How do you like to get in the mood?
By Emily Ratay — Written on Dec 07, 2016
Sex without foreplay is like having a shot of tequila without salt and lime. It's good, but it isn't great. Foreplay is SO important (and I can't stress this enough) because it helps you both get into the mood much faster and it heightens arousal so that you can both enjoy steamy hot sex all night long.
Without foreplay, sex would just be ... meh.
The best part of foreplay is that there are so many different kinds that you and your partner can do without getting bored. Kissing, touching, toys: it ALL counts. And lucky for us, everyone's tastes vary.
You might be up for something along the lines of spanking with a leather paddle (hello, gift idea) or something on the gentler side like a sensual massage. Either way, foreplay acts should always make you feel good. The point is to get your engine revving, right?
Depending on your star sign, it might already be pretty obvious what your favorite kind of foreplay is, but if it isn't, don't worry; I got you covered.
Whether your zodiac sign likes stay on the safer side of foreplay acts or go all out with your partner, it's always fun to try something new in the bedroom. Not only will your significant other get a nice surprise, but you also just might find you like it a little freaky.
Keep an open mind when it comes to trying something new, especially when it comes to sex. Having a willing partner is also important because the two of you should always vibe together in the bedroom; it definitely makes for hotter sex.
And when you are ready to try something new AGAIN, you know where to find the best tips for the sexiest tricks to try with your guy in bed.
But don't worry, I won't spill your dirty secrets to him!
ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr 19)
Nothing says beings an Aries more than being in charge, whether you're in the streets OR the sheets. If he doesn't know already, you like reminding your guy that you're the boss, not him.
Giving or receiving, lap dances are sexy AF. That said, Aries will want to be the one doing the work to get her man hot before sex. Practice your moves at home or spring for some classes to perfect your technique; he'll thank you later for it.

TAURUS (Apr 20 - May 20)
Taurus is all above touching and caressing, so a sensual massage is perfect for you. Not only do you get to share some intimate time with your partner in bed, but you also get to turn an amazing massage into something very naughty.
Adding body oil, kisses, and small love bites only enhances the massage. You definitely don't have to be a pro to get your man hot, but asking him what he likes best will help you both get in the mood faster.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Communication is your middle name, Gemini, and you love taking that skill of yours straight to the bedroom. Nothing gets you hotter than showing your guy a good time and still getting to be all chatty.
Talk dirty with him in bed or on the way to your meeting place. Whether that means phone sex, sexting, whispering naughty things in his ear, or all of the above, he will be begging to rip your clothes off before you finish your next sentence. To stay sexy while you talk dirty, tell him exactly what you want and where; no need to beat around the bush.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
What's sexiest about you is the way you can be so persuasive; making everyone around you want to hang onto your every word. When you tell your partner to get naked and on their knees, they never disobey.
You are always up for getting imaginative in bed, too, so creating a scenario in which you have to punish your guy by spanking him is a great place to start. Make him tell you who's boss or try your new leather riding crop to make it even sexier.

LEO (July 23 - Aug 22)
Leo is ALL about drama, so it's no surprise that foreplay involving performance and getting naughty is right up your alley. Role-playing is perfect for you because you get to use your imagination to set the scene and then rip each other's clothes off.
Ask your man what his favorite fantasy is so that the two of you can recreate it in the bedroom. Add costumes, accents, and toys if you'd like, but always remember to stay in character; that's what makes it so hot! Roleplaying is also a great way to try out dominant and submissive roles for the first time, too.

VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sep 22)
You never forget the little things, Virgo, and that counts doubly in the bedroom. You're a tried and true girl and your foreplay reflects that.
Oral sex might sound simple, but with you, it's anything but. You know exactly what to do to make your guy scream your name and beg you not to stop. You take a classic foreplay move and turn it into something totally mind blowing. When it's your turn, you aren't afraid to tell him how you like it, giving him a chance to learn from the best.

You love sharing with your partner (yes, even spit), so anything that involves kissing is the perfect kind of foreplay for you. Whether you turn it into a game or go down the list of erogenous zones, you make kissing look crazy hot.
Use your tongue to trace all the way up and down his body, or your teeth to mark him with hickeys, and watch him totally fall in love with you. Keep the kisses coming once you finally get into it to show him how sexy kissing can be.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
Scorpio isn't shy about anything, least of all getting your man hot in public. You are a passionate person and when you want it, you want it now.
Public arousal is perfect for your sign because you get to take foreplay to a whole new level, as well as make him beg to take you home and ravish you. Your assertiveness is incredibly sexy and it usually gets you what you want... so you might as well look for a secluded place to get busy in public while you're at it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 19)
You are up for just about anything, and with such a curious mind, you've probably thought about ways to spice it up in the bedroom. Giving your man a strip tease will soon become his favorite kind of foreplay.
You can look for classes or teach yourself, and set rules so he knows you're in charge, not him. Keep eye contact throughout so he knows he's the one you want, and remember to wear sexy lingerie underneath your clothes so he gets an extra surprise when you finally bare it all.

CAPRICORN (Dec 20 - Jan 19)
You're always in control, Capricorn, so when it comes to sex, it's a good idea to let go for a bit. Being blindfolded is the perfect type of foreplay for you because you're no longer in control of anything... how sexy is that?
Just lie back, relax, and let your partner do all the work. Or better yet, stay in control by blindfolding your man and teasing him until he can't take it anymore. Try temperature play or bind his hands, too, for an intensified experience.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18)
Aquarius may be an independent person, but that doesn't mean you don't enjoy intimacy any less than sex. You are just as skilled going solo as you are with a partner, so incorporating your independent lifestyle into sex is just the kind of foreplay you need.
Mutual masturbation is insanely sexy because who doesn't love watching their guy get off?! Turn it into a game to see who folds first or work each other into a frenzy. Your man won't last long when he sees how sexy you look when you do it to yourself.

PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20)
Pisces' intuitive and emotional nature makes for an incredible night in bed. You love the intimate nature that comes with sex, and you try to incorporate sensuality into foreplay.
Adding edible body oil or foods into your warm-up will drive your man wild. Lick whipped cream off of each other's bodies or feed him honey off of your fingers for foreplay that is steamy hot, yet still romantic. It might get messy, but the best kind of sex is always a little bit messy, isn't it?
