A First-Aid Kit for Family Feuds

Family squabbles happening more often than you’d like? Read on to find out how you can transform old patterns by recognizing your Sun sign’s bad habits and tendencies.

Aries
Your first impulse in any kind of situation is to take action. Sometimes this is the perfect course to take, other times not so much. During your next family fight, try the wait-and-see approach for a change and see if that gives you better results.

Taurus
You’d rather things just continue the way they always have, as change is not easy for you. But when family conflict rears its ugly head next, try practicing a bit of flexibility instead of your usual stubborn m.o.

Gemini

Communication is a great thing and everyone knows you’re pretty good at it. But what would happen if during your next family fight you tried sitting silently and let others do the talking?

Cancer
It can be extra hard for you when family conflicts arise, as your caring nature wants to make it all better. Try letting someone else be the mama next time a fight arises, as it may help you may get a new perspective on it all.

Leo
Being the star of the show can get tiring, especially when the show is called “family fights”. Step out of your dominant role next time a conflict arises. Listen and observe rather than engaging in all the action.

Virgo
It’s in your nature to want to make everything better. When the next fight arises, try stepping out of your fix-it role and let someone else solve the problem while you just focus on yourself instead.

Libra
Your sign tends to be the caretaker of the family. Think of yourself first the next time a family problem arises. What do you need, want and feel? Let everyone else know where you stand.

Scorpio

You can sulk over a family problem but it still won’t change anything. Your road to emotional freedom rests in letting go of old hurts. Try it -- you’ll feel much better after the next family argument.

Sagittarius
If you could actually sit still long enough to hear a family argument, you’d probably make progress. Get involved in the next family conflict long and weigh in. Share the responsibility that family togetherness demands.

Capricorn
When family conflict arises, you’re more focused on keeping things stable than you are on the emotions of the parties involved. Feelings are important! Pay attention to your emotions and communicate your feelings.

Aquarius
You’d rather negotiate a community conflict than a family argument. Bring the feelings, passion and intensity you have for your community, home, so your family can know just how much you care.

Pisces
Your intuition is strong and you hate to see anyone suffer, so you may subtly solve family conflicts even before they arise. Try not to take on too much responsibility for others; instead, create a soothing environment for yourself.
