry to say this but Geminis rarely flourish with age. Why? Mostly because you guys don’t bother to take care of yourselves – you often neglect your physical and mental health. When there’s too much stress, you just hope it will go away by itself without affecting your mind or body. Meditating is not something you love to do.

You love partying all the time, you don’t get enough sleep (“Sleep is for the weak” might be your favorite saying), you’re probably not a fan of working out (or if you are, you probably exhaust yourself). Admit it, your lifestyle is not the healthiest one, so it’s not surprising that you may have difficulties with aging and adulting.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

Cancerians often feel overwhelmed with the reality – being an adult just feels like rocket science to them. These gentle, kind souls may be shocked by how cruel our world really is, and trying to make it a better place may feel like a hopeless task to them. In short, they’re kinda bad at being adults.

To many Cancerians, it can be difficult to be nice and compassionate when everyone is so harsh, heartless, and cruel. Some Cancerians move forward and try to make their communities a little better (and some end up making an incredible difference), but most of them just give up their efforts.

Leo

July 23 - Aug 22

Unfortunately, some Leos are not exactly good at aging. Many Leo natives do impressive things as they age but most of them peak in college. They have their best years in their late teens and early twenties. Why does this happen? Because Leos tend to be kings of the social scene and find it difficult to let go of their glory days later.

Some Leos just love their popularity too much – and staying as popular as they used to be in college may be hard as an adult. They enjoy being loved and admired and surrounded by their friends and even fans all the time. But, of course, not all Leos are like this – many of them thrive in adulthood.

Virgo

Aug 23 - Sept 22

Congratulations, Virgo, you’re one of the most successful Zodiac signs. You’re one of those special people who only get better with age. As you get older, you start seeing more opportunities to achieve your goals; your confidence grows stronger. To put it shortly, you’re just amazing at the art of adulthood.

Compared to other children, Virgo kids always seem to be old souls. Virgos keep to themselves, they’re calmer, smarter, and look like they know what they’re doing. They’re practical and organized people from the very beginning. They get awesome jobs, they’re successful, and make everyone jealous!

Libra

Sept 23 - Oct 23

For some Libras, finding out what is really important in life may be extremely difficult. The world of adulthood just seems weird and unwelcoming to them and its rules are too complicated. “What exactly do I want to achieve? What is important and what is not?” Libras keep asking themselves these questions but don’t have the answer.

Many Libras spend too much time and effort worrying about their image and appearance when they are young. Some of them realize how little this matters, but some fail to understand this message. Some Libras never realize that makeup, expensive shoes, and dresses do not actually make them happy.

Scorpio

Oct 24 - Nov 22

Some Scorpios find it difficult to handle major obstacles. They may have trouble controlling their emotions and making the right decisions when they’re young and it doesn’t get easier for them when they get older. Scorpios need to work on their temper and find out how to control their chaotic emotions.

Adulthood is hard for most Scorpios but learning to manage their emotions while they’re still young can help them a lot. When they get older, they will reap the rewards. But if they fail to learn some coping techniques, life will feel like a never-ending challenge with one annoying obstacle going after another.

Sagittarius

Nov 23 - Dec 21

Just like Aries natives, Sags may have difficulties growing up – they just don’t seem to figure out what they want to achieve in life. They keep asking themselves questions about their future but fail to find answers. Continuing their carefree lifestyle is impossible after a certain age and they often find themselves in trouble.

Some Sags struggle to find the job that suits them so their resume looks like a chaotic mess. Sometimes, they even end up resenting themselves later in life and regretting their past. But some of them figure out what they really want after all and may even set an example for others who want to pursue their dreams.

Capricorn

Dec 22 - Jan 19

Capricorns know how to be an adult. They even enjoy getting older because being young feels like such a drag for them. The youth is somehow not the best time for Caps and they can’t wait to get old. As kids and teens, they feel much more comfortable being around adults than around their peers.

As Capricorns get older, they lean into their responsibilities. They enjoy being financially independent, they love their steady and sometimes boring job, and they NEVER fall behind on bills. They get a ton of satisfaction from adulting – being a responsible individual is the most entertaining thing for them.

Aquarius

Jan 20 - Feb 19

Aquarius natives love being independent and some of them even enjoy loneliness. This can become an issue as they get older because walking alone can become tiresome or even painful for them. Everyone needs a strong community around them, especially when we’re old. Aquarians may struggle in this area.

Finding a true friend becomes a really tough process once we get older, so Aquarians may find themselves lonely and even depressed because of it. When you’re a kid, it feels like you can just approach anyone you like and become friends with them immediately, but for adults, that’s not always possible.

Pisces

Feb 20 - Mar 20

People born under the Zodiac sign of Pisces often have mixed feelings when it comes to adulthood and getting older. Some of them can’t wait to become adults, have more responsibilities, and pursue their dreams, some just want to prolong their childhood. The first type flourishes with age.

Not all Pisceans are so lucky to enjoy being an adult, though. Some of them just have no idea how to be grown-up individuals. Having a steady job? Paying bills? Being responsible? These things just feel too complicated for these gentle souls; they wish they could be kids forever and miss the carefree days of their youth.
