Looking for that person who can add special positive dynamic to your life? Depending on your zodiac sign you might need a person who possesses a skill that you are current lacking. This is not to say that you have been looking for love in all the wrong places. Just that on your quest for “happily ever after” you overlooked an area in your life that with the right mate could allow you attain a new level of self-enlightenment.
Soulmates are sent to us to cultivate our deepest held desires and wishes for the future. These people, whether they are lover, friends or family, are our biggest cheerleaders and advocates. They are able to see you and accept you, for exactly who you are: strengths, weaknesses and quirks. When you work in concert with them you both will reach untold levels of personal success.
Below are particular traits you should look for in a mate based on your zodiac sign:
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Someone who can challenge you and call you out when necessary!
Aries value mates who know when they are about to make a mistake and aren’t afraid to stop a rash decision. You should look for a partner who can be your equal and inspire you to grow both as individuals and as a couple. Look for someone who seeks to uplift you rather than weigh you down.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Someone who motivates you!
Taurus can easily fall into a rut, and that can be a dangerous thing. You should look for someone who sees your potential and isn’t afraid to push you outside your comfort zone. They aren’t harping on you, but instead sees untapped potential and will move mountains to help you achieve remarkable success.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Someone who gives you stability
Gemini often juggle multiple ideas, hobbies and passions simultaneously. If they aren’t careful, everything can come crashing down in a blink of an eye. You should look for someone who values your multi-tasking, but helps you prioritize which area you should focus on first. As you feel more grounded in your life, you will begin to feel safe and more confident in your ability to thrive.
Cancer (June 20- July 22)
Someone who can be your emotional and nonjudgmental vault!
Cancers only have a hard exterior, because their insides are so vulnerable. Look for a love that can be your best friend, lover, confidant and motivator all rolled into one. You will know you found last love when someone is truly reliable, patient and compassionate to your emotions, thoughts, feelings and actions.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Someone who sees beyond the “act”
Leos are born superstars and crave the limelight. However, being the star can come with a number of pressures and expectations. Do you feel like you constantly have to be happy, entertain or filled with enthusiasm? Then seek out a partner who can not just see your quirks but love you more because of them. This will help you realize that you only have to answer to your personal creed and not put on a mask for anyone because you are great just the way you are.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Someone who empowers you to treasure yourself
Virgos can be perfectionist to a fault! By constantly holding up a mirror, they get so fixated on the flaws or imperfections that they can fail to see the unique beauty beneath. Find yourself a person who teaches you that quirks make peoples and items more special and valuable. Rewarding love for you means letting go of anxiety surrounding insecurities and learning to embrace the crazy, happy chaotic moments of life.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Someone who teaches you the value of “me time”
Libras are the social butterflies of the zodiac. However, with all this attention they can miss out on the most rewarding relationship, that of being with themselves. Without having a strong sense of self and self-reliance, Libras run the risk of becoming codependent. Seek out a mate who teaches you that time alone is healthy for the soul because it provides vital space and perspective. Also, when you are able to enjoy time alone you will be able to become more independent, calm and learn to appreciate the quieter moments in life.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Someone you can trust implicitly
Scorpios “sting” because they are afraid of being hurt. Therefore, you can put up unnecessary walls that prevent people from seeing how remarkable you truly are as well as your many talents. A perfect partner for you is someone that makes you fee safe, is reliable and strong. They will be able to help you dismantle your walls a bit so you can tap into your full potential and create windows for people to see you true wonderous essence.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Someone who appreciate the spontaneous moments in life
Sagittarius craves adventure and exploration. A healthy partner for you is a person who loves checking out the new hotspots or experience the latest trends.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Someone who can see deep into your soul
Capricorns can appear at first glance as one-dimensional. However, a fulfilling relationship for you is when someone understands the richest of your inner world, and celebrates it. When you have a partner, who can see the kaleidoscope that is you, you can breathe a bit easier and feel safe to explore new facets of yourself and the world around you.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Someone who supports you, even when they find your ideas bizarre
Aquarius likes to think outside the box, A LOT! This can be too much for people to handle at times, and as such you have been hurt. You need a partner that strikes the balance between reigning in the foolish or unsafe ideas while still knowing how to support you, advocates for your goals and values your desire for self-expression.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Someone who inspires and uplifts you
Pisces craves deep spiritual and emotional connections. You need a partner who isn’t afraid to get DEEP, while helping your express your creativity and encourages you to maintain a more positive mindset.
