We all have to cope with loss, trauma, and the crippling impacts of personal tragedy, and grief is among the most difficult things a person can go through. Our resilience is put to the test when we least expect it by the unique ways in which each of us experiences grief. Although melancholy is inevitable, some people seem to be better equipped to handle it than others; this makes it easier for them to face catastrophic, life-changing events with a healthy dose of ingenuity and emotional and mental clarity.
Taurus
Taurus, you have spent a great deal of time and energy building a meticulous, orderly way of life for yourself, basing your regulations on your assumptions about how the world works. You have a hard time adjusting to events that disrupt your daily routine because of your rigid schedule, which undermines the feeling of dependability you’ve established. It takes a lot of time to get used to your new normal after a loss; it’s like the world is crumbling around you.
Cancer
You take up the emotions of those around you like a sponge, Cancer, since your perception of emotions is so unique. Consequently, you are faced with a multitude of feelings all at once, making your mourning process feel even more challenging. In times like these, having a supportive someone nearby can reassure you that, despite how bad things may seem right now, they will eventually get better.
Virgo
In every area of your life, you obsess about minutiae, and every time anything terrible happens, you experience an existential crisis. You experience the five phases of mourning as a whirlwind of conflicting emotions that could derail your otherwise rational worldview, rather than a methodical approach to cope. You go through all five stages all at once, which leaves you mentally and emotionally exhausted by the end of the day, unlike some people who go through denial, anger, bargaining, despair, and acceptance in that order.
Libra
Libra, you have a firm grasp on the fact that change, be it the gradual development of a relationship or the sudden separation from loved ones, is inevitable. Even though you know that time heals all wounds, you’re still very sad, and that sadness sends you into a depressive spiral that can last for days. Regaining emotional objectivity may take days, weeks, months, or even years, but you know you’ll get there in the end.
