iStockGemini is represented by the twins, so they’re known for their duality. And it’s this trait that contributes to their humble nature.
“Always ready to see both sides of a situation, they recognize that everyone has something valuable to teach them,” says Raquel Rodriguez, astrologer and founder of Your Zodiac.
These air signs have a lot of knowledge, but it’s their open-mindedness and willingness to learn that keeps them grounded around others.

ShutterstockCancer finds fulfillment in being there for other people. They nurture the ones they love to no end and feel more pride for everyone else’s successes than they do for themselves.
“They are natural empaths soaking up everyone’s emotions,” says Tara Bennet, astrologer and spiritual coach at Mediumchat.
However, sometimes they may take it too far and completely ignore their own accomplishments.

They don’t just seek balance, they crave it—which is why you’ll never find them showing off or doing anything that could make others upset or uncomfortable.
Libras almost always put other people’s needs before theirs, and they are well aware that everyone brings a variety of strengths and weaknesses to the table.

“Their strong sense of duty and respect for the rules might seem rigid to some, but it's underpinned by a profound humility,” says Rodriguez. "They take nothing for granted and value the wisdom of those who have gone before them."
They don't take the easy way out of things, and they approach each task in their life with care and respect.
2 | Virgo
ShutterstockVirgos have a hard time admitting when they’re wrong, but they will take the time to learn and grow if they make a mistake.
But more importantly, they never let their ego get in the way of achieving something. “They’re genuinely modest, preferring to give kudos to others rather than take a win for themselves, says Bennet.
These humble characteristics extend to all aspects of their lives, from the way they dress to how they act in social settings. Bennet says they have an understated elegance that’s reflected through their mannerisms.
