Choosing your own words carefully is laudable, but there are people who overdo it here and there. These zodiac signs are often included.
Words can have a big impact. They can connect, hurt, enchant, disturb, stimulate, calm and much more. What we say contributes to the image other people have of us. And it contains clues about what kind of image we have of them. In this respect, it is wise and sensible to choose our own words with care and consideration and to pay attention to what we say. But like almost everything we do, we can overdo it, think too much about what we say.
First, there will always be people who do not understand what we are trying to express, no matter how precise and thoughtful we are. Secondly, communicating is largely about reaching a common understanding – but this cannot be achieved without exchange and without trusting that the other person will forgive us for imperfect statements. Thirdly, we could theoretically think about every word for so long that we end up being silent or always late with our question, answer or comment. And there are certainly at least fourth, fifth and sixth.
Especially the following Zodiac signs could use a little more courage and less caution when speaking every now and then. They tend to overthink what they say.
Horoscope: 3 zodiac signs who think too much about what they say
Aquarius
Aquarians like to think, but they sometimes forget that other people don’t hear or know what they’re thinking. Therefore, there is often much more meaning in their words than anyone could possibly realize. Thinking out loud more often or remaining silent less – Aquarius and those around him could benefit from this.
Lion
Leos pay very close attention to what they say and do it primarily out of consideration for themselves and others: they don’t want to make mistakes and look bad, nor do they want to be unfair to their fellow human beings or disturb them. With their caution, the fire sign often misses the chance to receive feedback that could not only make them happy, but also give them security: We don’t have to avoid every faux pas in order to be loved.
Protect
Sagittarians carefully consider their words for two main reasons: they want to avoid arguments at all costs and they want to present as many perspectives as possible. Both reasons can be related to each other – and lead to considerable frustration. After all, not every argument can be avoided with the right words and the perspectives that we are able to grasp are always only a small fraction of those that exist. A little tip: Sharing progress with others more often can open up new perspectives that we would never have thought of on our own.
