Know the preferences of various zodiac signs. Find out which one makes the best shopping partner, and which one of them would make the best gym-buddy! Also in store are the preferences of various zodiac signs’ natives in terms of sports and health arena.

ARIES
Initiating any activity comes naturally to these initiators of the zodiac, but the real challenge for them lies in sustaining interest once the initial rush is over. Energy and enthusiasm are a given, but so are impatience and wavering attention, when it comes to Rams. An Aries loves to be pronounced as a fitness freak. No wonder they love to indulge in myriad sporting and physical exercise activities. Aries exhibit similar tastes, when it comes to other things like clothes, accessories, jewels and footwear. They will always point at the most in-style and chic jewellery and apparels. So, it’s a wise idea to take them as shopping companions – they won’t be imposing, but will lend you excellent advice about latest places to shop and trendiest stuff to buy.

TAURUS
Headstrong and stable Bulls are practical beings, and thus appreciate the importance of physical fitness and regular exercise. But, then they may find it difficult to implement this understanding, given their proclivity for many other activities and pastimes. Thus, a Taurus may find it hard to divide his/ her activity or reading time to get going on a treadmill. However, when it comes to sports and fun activities, they more than make it up for any lack of physical exercise.They may not always be, though, yet Taureans won’t prefer knowing that. In the jewellery department, understated yet classy stuff rules, and yes it will be expensive. Think diamonds and timelessly chic pieces! If going shopping, take along a Bull, if you are looking for something really different.

GEMINI
Wiggly and restless Geminis like sports and physical exercises, but not as much as partying and socialising. Jogging, spinning, dancing and fun-games top their list of ways to remain fit. However, most Twins will manage to have good fun even in a gymnasium. Ample socialising skills lend another excellent trait to Twins – their superior negotiation and bargaining skills. And, they are not the ones to join the ‘brandwagon’. No wonder, Geminis, especially women, make brilliant shopping companions for budget or street shopping trips.

CANCER
Drive to match their sensitivity is what is needed by Cancers, if they wish to achieve what they dream of! Chances of you finding them cribbing that their efforts are not showing desired results are high. Why? Irregularity and lack of passion, maybe! They like to shop for precious jewellery, and their collectibles resemble the treasures of the seas – pearls, precious stones rule. Not given to outward appearances, a Crab may not worry much about acquiring swanky cars or vehicles, though. Rather, they would be more than happy driving their cherished old bike or car to which they will be emotionally attached.

LEO
To channelise their vast energy and enthusiasm in the right way, Lions prefer activities that’ll let them excel physically. Conventional ways of burning calories won’t find much preference here, though. Thus, contemporary and ‘different’ routines like kick-boxing, aqua-aerobics, ballroom dancing or hot yoga will suit more to their idea of getting and remaining in shape. When it comes to sports, Lions again have aristocratic tastes. Unlike the former zodiac sign Cancer, the Lions are all for outward appearances. Given to a certain pomposity, Leos like to make bold, brazen style statements, and that applies to their choice of clothes, vehicles and jewellery.

VIRGO
Loyal and sincere, Virgins are quite regular at sweating it out. Being one of the most fitness conscious zodiac signs, their idea of staying fit includes aerobics, yoga, jogging or dancing. They are all about the ‘au natural’ look and feel.Perfectionists to the core, Virgos are meticulous even when it comes to shopping. No wonder, they have a special preference for precious-metal jewellery and precious stones. For imitation pieces, they go for semi-precious stones, chunky, psychedelic or ethnic look that’ll make them stand out. As for the vehicles, Virgins have a bizarre choice, especially if they can’t afford an expensive model they fancy. They will prefer to buy a remodelled version than use a run-of-the-mill budget car/ bike.

