Fire signs - Bold and creative, the fire signs (Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius) are great to be around. Their flames burn very bright, although unfortunately so do their tempers.

Aries (March 21–April 19) -

The first sign of the zodiac and with a ram as their symbol, Aries are natural-born leaders. They are creative, confident, and, above all, incredibly determined.

Aries (March 21–April 19) -

On the flip side, Aries can sometimes seem arrogant and ill-tempered. They also have a tendency to make impulsive decisions that they'll later come to regret.

Leo (July 23–August 22) -

Leos also tend to be very charismatic leader-types. They are dominant and confident and, for the most part, loved by all those around them.

Leo (July 23–August 22) -

That doesn't mean they don't have their flaws, of course. Leos have a reputation for being somewhat inflexible, and occasionally arrogant or egotistical.

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21) -

Of all the star signs, Sagittarius is the most adventurous. People born under this sign tend to be fun-loving, amusing, and always in good spirits.

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21) -

The downside with Sags is that they have a tendency to be impatient. Of all the signs, Sagittarius is the one that always needs instant results.

Air signs - The sociable signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) are also great at making friends. They are sometimes so good that they verge on the edge of being people pleasers.

Gemini (May 21–June 21) -

Arguably the most sociable of the star signs, Geminis are great conversationalists. They are friendly and affectionate, and can make others comfortable in any situation.

© Shutterstock

Gemini (May 21–June 21) -

It is sometimes said that Geminis are actually too good at making friends. They have chameleon-like personalities that can make them difficult to trust.

© Shutterstock

Libra (September 23–October 23) -

For our Libra friends, nothing is more important in life than balance. Libras are great at improving their relationships with others, and they're very empathetic.

© Shutterstock

Libra (September 23–October 23) -

That said, they really hate confrontation. Unfortunately, Libras often find that their inability to confront people takes its toll on their own mental health.

Aquarius (January 20–February 18) -

Often considered the most rebellious and unusual sign, Aquarians are independent, creative, and always have wonderful ideas.

© Shutterstock

Aquarius (January 20–February 18) -

Unfortunately, some Aquarius babies do cross the line between independent and lonely. Some struggle with social skills and become the victim of their own personality.

Water signs -

The water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) are the most in touch with their emotions. They are caring and empathetic, but they sometimes let their feelings get the best of them.

© Shutterstock

Cancer (June 22–July 22) -

The most emotionally-intelligent sign of the zodiac, Cancers are emotional and caring. They are very empathetic and are adept at putting others before themselves.

© Shutterstock

Cancer (June 22–July 22) -

They can sometimes let their emotions get the better of them, however. Cancers often have a tendency to be insecure.

© Shutterstock

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

A famously misunderstood sign, Scorpios have strong personalities, which gives them a sense of reliability. They are also very supportive of others, and emotionally comforting.

© Shutterstock

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

The downside with Scorpios is that they can be jealous and manipulative. They are the sign most capable of twisting facts to suit their purpose.

© Shutterstock

Pisces (February 19–March 20) -

Pisces are also great at putting others before themselves, and they tend to be very caring, nurturing, and intuitive.

© Shutterstock

Pisces (February 19–March 20) -

The problem with Pisces is that they have a habit of playing the victim. Their preoccupation with winning people's sympathy can make them appear weak.

Earth signs - And finally the earth signs, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. These signs are (not surprisingly) very down to earth and dependable, although sometimes also stubborn.

© Shutterstock

Taurus (April 20–May 20) -

Taurus is probably the most reliable sign of the zodiac. People born under this sign are usually very down to earth and loyal; they are great people to go to for advice.

© Shutterstock

Taurus (April 20–May 20) -

They are often very stubborn, however. Our Taurus friends often find it difficult to admit when they're wrong, and they'll often avoid confrontation.

© Shutterstock

Virgo (August 23–September 22) -

The perfectionist of the zodiac, Virgo has an eye for detail that is rivaled by no other. People born under this sign are ruthlessly organized and ambitious.

© Shutterstock

Virgo (August 23–September 22) -

Unfortunately, their tendency towards perfectionism can make them overly judgmental. Virgos are the biggest overthinkers of all the signs.

© Shutterstock

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

Another ambitious sign, Capricorn is extremely practical and self-motivated. Caps will always use their logic and reasoning to make sense of the world around them.

© Shutterstock

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

Caps exude confidence in their own ideas, which can unfortunately sometimes make them seem arrogant. They can come across as a know-it-all.
