Horoscope: Why did you cry this week?

Scarlet & Black 2025-11-24

I think crying is really healthy. It’s a release of chemicals and built up tension, and it gets you a lot of attention and sympathy if that’s what you’re after.

Aries (March 21 – April 19): You tripped and skinned your knee

This isn’t something you would normally cry about, but it’s been a rough week and you haven’t been sleeping enough. Wednesday Moose wasn’t a good idea, get some sleep!

Taurus (April 20 – May 20): You saw an Instagram reel of an old dog being cute

SUPER understandable, and I’ve really been there. Tauruses are sensitive souls. This isn’t a sad cry, it’s more of a cry from something really sweet and tender. Kind of a good type of cry.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21): You told a story that no one understood or laughed at

In the moment you laughed it off, but once you got home you cried about it. Just a little bit. It’s okay, we all underperform sometimes! You’ll get ‘em next time, maybe practice your delivery in the mirror first.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22): You lost your lucky seashell necklace

This one is really specific but I’m almost positive it’s true. I really believe that you will find it though, keep looking! Don’t give up and don’t lose faith, the necklace is lucky for a reason.

Leo (July 23 – August 22): Your friend borrowed an outfit from you and it looked better on them

This is a really human moment that maybe you’re ashamed you had. Don’t beat yourself up, it was your first reaction. But take a breath and be happy for your friend.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22): You dropped an egg on the floor

It’s about wasting something you paid for and it’s about making a mess. It’s secretly about feeling like a little bit of a failure, but you shouldn’t. This could’ve happened to anyone. It was probably the egg’s fault.

Libra (September 23 – October 23): Your crush had a conversation with someone else

I get it, but you can’t cry about this when you’re too scared to even look at them. If your crush knew you existed, I’m sure they would like you back, so get over yourself and go say hi. Go interrupt that conversation next time.

Scorpio (October 24 – November 21): You accidentally liked a post from a really long time ago when Instagram stalking

We’ve all been there, but this one might’ve been particularly bad — a friend you had a falling out with? An ex’s new relationship? Your sneaky link who you secretly have feelings for? Shed a few tears, unlike it and know that everything will be okay.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): Your friends hung out without you

I bet they’re not ganging up on you, it was just like they talked about plans in person and then decided to go do it. It would’ve been nice if they reached out, sure, but don’t let it get to you. I bet they missed you a lot.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): You got a stain on your shirt and you can’t get it out

Maybe you put it in the dryer without realizing that the stain was still there, maybe it’s just not budging even an inch. Maybe this is a thing where you had a stain all day and didn’t realize. No matter what, it kind of seems like a dire situation worth crying about.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): A piece of music moved you to tears

Honestly a good reason to cry, but depending on the song it’s a little pretentious. Hoping this moment of sensitivity makes your day better instead of worse. Could go either way.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20): You cry every week

It would be more interesting to decide why Pisces had a normal day. Respect though, I cry a lot too and I love that you put it out in the open like that.
