Let’s face it, punctuality comes naturally (and is more important) in some birth months than others. Some people arrive at least ten minutes early for everything, whether it’s a job interview or a casual night out with friends, while others are so late that you wonder if they’ll ever show up. Here are five birthdays that should plan to give themselves extra time to go somewhere, and why they’re always late.
June
Tune natives are multi-taskers who have so much on their plates that they have trouble managing time. They have busy social calendars and are always making new plans, from a pottery class to a happy hour with colleagues to a weekend outing with the family. They think they can do it all, and most of the time, they can – but they can’t do it all in time.
Your June-born friend might show up twenty minutes after your meeting time because she was straight from dance class, or your June-born co-worker will come into the office late because she was late from a networking event the night before. They may always be late, but you wouldn’t blame them for being lazy or lonely.
July
People born in July value your time and worry about hurting your feelings by being late, but they can’t seem to make up for it. Even if they give themselves plenty of time to prepare, something happens that makes them run late.
As sensitive and sensitive as they are, those born in July may succumb to strict time constraints. It is not uncommon for them to cancel plans at the last minute, even after spending hours physically and emotionally preparing to go out. The crab sign likes to retreat into their shell – even the thought of coming out can be exhausting. Those born in July are cozy homebodies who would rather be in their bed or couch than anywhere else. Although they care about you and their responsibilities, their ignorance makes them late because the truth is that they are reluctant to go anywhere.
August
People born in August are one of the most confident and outgoing birth months. They are not worried about being judged for being late; if anything, they worry that they will look “cool” if they are too early or on time. They want to fit in and have all eyes on them, and are experts at showing up “fashionably late.”
People born in August also take a good time getting ready to go anywhere. They have perfected their look and want to make sure everyone stops and stares when they arrive. Whether they’re dying their hair a bright neon color or putting together an eye-catching outfit, those born in August prioritize their appearance over punctuality.
October
October natives are ruled by Venus, the planet of art and beauty. Due to the influence of Venus, those born in October care a lot about beauty and appearance. It is important that they look good and they can be a little too perfect when it comes to their style. They are willing to be late if it means their dress and hair are right.
Those born in October are also notorious for making decisions. As a symbol of balance, they can endlessly weigh the pros and cons of any situation. They struggle with even trivial choices, such as what shoes to wear, what gift to get the host, whether to walk or drive, etc. Between their indecisiveness and need to look good, it’s surprising that those born in October end up getting anywhere.
December
The only thing a person born in December can do at the moment is catch a flight (and even then, they tend to cut it very close). This birth month is fiercely independent and refuses to be bound by any constraints, including time commitments. They are unusual things and they work in their own way.
If you’re close to someone born in December, you’ve probably run into them a time or two when they’ve been drinking. When it appears in the sign of Sagittarius, “I’m on my way” means “now I remember we had plans and I’m getting dressed in a hurry,” and “I’m ten minutes away” means “In ten minutes I’ll start thinking about what I need to do to get out of the house.”
March
People born in March are so lively and worldly that they cannot be expected to adhere to worldly norms such as time and punctuality. This birth month always has its head in the clouds, and they certainly don’t daydream about ticking clocks.
In fact, losing their alarm is often the reason why those born in March run late. These gentle souls need many hours of rest and regular sleep, so it’s no wonder they tend to oversleep. Why trade their sweet dreams for the harsh reality of early mornings and tight schedules?
