What are the most romantic zodiac signs?
Everyone has the ability to be a loving and caring partner, but there are people with a few personality traits that makes romance come naturally and easily to them. Some astrological signs specialize in whisking their partners off their feet while others have a more unconventional approach to showing they care. These are the most romantic zodiac signs (as well as the least romantic ones).
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
As astrologer Kimberly Shaw tells Bolde, “Pisces are known for their deep emotional sensitivity and their ability to connect with others on a spiritual level. They are often highly imaginative and creative. This makes them great at expressing their love through poetry, music, and other art forms.” Pisces are the dreamers of dreams. They can make a walk on the beach or a simple candle-lit dinner feel out-of-this-world. Reality just seems to melt away when you’re with them. That’s because romance is in their DNA. They know how to create the most amazing sensual experiences to achieve a high level of closeness with their partners.
Not only that, but they’re willing to fight or sacrifice in the name of love. If you’re dating a Pisces, they’ll prioritize your happiness even if it means trying to make your seemingly impossible dreams come true. When you think it cannot possibly get any more romantic than this, they’ll find a way to top it.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Those born under this sign are full of tenderness and affection. They’re understanding, loyal, and emotional. When it comes to romance, they know how to keep their partners on their toes. Creating excitement, fun, and emotional connections comes easily to them. Cancers are the most sensitive sign in the zodiac. They feel everything intensely. When they love you, you can feel how deeply they care in everything they do. You can count on them to hold on to special memories from your favorite song to that secret fantasy you confessed when you were both drunk. Most days with them feel like a breathtaking adventure.
“Cancer is a highly emotional and nurturing sign famous for their deep love and devotion to their partners. They are also incredibly intuitive and can sense their partner’s needs before they are even voiced,” Shaw explains.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
When you’re loved by a Taurus, you can almost always feel their love, like you could reach out and hold it in your arms. They’re skilled at giving you their romantic attention even in the most unromantic settings. For all their toughness, they can’t seem to turn off the emotional tap when they fall in love. They will write love poems about the smell of your hair and how they feel when you walk into a room. You don’t have to worry about the romance fading over time because the older the love gets, the more intensely romantic Taurus becomes.
Shaw adds: “Taurus is a sensual sign that loves to create a comfortable and luxurious environment for their partner. They are known for their appreciation of beauty and their love of good food, wine, and other indulgences.” It’s no wonder they’re one of the most romantic zodiac signs.
What are the least romantic zodiac signs?
Not all zodiac signs are created equal when it comes to love. These signs aren’t as into conventional romance as others, that’s for sure.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
When it comes to falling in love, it doesn’t happen easily for Aries. When it happens, however, get ready to be loved like there’s no tomorrow. This sign knows how to put in the effort. They’ll give anything they have to put a smile on their lover’s face. They’re bursting with passion and energy. Their ego can be a bit of a problem because they want you to love them better than anyone else, but they’ll try just as hard to earn that love. Get ready to be showered with attention.
However, this intense loyalty and care don’t always translate to romance. Sometimes, their way of showing love is pretty far from flowers and candlelit dinners. “Aries is a passionate sign, but they are also impulsive and can be a bit selfish,” Shaw says. “They tend to be focused on their own goals and desires, which can make them seem uninterested in their partner’s needs.”
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
These guys are surprisingly romantic once they let down their guard and come to trust the person they’re with. They never forget anniversaries or birthdays because traditions mean a great deal to them, but you shouldn’t necessarily expect them to throw you a massive party. They’re looking for honesty and someone who’s always trying to be their best self. They offer that in return, which is their version of romance. They can get frustrated at times when their plans don’t work out well, but it’s only because they care.
“Capricorn is a practical sign that values stability and security above all else. They can be a bit reserved and may not be comfortable with displays of emotion, which can make them seem unromantic,” Shaw reveals.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
“Aquarius is an independent sign that values freedom and individuality above all else. They can be a bit aloof and detached, which can make them seem uninterested in romance,” Shaw says of this intellectual and analytical sign.
As an Air sign, Aquarians can seem somewhat detached and flighty, though that’s not who they are deep down. They don’t often get taken by any sense of whimsy and therefore, they tend to be one of the least romantic zodiac signs out there. However, they’re also very assertive, so if they like you, they will have no problem pursuing you and making their interest clear. While conventional romance isn’t really up their street, they offer stability and dedication to their partners. You’ll always be able to feel secure with them.
What makes one sign more romantic than another?
While there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to astrological signs, you might consider the zodiac a basic framework for someone’s personality. With that in mind, it’s important to note that you might date someone born under one of the most romantic zodiac signs and they end up being one of the least romantic people you know (or vice versa). It’s all down to the individual.
“In my professional opinion, what makes the most romantic signs so romantic is their ability to connect deeply with their partners on an emotional and spiritual level,” Shaw asserts. “They can put their partners’ needs above their own and create a warm, loving, and supportive environment. Whether it’s through artistic expression, nurturing, or indulgence, these signs know how to make their partners feel loved and appreciated.”
