Why do we try to be perfect?

I dont know about you guys but sometimes i feel the need to be perfect. The more i strive to be perfect the more my bad qualities show. Im going to try something new and live life the way it feels right without judging myself or striving to be perfect in front of others. Im also really sensitive to how im perceived by others.

virgo board

Ive read that striving not to make mustakrs was a taurus trait but it could very well be a virgo trait . Look at beyonce and micheal jsckson

🤢gt;. I thought so too. I don't strive to be perfect but when I mess up I realize its because I was trying to please someone or have them to perceive me a certain way. I shouldn't do that. I hate mistakes because I can't undo them.

I feel the same way. 😢

Take my advice do what you can, be happy with what you have. Don't worry too much. Make the best of the years to come. Travel and date

henh??
always thought virgo was the "perfect" sign with libra as a close second....
taurus is the "we're the shit" sign.....

to further complicate things. astrological signs are supposedly broken down into subsections(?) know as decans....

not shit sign, were not supposed to care too much as caps and virgos. Caps are about projecting a image. Libra take somlon to decide on anything so they better be perfect.

I have this problem BAD!!! I get butt hurt if ppl I love don't see me close to perfect bc that's what I strive to be. Within the last year and a half, I have learn that there is not such thing as being "perfect" and to embrace constructive criticism and that its okay to show ur imperfections. I now have to stop being so hard on myself when something I work on doesn't turn out perfect.

I don't agree with what you say Re Taurus sign...

Taurus always putting themselves down...

Probably why I dislike associating with this sign sometimes...

Same here. It's the worst when your "mistake" is apparent to the ones you live. I'm licking my wounds as we speak. But I dont want to dwell on it too much, I just want to dig myself out of this hole.

OP its most likely the Pluto influence in your chart, see if you have any placements in it. Pluto try to remake you into a superman, it really push my emotions to a limit but when you look back at it, it actually has its merits too by making you a stronger person. Pluto forces you to face your weakness head on & almost put you in a shame mentally.

I think the main purpose of that is not actually to change to another person but be the best of YOU. That means accepting your strengths & faults wholly. That way you will respect & love yourself more, making you very optimistic in life 🙂

I'm an older taurus and have learned over the years to just listen more and stop trying to be perfect because there is no such thing - I grew into loving and forgiving myself for not being perfect and now I am very comfortable in my own skin! Stop the voices and live in the present. If you mess up, forgive it and forget it and move on and just think and do better next time. Life is just a big lesson to be learned.
