What Each Zodiac Can Teach You About Relationships

Love can be life-changing in many ways. It can break you, mold you, and form you into a whole new person, whether that comes in the form of a long-lasting love or a horrific heartbreak. Every relationship can teach us something valuable, even the ones that feel like the biggest waste of time. If you are in love with or have been personally victimized by someone, their zodiac sign might give you a clue as to what love lessons you can learn from them.

Aries

Aries tend to be bold and passionate, which is exactly what they will teach you in a relationship. Their boldness projects onto you like a firework and forces you to confront your feelings head-on and not push them to the side because they’re too messy. No matter how complex or complicated, an Aries will show you how to tackle those emotions with passion.

Taurus

A Taurus appreciates the finer things in life and wants to revel in every moment together. Because of this, they can teach you how to enjoy the moment and truly pamper yourself. Whether that’s a romantic picnic in a grassy, flower-filled field while your phone is on Do Not Disturb, or it’s a luxuriously warm bath full of bubbles, rose petals, and the sounds of your favorite jams in the background, a Taurus will show you the way to treat yourself and your partner. 

Gemini

Geminis are all about communication and child-like wonder. In a relationship, a Gemini can teach you how to be fully open to communication and how to receive it. A Gemini will treat their relationship with the same excitement as a kid’s first time at Disney World. That relationship will continue to grow and evolve into something deeper, but their ability to communicate and keep things full of wonder will drive you to keep the spark alive. 

Cancer

A Cancer is a highly empathetic and nurturing sign, but they’re not that way for just anyone. It takes time to get past the crab’s tough exterior, but when you do, all of the nurturing goodness is ready for you. Cancers will teach you to protect your heart until you’re ready to reveal it and how to show incredible vulnerability when you do finally open up to that special someone. 

Leo

Leos are prideful, confident, and love the spotlight. That type of commotion can be overwhelming for someone who isn’t as naturally confident as them, but that’s what a Leo is here to teach you. Leos will do their best to boost their partner up so you two are on the same playing field. Their self-love will encourage you to seek out the parts of you that you don’t love and turn them into your greatest strengths. 

Virgo

Virgos are known to be perfectionists and incredibly practical. They may not always be the most expressive and tend to be a bit more calculated, but a Virgo can teach you how to show love in different ways. When we think of showing love, typically It is grand gestures and love letters and all of the beautiful things that rom-coms want us to believe. A Virgo will show you that, sometimes, taking out the trash or folding the laundry is the biggest tell of love in a long-term relationship.

Libra

Libras are all about balance in their lives and especially in their relationships. A Libra wants a partner who is not only their greatest love, but their best friend too. Finding that harmony and balance between spending one moment snuggled together and baring your soul and the next laughing until water comes out your nose is key for any Libra. They will teach you how to not only love your partner, but like them too. 

Scorpio

Scorpios are hard to lock down and until they feel fully invested, they will protect their heart from you. Once you’re in, you’re in for life and their loyalty runs deep. A Scorpio will teach you to hold out for someone until you are 100% certain about a future with them. Not only that, but they will also teach you what true loyalty is, not just loyalty for showman’s sake. 

Sagittarius

A Sagittarius is an adventure seeker and amusement enjoyer. They tend to be incredibly independent and want their partner to be also. Being with a Sagittarius means having the confidence to do things on your own while they are also out doing their own thing. This relationship will teach you how to maintain and create your independence while still being able to prioritize a partner. 

Capricorn

Capricorns are the responsible and reliable zodiac sign. They know what they want, how to get it, and when they will get it. They can teach you a great deal about maturity and how to be a dependable partner. If you’re ready to settle down, a Capricorn will show you a mature relationship full of trust, a solid foundation, and reliability. They will always have your back and you will learn how to reciprocate. 

Aquarius

An Aquarius is creative and thinks outside the box. They want to be different in a sea full of similarities and they will always march to the beat of their drum. In a relationship, that uniqueness will drive you to seek out innovative and creative endeavors for yourself. Maybe you’ve been wanting to start a blog or learn photography but just haven’t made the time or felt confident enough to do so. That’s where an Aquarius comes in. They will show you that, in the realm of creativity, there are no wrong ways to express yourself. 

Pisces

Pisces are ruled by their feelings and their intuition. If a Pisces says something or someone doesn’t feel right, they’re typically right. It is that innate sense of intuitiveness that a Pisces will trust and lean into that many others don’t have. In a relationship with a Pisces, they will encourage you to trust your gut and go with your instincts always. Even if the deal seems sweet, if something is off, a Pisces will know.
