One of the best ways to spice up your sex life is to try a new sex position. And while any position that's out of the ordinary will usually do the trick, you might as well use sex position astrology to try the one that's best aligned with your horoscope sign.
"Astrology reveals how we all have different personality traits based on the zodiac sign that we are born under," says Hollywood astrologer Nicolas Aujula. "That shapes our libido and what we like between the sheets. By understanding your needs, you can have an improved sex life and choose partners who match your individual appetite for sex."
Ahead, we've rounded up the best sex position for each of the 12 astrological signs. Try yours to have sex that's written in the stars.
The Best Sex Position for Capricorn: Wheelbarrow
Best LifeYour birthday: December 22 to January 20
Why it's the best sex position: "Capricorns are practical and consistent and exhibit an earthy powerful sex drive that needs regular sexual experiences to unwind," says Aujula. Ambitious and hardworking, they've got the stamina to orgasm again and again.
In the wheelbarrow position, the woman squeezes her legs around the man as he penetrates her from behind, which naturally appeals to a Capricorn's "love of a challenge in the bedroom."
The Best Sex Position for Aquarius: G-Whiz
Best LifeYour birthday: January 21 to February 18
Why it's the best sex position: "Aquarius people are free-spirited and require a lot of space to explore their sexuality," says Aujula. "Their sex drive is inventive and erratic, so expect to have new experiences that are really are out-of-the-box."
G-Whiz is an inventive take on the missionary position—as it involves the woman resting her calves on the man's shoulders—so it fulfills their need to get creative without going too crazy. Since "sex is an experiment of pleasure rather than an emotional experience" for this zodiac sign, it's also perfect because it's a great way to stimulate a woman's G-spot.
The Best Sex Position for Pisces: Spooning
Best LifeYour birthday: February 19 to March 20
Why it's the best sex position: Dreamy and sensitive, a Pisces' sex drive depends on how emotionally connected they feel to their partner. "Sex with a receptive Pisces can be a true bonding experience, as they love to caress and share sweet words," says Aujula. The spooning pose allows them to get "close and intimate in a gentle and romantic way that doesn't require much effort."
The Best Sex Position for Aries: Reverse Cowgirl
Best LifeYour birthday: March 21 to April 20
Why it's the best sex position: "Aries are fiery and hot-blooded between the sheets," says Aujula. All the "fun for them is in the pursuit" and all the "pleasure is in the conquest." Reverse cowgirl enables them to have all the control over their partner, which is perfect for "the ultimate seducer." But be forewarned that all that energy means they may be "quick to climax, so sex can be brief but intense."
The Best Sex Position for Taurus: Missionary
Best LifeYour birthday: April 21 to May 21
Why it's the best sex position: People act like this is the most boring sex position, but because it lets you kiss and cuddle with your partner during sex, it's perfect for this zodiac sign. "Taurus is passionate and affectionate, so, if you like sensuality, you're in for a treat," says Aujula. And what they lack in spontaneity, they make up for with plenty of foreplay.
The Best Sex Position for Gemini: Pinball Wizard
Best LifeYour birthday: May 22 to June 21
Why it's the best sex position: "Gemini are curious, so they're always willing to try new things and experiment sexually," Aujula said. With Pinball Wizard, the woman gets into a partial bridge pose and the man penetrates her while holding her up by her thighs. Given how aroused they are by their own imagination, just thinking about this adventurous sex position is likely to turn them on.
The Best Sex Position for Cancer: Sitting-up Cowgirl
Best LifeYour birthday: June 22 to July 22
Why it's the best sex position: Cancer people are caring and sensitive and guided more by their emotions than pure primal urges. "For them, sex needs to be comforting and nurturing," says Aujula. "They are the most romantic lover, and no one will hold you as tight and make you feel secure whilst having sex." With this position, they can embrace you with a tenderness that makes you feel truly cared for and loved.
The Best Sex Position for Leo: Doggy Style
Best LifeYour birthday: July 23 to August 23
Why it's the best sex position: Passionate, bold, and playful, Leos have a "strong hunter instinct," so sex with them tends to be pretty animalistic, says Aujula. Doggy style enables them to satisfy their "primal instincts for wild sex" as well as their desire for control.
The Best Sex Position for Virgo: Standing Shower Sex
Best LifeYour birthday: August 24 to September 22
Why it's the best sex position: A Virgo's sex drive tends to be erratic, and they prefer to let their partner be in charge in the bedroom. "Sex is a place where Virgos can let their hair down," but their perfectionist natures "mean that they will do their utmost to be the best lover," says Aujula. Face-to-face shower sex allows them to realize your fantasies in an environment that is "neat and, more importantly, clean."
The Best Sex Position for Libra: Erotic V
Best LifeYour birthday: September 23 to October 23
Why it's the best sex position: Libras love beauty and harmony, so sex is all about creating an aesthetically pleasing experience that achieves a sense of balance. But they also have a "wild imagination, so they love to play erotic games and indulge in sexual pleasure," says Aujula. In this face-to-face Kama Sutra position—in which the women sits on a sturdy table and places her legs on the man's shoulders in the shape of a V—both criteria are fulfilled.
The Best Sex Position for Scorpio: Standing 69
Best LifeYour birthday: October 24 to November 22
Why it's the best sex position: Scorpios are "deeply passionate" and "exude strong sexual energy," so, naturally, they like to "push boundaries and take you to new heights." With this complex pose, they can assume full control, show off their skills, and embody their role as the "master seducer of the zodiac" that lifts you up to "orgasmic heaven," says Aujula.
The Best Sex Position for Sagittarius: Raised Doggy
Best LifeYour birthday: November 23 to December 21
Why it's the best sex position: Raised doggy is a variation on regular doggy style, in which the woman raises her hips and rests her head and forearms on the bed or ground, allowing for even deeper penetration. The libido of a Saggitarius tends to be "off the charts," and they approach sex as a "physical outlet that they treat like an athlete," says Aujula.
This adventurous sex position, therefore, enables them to enjoy the "speed and physical sexual endurance" required to maintain the pose. And, as incorrigible thrill-seekers, don't be surprised if they suggest taking the action outside!
