Is Your Zodiac More Likely To Cheat Or Be Cheated On?

Any zodiac sign is capable of cheating OR being a faithful partner. Predicting relationship behavior is most accurately done by looking at the entire birth chart (Mars sign, Venus sign, etc.). But some sun signs (the sign most people know about themselves, based on birth date) are more likely to cheat than others, based on their astrological traits. So, is your sign more likely to cheat, be cheated on, or both? 

Aries: Cheat

When you truly love someone, passionate Aries, you love with your whole heart. You give the relationships 110% and would never be unfaithful, especially once you settle down in a marriage. However, when you’re dating casually or aren’t feeling very invested in your relationship, you are prone to cheating. That’s because Aries people are known for being impulsive – you often act before you think about the consequences. And you can be a bit selfish and reckless, which is the perfect recipe for infidelity. 

Taurus: Cheated On

Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. So, this zodiac is naturally romantic and enjoys committed relationships. As an earth sign, Taurus is also known for being steady and reliable. This astrological combination means that Taurus people are unlikely to cheat. They are very honest and direct, and dislike the lies that come with infidelity. The only exception is if they want to end the relationship but don’t know how to go about it – they may cheat to force their partner to break up with them. Venus’ influence also draws them to attractive people, so it’s hard for them to turn down a gorgeous stranger’s advances.

Gemini: Cheat

As the zodiac represented by the twins, Gemini has a reputation for being two-faced. At best, this means they could have a multifaceted personality, and their lover gets to discover new things about them each day. At worst, it means they are duplicitous and very comfortable lying. Geminis are quite fickle, changing their mind about relationships and love from day to day. They are likely to cheat because they rarely feel satisfied by just one partner, and they’re not entirely sure what they want.

Cancer: Cheated On

Cancers love being in committed relationships, and they are intensely afraid of getting their hearts broken. They are also highly empathetic, so hurting their loved one causes them pain, too. They would never cheat because they know what heartbreak feels like, and they would never want the person they care about the most to experience that. Cancers crave trust and stability in a relationship, so they try to provide that for their partner, too.

Leo: Both

If a Leo is madly in love with someone, they will give them their whole heart and never be unfaithful. Leos are highly romantic, generous partners, and they can be loyal to a fault. However, Leos also love attention and hate letting anyone down (including rejecting other people’s advances). They also love to flirt, even within a committed relationship. So, if a Leo is anything less than 100% committed to their relationship, they might cheat. But if they are truly in love, they will only have eyes for their partner.

Virgo: Cheated On

Virgos tend to choose partners who are “fixer-uppers”: they see the red flags, and they think they can help their loved one change. But the truth is, you should never enter a relationship hoping that someone will become different; what you see is typically what you get. This often backfires on Virgos because their partner feels criticized and scrutinized, causing them to rebel and look for validation outside of the relationship. This certainly doesn’t mean that their partner cheating is Virgo’s fault; it just means they can avoid this heartache by trusting their gut and ditching the “fixer-uppers.” Instead of giving someone they already know isn’t right for them a chance, they should stick with someone who only shows green flags from the beginning. 

Libra: Cheat

Although Libras are usually sweet and mild-mannered, they have a flirtatious, people-pleasing side that gets them into trouble. Guided by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, Libras are naturally charming and attract admirers everywhere they go. They are social butterflies and love going out with friends to meet new people. Libras enjoy being in a committed relationship, but their inability to say “no” combined with their coy personality makes them cheat.

Scorpio: Both

There’s nothing Scorpios desire more than finding their soulmate. When they’re in a relationship, they adore their partner to the point of obsession. If they’re in love, they are unlikely to cheat. However, Scorpios are deeply sensitive and have a very high sex drive. If their emotional and physical needs are not met, they may look outside the relationship to satisfy them. Scorpios are also masters of revenge, so if their partner is unfaithful, they may cheat just to get back at them.

Sagittarius: Cheat

Sagittarians crave adventure and freedom, and they hate feeling stifled by a committed relationship. It’s not in their nature to settle down, so romantic partnerships can be challenging. If their relationship makes them feel smothered or not quite like themselves, they may cheat to get a taste of independence again. They have a hard time changing their single lifestyle and breaking the habit of hooking up with whoever they want, whenever they want. Sagittarians also love to party, socialize, and travel, so they are often in situations where they could easily cheat.

Capricorn: Both

Capricorns are notoriously picky when it comes to relationships, so it takes a lot for them to commit to someone in the first place. But they take their commitments seriously, and when they enter a relationship, it’s like a binding contract. For the most part, they are unlikely to cheat – when they find someone special, they don’t want to jeopardize the relationship, and they don’t like the messiness and drama of infidelity. However, they are skilled at compartmentalizing their emotions – so, if they do cheat, they are able to hide it well and not feel guilty about it. Capricorns only cheat on a partner they do not respect, and they would be better off ending the relationship.

Aquarius: Both

Aquarians cherish their independence, so they tend to avoid entering committed relationships. They are also brutally honest, so they’re more likely to break up with you right before hooking up with someone else instead of cheating. But once they’ve committed to you and officially labeled the relationship, they take their promise seriously. If they do cheat, it would probably be online through apps or messages. They cheat to rebel and get their sense of freedom back, if they’re already unhappy in the relationship.

Pisces: Cheat

It may come as a surprise that Pisceans are prone to cheating. After all, they are incredibly romantic and can make devoted partners. When a Pisces is obsessed with you, they won’t have eyes for anyone else. But Pisceans change their minds frequently and are people-pleasers. If they’re not completely in love and someone else propositions them, they have a hard time saying no. They can also delude themselves into thinking that what they’ve done isn’t that bad or doesn’t really qualify as “cheating.” Pisceans cheat when they don’t feel a profound emotional connection within their relationship. They want a fantasy love life, and once the initial spark and excitement of a fresh relationship fades, they may find their eyes wandering to someone new.
