“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Zodiac signs provide us with great insight into our personalities. They are a useful tool for self-discovery and can help us to make the best decisions based on our nature.
Of course, all twelve zodiac signs are amazing in their own right!
However, for fun, I am going to rank them from worst to best and explain how I made my choices.
You might be surprised by the results. Before reading, I need you to make a virtual promise not to get too mad at me if your zodiac sign doesn’t rank too highly!
This is purely based on my opinion (which may include some personal bias…)
So let’s dive in: Which is the best zodiac sign?
In this we will cover:
- What is a zodiac sign?
- The 12 zodiac signs ranked from worst to best
- How zodiac signs can help you
What is a zodiac sign?
Zodiac signs, sometimes called astrological signs, are based on the twelve sectors of the ecliptic. The concept of the zodiac first originated in Babylonian astrology and formed links between human traits and celestial objects.
Your zodiac sign is directly related to your birthday. Each sign has its distinctive characteristics, some positive, and some… well, not so positive.
However, your zodiac sign is just one of many ways to find out about your strengths, weaknesses and mission. If you really want to get a more holistic view I recommend also looking at your full birth chart (there are many free birth chart calculators online) and your numerology.
In my list of the best zodiac signs, I have considered the good and the bad points of each of the twelve signs and ordered them from worst to best. Some will find it to be flattering whilst others may want to close their laptop or launch their phone across the room in disgust.
I guess you can’t please everyone!
Let the games begin!
The Best Zodiac Sign – From Worst to Best
Taurus
Apologies to all you beautiful Tauruses out there. I’m sure you will be reading this thinking: “what a load of old bull!” (no pun intended).
Tauruses are born between the dates of April 20th and May 20th. They are ruled by the planet Venus and are highly compatible with Scorpios and Cancers.
So why exactly are they the worst zodiac sign?
Well, for starters, Tauruses tend to have a very stubborn side which frequently makes them impossible to win arguments with. Although this is a great quality for winning debates, it can be frustrating to the person who is always on the losing side.
Another factor that contributed to Taurus being ranked bottom, is their tendency to be possessive.
They’re that kid who brought toys to school but never let the others have their turn.
The Taurus is represented in Zodiac signs as the Wandering Bull. They often close up in their worlds and wander around the world in search of happiness and fulfillment.
Ok enough of berating Tauruses, it’s time to redeem myself by looking at some of their amazing qualities.
A Taurus possesses incredible staying power, which ensures that when they start a project or endeavor, they see it through until they reach satisfaction.
They are patient beings, who have a great appreciation for the arts, nature, and physical pleasure.
If you need practical advice, you’re sure to get it from a Taurus. They’re not known for beating around the bush and will tell you exactly what they think the best plan of action is.
Despite ranking them 12th in this list, there are no denying Tauruses are amazing people who have all the attributes required to live happy and productive lives, and if they let you get close, they become great friends.
Libra
And the zodiac sign that is going to be second-most angry with me is… Libras!
Let’s get the awkwardness out of the way. I chose Libras as the eleventh best star sign (that sounds better than the second-worst) because of a few reasons.
Firstly, they are very hard to read.
Libras hate confrontation, and this can cause them to dwell on problems, blowing them up in their minds until they become much bigger than if they would have just gotten it off their chest initially.
They are prone to holding grudges against those who have wronged them. I hope this isn’t true in my case!
Libras are born between the dates of September 23rd and October 22nd. They are ruled by the planet Venus and are highly compatible with Aries and Sagittarius.
Luckily, Libras have some pretty incredible qualities which outweigh the negatives.
These diplomatic beings are dedicated to fairness and will do anything to keep the peace. They love to have balance in their lives and are most happy when they are around friends that they can trust.
Libras are on an endless quest for self-discovery. They enjoy discussions concerning deep topics and absorb knowledge from books.
They walk around the earth with a feeling of lightness that brushes off all negativity.
Sagittarius
Born between November 22nd and December 21st, those with a Sagittarius zodiac sign tend to make promises they cannot keep.
Unreserved with their opinions, they are the kind of person who can’t help but point out the pimple on your nose that you are hoping no one would mention!
They tend to be impatient and dislike theories that don’t align with their common sense.
Despite all that, these wonderful creatures are full of energy and enthusiasm for life. They love to travel to spiritual places, and are wholeheartedly extroverted, making them great companions for an adventure.
