The Most Important Lesson You Must Learn About Love, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Gemini: If you're always so focused on finding your happily ever after, you might just miss it.

Aries
(March 21st to April 19th)
Aries, you cannot save people. You cannot fix or alter parts of somebody in order to change them into who you wish they would be. You can only love them for who they are and hope that they want to change on their own. You cannot pick up the broken pieces of someone else’s heart and try to piece things back together. You are a healer by nature, but some things must be healed on their own, as difficult of a concept as that is for you. It’s time for you to realize that.
Taurus
(April 20th to May 21st)
Not every kiss is going to end in fireworks. Passion is an incredible thing, Taurus. But, love isn’t always rainbows and butterflies. It isn’t always happy and spectacular and amazing adventure filled memories. Sometimes it hurts. And sometimes it’s messy. But, love is all of those things combined, and that is what makes it so beautiful. Learn to love someone else’s (or your own) mess.
Gemini
(May 22nd to June 21st)
If you’re always so focused on finding your happily ever after, you might just miss it. “The one” is a pipe dream, Gemini. If you are constantly searching for the perfect person, you will fail to appreciate all the wonderful people around you right now. Stop looking for perfect, and start cherishing who and what you have in front of you at the moment.
Cancer
(June 22nd to July 22nd)
It is completely okay to wear your heart on your sleeve, Cancer. If you keep closing yourself off from love, it will eventually break through those walls and find you. Let love in. Be vulnerable. You are so sensitive, so let that side of you show. People will admire your vulnerable nature and you might find that letting someone else love you isn’t so scary after all. Love always wins.
Leo
(July 23rd to August 22nd)
Not everyone can match your dedication, Leo. You love so passionately, and you love with everything you have and more. Love is different for each person. We all love so differently that love cannot be defined in a short number of words. It means different things to different people, and just because somebody else doesn’t love the way that you do, doesn’t mean they are not capable of love. Love is, whatever the hell you want it to be, Leo.
Virgo
(August 23rd to September 22nd)
Someone’s imperfections can be perfectly imperfect to you. You will never, ever find the perfect someone. Love is far from being perfect, and that’s the beauty of it all. Find someone who’s imperfections makes them more beautiful to you. Love them for those flaws, and remind them that they make them unique. We all have flaws, and perfection doesn’t exist. Remember this, Virgo.
Libra
(September 23rd to October 22nd)
Love is about compromise. It is about devotion and putting differences aside to make things work. It is not about being right or being fair. It is never an equal balance completely, Libra. You will be on both sides of the spectrum, and that’s okay. Love cannot be 50/50 always. It is too erratic, spontaneous, and bizarre to be. It is something bigger than ourselves, so quit trying to control it.
Scorpio
(October 23rd to November 22nd)
Love is all about trust. So, learn to trust again, not only others but within yourself. Trust yourself, Scorpio. Once you’re able to fully trust your intuition and where it takes you, you will then be able to place your trust in someone else. If you don’t have trust, you don’t have anything.
Sagittarius
(November 23rd to December 21st)
If you keep chasing the wrong one, you’ll miss out on the right one. Putting effort and time into someone who isn’t all about you is bogus, Sagittarius. You are awesome. You are incredible. And you deserve a love that loves you back, for exactly everything you are. Don’t chase love. Let it find you when it’s ready to. If you keep chasing after it, you might just settle for the watered down, mediocre version of it, and miss out on the great love that is searching for you.
Capricorn
(December 22nd to January 20th)
Protecting your heart will only work for so long, Capricorn. Someday, someone will get through the hard layer you put up and make way into your soft heart. If you keep resisting love, it will find you on its own. Let love enter your life as it wishes, and don’t hold back if it feels right. Go with the flow. Be in the moment. The greatest love stories begin when we least expect them to and when we aren’t even looking for it.
Aquarius
(January 21st to February 18th)
You are allowed to be your own person while still loving someone else. Being in love does not being stuck or tied down. You are still the fierce, bold, and independent creature that you’ve always been, even in a relationship. You can have both your independence and love life combined in one. The two are not elusive to one another, remember that before you push someone special away, Aquarius.
Pisces
(February 19th to March 20th)
Being loved can make you feel more beautiful, Pisces, but it does not make you beautiful. You are still a work of art even when nobody’s looking. Love won’t and cannot save you from your inner demons. It won’t automatically fix your flaws or suddenly erase all of your most difficult life struggles. Love will only console you during the darker times. It’ll lift you up and motivate you to be a better version of yourself each and every day.
