Why These Zodiac Signs Always Argue, Per Astrology
You can always count on these zodiac signs to start an argument.
pexels Being argumentative is often seen as a negative trait to have – usually because when we see someone arguing, we associate them with being conflict-driven.
People who fight a lot are considered to be angry, and overall unpleasant to be around.
Think about the last time you were in an argument with someone.

Were you arguing over a good thing – like which one of you was going to treat the other one to lunch? Probably not.
You were more likely arguing with someone because they hurt your feelings, said the wrong thing, or were just generally getting on your nerves.
We all argue for different reasons, which can vary from zodiac sign to zodiac sign, but one thing is usually true: arguing isn't usually associated with good stuff.
But contrary to popular belief, arguing can be healthy for you – shocking, I know. Now, just because it does have some healthful benefits doesn't mean you should argue with everyone about everything.
It does mean you should let yourself feel the emotions that come with wanting to argue instead of stuffing them down and ignoring them.
When you argue, you are giving yourself a chance to voice your opinions and display who you are, rather than letting yourself be quiet on topics that matter to you because you don't want to rock the boat.
Speaking your mind can also make your relationships and friendships stronger because you're willing to actually fight for what you want.
That said, if you are nothing but inflexible and stubborn when arguing, you're not really doing it the healthy way, but as humans, we are constantly growing and learning.
In addition to being healthy for your relationships and friendships, arguing is a way to let off steam and let yourself feel emotions as they come to you. Pushing down how you feel without giving yourself an emotional outlet is a recipe for disaster.
Eventually, you're going to blow, and it's going to be much worse because you put how you really feel on hold. And when you shove those emotions down, you do a lot of additional damage, including raising your blood pressure.
Some horoscope signs don't have to worry about that – arguing comes easy and often for them. Whether they do it with healthy benefits in mind or not is an entirely different question, but they are certainly no stranger to expressing themselves.
Why each of them argues in another matter, too. Some do it simply because they like to fight, while others only argue if provoked or when setting someone straight (if they deserve it, of course).
Whatever the reason is, take it from me – don't start a fight with these horoscope signs unless you're ready to lose the argument; they argue to win.
Here are why certain sun signs always argue, according to astrology.
1. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Aries loves to argue – it's in his nature. To him, arguing is akin to speaking his mind... even though he's more than capable of saying what's on his mind without starting a fight in the process. Oftentimes, Aries argues without intending to start a fight at all.
While Aries will argue with someone out of anger, a lot of the times his attention span is too short for him to really remember why he was arguing in the first place. Really, he's just very passionate and outspoken, and arguing is his way of expressing how passionate he is about something or how much a person or thing means to him.
2. TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus has two speeds: ready to charge and passive and relaxed. You don't often see the charged-up side of Taurus, but when you do, it's hard to get him to settle down. As the bull of the zodiac sign, Taurus can be very relaxed until someone tries to provoke him.
If Taurus is arguing with you, it's because you poked at him too long until he couldn't take it anymore. Most of the time, he starts a fight just to tell you to back off already.
Yet, there are times when he actually has something to say and will argue with you to make sure you're actually listening to him. If he feels like a situation or topic is worth him investing his time in, he can argue forever.
3. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer feels a lot of emotions all the time – he's one of the moodiest zodiac signs, after all. And while many of the emotions he feels are positive, he doesn't stop himself from feeling the negative ones, too.
Cancer argues a lot because if he didn't, all of those negative emotions would fester inside of him until he couldn't take it anymore. He does try to express his emotions in a healthy way through emotional outlets.
However, if he's dealing with his emotions, plus all the emotions others put on him, he has a hard time handling them in a healthy way. When Cancer argues, it's really just to let some of what he's feeling go.
4. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius is a very carefree and happy-go-lucky zodiac sign, that's for sure. But he's also a fire sign, which shouldn't go unnoticed. As a fire sign, he has a lot of passion and intensity inside of himself, which often comes out as arguing.
Sagittarius is open-minded and accepting of everyone, and absolutely cannot stand people who disagree with him. Sagittarius' passionate energy can come out in situations where he feels like people are being narrow-minded or intolerant to others.
While he isn't in the business of arguing over petty things, Sagittarius will always argue as a way of standing up for others.
5. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
One of Capricorn's biggest challenges is taking care of his needs and wants. He spends so much time putting himself aside for "more important" things that he forgets that he's human, too.
Because of this hiding away his true self, Capricorn often has to deal with complex emotions. That, coupled with the fact that he is stubborn by nature, means that he's always in the middle of a new argument with someone.
As a rule, it can be hard to see eye-to-eye with Capricorn on just about everything. He always argues because he feels like he's always right – and it feels good to prove people wrong, of course.
