6 Zodiac Signs Who Micromanage Every Person In Their Lives, According To Astrology
They've got their eye on you.
getty There are two kinds of people in the world: those who let things flow, and those who micromanage everything. Both styles have their benefits. However, to the person is who is expert at micromanaging, no stone goes unturned, which means there's a better chance at success than if done the lax way.
Micromanaging is all about control. The person who tends to micromanage is picky, concerned and anal-retentive. They fear an unknown outcome and feel it's their duty to control the variables as best they can, to manipulate the results. Mothers tend to be micromanagers of the highest degree, as they continuously shape the choices laid out for their children.
So, who are the zodiac signs who micromanage everyone they know? Luckily, astrology is a great indicator.
Not everyone is into that degree of influence, as some just don't care. Let the cards fall where they may, they say. However, the micromanagement team is made up of people who cannot take chances on an unpredictable outcome; they have to exert influence.
Micromanaging isn't about being a control freak; it's more about examining every possible move that leads to the outcome, and how they, in their minds, can make sure every option is covered.
1. Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Known as the perfectionist of the zodiac, it only makes sense that Virgo would be interested in micromanaging everything. What drives them is nervousness; however, they worry in advance, so to make sure they can stay calm, they have a finger in every pot — they watch every move made, at the ready for correction or advice.
Virgo cannot sleep knowing something is done wrong, and they will go out of their way to make sure everything goes according to plan... by micromanaging every single step.
2. Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libra is known to be a huge worry wart, and they combat their fear by micromanaging whatever they can. If they notice an error, they correct it. If they anticipate a mistake, they jump in and alert whomever is responsible.
Not everyone wants Libra around as they can be excessively nagging, but most times, their nagging gets the job done. Libra leaves no stone unturned, but the kicker here is: they only care if they have something to benefit from the micromanaging they do. If they stand to reap a reward, they're very critical and on top of it all.
3. Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Micromanaging is an art with Capricorn. These die-hard managers know exactly where what goes and how to make this or that work. And why? Because they do their research. Capricorn is frivolous with nothing; they take painstaking measures to create an effect and all that goes into the success of it.
Another thing: They are correct, always — that's not an exaggeration. Remember, Capricorn works with the truth, so when they get it right — when their micromanagement reaps them the reward they are counting on — it's a great reward, and one we can all trust in.
When Capricorn goes into their micromanagement tizzy, let them. You'll benefit.
4. Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Because Aries is a stickler for excellence, they are quite good at micromanaging things. They can get pushy and even a little annoying, but their intentions are always good. They do not approve of things done easily or halfway, and they will make sure whatever the final "product" is, it's done to perfection.
If you've ever heard of the grammar police, that's more than likely an Aries in that position. If the job is detail-oriented, Aries is the one to get that job done. It's not good enough until it's exact.
5. Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpio is heavily into micromanagement because they are control freaks, and if they can effect the outcome, they will. This sign has no intention of leaving anything to chance. It's their mission in life to know what's going to happen and be in charge of how that comes into play.
They are also compulsively into micromanaging people, which can be highly resented as their pushiness can drive people to drink. The upside: If Scorpio is doing the micromanaging, whatever it is, it will work.
6. Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius is huge on doing things their way. Choice is something they defend, and in order to make sure they get their way, according to their choice, they will become very intent on details.
Micromanagement comes naturally to Aquarius because they very much want things to go their way. While they respect the choices of others, they clearly want nothing to do with them, which is why they are so intent on finessing every aspect of whatever it is they want.
Aquarius doesn't care how you get to your goal, because they don't care about you. But they do care about themselves, so they will micromanage whatever they can to achieve personal success.
