6 Zodiac Signs Who Get Straight To The Point
They're direct to a fault.
getty Being straightforward is a good quality to have, as long as you aren’t too blunt. If you take the time to consider your words before you say them, you'll have a better chance of not alienating other people.
But sometimes, direct people can’t control themselves and immediately say what’s on their minds. And for the straightforward zodiac signs in astrology, it can sometimes discourage others from wanting to engage. Because it’s not great if your way of communicating comes off as abrupt and impolite.
Direct people may not be the greatest at small talk or chit chat, and they can sometimes appear rude. It’s not that they’re intentionally mean, it’s that they often don’t have a lot of patience.
But at least you know these straightforward people are being honest, because they don’t flatter or say what people want to hear. They’re also truthful with themselves, even when it’s painful.
In some ways, people who get straight to the point are desperate to be understood, and they try to express themselves in a way they think is the easiest for others to disseminate. It takes too much energy to lie and then remember who you told what. It’s much better to be direct and deal with the consequences.
1. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius live in the here and now, and they don't have the talent to sit through a lot of boring conversation or meandering clarifications. They've got places to go, new people to befriend, and so many experiences; if they have to take too much of their valuable time getting to the point, they'd miss out.
Sagittarians don't spend a lot of time going over things that happened in the past; they're more about moving forward. Sometimes these individuals can be tactless, but they're not trying to cause pain, they just need to get their point across as quickly as possible.
2. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Since Aries are known to be impulsive, it makes sense that they have a "strike while the iron is hot" kind of attitude and tend to get right to the point, no matter how delicate or sensitive the subject matter is. Aries are passionate and energetic, and this can lead to them blurting things out in the heat of the moment.
They're blunt, but it's not because they want to cause pain; it's just that they don't have a lot of patience and have a ton of things to do.
3. TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus tend to have an economy with their words. They consider what they're saying, but they keep their message straightforward. These individuals embrace honesty, both giving and receiving it, which is also why they are so resilient and have a tough skin.
Once they've made their point, they stick with it. Taurus don't take things personally and they're not hot-headed. They may not tell people what they want to hear, but speaking in a direct manner works for them.
4. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns are efficient with their words, but that doesn't mean they're not trying to create a better world through their actions and words. They're honest, but not insensitive.
Capricorns know that sometimes you have to get information out that is uncomfortable for people, and covering up the message with a lot of unnecessary words doesn't help; it only makes things more confusing and sometimes heated.
5. AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius get right to the point because they always have a ton of things going on in their mind. They're always creating and thinking outside the box, and they don't have time to be overly cautious about how other people will react to their words.
Aquarius individuals don't want others to get overly emotional from their words. They're straightforward out of respect for you and your time. They want to make the world a better place, so it's important their message not get lost.
6. VIRGO (August 22 - September 23)
Virgos get right to the point and they'd prefer if you did too. Don't waste a Virgo's time when you have no idea what you're saying or the point you wish to make. The faster everyone knows what they're talking about, the quicker questions can be asked and answers given.
Virgo is direct with what they're saying so no one has to guess what they're trying to get across. There's less confusion and time-wasting when people in a conversation are straightforward.
