The Harsh Lesson October Will Teach You, Based On Your Zodiac

Sometimes, life puts us through tough situations just to make a point – to teach us something new and help us grow.

Sadly, most of these valuable life lessons are also harsh, yet they need to be learned for the sake of a better tomorrow.

Aries

God always has the perfect timing

You’re someone who expects to get everything you set your mind on the moment you want it.

However, life usually doesn’t work that way – things happen exactly when and how they’re meant to be.

Sometimes you need to learn the hard way that God always has a plan and the perfect timing.

Taurus

Sometimes, love isn’t enough

Sadly, the harsh lesson this month will teach you is that sometimes love isn’t enough to make things work between two people.

And I’m not talking about romantic love here only – this also goes for all other relationships in your life.

Gemini

People won’t always appreciate you

You might give your maximum effort to someone, but that doesn’t mean that you’ll get any of it back.

As much as it hurts to accept this, toxic and selfish people will never value you enough, so maybe it’s about time you stop bothering them.

Cancer

Bad things happen to good people

There is no guarantee that everything will go smoothly in your life just because you do your best not to hurt others.

Karma does exist, but sadly, bad things also happen to good people; that is something you just have to deal with and accept as a part of life.

Leo

Your ego isn’t the most important thing in the world

A harsh lesson October will teach you is that, sometimes, you need to disregard your pride for the sake of your loved ones or your own feelings.

The thing you’ll learn the hard way this month is that a broken heart hurts much more than a broken ego.

Virgo

You can’t be everyone’s savior

There are times when you have to let people be and allow them to make their own decisions, even when you think you know what’s best for them.

You can’t save everyone nor can you live their lives on their behalf. Instead of trying to fix others, focus on becoming the best possible version of yourself.

Libra

You don’t get endless second chances

Guess what, you’re not always the good guy and October is the month to teach you that.

The lesson you’ll learn this month is that you should’ve cared for some people while you still had the chance because now it’s too late to do anything.

Scorpio

Forgiveness is a path toward liberation

I know you think you can’t be at peace with yourself until you get even with those who’ve done you harm, but October will show you that revenge only makes you more bitter and negative.

It will teach you the upsides of forgiveness and you’ll finally see that it’s the only path toward spiritual freedom.

Sagittarius

Holding on to the past won’t bring you anywhere

Sometimes, you just need to let go, as much as it hurts.

Yes, it sucks, but soon enough, you’ll understand that some people are in the past for a reason and that holding on to their memory is only hurting you.

Capricorn

Repressing your emotions will hurt you in the long run

Keeping yourself busy and getting your head stuck in work is not a permanent solution for your emotional issues.

Your inner demons will come and get you sooner or later, and pretending to be heartless won’t make your heartache go away.

Aquarius

You need to love yourself before anyone else

Being selfless for your loved ones is an amazing quality, but sometimes you forget about your own well-being while in a rush to meet other people’s needs.

Self-love has to be a priority and you have to learn how to put yourself first before everyone else drains you completely.

Pisces

If someone wants to be with you, they will pursue you

October will teach you to stop making excuses for the ones who obviously don’t want a place in your life.

Stop justifying the ones who aren’t making an effort to be with you. If someone is treating you like they don’t care, you better start believing them.
