Is your horoscope to blame? The worst traits of your star sign

Every star sign has both good and bad traits, perhaps your arrogance or jealousy is just because of your astrological personality.

You may be used to hearing the great things about your star sign, but what about the dark side?

Prepare to be roasted as our resident Tarotscope reader Kerry King reveals the worst traits of your character, according to the zodiac.

In so many ways you’re a beautiful, magical, wonderful person. Yes, YOU.

But not every day can be full of smiles and kisses.

The sunny side of life has a shadow realm, and this is where your Worst Self is found lurking.

Happily, you definitely CAN blame your star sign for the bad bits (It’s not you, it’s your birth date!).

So, what terrible behaviour is your inner, astrological personality driving you to act out? Read on for the zodiac’s ultimate roast, if you dare …

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Thuggishly self-absorbed and argumentative. Obsessed with winning to the point of persisting, at your own peril, with losing battles, no-win situations and lost causes.

An outwardly arrogant shell covers up your own crushing self-doubt. Deep inside, you don’t think you’re good enough. All that noise is for show, isn’t it …

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Welcome to Dullsville.

This is a place where very little happens, where people remain stuck in ruts of their own making for centuries, where progress has stalled under the reign of a dogged and stubborn Taurean god.

This is where, if you’re not careful and resist defaulting to your Worst Self, you could end up. Break free!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You’re a two-faced, petty criminal who delights in others’ misfortunes and revels in scandal and gossip.

With friends like Gemini, one doesn’t need enemies. Although your friends don’t always last that long anyway as you’re constantly on the hunt for a better option/party/job/partner/life.

A relentless search for where the grass might be greener prevents you relaxing in your own backyard.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This is the FBI’s most dangerous star sign.

Why? Because you’re a jealous, controlling, manipulative, emotional wreck who cannot bear to see people leave you behind or improve themselves without your input.

Moody, needy, passionate and unhinged. Mad, bad and dangerous to know. You love and hate harder than anyone else.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

Leo on a bad day acts like a pompous, sulking toddler kicking off, usually because they haven’t been shown enough APPRECIATION.

The (perceived) lack of this attention can send Leos, quite literally, INSANE.

You expect the world to revolve around you and thank you for the privilege.

The glimpses of reality, where you are forced to confront that you’re just a dirtbag like the rest of us, are met with meltdowns.

VIRGO (August 23-September 22)

A judging, sneering critic who focuses on the negative at all times, and is intent on pointing out your dour observations to others too.

Completely fixated on being right and proving yourself CORRECT over petty, minor points of (non) interest that no one else cares about.

An utterly draining and miserable life force.

That said, I know that you direct twice as much negativity at yourself as anyone else. If you were nicer to YOU, life would be easier you know.

LIBRA (September 23-October 22)

You veer towards acting like a vain, idle flopsy incapable of making up your mind, procrastinating to the point of driving those around you to the very edge of their tolerance.

You’re determined to keep your options open as long as possible, and then some, and like to play ‘devil’s advocate’ to any other poor soul trying to make a decision themselves.

This is intensely annoying.

SCORPIO (October 23-November 21)

A more depraved, ruthless creature would be hard to find. Your spirit animal is a scorpion — which says it all.

Mind games, bullying and dominatrix behaviours are how you entertain yourself — preying on weaker, vulnerable individuals who have yet to feel your sting.

You divide the world into people you envy vs. people you can control. Scary.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22-December 21)

Clumsy — in every possible sense of that word.

A verbal, emotional and physical hooligan blundering and crashing around, causing uproar and offence — albeit never intended (because you ARE a sweetie, really).

Your foot (and other body parts) is frequently in your mouth (and other places it doesn’t belong). You’re your own worst enemy.

CAPRICORN (December 22-January 19)

The most relentlessly ambitious and self-serving of all the star signs.

You, Capricorn, have the willpower and success-envy to drive others into the ground if it gets you further up the pecking order. Mean, unforgiving, serious, boring.

An enemy of epic stature (you should carry a warning sign for that) because you’ll never forget a grudge or fail to repay the insult.

AQUARIUS (January 20-February 18)

Aquarians live in their own world — an emotionally barren planet completely devoid of warmth and light, a place disconnected to the energy of living, breathing humans.

Like robots, you traverse the world deconstructing and analysing those around you but failing to understand or engage with them.

PISCES (February 19-March 20)

You need to be needed and woe betide anyone who doesn’t fall into your martyrdom trap, they’ll swiftly learn that you’ll go to any lengths to illicit sympathy and gratitude, even when it’s not deserved.

A hard-done-by, wallowing ninny. A pioneer of the self-pity party. A big crier.
