(Spoiler: if you wronged them in 2012, they still remember—and they still don’t like you.)
Astrology isn’t always soft light and positive vibes. Sometimes, it throws on a leather jacket, opens the grudge ledger, and calmly asks, “You think I forgot?” While some zodiac signs have the forgiveness of a golden retriever on vacation, others take emotional betrayal and tuck it neatly into a well-organized vault…with timestamps.
So which signs are most likely to hold a grudge longer than your expired Netflix password? Let’s gently expose the signs that don’t just remember—they plot.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Oh, Scorpio. The vault-keeper. The emotional steel trap. Scorpios don’t forget—and they rarely forgive, at least not fully. You could apologize with a handwritten letter, a bouquet, and a notarized statement of remorse, and they’ll still raise one eyebrow and say, “Noted.” Their grudge isn’t always explosive—it’s quiet, dignified, and terrifying. They may smile in photos with you. Don’t be fooled. They’re still tracking your sins.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Taurus doesn’t throw tantrums. They marinate. They slow-roast their irritation until it’s tender, flavorful, and served cold. If you betray a Taurus, they’ll sit on that feeling like a grumpy dragon hoarding resentment instead of gold. They aren’t out for revenge—but they will emotionally shut you out like you never existed. That silence? That’s not peace. That’s war in velvet.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Cancers are deeply emotional and nurturing—until you cross them. Then they become emotionally nurturing to everyone else, while building an internal shrine to how you wronged them. They replay the scene, rewrite the dialogue, and weep during their own private Oscar-worthy monologue. The grudge becomes part of their emotional furniture. They don’t always lash out, but don’t expect a clean slate unless you show up with a full repentance ritual and a hug.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorns don’t lose their cool. They just take names. They’re busy building their empire, and if you betray them, you’ve simply earned yourself a permanent spot on the “Never Trust Again” spreadsheet. Caps may not yell, they may not cry, but they will ice you out with the precision of a Swiss banker. You’ll be kept at a distance—and not just physically. You’ll be socially demoted. Permanently.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Virgos don’t even want to hold a grudge—it’s just that you were so illogical in your betrayal. They want to forgive, really…but they also want to dissect the situation 56 more times and explain why it was completely avoidable. Their grudge comes with spreadsheets, bullet points, and subtle corrections to your grammar during your apology. If you’re lucky, they’ll forgive you eventually—but they’ll always remember that you used the wrong there in a fight.
Honorable Mentions:
Aquarius – They’ll detach so fast you won’t know whether it’s a grudge or a full-blown social exile. Spoiler: it’s both.
Leo – They might forgive you if you apologize publicly, dramatically, and with great admiration. Otherwise? You’re off the stage.
Aries – They don’t really hold grudges—they throw them like javelins in real-time, yell a bit, and move on. Unless it was really personal. Then they’ll just win at life to spite you.
The Grudge-Free Angels:
Let’s give a gold star to Sagittarius, Libra, Gemini, and Pisces, who tend to let things go (at least until the next moon phase). These signs are more likely to cry it out, laugh it off, or forget it entirely. Don’t mistake it for weakness—it’s emotional strategy. They’ve learned that holding grudges is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to get acne.
Whether you’re a petty Scorpio or a peace-preaching Pisces, grudges say less about your sign and more about how you protect your energy. Still…it’s probably a good idea not to borrow a Taurus’s stuff and forget to return it.
Because if you did…they remember.
