With a grain of salt, we can say that the zodiac sign matters in love, at least in the beginning, when it comes to catching the attention of someone who doesn’t know us. Especially if we need to catch the attention of someone we don’t physically have in front of us, like on Tinder.
Why Online Dating Is Better Than Traditional Dating
That’s why it’s better to find out right away who you’re dealing with and act accordingly to give the match a well-deserved happy ending.
On the other hand, more and more Tinder members like to describe themselves in their bios with their zodiac sign.

Especially those born under the sign of Leo, who stay true to their main characteristic: pride. It’s no coincidence that they’re the most common sign found in Tinder bios, followed by Libra and Taurus.
The most discreet and shy? Capricorn, who end up at the bottom of the list among the signs present in bios.
And, among the 12 zodiac signs, two stand out as the best swipers: Aries and Gemini. Surprised? We’re not!
Two signs with strong personalities, capable of captivating even from their smartphone keyboard.
Next, we have Sagittarius, who, although less frequent than the others, are among those who have the most success.
Here’s what you need to know about each sign for a swipe that aligns the stars.
How the Zodiac Signs are on Tinder
Aries: They like to be in charge, even on Tinder
Before swiping, remember that Aries individuals are natural leaders and will likely remind you of it in any situation.
Aries can’t help but talk about themselves, and their bios are often filled with their interests, with a special mention of “anime” reading.
Charming, yes, but definitely demanding. However, they take the top spot among the best swipers in Italy.
You don’t have to do anything to win them over—they’ll win you over instead.
Best match: Libra
Taurus: No games
When it comes to dating, Taurus knows exactly what they want.
This is evident in their high swipe rate and quick message responses. They’re precise and organized—it’s no surprise that most members of this sign list “engineer” as their occupation.
What you need to know about Taurus is that they’re very tenacious and enjoy life.
They often include both “food” and “drinks” in their bio, so a suggestion for future matches: be ready to eat and drink together.
Best match: Taurus
Gemini: If you can’t keep up with their pace, both on Tinder and in life, move on
Geminis put enthusiasm into everything life offers them, and their bios are full of emojis like 🍻, 🎶, and ✈.
So, if you choose to swipe right on a Gemini, you need to be ready for an adventure.
These “social animals” are always ready to party (which might explain why they’re the sign that lists “bartender” as their job more than anyone else).
But beware: though they’re very sociable and swipe easily, they’re hard to satisfy and get bored quickly.
Best match: Aquarius
Cancer: Be patient (a lot)
To catch the attention of the most empathetic sign, there’s one rule: be yourself, in a true and pure way.
This is what Cancer people say they’re looking for in their bios.
And if they don’t respond immediately, don’t worry: Cancer is among the slowest to reply.
Best match: Aquarius
Leo: Only if you’re okay with being with someone who thinks they’re a King (not just on Tinder)
Confident and proud of their stars, Leo people are very likely to reference their horoscope in their bios, making them the winners in the “horoscope addicted” category.
Speaking of being in first place, this characteristic isn’t just reflected in dating, but also in work: they’re the only ones who list “CEO” as their main job.
Best match: Aries
Virgo: Take it slow, or you’ll make them run away
This is a shy sign, one that doesn’t like exposing itself or talking about its stars in their bio.
If you want to win over a Virgo, try to get them to express themselves and their hardworking nature.
For those who are too expansive or love exploration, Virgos might not be your ideal match.
Best match: Scorpio
Libra: Be careful with your words
While other signs are inspired by the stars, when it comes to love, Libras measure every ounce of feeling with precision.
Pragmatic in life and love, Libras value balance, logic, and they’re also fitness enthusiasts—no surprise that their bios are full of emojis like 🏋.
They’re skilled in conversation and have no limits on their words, which might explain why most of them list “interpreter” and “translator” as their job.
Best match: Aries
Scorpio: Don’t expect real-time responses
Scorpio is a passionate sign, contrary to what its nature might suggest.
Matching with a Scorpio is a stroke of luck: they often identify as “chef” or “bartender,” so swipe right and your palate will thank you.
But be careful—while they start strong, they take their time replying. Be patient.
Best match: Virgo
Sagittarius: They’re not easily impressed
Sagittarians are among the least likely to swipe right, but once they do, there’s no turning back.
They don’t waste much time between the match and the first message, showing they’re not afraid to make the first move.
Best match: Capricorn
Capricorn: Get to the point and go straight to the meeting
Capricorns might be hard to charm on Tinder, but if you’re lucky enough to find one, they’re worth holding on to.
Very few members of this sign declare it in their bio, perhaps because they’re so ambitious and hardworking that they leave little time for swiping.
This is also evident in the fact that they have the least interaction, whether swiping left or right.
What should you do to get their attention? Maybe offer them a glass of wine—they seem to be big fans according to their bios.
Best match: Sagittarius
Aquarius: Embrace their passions (or leave them alone)
Aquarius is the sign of big dreams and great values.
When they’re not busy protesting about something, they’re cultivating their passions—no surprise they’re the only ones (or almost) to use ⚽ in their bio.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Best match: Sagittarius
Pisces: Let them dream
People born under the sign of Pisces are deeply focused on emotions, and their goal in life seems to be finding them, even if they’re not entirely sure what they want.
They’re emotional and intuitive and want others to know that the world inside their head is even more interesting than the one outside.
They’re not particularly fast in replying to messages, but perhaps it’s because they’re carefully choosing their words.
Best match: Aquarius
