5 Zodiacs Who Become More Popular Later In Life
Some people are just born oozing natural charm. They are sociable, extroverted, and they may be a little self-centered in the sense that they love basking in others’ attention and approval of others. They may even push it until people get tired of their insatiable egos as time goes by.
Leo and Aries are two such types. They love being admired. Scorpios tend to be more popular when they’re young because they’re so damned sexy—and, like it or not, sexiness doesn’t age well.
When it comes to sociability, some signs are late bloomers because they’re either quieter, more introverted, or maybe a little offbeat.
Some studies have shown that people who find success, happiness, and social acceptance later in life tend to share two traits:
- They are naturally curious.
- They are intensely patient.
Here are five zodiac signs who, due to the combination of their quirky personalities and perseverance, tend to get more popular as they get older.
1. Virgo
As the zodiac’s arch-perfectionist, Virgo naturally extends this trait to perfecting themselves. Whereas at first, they may seem a little too wrapped-up in their own intellectual and spiritual pursuits, they also absorb information and social cues from others like a computer downloading valuable data. Their journey is one of constant self-evaluation and renewal, so if they’re not exactly the center of attention while young, as they veer toward middle age and older, they become like a polished gem that naturally attracts the attention of others.
2. Sagittarius
Over their lifetime, the zodiac’s most brave, curious, and adventurous sign collects fascinating real-life experiences as if they were colorful seashells along a beautiful shoreline. The older they get, the better their stories become—whether shocking, inspirational, fascinating, or heartbreaking. The older they get, the more that people want to gather around them like acolytes waiting to have some wise sage drop pearls of wisdom for them to enjoy. The reason that Sagittarians are the best storytellers is simply because no one else has better stories.
3. Aquarius
The zodiac’s great idiosyncratic rebel, Aquarius may seem aloof to some, but it’s only because they’re so creative that they would rather listen to the beautiful music playing in their own head than whatever most other people are yapping about at any given time. They march to the beat of their own drum, but as time goes by, others slowly realize what a great beat it is. Since Aquarians are so innovative, it takes the world a while to catch up with them. In a nutshell, that’s the reason why Aquarius will find more social acceptance later in life. When they’re younger, people just can’t figure them out.
4. Capricorn
In the ancient Greek fable The Tortoise and the Hare, a slow-moving turtle eventually wins a race against an arrogant, impulsive rabbit. The fable’s moral is “Slow and steady wins the race.” This is Capricorn’s secret to finding social acceptance later in life. They are disciplined, responsible, methodical, and they keep their eyes on the prize. While other signs are busy being vain, distracted, and focused on short-term pleasure, the Goat uses wisdom and patience. As they round the corner toward the final stage of their life, they see that others are hot messes who still linger far behind them. And this is why the others learn to respect them, admire them, and wind up seeking their approval.
5. Gemini
This may seem like an odd choice for this list, because Geminis tend to be social butterflies who love to mingle, rub elbows, and be the life of the party. But even though they are sociable, it sometimes takes a long and often painful process of trial and error before they become socially intelligent. For a while when they’re younger, others can sense that Geminis aren’t outgoing so much as they are needy. But give them a little bit of time—and, in special cases, tons of time—before they learn to hone their legendary communication skills. Eventually, they will learn how to beguile people rather than bug them.
