6 Zodiac Signs Who Are Young At Heart
They don't want to grow up.
getty I once heard someone explain that we are not our bodies — we the people inside those bodies. As "people," we are the invisible animators of the physical shells we wear, and that is why there are certain people who are very old yet brimming with youthful life, even in their old flesh.
We are not our bodies; we are the life force in the body. That's exactly what the zodiac signs who are young at heart believe. And it's true! Even if you don't believe in astrology.
I know that I don't always identify with my age; in fact, most people don't. It seems most people walk around with full consciousness of themselves as "continued" beings, extensions of their younger selves. We all think we're somewhere between 20 and 35. I speak with older folks all the time and not one of them thinks of themselves as old. Some of them even see themselves as young at heart... and so do we.
It's not really a thing you can fake; you are either young at heart, or one of those folks who are born old. You know the kind: that teenage boy who looks like he's been making mortgage payments since he's 10, or that young woman who dresses as if she's 150 years old. On the other hand, there's that dapper 90-year-old dude who charms everyone he meets, and that pretty old lady whose smile lights up the room...
1. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
You can count on youthful energy anytime you encounter a Sagittarius. When your imagination is as acute and, well... insane, as any Sagittarius' is, you can't help but have a fun and lightweight sense of youthful folly about you.
The goof who doesn't care if you laugh at them? That's your Sagittarius right there — offering themselves to the fire of humor, with a young heart to back it up.
2. LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Well, of course Leo is right there with the Young at Heart gang! They love to be loved, love to give love, and love to know that somehow they are making everybody around them happy.
It takes energy and joviality to be such an all around good person. Yet, no one does it better than Leo. That youthful approach of theirs is enough to make everything they do a pleasure for those around them.
3. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Always youthful, always vain, always possible... this is how it is with Aries. They are eternal optimists, and no matter what lies ahead of them, they stride forth with energy and youthful exuberance.
Aries will remain young at heart for a life time. It's all about their energy, their light and their need for laughter.
4. CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
Natural born kids, this sign is always playful as well as eager to learn. Cancer loves fun, so expect to see them involved in and attending games, events, concerts and exhibits.
They don't sit anything out — they participate, and this enthusiastic approach to life has them always feeling young at heart.
5. VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
While you might not think of Virgo as being young at heart, believe it or not, they actually do come down off that pillar of judgement and accusation to have some real deal fun. And it's always kid stuff, always playful.
Maybe it's what happens to them when they need to break up the monotony of being a stuffy Virgo. Truth is, they are all kids at heart. They just want their toy.
6. PISCES (February 19 - March 10)
Pisces never wanted to grow up, but they had to, so to combat all that nasty adulting stuff, they remain children until their dying days. Pisces is a child, no matter how old their physical age is.
They cry, throw tantrums, need love and hugs... and the occasional toy. And even though they cope just as well as we all do in "the real world," Pisces enjoys their time being playfully young at heart — all the time.
