I was watching The OA the other night, and I thought to myself, “Whoa, this is one helluva claustrophobic show.”
Every scene leads to some kind of breath-grabbing trap, where the characters are all gasping for air.
And while this is mere fiction, it got me thinking about astrology and how some of us get that trapped feeling more often than not.
While The OA is a TV show, and the parts about being trapped are fictional and over the top, it’s still not unrealistic for us to feel as though we too can be trapped, or at least feel it in some very acute ways.
What makes the zodiac signs feel trapped?
Each zodiac sign has their own special version of what it’s like to feel trapped.
We don’t all fear or run from the same things, nor are we programmed or designed to feel trapped simply because something traps us.
Depending on our sun sign, we tend to express or feel that claustrophobic sense of entrapment in different ways.
ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
You feel trapped when you are in a relationship that demands more of you than you ever wanted to give.
Love and romance may be your big thing, but in the long run, it’s your way or the highway, and if it isn’t going swimmingly well, it’s a trap for you.
