You, regardless of your zodiac sign, have probably experienced this at some point: someone you are attracted to does or says something seemingly inconsequential, but it ends up being a huge and instant turn-off. Just like that, you feel disgusted, and once someone gives you the ick, it can be hard to undo it.
But, could the zodiac sign play a role in how easily someone gets disgusted?

For those who are not chronically online, getting “the ick” is a term popularized on TikTok, and refers to the sudden and intense feeling of repulsion towards someone you were previously attracted to. The ick can be triggered by a small action, or even by imagining the person doing something in your mind, and it is certainly not always rational or justifiable. It just is, and once it happens, it is almost impossible to go back.
There are many reasons why some people may end up getting the ick more than others. This psychological phenomenon can result from insecurities or past experiences. But, looking at it from an astrological perspective, there are some things to consider. Looking at the modalities in astrology can be helpful, as the four mutable signs of the zodiac tend to change their minds quickly and accept when something is over, so once they get disgusted, they won’t hesitate to move on.
You can also look at the placement of the serious planet Saturn in someone’s natal chart, as this ringed giant can be especially severe and cold, and tends to lead with tough love. Because of its rigorous and critical influence, someone with a prominent Saturn in their chart can be a bit more demanding or picky than the average person.
All zodiac signs have little things that immediately disgust them on a date, but there are some zodiac signs that get irritated easily.
Virgo (August 23 to September 22)
Ruled by the sharp and intellectual planet Mercury, Virgos are naturally observant and analytical, and they notice almost every little detail in front of them. And because practically nothing goes unnoticed by them, it is almost too easy for them to catch someone doing something that triggers disgust.
These hawk-eyed earth signs can’t help but notice little things that others might overlook, and unfortunately, some of the things they see may end up being a turn-off. Virgos are also one of the mutable signs of the zodiac, so they are prone to changing their minds in the blink of an eye, and can easily decide that someone is no longer a dating candidate based on something relatively small, without looking back.
Virgo is the sign associated with purity, and they are symbolized by the maiden of the earth au naturel, so they like to keep things simple, streamlined, and natural. That is why anything that seems too flashy, complicated, or unhealthy will be an instant turn-off for them. Someone even remotely unhygienic or sloppy is virtually guaranteed to scare off a clean and organized Virgo immediately, just as any behavior that seems cheesy or makes someone appear overly desperate for attention.
Capricorn (December 22 to January 19)
Capricorns get irritated very easily.
Capricorns are ruled by the severe planet Saturn, so they can be very picky when it comes to choosing a partner, and moreover, they are highly prone to having issues. When they are dating, these dedicated and hardworking earth signs are usually looking for someone to commit to long-term, so they are less likely to let a turn-off slide, even if it is something relatively small.
Practical Capricorns are pragmatic and down-to-earth, but they also have a strong intuitive side, so they generally trust their instincts even when there is no rational explanation. This means that once they get hit by a problem, they will probably interpret it as a sign that the person simply is not compatible with them and move on.
Capricorns know the value of their time and energy and also strive to respect other people. That is why seemingly small things like being a few minutes late, being a little indecisive about plans, or not seeming to take responsibilities seriously enough can be instant turn-offs for these earth signs. Capricorns do not open up to people very quickly, so when they do, that emotional closeness is important to them, so if they feel that someone is acting selfishly or superficially, that can also trigger an ick.