Gemini
Next up, we have Gemini. People with this zodiac sign are born between May 21st and June 20th, and they are most compatible with Aquarius and Sagittarius.
Let’s get the negatives out of the way first. Geminis tend to be indecisive and struggle to stick to their decisions.
They get nervous when under pressure, and this can affect those around them.
However, it’s not all bad. Geminis are some of the most gentle and affectionate people you will come across, and they genuinely have a heart of gold.
They’re extremely fast learners and when they feel at ease, they come up with creative ideas through their unique way of thinking.
Pisces
Now that we’re getting into the middle section of the list, hopefully, Pisces won’t be too displeased with their ranking in the best zodiac signs.
Pisces are born between the dates of February 19th and March 20th. Perhaps their worst quality is their tendency to make themselves into victims, and dwell in unhappiness.
Introverts by nature, they like to escape from the real world and instead cut themselves off, which can be a nightmare for close friends and family.
Conversely, they have some quite wonderful qualities too.
Pisces are usually brilliant artists and communicate their deep feelings through creative outlets like music, writing, or painting.
They are also very gentle beings, and always think the best of people.

Aquarius
Those with the Aquarius zodiac sign are most compatible with Leos. They are born between January 20th and February 18th.
These people have a hard time facing up to their emotions, which can cause them to become detached from the real world.
They can also be rigid in their views and unwilling to compromise if they don’t agree with another’s perspective.
However, Aquarius zodiac signs are also undeniably original. They march to the beat of their drum, and as a result, can create things that others could only dream of.
They can sometimes appear shy and reserved, but when they want to, they will take center-stage and wow the crowd.
Cancer
People with the zodiac sign Cancer are born between June 21st and July 22nd.
The drawbacks of these people only become apparent when they fall into a bad mood.
When this occurs, they can become pessimists, overlooking the good in their lives and focusing solely on the bad aspects.
At their worst, they can manipulate others to get what they want.
But at their best, they are amazing human beings with vivid imaginations and unwavering loyalty!
Cancers feel their emotions strongly and this makes them brilliant friends who will tell you exactly what they are thinking at the moment.
Capricorn
Now we’re getting into the top-tier of zodiac signs. Capricorns are people born between December 22nd and January 19th.
Their negative qualities are few and far between, but they are prone to having a superiority complex and believing they know everything about, well, everything.
Capricorns also tend to expect the worst, but this also helps them in a way.
They transform their pessimism into practicality and are highly disciplined, responsible people who have incredible self-control and rarely allow others to lead them astray.
Aries
People with Aries zodiac sign are born between the dates of March 21st and April 19th.
They suffer from a short-temper and can be difficult to be around if they are frustrated or in a bad mood.
They also have a tendency to follow their impulses without considering the consequences.
But, Aries redeem themselves with their incredible courage in the face of adversity.
They are also very honest people who can are great to confide in.
When they are in good form, Aries are optimistic and enthusiastic about life in general.
They are highly organized people who work hard to achieve their goals.
Their happiness depends on finding their passion and giving it their all.
Scorpio
Now we’ve reached the three best zodiac signs. Hopefully, you haven’t gotten too upset and are still reading this post!
Scorpios are born between October 23rd and November 21st.
Their only bad qualities are that they can slip into distrust, and be skeptical of other people’s motives, even if the other person is being sincere.
Pushed to their limits, they can become consumed by jealously and express this through rage or anger.
On the other hand, Scorpios are some of the bravest people around.
Their passion for life is contagious, and they are extremely loyal to their close friends, to the point where they would put themselves at risk to protect someone they hold dear.
Virgo
The runner up in our list of the best zodiac signs is Virgo. Born between August 23rd and September 22nd, Virgos are highly compatible with Pisces and Cancers.
Their negative points include overly worrying, retiring into shyness, and taking life too seriously.
This can cause Virgos to become distant from other people. They tend to be reluctant to form close bonds.
To counteract that, these people are unbelievably loyal to the people they do choose to let in.
They are also driven; hardworking and kind to everyone they meet.
Leo
It’s unanimous – the award for the best zodiac sign goes to… Leos!
Born in the summer months between July 23rd and August 22nd, Leos are fascinating people.
Although they can come across as arrogant, lazy, and self-centered, their positive attributes more than make up for these pitfalls.
