5 Hasty Zodiac Signs Who Make Rash Decisions
They tend to regret those decisions.
getty A rash decision is one where the consequences are not considered ahead of time, and the results tend don't end up helpful to anyone involved. People who make rash decisions don't think of the big picture. Most of the time, they act so they can move on and not have to deal with it again.
But in astrology, in particular, the problem with being one of the hasty zodiac signs and making rash decisions means bad things can happen. Some things you need to spend a lot of time thinking about before taking action. The evidence can be there for a long time, but if it’s overlooked, it can be problematic.
Our emotions and state of mind can influence the types of decisions we make. If you’re over everything, exhausted, and have a negative mindset, you’re probably not going to make the best decisions. If someone is pushing you to make a decision, you might get so overwhelmed that you tell them anything just to get them to go away.
Sometimes you just don’t have enough time to make a rational decision and in that haste make a bad decision. Other times, you may not trust yourself to make a decision, so you do whatever silly thing you can think of to help.
1. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Aries make rash decisions because they're too impulsive and impatient to think things through. Then add in their tendency to be overly blunt and you've got someone who decides on things too quickly.
They don't like to be told no and if somebody advises them not to do something, it's going to make Aries want to do it more. They aren't scared if they've made a bad decision, they'll just deal with the consequences later... or never.
2. PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces hate feeling pressured to make a decision, so they'll make a decision too quickly just so they don't have it hanging over their head. Pisces hate the feeling that what they decide will affect other people's lives; they don't want that responsibility.
It's not that they don't care; on the contrary, they care too much. They worry so much about making the wrong move that they end up making a rash decision.
3. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns are diligent, practical, and cautious, so you'd think they'd be the last sign to make a rash decision, but you'd be wrong. Capricorns can be pessimistic, stubborn and may make a rash decision just to make a point.
They also don't want people to think they're predictable. Unfortunately, making a decision too quickly and without thinking it through isn't the time to show how spontaneous you can be.
4. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarians have very little patience and can be careless. They figure that if they make a rash decision it will all work out, but it doesn't always end up that way. They don't want to have to wait until everything has been worked out, so they'll charge ahead without the approvals or documents they need.
Sagittarius can be somewhat self-absorbed and not see the impact their decisions have on other people. It's not that they're cruel, just thoughtless.
5. GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Geminis have a fear of making terrible decisions, but they end up making rash decisions anyway. They think that making any decision is better than waiting too long and making the wrong decision.
It's a gamble; a fast decision may work out in their favor or it may blow up in their face. At least with a rash decision they're taking some kind of action. Geminis suffer sometimes from a lack of direction which affects their decision-making ability.
