The Zodiac Signs That Are Best At Rebounding After Setbacks
Each sign has its strengths and when it comes to setbacks in life some signs are more resilient than others by focusing on the present, paying attention to only what they can control, progress or knowledge. Other planetary influences will also determine how resilient you are, but when it comes to your actions and self-expression, some Sun signs can bounce back quicker than others.
Every zodiac sign can tap into these energies even if you aren’t one of these Sun signs. If you have a planet in the sign, you can tap into its characteristics. For example, having your Moon in Aries means that for you to feel better after a setback or apparent failure, immerse yourself in an activity that you can take charge of like an intense workout.
Aries
Aries is ruled by Mars, representing activity, energetic expression, self-assertion and effort. An Aries person will typically exert confidence and give the impression that they can overcome any obstacle. Aries penchant for leadership means they need to be in charge of their lives including their thoughts, actions and choices.
When things go left, they can tend to get domineering because no one will hold them back from what they feel they have to do. They automatically take initiative. As the sign of action and abundant energy, Aries will take on multiple jobs, classes, physical exercises or whatever they have to so they don’t get trapped in a routine.
It’s admirable the way Aries prepares themselves to cope with the practical side of life without stifling their self-expression. A setback is a teachable moment to an Aries.
Capricorn
Saturn is related to the sign of Capricorn, associated with limitation, restriction, reason, order, sensitivity and discipline. A Capricorn person is tough. When it comes to overcoming obstacles they can be ruthless. They don’t crack easily under pressure and when things get hard, they’re going to tell the cold truth no matter how cutting or hurtful it comes out.
A Capricorn doesn’t want others to see them when they’re down so they work hard to be in positions of authority and admiration. They see a setback for what it is and won't let it hinder them from their responsibilities and the work that needs to be done to keep climbing. Because they are thorough, they make sure to take every step and complete every task needed to succeed.
They manifest a quick rebound by looking the part of success and putting in the work. The Capricorn is very ambitious and constantly strives for improvement.
Aquarius
Saturn and Uranus both rule this sign, but the Aquarius expression can be strongly viewed through the energy of Uranus. The planet Uranus represents drastic change, independence, originality and inventiveness. Aquarius knows that life is full of surprises, so when a setback happens, they just go through it without the bogging down of emotions to get in the way of progress. They are very open to change. Because they usually have many friends and associates, they can tap into their network to help them solve problems.
Since they have a strong humanitarian trait to their personality, Aquarians have something that they believe in, so setbacks don’t stop the mission. Their hopes and dreams are bigger than emotionally charged minuscule complications. If other people seem to be the cause of difficulty, they can quickly let go of a grudge because they don’t like to have enemies.
Situations don’t stay down for them long because they are analytical and knowledge-seeking. They ask the hard questions and the right ones because they are highly developed to get to the truth which helps them get out of a slump.
Aquarius is future-oriented and they don’t like any involvement that holds them too strongly to the past. They will not let a setback be a heavy burden because they can adjust to let themselves loose.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius is associated with the planet Jupiter. It’s all about expansion, optimism, foresight, luck and opportunity. A Sag doesn’t like situations that weigh down on them too heavily, so silly and positive friends help them bounce back. If a situation is impeding on their freedom, a setback can look like an opportunity if it seems like an escape.
Sagittarians are optimistic and like to look at the positive side of life. The truth is important to them so they can handle the reality of what’s really going on. They don’t care what people think of them and are comfortable speaking their minds. Setbacks require looking at the realness of a situation and Sagittarians can express those conditions with frankness and even entertainment.
This sign likes to try new things, so when something’s no longer working, it’s easy to get involved in something different and not dwell on negativity. They love fun, being the life of the party and moving about. Setbacks can’t slow them down for long because they’re too focused on having a good time.
They ensure to provide for themselves and loved ones, but will also make sure there’s enough for their entertainment too.
