These 5 Zodiac Signs Have No Luck In Their First Marriage
Your first marriage could fail if you belong to these 5 zodiac signs.
There are some events in life that shape us more than others. One of them is certainly marriage.
With this big step, we say “yes” to someone we love and want to share our lives with. But let’s be honest:
Not every marriage is meant to last forever. Often, it’s the first marriage that presents us with the greatest challenges.
Maybe you’ve already gone through a divorce or are about to tie the knot. You might also be wondering why some people find true love right away, while for others, it only works on the second or third try.
This is where astrology comes in, because your stars reveal more about your personal relationship dynamics than you might think.
There are some signs of the zodiac whose first marriage is often ill-fated. This isn’t because they’re incapable of love, but rather because their personality traits, expectations, and outlooks on life often clash at a young age and aren’t easily reconciled.
But don’t worry: That doesn’t mean you’ll never find true love. Quite the opposite: the experiences of their first marriage mature many of these signs so much that a second or even third relationship can be significantly more fulfilling and harmonious.
In this article, you’ll learn which five zodiac signs are at increased risk of failing their first marriage. Read on carefully; you might discover traits in yourself or in someone you care about.
Aquarius – the freedom-loving man who quickly feels restricted in marriage
If you were born under the sign of Aquarius, you’ve probably long carried this inner knowledge within you: You’re not necessarily the biggest fan of traditions; strict obligations or rigid structures are simply not your home. Freedom and self-determination are your lifeblood.
That doesn’t mean, however, that you’re fundamentally against marriage. On the contrary, you often choose marriage if your partner strongly desires it or because you feel like you’d like to at least try it out.
But therein lies the challenge: Your first marriage is often like an experiment that begins excitingly but does not always last.
At first, everything is intoxicating: You’re attracted to your partner’s uniqueness, to their little quirks that inspire you. You laugh a lot, you discover new things, and everything feels like an exciting journey.
But at some point, everyday life returns and those differences that once fascinated you turn into opposites that drive you apart.
Your love of freedom suddenly clashes with the expectations of everyday life. Suddenly, it’s all about obligations, routines, and expectations.
Maybe even around children, and it’s precisely in these moments that you feel confined, almost like you’re in a cage. As soon as you feel like you’re losing yourself, you instinctively pull the ripcord.
It’s often a mystery to those around you. Friends and family see you as the “shining dream couple,” and when you break up, it seems completely inexplicable to others.
But deep down, you’ve long known why you’re breaking up, even though it seemed harmonious on the outside. You were living a role that didn’t reflect your true nature.
Why Aquarians?
Astrologically, your sign is ruled by the planet Uranus. This planet represents independence, sudden changes, and freedom. This explains why you quickly feel constrained as soon as someone tries to force you into fixed patterns.
Tip for you: Don’t wait until the confinement suffocates you. Learn to show your partner early on that you need space for yourself. Your partner should understand that your love won’t fade just because you maintain your individuality. On the contrary, it blossoms precisely when you don’t have to bend.
Taurus – the security lover who despairs at the wildness of his partner
Taurus is known for its down-to-earth nature, loyalty, and longing for stability. For you, marriage isn’t a game, but a lifestyle that’s meant to provide warmth and closeness.
You thrive when you can create a home where you feel comfortable, with everything that goes with it: fine food, beautiful things, and a touch of comfort that makes you happy.
But here lies the trap: In your first marriage, you often tend to choose someone who is the exact opposite of you.
A free spirit who’s constantly on the move, who seeks adventure, who can’t sit still for long, and who has little use for rigid structures. At first, this seems exciting and attractive.
You think to yourself, “Oh, I can handle this, maybe I just need a partner like that to get me out of my comfort zone.”
But reality is different. Over time, the gap between you becomes apparent. While you dream of a familiar nest, your partner is drawn out into the world.
While you seek peace, he brings chaos. And at some point, you realize you’re wasting all your energy trying to attract someone who doesn’t want to be tied down.
When you start marking your territory, you’re met with resistance. Your legendary stubbornness ensures that you don’t let up, and so love turns into a tough power struggle.
