How to Tell When Each Sign Lies?

Let’s face it – there is a liar in every zodiac sign and of course, the reasons for throwing around falsehoods vary from one storyteller to another.

Zodiac Signs and Lies

How to tell if Aries is lying: You may have to catch them in the act. While Aries are known to be an honest sign when they do lie they themselves can believe their own lie and that’s why it is so easy to believe them. A lot of times their lie is to justify something. Sometimes an Aries lies to make themselves seem more impressive.

How to tell if Taurus is lying: Taurus usually only lies when they are trying to keep the peace or is trying to make someone feel better. To catch them in a lie you have to go with your intuition and pull the truth out of them. Being like “Are you sure that’s what they said?” or “Just tell me the truth” is something you might have to do.

How to tell if a Gemini is lying: Gemini is the type of person whose lies build up on top of each other until they all collapse. Gemini’s are quick thinkers and can be good at lying. They usually lie to get out of a sticky situation, to elaborate a story, or sometimes to make things interesting. A lot of Gemini’s however have a tell such as looking at the ground when they lie or become restless/twitchy. Maybe it is a tone in Gemini’s voice or the fact that they talk super fast when they lie. It might take a few tries but eventually you can figure out a Gemini’s “tell”. Or just wait until their lies catch up to them.

How to tell if a Cancer is lying: Cancer usually practices self-deception more than lying to others. Because of their wild imaginations and tendency to be self-protective they lie to themselves a lot. If a Cancer does lie to others they are white lies or they do it because they have to so they can protect a loved one. It can be hard to tell if a Cancer is lying.  You will have to ask the “right” kind of question to get a straight answer out of a lying Cancer. When it comes down to it you have to ask yourself are their actions lining up with their words.

How to tell if a Leo is lying: If a Leo lies it is usually about themselves. Exaggeration is what they do more than lying. It can be easy to catch a Leo in a lie because there are usually small mess ups they make and holes in their story.

How to tell if a Virgo is lying: Virgo can be a great, great liar if they try but the thing is they hate lying so much that usually it is very obvious when they do lie. Lies usually backfire on a Virgo or they stop telling it halfway through because they can’t even fool themselves. For the Virgo that is able to lie be wary of them. 


How to tell if a Libra is lying: A Libra is good at lying and they do it mostly to protect their image or someone else’s image. It can be hard to call a Libra out on their lies. Unless you have caught them red handed over and over again and know they are a liar (which is very likely to happen) you might have to wait until their stories get carried away and they can’t support them anymore.

How to tell if a Scorpio is lying: A Scorpio is not dishonest yet the line between the truth and falsehood can always be a little blurred for them. When they do lie it is usually about how they feel. While Scorpio is known as the famously mysterious sign they actually aren’t that hard to pin down when they are lying. Simply their actions don’t line up with their words. Of course more than often this causes confusion to the people around them rather than someone coming to the conclusion that they are lying. Because Scorpio is influential and good at manipulating it may come off as if they are master liars but if you pay attention they didn’t lie… they just didn’t tell you something or commit to something.

How to tell if a Sagittarius is lying: Sagittarius is known as the most honest sign and for the most part they usually just exaggerate or delay telling the truth rather than lie about something. When Sagittarius is in trouble and doesn’t want to take the blame they usually shift the blame onto someone else rather than lie. So catching them in a lie is going to be hard because technically… most Sagittarius don’t do it. You can get frustrated that they took a while to tell you something. If a Sagittarius gets around to twisting the truth it will probably be messy because they are not very skilled in it. Or it will be such a small lie that you probably won’t even care.

How to tell if a Capricorn is lying: Capricorn can be a good liar. No one ever suspects them to be up to something or to do wrong because they like to keep a good reputation. A Capricorn liar usually lies about their private affairs and to save face. On the bright side they rarely lie about their feelings. To find out if a Capricorn is lying you will probably have to go through someone else. A witness or close friend of the Cap in question is who is going to tell you the truth.

How to tell if an Aquarius is lying: An Aquarius will lie when something doesn’t seem right to them. A lot of times Aquarius just embellishes a story or dramatizes to get their point across. To catch them in a lie you need to ask them more questions about the subject and look them straight in the eye.

How to tell if a Pisces is lying: Pisces is a extremely convincing liar. They don’t forget any details and knows how to make a story relatable. Now the interesting thing about Pisces is that they don’t like to hurt people, a lot of times they believe their lies. It’s part of how they interpret reality. They may say you stole their scarf when you clearly borrowed it but they honestly believe you stole it. Another reason a Pisces would lie is because they are trying to protect a loved one or they are afraid of a loved one finding out the truth because it would hurt them. It might take a lot of investigation to find out if Pisces is lying or not. Usually you only find out the truth because they confess from guilt.
