Skeptical Zodiac sign
Having a skeptical attitude has its benefits sometimes. People who tend to believe everything and everyone are highly susceptible to deception. Skeptical people always want to get a second look just to be sure. They have a curious mind and they tend to ask questions until they get a logical answer that puts their mind at rest.
How skeptical or gullible you are has something to do with your zodiac sign. In this article, we’ll rank the different zodiac signs based on how skeptical they tend to be.

5. Gemini

7. Taurus
8. Leo
9. Aquarius

1. Libra
Libras genuinely think life is a bed of roses and they hold on firmly to this reality. In their world, everyone can be happy. They want to make everyone their friends which is why they find it difficult to treat others with skepticism-after all, you can’t be friends with someone you don’t trust. Libras don’t like conflict. So even when they feel something might be off, they’re likely to give the person the benefit of the doubt and avoid confrontation entirely.
2. Pisces
Emotionally sensitive Pisces is easily swayed by people’s feelings. They feel the pain of others and empathize with them quite easily. Pisces people are the type to look for excuses for others even when they’re clearly wrong. They’d rather put their trust in someone and risk being disappointed than cancel the person entirely.
3. Cancer
Another trusting water sign, Cancer people wear their hearts on their sleeves. Their emotional sensitivity makes Cancerians naive sometimes. They believe in the inherent goodness of others even though this is not always the reality. They open their hearts readily to others and this is why they get hurt easily.
4. Sagittarius
The Sag’s perpetually optimistic nature is the major reason why they’re never skeptical. While they know people can sometimes disappoint you, they still prefer to pay attention to the positive instead of seeing the negative. Even when meeting new people, a Sagittarian will simply hope for the best. This allows them to mix with different types of people and enjoy different experiences.
5. Gemini
The duality of Gemini’s personality often influences how they relate with people. When it comes to trust, things can go either way with the Gemini. They’re careful to consider all the possibilities. At the same time, their proclivity to throw caution to the wind means they often end up ignoring the signs. Geminis are skeptical enough to see the negative in people. However, they also tend to give them a second chance at redemption instead of just pushing them away.
6. Aries
Aries people enjoy living at the edge of danger. This means they’ll most likely to dive into relationships headfirst or make decisions even before considering the full implications. Their problem is not a lack of skepticism, they’re just too blind to the dangers of their brash decisions. However, Arians also trust their guts a lot. If they feel something is off about someone or something, they’ll most likely stay away.
7. Taurus
The bull is a well-grounded personality which means they love to be sure of whatever decision they’re making. This is a good thing since they hardly ever turn back once they have their minds set on anything. A Taurus person will do thorough research about anything new before making their final decision. Once they do, it’ll be difficult to get them to doubt their decision.
8. Leo
Leos are intentional about the cycle of friends they keep. Although they’re quite friendly and open to others, they take their time to screen people. This ensures that they always have the best people in their life. They’ll treat any new person with some level of skepticism before letting them into their life.
9. Aquarius
No matter how hard they try, Aquarians simply have a hard time trusting people. Although they’re smart enough to know that there are good people in this world, they just find it difficult to embrace people upfront. Most people misunderstand this as pride or unfriendliness. But this isn’t the case, Aquarians just have a hard time trusting people and it’ll take a lot of effort to get them to see things otherwise.
10. Capricorn
The problem with Capricorns is that they’re too pessimistic to think other people can be dependable. The only person a Capricorn truly trusts is themselves. If they need to get something done, they’ll rather handle it on their own instead of entrusting that responsibility to someone else. That’s not to say they cannot trust others at all. It’ll just take more time and effort to get to that stage with anyone.
11. Virgo
Some level of skepticism is expected from perfectionist Virgo. They try to plan for everything. This includes bracing themselves up to disappointment from other people. Virgos are always trying to judge other people’s intentions. This makes it easier for them to spot when something is off. Virgos are also known to be very critical. They set a high bar for everyone including themselves.
12. Scorpio
Scorpio people are always conscious of the potential hurt and manipulation that can come from trusting people blindly. This is why they’re always on guard around others. It’s not that they don’t want to trust anyone, they just think it’s safer to be skeptical because there’s no telling what someone might do to them. This is why they tend to act distant from everyone instead of exposing their vulnerabilities.
Conclusion
A healthy dose of skepticism is good for everyone. People will always try to manipulate and deceive you. If you’re too trusting, it’ll be easy to fall for their deception and get carried away by the things they say instead of seeing them for who they really are. Of course, being overly suspicious of people also impacts relationships negatively. Maintaining a balance is recommended regardless of where your zodiac sign falls.