Why bulls?
Your ruling planet is Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and sensuality. While other signs tend to experience a sense of lightness under Venus, you, as an earth sign, tend to develop possessiveness. For you, affection and love are inextricably linked with reliability.
Tip for you: Find a partner who shares your values and wants to create stability with you. With such a partner, your marriage won’t be a constant battle, but a place where you can finally find your place.
Pisces zodiac sign – the romantics who lose themselves in illusions
No other sign feels as intensely and deeply as Pisces. Your heart is big, your soul sensitive, and when you fall in love, you only imagine a shared future.
This is precisely your problem in your first marriage: You idealize your partner so much that you completely block out reality.
At first, everything seems magical and dazzling. Your partner’s strength, courage, and creativity magically attract you.
You get married quickly, sometimes even hastily, because it just feels “right.” But at some point, reality knocks on your door.
Suddenly you see that your partner may not be as flawless as you thought, and this realization hits you hard.
In addition, you need a lot of emotional closeness. You want to share everything, spend every second together. If your partner can’t give you that, you feel misunderstood and lonely.
You often lose yourself in a cycle of hope, longing, jealousy, and petty dramas. For you, it’s an expression of your love; for your partner, it sometimes seems overwhelming or even suffocating.
Why fish?
Your sign is ruled by Neptune, the planet of dreams, illusions, and spirituality. It gives you the ability to see beyond the facade and see a person’s potential.
But this very aspect makes it difficult for you to accept the sober reality.
Tip for you: True love doesn’t thrive on perfection, but on authenticity. If you learn to accept your partner as they are, your second marriage will be much more stable and fulfilling.
Aries – the stormy one who wants everything immediately
If you’re an Aries, you know how passionately and impulsively you can love. You’re someone who doesn’t do things by halves: When you fall in love, you do it with all your heart and all your passion.
But it’s precisely this intensity that often proves to be your downfall in your first marriage. You jump into the adventure with enthusiasm without taking the time to consider whether you’re a long-term fit. Your inner fire burns hot, but sometimes it burns out too quickly.
At first, your partner feels flattered: by your energy, your determination and your love.
But soon the downside comes to light: You want to be in charge, you set the pace, and criticism hits you particularly sensitively.
The consequences: arguments, power struggles, emotional distance. And since you’re not the type to suffer in silence, you usually prefer to draw a clear line under it rather than wear yourself out for years.
Why does it affect Aries?
You are ruled by the planet Mars. This planet represents energy, assertiveness, and combat. You are a born fighter, and this is reflected in your relationships. But not every partner is built to keep up with your pace.
Tip for you: Internalize that love isn’t a race. Love takes time to grow. If you learn this lesson, your next marriage will be calmer, more stable, and more sustainable.
Scorpio – the most intense, burning with passion
No other zodiac sign lives relationships as intensely and uncompromisingly as Scorpio. When you love, you don’t do it half-heartedly. Passion, devotion, and loyalty aren’t optional for you; they’re a given.
But it’s precisely this depth that can often be your downfall in your first marriage. Your desire for closeness often knows no bounds, and you expect your partner to love you back with the same passion.
At first, it feels good. You’re magically drawn to each other, almost inseparably connected. But over time, your partner senses that the breathing room is shrinking.
Your love, so strong and unwavering, tips over into controlling, and your vulnerability then shows itself in the form of power games and drama.
No matter how deep your feelings are, your first marriage has a tendency to end in drama and power struggles.
Why Scorpions?
Your ruling planet is Pluto. This planet symbolizes power, transformation, and deep emotions. You’re not superficial; you just want it all or nothing.
This makes you a partner full of depth, passion, and fascination, but also someone who can make a relationship enormously challenging.
Tip for you: Strength isn’t just shown in holding on, but also in trust and letting go. If you learn to give your partner space, you’ll find far more fulfillment and harmony in a second marriage.
Conclusion: Failure is not the end – it is the beginning if you allow it
It might seem sobering at first to read that certain zodiac signs are more likely to fail in their first marriage. But the truth is: astrological indications are not a definitive judgment.
