There may be a lot of stereotypes about the misunderstood sign of Scorpio, but the one about how sexual they are has its roots in the truth, according to Kovach. Which zodiac signs are the most sexual and sexually dominant?


And the same goes for having your Mars located in the eighth house of intimacy, which likely means “you have a higher sex drive or a lust, passionate desire for sex, and the potential for dominant behavior in bed,” says relationship astrologer Anna Kovach. That’s why looking at the sign that Mars occupies in your chart can also lend some insight into the sex positions and acts you enjoy.įor instance, having Mars in the deep and sensual sign of Scorpio could make you all the more likely to dominant in bed or to be a sex-initiator. “Mars is the planet of forward-focused passion and desire, and the things you instinctively go after,” says Weiss. Similar to Venus, Mars plays a role in how you act in the bedroom and in relationships-but in this case, it’s more about your animalistic impulses, or the kinds of sexual needs and desires you might experience if you could turn off the rational thinking part of your brain. So, if your Venus is in a fire sign like Sagittarius, but your sun is in a grounded Earth sign like Virgo, it’s still possible that your personality in sexual scenarios gets a tinge of that fiery Sagittarian energy, particularly when love is involved. In this case, the sign it’s in will more closely reflect the way you show and receive affection and love. “The sun embodies warmth and heat, and in that sense, it really is the beating heart of what you desire.”īecause Venus is the planet of love, romance, and receptivity, your Venus sign can also offer some deep insights into your sexual preferences, says Weiss. “Your sun sign is really helpful for deciphering your ‘desire matrix’ because it reflects your core instincts,” says Weiss.


Likely the sign you know best as your zodiac sign or star sign, and the one you’d read a horoscope for, your sun sign is most definitely linked with your sexual preferences, as the sign that primarily drives identity. What determines sex drive in astrology? Sun sign Caveat aside, she says there are certainly key facets of each zodiac sign (and how they show up in a person’s chart) that can influence the sex positions they most enjoy-and the sexual acts that’ll really get them going. “Each of our astrological charts has so much variety within it, and all of the zodiac signs can theoretically participate in any sex position,” she says. But that’s really just grazing the surface of sex-trology, says astrologer and sexologist Stefanie Iris Weiss, whose interests lie in the interplay of sexual proclivities and astrology.
