A sign will envy the sign succeeding it?

Question

I read somewhere that in astrology, people under one sign have an inborn, secret envy towards people under the sign succeeding their own. Well I'm a Virgo and I secretly admire many Libra because they're usually social and likeable without efforts. There's also a Taurus guy I know who constantly copies the styles and actions of his Gemini friend (also a guy).

So... any more real life examples?? It's ok if they're just coincidental, or a confirmation bias, but I'm just curious.

Answer 1

I'm a scorpio.

I know 2 libras that envy me.

And there is a sagg. I envy.

So I do thing so

Answer 2

Interesting. The sign succeeding mine is Aries, and that is one sign that I have in the past said that I admire for their action and just do it attitude which is sorely lacking in Pisces, especially with Mars in Pisces on top of that.

I have since changed my mind and would rather be a Capricorn if not a Pisces... or maybe just Mars in Aries or Capricorn instead of Mars in Pisces...

Answer 3

i admire aries friend's courage and initiative. Im a pisces and that frend of myn help me strengthen my guts.

Answer 4

Well, following the Signs' evolution theory, every sign is supposed to have something to teach the previous one...every sign is an "improved" version of the previous.

But the thing is that the zodiac forms a *circle* which means that there is no head...So everyone has something to teach and something to be taught....The final outcome is EQUALITY.

For this exact reason, I do not believe that "envy" for another sign should be the case....Admiration, perhaps, even respect, but envy is too much of an intense word to use. Jealousy is a trait that is related to individuals and not their signs. That's why you can always be envious of a sign that's not really the one after yours...and most of the times that is the case, I think.

Personally, I respect Aquarians, but I do not envy them...and I don't think that Sags envy me, either...I suppose it's all up to the individual, really.

Answer 5

Maybe that is true?

I am a cancer and i admire kim catrall off of s*x and the city who is a leo. I admire the leo proudness and confidence something cancer can lack!

Answer 6

well... i'm not sure... i'm an aries and i definitely NOT admire taurus people (no offense guys). the ONLY thing i like about tauruses is that they are artistic more or less.

and pisces (if that counts, too)... those guys are okay. i know some who are really popular because they have a good personality. so i generally like pisces more than tauruses...

[edit] why did i get a thumb-down? because i said my opinion? you guys in the horoscopes section disappoint me so much... i feel sorry for you...

Answer 7

Yes, I think it's just coincidental, and each person is different. Besides, since there is more than the sun sign, people embody a number of different qualities. They may admire the next signs qualities if they don't already have them, but that doesn't mean that it will happen as a rule. I am a Libra, and if I admire someone, it's because they have earned the right to be admired, and they have done something amazing in my eyes. I have met people of all signs that I have had respect for, and some that I find simply pathetic. So yes, I like the qualities of Scorpio, but that doesn't mean that I envy them. I have enough placings in my chart that I have those qualities for myself.

Answer 8

Yeah, just coincidence.. I admire traits of Scorpio, Sagittarius and Aquarius (Okay, Scorpio is in there, the sign succeeding Libra). Real life example? I have an uncle (Scorpio) whom I really look up to. He's very successful but he's still down-to-earth. He is still very approachable. But like I've said, we can admire any sun sign for their traits eventhough they are not the ones succeeding our own sign.=)

Libra sun

Answer 9

there is nothing like that,whatever you experincing is coincidence

Answer 10

I'm a Cancer, and someone told me that this one Leo girl secretly loves they way I dress, and tries to copy it..... well, I secretly envy her carefree way of charming people, and the comfort she feels in her own skin...

But yeah, I heard something like that too, that neighbor signs are secretly fascinated by each other.

Answer 11

Heck no, that's not true.  You may have read that in a YM magazine or something, huh.  Libra succeeds my sign, and there's nothing about that sign I admire.  Nothing.