Rather, they are like a mirror that shows you where your greatest desires lie, but also your blind spots. And that’s precisely where your opportunity to make a difference lies.
If you find yourself in one of the five signs mentioned (Aquarius, Taurus, Pisces, Aries, Scorpio), it doesn’t mean you’re “doomed.”
It simply means that you bring certain patterns into relationships: a desire for freedom, a strong need for security, idealism, fast pace, deep intensity.
These qualities aren’t negative. They’re powerful, provided you learn to live them consciously instead of letting them control you.
What you can really learn from a failed first marriage
Self-knowledge beats romance. True love begins with you. Ask yourself honestly: How do I love? What do I expect? What am I overtaxing? Without these answers, every subsequent marriage will simply be a repetition with new names, but the same script.
Communication isn’t a nice-to-have, but the foundation. Communication shouldn’t just start when things get tough. It must take place when everything is fine.
Talk about money, family, intimacy, sexuality, freedom, the desire for children, and values. Anything you keep quiet about will come back twice as hard later.
Boundaries aren’t walls, they’re bridges. They don’t mean “me versus you,” but rather “me and you.” Clearly stating your boundaries protects the relationship from unspoken expectations that can eventually become toxic.
Speed determines depth (and sometimes it saves it). Aries and Aquarius can learn to let go of the accelerator; Taurus and Scorpio, not to stick to the brake pedal; Pisces, to steer the direction instead of just following along.
Reality > Projection. Don’t idealize (Pisces), don’t domesticate (Taurus), don’t control (Scorpio), don’t dominate (Aries), and don’t reflexively withdraw (Aquarius). Look at the real person standing in front of you.
Rituals hold when emotions waver. A regular date night, honest weekly check-ins (“How are we doing?”), and shared vision boards are small anchors that have a big impact.
Seeking help is not a sign of weakness. Couples therapy, coaching, mediation: Don’t use it as an emergency room, but as maintenance. A once-yearly “love checkup” is cheaper than emotional total loss.
Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting, but moving on differently. You don’t have to belittle yourself, but you can let go. This gives you energy for the relationship that truly suits you.
How to prepare for a second chance
Reflect your zodiac signature pattern.
Aquarius zodiac sign: How much freedom do I need and how do I formulate it as an agreement?
Taurus zodiac sign: Where does caring turn into control and how do I practice trust?
Pisces zodiac sign: What concrete needs do I have, beyond “feelings”?
Aries zodiac sign: Where do I confuse clarity with dominance and practice patience?
Scorpio zodiac sign: How do I maintain closeness without clinging and how do I regulate jealousy?
Define shared values, not just shared plans. Marriage, house, and children are milestones. Values are your navigation system: honesty, loyalty, growth, freedom, team spirit. Three shared values carry you further than ten shared hobbies.
Establish your time in a contract. Write down what “time for me” actually means (hours, days, limits). If you define your time, you won’t have to fight for it later.
Talk about finances like it’s love. Transparency, budgets, responsibilities, safety nets. Nothing destroys marriages more quietly and thoroughly than unspoken finances.
Be intentional about co-parenting (if you have children). Clear structures, respectful relationships, and no conflicts of loyalty. Your couple story is over, but your parenting story isn’t.
If your star sign does not appear here
You’re not “safe” just because you’re not one of the five zodiac signs, and you’re not “lost” if you belong to one of them. Astrology describes tendencies, not destinies.
What matters is your level of maturity, your compatibility, timing, life circumstances and, above all, your willingness to grow together rather than fight against each other.
The most important change of perspective
A failed first marriage doesn’t mean that love isn’t meant for you. It often means that you were still learning to love yourself and, with it, the ability to create healthy, clear, and vibrant relationships.
Your second marriage (or next long-term relationship) will benefit from every tear, every conversation, every aha moment you allow yourself now.
If you take only one sentence from this article, it’s this: Astrology shows you where your trapdoors are. Consciousness builds railings over them.
