What zodiac signs do people think of as "the best" and least problematic?
In your opinion, what is the best zodiac sign? (Interpret that however you'd like!) I love Pisces and Sagittarians, and I think some signs like Scorpio or Capricorn get bad raps, but personally I find Cancers and Leos to be big trouble. Curious what others have to say!

Well, Capricorn rules politics, it rules power, It rules the structure of law and order.
Taurus, however, is not so much sexual as sensual. Scorpio is actually the sign of intimacy, because they like to lay bare of all things so that they can get inside, and the sexual act isn't shallow: even in the most shallow acts there's still an element of "penetration," as it were. So that's why Scorpio has this reputation for being such as sexual sign.

Virgos may be the most pulled-together zodiac sign. They get an A+ when it comes to organization, spirituality, and adulting. They may not be the most polite when giving advice, but on the other hand, they would make a great mentor, and can truly be the pinnacle of what getting your act together looks like.

The most strong-willed signs would be the fixed signs- Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, and Aquarius, but theyre stubborn about different things. Aquarius in particular would be very strong-willed about their intellect and their intellectual property. They have ideas or beliefs that they are very strong-willed about. Scorpios are very willful about the personal power they wield, and Taurus is strong-willed about money.
Leo is one of the most dominant signs and they're driven a bit by insecurity. So, they always have to show up and be fabulous. But they're quick to shower other people with love, firing off compliments and giving gifts left and right, and they thrive when people are watching them and blossom when people dote over them.

I feel a bit called out (I'm a Taurus) but I'm not complaining as I know that it's true, at least it is for every Taurus I've ever met ( which isn't a lot but it's weird that I know more then 2 Taurus's (as I am very much an introvert))

In my book, Leos are my favorite signs because they're fun, confident, and make others feel good about themselves. I think Aquarius also get called weird and stubborn, but I love my Aquarius friends and would do anything for them!
Geminis are often maligned and in my opinion, it's for good reason; they're impulsive, two-faced, and flaky. Sagittarius, too, is impulsive, selfish, wishy-washy.
People like to hate on Scorpios for being edgy, dark, and manipulative, but they also have a bit of a fanbase because they're artsy, emotional, loyal, intense, apparently good in bed, etc. I tend to fall more into the Scorpio hate group, but I think it's just a reactionary response to all the love they get for being "misunderstood," haha. If you ask me, Pisces has all of Scorpio's good qualities and more and they deserve more love.

Thank you! Everyone for some reason hates my zodiac sign! What’s wrong with Scorpio?

Exactly! I’m Scorpio too! I don’t seem to show any traits they are said to have. I am joyful not dark and have lots of friends! I even earned a leadership role for being caring to other people! I think everyone has their own trait no matter what sign you are! Just keep believing in yourself! It don’t matter what trait you are “supposed” to be, you are yourself, your own person. It doesn’t matter what other people say, just keep believing!

Yes everyone will show different traits. With that being said I'm almost exactly like my sign which is.. Scorpio. I absolutely hate all the hate that scorpios get. We aren't manipulative. I just don't get it, Is it manipulative to be loyal ?

Not the Gemini and Sagittarius I know! My husband is a Gemini. He is the most helpful person I have ever met! Been married to him for 47 years. Everyone who has met him has always had only good things to say about him and that’s not to me. I’ve heard that from other people. My daughter is a Sagittarius and believe in , she is the least selfish person I’ve ever met. In fact I wish I could be more like her!

Oh please don’t try to pin us against each other as water signs 🙄stop projecting and being a hater at the end of the day good and bad Scorpio is there own individual and it’s what makes them unique so don’t try to ever fix your lips to downplay us . but I trust as a air sign you could never understand emotions and emotional intelligence .

Zodiac sign is not everything. It's all up to your personality and behaviour with people that makes you likable or hated . Every person has their own strength and weakness that you develop throughout your life. So , don't hate yourself if your zodiac sign seems to be the least likable. For experience and example, my zodiac sign is Leo which is most likable and social one but I am an introvert and many people hate me as well. Only a few people like me for who I am.

I feel like Libras are always so nice. They're really social and diplomatic so they are great at making group gatherings fun for everyone and keep the peace when they're in friend groups.
View hidden comment
Ok so I have noticed that a few air signs have not been mentioned and I think that is because libras for example are very low-key and are very easy to get along with, the only bad trait I can find on the internet about libras is that they can be manipulative and they rarely ever are. I may be a bit biased because my twin and I are libras.

I have one too! My nickname with my friends is Crybaby. I am a Virgo born on the cusp of Leo and with a Libra uprising (I had my chart done long ago).
I truly believe that astrology has a genuine base to it however each individual is still just that. The similarities/differences fascinate me between the signs and interactions yet I will not be confined to the virgo stigma of being not picky, naggy ect

I agree.I'm a Virgo too but my bestie is a Scorpio(why do you hate scorpios she is sweet and i can trust her no matter what) and yeah,school=hell/jail

I'd say the best zodiac sign is Sagittarius. One of my friends is a Sagittarius and she is so sweet, and never gets mad! She is very funny, and loves to be inclusive and helpful. She is quiet, yet loud at the same time. She can be frustrating at times, but she's the friend I argue with the least. Plus Taylor Swift is a Sagittarius so that automatically gives extra points (I love Taylor!)

My vote goes to Virgo. Everyone likes to talk trash about Virgos, but that attention is only coming from a place of jealousy. Look, Beyoncé is a Virgo—does it get better than that? I feel like Scorpio and Sagittarius are the two most popular signs when it comes to friendship and romantic partners, but Virgos are super underrated. They’re self-sufficient, analytical, and honest. If you want authenticity, it’s hard to imagine a better sign.