LIBRA
Balance and poise – these are the two mantras around which a Libra’s life and preferences revolve. They seek balance in all aspects of their life, and health and physical fitness are no different. Meditation, yoga, other calming and balancing forms of exercise appeal to them. So, it’s not only about burning calories, but also about ‘lifting spirits and feeling great’. Suave, stylish and often well-turned out Libra natives, surprisingly, do not like to shop. A Libra male is most likely to despise his wife’s/ girlfriend’s shopping expeditions. Female Libra, on the other hand, may love to buy expensive and designer stuff, but more so for her intimate relations than her own self. However, you can consult them for tips on latest fashion and trends, and they shall happily oblige.

SCORPIO
Intensely competitive and passionate in whatever they do, Scorpio natives tend to look for the ways to enhance their physical prowess and mental strength. Besides, anything that intrigues and energizes them is also good enough to keep them going. Thus, when it’s about physical training, these aspects act as the guiding force. Attractive and often quite poised, Scorpios have a distinct and definitive taste in clothes. They have set choices, and don’t like anyone giving them any advice on it. The wardrobe of a Scorpio woman is usually very tasteful, and may even be a cause of envy for many. Most Scorpios have an exquisite choice in both clothes and accessories, and many of them may be the proud owners of some of the finest and rarest jewellery pieces and/ or precious stones.

SAGITTARIUS
A powerhouse of energy, an Archer displays great strength and stamina, and tends to take his/ her workout routine a tad too seriously. They have the knack of getting down to the slightest of the details, and will meticulously plan each of their moves. Adventurous and always ready to experiment, Archers, however, fail when they overdo this very bit. They flourish the most in a competitive scenario where they get ample chances to boast and make show of their abilities.If the ‘best-dressed’ Sun sign award was to be declared, a Sagittarius native would win hands down! The Archers have a knack to pick up just the ‘right’ objects at the ‘right’ time. An Archer woman is considered to be street-smart, as she would exactly know what to and from where to buy, and that includes jewellery.

CAPRICORN
No one appreciates the benefits and rewards of an exercise and fitness program more than a dedicated Goat. Capable of first sweating it out on a treadmill before heading for a tango/ jazz session, Capricorn natives will be able to strike a balance between myriad means to keep fit, given they gel with his/ her current set of responsibilities. Weights, cardio, yoga, aerobics or walking in a nearby park – all may be favoured – they just have to fall in line with the Goat’s busy work-schedule. Practical and prudent, Goats, often, don’t fall in the category of impulsive shoppers. Both male and female Goats are patient shopping companions, and when in mood, they themselves don’t mind spending hours or even days hunting for just the ‘right’ thing.

AQUARIUS
Ironically stubborn yet pliable, Aquarius natives are, often, careful about their appearance. They like to keep themselves toned and agile, and that’s quite possible given their natural charm and poise. However, what they really need is some more discipline and dedication towards their fitness goals. Add some mental/ intellectual stimulation to their fitness routine, and see them sticking to it like bees to honey! Charity walks, marathons and team sports are preferred, and so are adventurous sports like snowboarding, wind surfing, sky diving or bungee jumping.Aquarius is, by far, the best Sun sign to shop with. Not short on ideas and opinions, Water-Bearers like to go the whole hog, whenever they decide to shop! Their distinct style of dressing rather, abstract and off beat shall also give you many shopping ideas.

PISCES
Most Fish have a tendency to be quite laid-back, so they need a ‘real’ push to ‘exercise’. However, since most of them are quite appearance-conscious, they would eventually do something or other for their fitness. Fascinated by the waves of sparkling water, Pisces natives wish to be close to water bodies for long hours. And, if that water-body is a sea, nothing like it!When it comes to shopping, impulsive is the word that best describes a Pisces native. They love to shop and gift, and are often quick to pick up items that appeal to their eyes. Nothing run-of-the-mill would be allowed to enter a Pisces domain, though. They are quite selective that way, and prefer to collect exquisite objects. Like, if it’s about jewellery, gold rules all the way! Whether it’s a trinket or a finely carved neck-piece, the gleam of gold with, maybe, a touch of their favourite blue precious stones, will be evident!
