Astrology isn’t just about how compatible the sun signs of you and your crush could be. It’s also a way of connecting with your unique talents and what you bring to the table.
That’s why we’re identifying what helps every sign thrive in their dating life—specifically on apps. If you’re not sure where to start a conversation or how to keep the messages flowing, let this guide inspire you.
Aries: Bring the Energy
You know how to get people excited and start the party, so take that upbeat energy to your chat. Don’t be afraid to take the lead and suggest ways to take the conversation offline and into IRL. Use your imagination to dream up a stellar date that keeps them on their toes.
Taurus: Expertise is Everything
You’re all about the finer things in life, and you know how to show yourself a good time. Invite your date into your world and be generous with your expertise, whether it be about the best places to eat or what makes your heart happy.
Gemini: Speak Your Mind
Words and carrying the conversation come easily to you, and that means less work for the person on the other side. Just make sure that you don’t have to do all the talking yourself. It takes two to tango (and banter!)
Cancer: Curate Your Connections
You connect deeply with the important people in your life. That’s a talent worth cherishing. Don’t let your discerning taste get in the way of letting new people in. Focus on what you value in the people you care about, and let it guide how you decide which people are worth your time and energy.
Leo: Cast a Charm Spell
Your charisma is obvious to anyone who’s in the same room with you — and you can convey that in the digital space, too. You know how to craft a killer bio and shoot the selfie of your dreams, ensuring everyone who comes across you knows exactly who you are and what you’re about.
Virgo: Attention is Intention
Your attention to detail and your laser focus is the stuff of legends, so flatter your match with the full force of your thoughtfulness. Show them you care by picking up on the details on their profile and following through with conversation that builds on what you’ve observed.
Libra: Flirt With Diplomacy
You can’t please everyone, but you certainly like to try. You’re willing to go the extra mile to see things through someone else’s eyes, and you’re not afraid to change your mind. Compromise is key while getting to know someone new, and your open mind allows you to connect with matches who see things differently.
Scorpio: Skip the Small Talk
You’re never afraid to go deep. Get real from the get-go to hone in on the people who can keep up with your intensity, and don’t worry about those who aren’t into it. The connections you make go from 0 to 100, which can be a good thing. It means you don’t waste time on matches that can’t get on your level.
Sagittarius: Surprise ‘Em
You love to push boundaries and are thrilled by any chance to spread your wings. A connection approached with this attitude is never boring. You’re happy to suggest unconventional ways to get to know someone both online (think: a series of “Would you rather” questions) and off.
Capricorn: Tell It Like It Is
Who needs a lot of back and forth? Your ability to be direct might catch some people off-guard, but it serves you well. You know exactly what you want and you’re not afraid to ask for it, which means you’re bound to find someone who can meet your needs (if they can also meet your high standards!).
Aquarius: Flex That Intellect
You can’t be an expert in everything, but that’s never stopped you from trying. Impress your potential date with your wide-ranging interests and expertise. Just make sure you listen as much as you share! You might even learn more along the way.
Pisces: Extend Your Empathy
Connecting with people is your bread and butter. You know better than anyone how to tease out deep conversations from casual chatter. When you invest your emotional intelligence into really listening to another person, you’re also able to share a lot of yourself, which prompts authentic and long-lasting connections.
