When you’re in love, you act different than usual. Your hormones are going wild, and you wake up and go to sleep thinking of someone else. Love can make us act completely out of character, and you might find yourself singing in the grocery store or going out of the way to pick up your love’s favorite sushi.

The way we act and the sensations we feel when we’re in love are distinctive for each of us, specifically the aesthetics and sensations of being in love.

Does your zodiac sign really affect the way you feel in the greatest/sometimes worst feeling of all? Check and see if your sign matches how you feel when you’re blissfully, and insanely in love.

Aries (March 21 – April 19): Love feels like wildfire

As an Aries you’re not afraid to be adventurous and bold, and you’re one for the grand gesture. If you barely know the object of your love, that doesn’t matter; you aren’t going to wait until they make the first move. You’re insatiable when it comes to love, and are a caring albeit intense lover. You feel as if you’re a hunk of burning love.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20): Love is a test

Taureans are strong, and can go for however long it takes for you to complete a task. You feel selfish with your love and won’t just give it out freely; it must be earned. You feel strongly but your feelings are buried down deep.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20): Love is a never-ending mystery

While Geminis may be versatile and sociable, you rely on what goes on in your head rather than what you feel. When you’re in love, you’re mixed up and don’t know what to expect. You enjoy the surprise and the excitement, but love keeps you off-balance. At least you never feel bored.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Love is comforting

Cancerians have a deep love for home, and they truly treasure their friends and family. Since, as a Cancerian, you’re guided by your emotions with almost everything, when you find love you bask in its warmth. Love for you feels like a warm blanket on a chilly evening.

Leo (July 23 – August 22): Love is all-consuming

As a Leo you have a tendency to demand that the spotlight be on you. But when you’re in love, you become obsessed with the person you love. You think about them constantly, even when they’re right there with you.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22): Love is personal

Virgos tend to be over-thinkers, and can be critical of themselves and others. You have that fluttery feeling in your stomach whenever the person you love comes near, but instead of immediately hugging and kissing them, you’re more likely to make a sarcastic comment or hit them playfully on the arm. You’re scared that if you really let go with your love, you’ll lose it big time.

Libra (September 23 – October 22): Love makes you feel out of balance

As a Libra, you have an appreciation for art, beauty, and harmony. You want everybody to be happy and have a good time. You express your love constantly through thoughtful gestures or small affectionate touches, but you feel off-kilter, as if your heart is a separate entity.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21): Love breaks down walls

Scorpios love having a big and bold life, and you love fearlessly. You experience love and all emotions very deeply, and have a tendency to feel a bit possessive about the people you love.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): Love is self-discovery

Sagittarians are bright, enthusiastic and upbeat. You’re always passionate, so when you’re in love you feel that passion multiply. You’re happiest when you’re pleasing the object of your love.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): Love is a never-ending mission

Capricorns can be rigid and too responsible. When you’re in love, you feel like all aspects of the relationship are on you to make it work. You love with the intent that it will last forever and you’ll do anything in your power to see that it does. It’s OK to share some of the responsibilities of the relationship with the other person, though.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): Love catches you off-guard

Aquarians want to save the world and sometimes get so wrapped up in their humanitarian causes that they forget about their hearts. Love usually hits you when you’re not looking for it. When you’re in love, you feel dizzy and sick to your stomach (but in a good way). Everything feels fresh, as if the two of you are learning a new dance together.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20): Love is hopeless devotion

Pisces have a lot of feeling and are always thinking of others. When you’re in love, you’re devoted to the person you love. You feel dreamy, and as if someone really gets you. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