If this sounds familiar, starting a solid routine will likely be of great value to you.
When a Leo is in good spirits, they are highly creative beings who inspire others to share their innate passion for life.
They are always making people laugh, and keeping the spirits high.
Leos are the type of person who pays for your drinks all night when you’ve forgotten your purse or wallet.
Conclusion
I hope that you’ve enjoyed this list of the best zodiac signs, without becoming too offended, or big-headed due to the results.
Zodiac signs are a great way to find out more about yourself, and the knowledge can be implemented into your everyday life to maximize your strengths and avoid situations that are likely to make you feel bad.

well, I really enjoyed while reading your opinion about all the zodiac signs.
and the way you ranked all the signs, also giving some light on there personality was “Amazing”!
I also saw you ranked Leos as the best zodiac sign of all….
And guess what I’m a Leo too.
I’m really happy that somehow you managed to write your opinion about all the signs not worrying about anyone but you wrote the truth, and I’m IMPRESSED.
I do appreciate you but I also want to know your zodiac sign too.
It was really nice replying you,
Thankyou.
Hi Noor, congrats on being the “best” zodiac sign! I am a Capricorn 🙂
I’m a Aries and I believe every statement you made it was all true
My guess was Leo as well
Hey Great Post! As a leo I appreciate you knowing we’re the best! Keep up the solid work. One day we will live in a world of leos only. The revolution is coming!
Im taurus :/
And you are doing the best! I Love taurus but the person who did this nailed it you are one stubborn bull. but still have the biggest hearts and will do absolutely anything to help a person.
LOVE IS LOVE and if you can’t love the dents in your life then you cant love the smoothed path to be.
I’m a gemini and I found it very much true for me
I BET THIS BITCH IS A LEO AND IS TRYING TO MAKE HERSELF LOOK COLLER IN THE MOST ‘PROFESSIONAL WAY’ EVER. lol
The big reveal… I’m actually Capricorn! 🙂 Tried to stay unbiased.
I’m a Leo and I believe everything stated in this article was absolutely true! It’s so fascinating to read about how signs are viewed or described by professionals.
Thank you Emmanuel for the kind words. May God bless and show you favor. Love from a Taurus.
I’m a scorpio and that was spot on true!
Hola! Good job!! I’m a virgo and virgos are always on top! Leos are good too.. but scorpio is a little bit confusing.
I respectfully disagree hunny I am Libra I am not difficult Ahem I am actually the second best sign the first best sign is Sagittarius it’s my opinion anyways I feel very offended so pls watch your mouth honey 🙂 I am kind loving supportive beautiful and don’t get mad when I say beautiful I’m just having confidence in myself if you don’t mind I do think I’m smart I actually am very smart I try to fix any problem even if it’s a tiny or big problem cause people say I’m a drag in problems but it’s still a problem and it’s my job to fix it 🙂 so next time go find a Libra and study on them more :/
Scorpio here. I agree w everything here except the Leo part. Let’s just agree to disagree. I don’t see them in such a good light. Capricorns are my fav!
As a Capricorn, I’m very happy with your opinion 🙂
People who put virgo, cancer and capricorn on top… their opinions doesnt matter
I am scorpion and a shy personality ,i mean i overthink about result also but why you said that scorpion are the on of the bravest sign.
You may have heard the saying that our biggest weakness is what we will overcome in this life. For example, I’ve always been very shy so I never thought I would make a living as an influencer and Youtuber in the future, but I overcame my fear and now I’m comfortable in the public eye. Perhaps you will overcome your fears too and become incredibly brave?
I’m a Gemini and totally agree with this! I also know a Leo and they definitely deserve the recognition!
It is an opinion, actually. As an Aquarian, I do believe Leos are the best but I strongly believe that the other signs are just as important, too. We are all individuals and I don’t think the world would be much better if everyone were a Leo. The article isn’t quite amazing, either. I’m sure there were at least a few people who were offended, or took it personally. Try to focus more on being the fun, creative Leo that you are rather than being arrogant.
Is it bad to be a taurus 🙁
YESSSS BABBYYYY LEOS ARE THE BEST
I think it still depends on the individual. I am a Sagittarian and I am nothing like what you have described. I am dependable, kind, dependable, loving, caring, smart, dependable and I like differences. I thrive on change and difference among other things. My mom was a Leo and she was the best mother!
