These zodiac signs are at risk of a fall depression

You know how it is. Summer is officially over, your beach bag is somewhere under a pile of woolen sweaters, and suddenly it seems like your mood has disappeared along with the sun. You still try though — you buy a pumpkin spice latte, a candle with the scent ‘Forest Whisper’ (what even is that?), and you dutifully go for a walk with an autumn playlist in your ears. But deep down you already feel it: you are not an autumn person.

While some go all out on cozy blankets, Pinterest-worthy autumn cakes, and forest walks with rosy cheeks, others mainly feel the urge to hide under a duvet and only emerge when it's daylight... somewhere in April.

And guess what? The stars really have something to do with this.

Some zodiac signs are just a bit more sensitive to the seasonal change than others. Because they need more light, because their energy levels fluctuate, or simply because they mentally go into hibernation as soon as the clocks change.

So: who are those melancholic types who prefer to get through autumn with a hot water bottle and a therapy subscription? Let’s find out.

Pisces – Overstimulated and under-stimulated

Let’s start with the most sensitive of the class. Pisces feel everything. Not only their own moods but also those of their surroundings, society, world news, and the neighbor's cat. And when it rains outside and it’s quiet inside, those feelings suddenly hit hard.

Autumn is for Pisces like a melancholic Instagram filter over life. Poetic, yes. But also: heavy.

Tip for Pisces: Play music that truly makes you happy (no Sufjan Stevens please), move a little every day, and stay in touch with people — even if you’d rather crawl under your duvet with a blanket of existentialism.

Cancer – Home, tree, panic

Cancers love home. Warmth. Security. Sounds autumn-proof, you’d think. But the transition from light to dark hits Cancer like a wet autumn storm in your neck just when you’ve done your hair.

They become more emotional than usual (yes, that can happen), withdraw more quickly, and suddenly feel less like socializing. Plus: the dropping temperature feels to them like a declining emotional barometer.

Tip for Cancers: Create a fixed autumn ritual. Think of a Sunday soup afternoon, an autumn book on your nightstand, and a weekly walk with yourself. Keep yourself warm from the inside out.

Libra – Light, love, and... a slight dip

Yes, even the charming, elegant Libra (hello, autumn child!) is not always in her element in the season she was born in. This is because Libras find it difficult to stay balanced when their energy level suddenly fluctuates.

They need sunlight, social connections, beautiful things to look at. And those long, dark days? No one gets prettier from that — not even the mirror.

Tip for Libras: Look for beauty in small things. A beautiful autumn walk, an inspiring book, or a nicely styled autumn table. Keep your environment (and your inner world) light and airy.

Capricorn – Hello, performance pressure. Goodbye, sunlight.

Capricorns always do their best. They want to move forward, grow, achieve goals. And in autumn, it sometimes feels like life is in a kind of slow motion. Everything takes longer, people respond slower, and the drive they normally feel is now buried under a layer of autumn leaves and self-doubt.

They are not necessarily sad, but rather... flat. Irritated. Tired. As if life is just a bit too slow for their taste.

Tip for Capricorns: Allow yourself to occasionally do nothing. Lower your standards a bit and celebrate every small victory (like getting out of bed on time, or getting some fresh air).

And who stays cheerful in autumn?

Not everything is gloomy, you know. There are also zodiac signs that just thrive in autumn. Think of:

• Virgo: those who indulge in autumn routines and hygge planning
• Sagittarius: those who are already busy with Christmas markets and ski trips
• Leo: those who can finally show off their autumn wardrobe
• Aries: those who set new goals as if it’s January

It’s not just about the stars

Yes, some zodiac signs are more sensitive to autumn depression than others. But let’s be honest: the combination of rain, darkness, and the disappearance of terrace happiness is a in Mallorca? And where am I actually in this whole story? I can't open Instagram without seeing Hailey Bieber gliding by on a jet ski in a lemon yellow Pucci set. challenge.

So: be kind to yourself (and your friends with these zodiac signs). Send a text, plan a lunch, pull someone out of her blanket. Because sometimes one good conversation with a friend is exactly what you need to feel the sun a little again — even if it sets at 4:49 PM.
