Let’s be honest.
Lying is a part of human nature. It’s done to protect someone, for personal benefit or simply because we’re too lazy to face the consequences of our faults by telling the truth.

The reasons and methods for throwing around those lies vary among different Zodiac signs, which is what we shall explore here and see what astrology has to say about how wildly each sign exaggerates or falsifies.
