6 Zodiac Signs Who Don't Learn From Their Mistakes
They just don't learn.
getty "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." An oldie but goodie on the cliché front. Life is all about trying again after we recognize that we might have done something the wrong way.
Einstein was credited with saying something like, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results." Translation: How can we possibly advance ourselves and get the results we actually want, when we keep repeating our mistakes again and again, without recognizing that we have to learn from them?
For the zodiac signs who don't learn from mistakes, this reality comes back to bite them in the butt, time and time again. Even using the powers of astrology can't convince someone to do better next time if they won't at least try, right?
But mistakes are blessings if we adjust our perception. Every mistake we make gives us a clear vision of what we did wrong. And if we don't analyze to find out what we did wrong, we might never change, and the situation where we made the mistake will never be rectified.
Mistakes allow us vision, foresight. Mistakes are bricks upon which we can build or rebuild our lives.
So, it is our job, as humans, to learn from our mistakes and make good on them, for our own sakes. If only it were so easy. And astrology teaches us that not everyone learns from their mistakes. Here are the top six zodaic signs who don't learn from their mistakes.
1. AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
When you are born as much of a wimp as any Aquarius, you can't really expect to learn from your mistakes... merely because the idea of thinking before acting is beyond the Aquarian scope of behavior.
This sign doesn't like to work, or get involved in anything that requires thought or lifting a finger towards making money, so learning from mistakes is a no-brainer — literally. They don't know they make mistakes, so they don't learn from them. It's pretty bleak.
2. TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus WANTS to learn from their mistakes, and they can even admit when they're wrong, humbly and with all intention of rectifying their situation... until it's time to actually change directions and work on what has been spoiled.
It's as if change doesn't "click" well with them, and so, in true stubborn Taurus fashion, when mistakes come up, they are acknowledged, ignored promptly, and then made again and again.
3. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
You can count on Aries for getting the job done, but you cannot count on them for getting it right, even after they've been carefully instructed as to what to do to get it right. Aries is a fierce and stubborn sign, and they like to be successful in all they do; they just DON'T want your opinion or even your guidance, even if you know better.
They will resist learning from their mistakes because on some level, they don't accept that they can make mistakes, which is problematic for them, at times.
4. PISCES (February 19 - March 10)
When you're as sensitive and triggered as you might be if you're a Pisces, then you are someone who likes to indulge in how your mistakes make you a bad person, which, in turn, inspires tons and tons of self-pity and wound-licking.
Pisces enjoys making mistakes — not to learn from, but to make into theater. One mistake can be blown into such an ordeal, and Pisces loves the ordeal! They don't learn from their mistakes; they turn them into massive pity parties where they get to declare themselves helpless victims of everyone else's mistakes.
5. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
Libra's duplicitous lifestyle of being nice to everyone, while judging and putting everyone down, is their downfall. These hypocrites should just stick to what they do best: treating people like crap, because that "kindly" and "friendly" personality that Libra is known for is really just a sugar-coated lie that ends up hurting people and eventually biting them on the tush over and over.
They never learned that just because they "act" nice, it doesn't mean that others aren't able to see just how insincere Libra's really are. Stop being so fake-nice, Libra — we stopped believing in you a long time ago!
6. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Eventually, Sagittarius will catch on, but until they really own the idea that they've made a mistake, they will deny and defend that mistake to the death. Sagittarius spends way too much time trying way too hard to make a thing work that just will not work.
They are the ones who "beat a dead horse." They are the ones who don't give up, die trying, and get laughed at because everything they do ends up a failure.
