The way we transmit love; gestures, whispers, gifts, vary widely, yet fewer folks realize that what feels warm to one sign can feel lukewarm to another. While some absorb validation through praise, others need touch, tasks, or layered bits of time. The zodiac illuminates these preferences by mapping how the planets and stars tilt the heart’s wiring.

Show loyalty through small but meaningful gestures.
How to love them: Love them by leaving voice memos of the weirdest article you read, by asking them a new question each evening, and by never letting the conversation turn into a cycle of comfortable yet empty chats.
