How to Impress Your Astrology-Loving Girlfriend
So, your girlfriend is into astrology. She checks her horoscope, references Mercury retrograde like it’s a sworn enemy, and casually drops phrases like, “That’s such an Aries thing to do.” Meanwhile, you nod along, wondering if Mars in Gemini is a car model or a space mission.
Good news: You don’t have to become an astrology expert overnight to impress her. But learning a few key things can go a long way. Here’s your guide to speaking her language (at least a little bit) and showing you care about what she loves.
Step 1: Know Your “Big Three”
If you take one thing from this article, let it be this: your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs are basically the cheat codes to astrology. They sum up your personality in a way that might make your girlfriend’s eyes light up when you mention them.
Knowing your big three and the meaning behind them are a surefire way to win big points with the astrology loving women in your life. Not sure what yours mean? Lucky for you, there’s an easy guide here: The Big Three: Sun, Moon & Rising Sign Meaning
Step 2: Casually Drop Your Signs into Conversation
Once you know your Big Three, mention them. Not in a “Hey babe, I’m a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon, and Leo Rising—how cool am I?” kind of way (unless that works for you). Instead, use it naturally.
Example: If she says, “Ugh, Mercury is retrograde, no wonder my texts aren’t sending,” you could respond with, “That explains why my Virgo Rising has been overanalyzing every message I type.” She’ll be shocked (and maybe impressed) that you actually know what that means.
Step 3: Ask Her About Her Signs
Want an instant way to get on her good side? Ask about her signs. And when she tells you, listen. Even better, ask what they mean. Astrology people love talking about their charts, and showing genuine curiosity will earn you serious points.
Bonus move: If she tells you her Moon sign, you’ve unlocked relationship wisdom. The Moon represents how she wants to be comforted. If she’s got a Taurus Moon? She probably loves good food and cozy nights in. Gemini Moon? Keep things interesting with fun conversations and spontaneity.
Step 4: Don’t Talk Down on Astrology (Even If You’re Skeptical)
Even if you think horoscopes are just fun entertainment, don’t roll your eyes or dismiss astrology as nonsense. Respect goes a long way. Instead of saying, “I don’t believe in that stuff,” try: “I don’t know much about it, but it’s interesting how many people connect with it.” You’ll sound open-minded, which is always attractive.
Step 5: Know the Basics of Mercury Retrograde
Three to four times a year, Mercury appears to move backward in the sky, and astrology folks take notice. It’s blamed for tech issues, miscommunication, and general chaos. If she says, “Mercury is retrograde,” just nod solemnly and say, “That explains a lot.” She’ll respect your awareness.
Step 6: Buy Her a Thoughtful Astrology-Themed Gift
Want to really impress her? Surprise her with something astrology-related. A birth chart reading, a candle with her sign, or a book on astrology shows effort. Pro tip: If her Venus sign is in Taurus or Libra, she’ll appreciate something aesthetically pleasing.
Final Thoughts: You Don’t Have to Believe, Just Show You Care
At the end of the day, you don’t have to become an astrology pro. Just showing an interest in something she loves can make all the difference. Who knows? You might even start finding it interesting yourself. And if nothing else, knowing your Big Three is a great icebreaker.
Now go forth and impress your astrology-loving girlfriend!