Okay, maybe I am biased as this is my star sign, but not many people are talking about Aries??? They can achieve anything, from academic and cultural excellence to physical excellence. They can be anything they want to be and are so determined! I personally think Aries is the best (obviously)!

I think Gemini is the best zodiac signs. I have Gemini friend, she is so loyal and she would stick up for what’s right. When people are unfair, she will absolutely stand up for what’s right and she’s honest but so kind. She gives you the honest comment, not the sugarcoated one, and she is kind to even the people she doesn’t like. She’s also really lively and outgoing, so that’s why I think Gemini’s are the best. Some people say Gemini’s are two faced, but I dont think they are really two faced to be honest.

imo capricorn is too cold and controlling so my least favorite sign. taurus is best at cooking, best in bed, stubborn but in a fun way. probably my number one.
View hidden comment
I'm a Libra and I had a relationship with a Capricorn. Never again! They're terribly cold and introverted (even though I am little bit introverted too at first, that's just too much). My least favourite sign together with Gemini (sorry, I can't handle your mood swings and your passive-aggressive attitude). My favourite signs however are Scorpios and Sagittarius, they match my personality 😊 I also like Cancers but their strong emotionality sometimes scares me ahaha

I personally love Leos! I really appreciate the bold energy they bring to hangouts and social circles. I'm also super indecisive so it's nice when my Leo friends are able to take the lead on things. I feel very safe around my Leo friends.

Taurus my opinion. I'm Taurus. 😜Taurus patient, love, caring, hard working, sometimes Taurus easy to cry😂 if virgo angry. Virgo is very playful, ✌️he is good love and caring and smart ...

I have a hard time with the really stubborn signs like scorpio, leo, taurus, aquarius. maybe that is the sensitive cancer in me! i've always had a soft spot for libras, but that may be because my mom is one and she's my best friend. i have an idea of libras as kind and responsible but i've heard other people say they are high-maintenance and passive aggressive.

Agree I. Can't get enough of these scroptios and can't resist tatur charm which reminds me my sister is a libra there such harmoniously charming raised by a Gemini mother and Sagittarius dad makes my astrology chart interesting.

In my opinion, I think Taurus, I mean they won't ever, ever let you down, they're the most loyal zodiac, you can trust them. Besides that they never give up, they'll get their goals done no matter the obstacles.

Omg tyyy for all the love to us Scorpios! we don't get half the credit we deserve and are almost always seen as the 'most dangerous' or most 'vicious' zodiac sign. i am nothing like the stereotype! i resemble more of a pisces than I do a Scorpio and my pisces bff is more like a Scorpio than I am! I'm just glad that I'm finally seen as something more than 'edgy' for once. we are very in tune with our emotions and are just looking for people to trust. ~to any other Scorpios, luv y'all!~

I’m a Virgo and a Leo which honestly kinda makes sense bc I’m very VERY extroverted with my friends but I’m also calm and peaceful sometimes :P also you ppl r prolly wondering how I can be both but its bc my birthday is the day right after Leo ends and right before Virgo starts if that makes sense :3

I think there will be always be a certain bias to how someone perceives a zodiac sign, the one that we are most familiar with is our own, say I am a Cancer and I know my best and worst side of myself, it really depends.

I believe personally that Aquarius and Sagittarius are the most unstable but that’s just me because I really value emotional stability, but I also think that Capricorn and Virgo and libra are the most stable

Disclaimer: Blanket statements for zodiac signs aren't accurate and every individual is unique.
Here are my thoughts, based on my personal experiences:
- Best signs: Aquarius, Gemini, Leo. These signs have been some of my closest friends. They all have their different strengths but some of the things that stand out are their kindness, intelligence, and organization. I can always count on them to be there for me, they give sound advice, and it's easy to plan things with them.
- Worst signs: Cancer, Virgo, Taurus. These signs have been "friends" who have backstabbed me. They have been self-centered and flaky. Broke my trust but at least they helped me learn how to pick better friends. Of course, not every Cancer, Virgo, and Taurus is like this.

My boyfriend is a Sagittarius so I think Sagittarius is the best sign :) I love how he and Sagittariuses in general are so open and communicative. On the other hand, my toxic friend that I recently stopped being friends with was a Cancer, so I think Cancers are the worst...She was manipulative and self-centered!

I am loyal, introvert, I rarely trust again if someone doesn't keep a promise, I wait for others to greet me first at a big social event, I am a homebody , I am sensitive and dislike when someone makes a joke out of a serious situation. But I was born on December 15. So my behavior is different from a Sagittarius. What zodiac sign do I act like and why I dislike tipycal sagittarius traits

For me, Cancers and Leos are best. Love 'em. But others are good too. Like in these years, I understood that it's not anything to do with zodiacs. It's the individual. Alone. So differs from person to person.

I am an Aquarius. My brother and mom are Gemini, they really are godsend. My brother has always helped save my life from bullies in my first school back in India, and has helped me for many other things. Both of them have never suspected me of doing something bad, since I was 5 I have been betrayed, bullied, lied to, gossiped about and blamed for someone else's mistake when in my whole life I've never used the f word or b word, never bullied anyone or cheated in exams, I've never done anything bad. I'm not a bad girl. What problem do people have with Aquarius, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Cancer. My dad is a cancer, some of my friends are Gemini, Leo, libra and they are very loyal, always been their for me or defended me and been their to make me laugh with their jokes, it doesn't matter how upset I am.
