The Quality You Value MOST, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Sex is a very necessary component to our health and our lives, but is there something that you need more than sex; something that is the foundation for all your relationships and everything that you care about?

We all have different values, things that we search for in others, and qualities that we need for our own survival.

For many of us it’s trust, and without it, we can never truly share a life with that person. For others, it’s independence, the ability to do what you want without having to get permission or approval from someone else.

Many of the qualities that we treasure the most, we have ourselves. The traits that we hold in high esteem are often reflected on us. If you weren’t trustworthy, would you seek it out in others? Possibly, but it might be a different characteristic that you were drawn to.

Sometimes the values we have are instilled in us from our parents as we inherit many of the same values, morals, and opinions that they have. Think of how many people are the same political party as their parents or go to the same church.

Just because you value honesty above compassion doesn’t mean you can’t still be a compassionate person or admire that quality in others. It just means that as you live your life, you’d rather be truthful than spare someone’s feelings. It’s just how you’re wired.

Our values are as unique to us as our personalities are, and we don’t just have one quality that defines us but a whole variety. Astrology and the signs that we’re born under help to shape our personalities and our value systems as some characteristics go hand in hand with each sign.

Here’s the quality you value the most, based on your zodiac sign.

ARIES: Boldness

You value your ability to put yourself out there, to take chances, and to put yourself into the game. You're not a shrinking violet and you act, sometimes too quickly and without thought. You may be thought of as impulsive and a bit of a daredevil but you love that about yourself. You know that it's your fearlessness and courage that have helped to make you the success you are and you hope that you'll stay this way.

TAURUS: Trustworthiness

You're extremely reliable and people depend on you. You wish that other people were as trustworthy, loyal, and down to earth as you are, and then you wouldn't have to be so guarded of your emotions. You would never be unfaithful and that's what you need in a partner — someone who'd never cheat and whose promises mean something. You aren't asking for anything that you're not willing to give to the right person.

GEMINI: Intelligence

You're super-smart and you know it. Your intelligence helps define who you are and it's something that you seek out in others. When you're as intelligent as you are, you're also creative, funny, and innovative as all those qualities are offshoots of intelligence. If you couldn't be with someone who wasn't smart and couldn't carry a conversation, you'd probably be bored out of your skull.
