When something big happens, they're the first person you call.
By Christine Schoenwald — Written on Dec 04, 2019
We all need a hype person in our lives — someone to encourage us in good times and in bad. A hype person doesn’t just praise you; they support you and lift you up when needed.
Sometimes the person that’s the hardest on us is ourselves, so we need another person to counterbalance our critical inner voice with positivity. That's why using astrology as a guide is the best way to determine the zodiac signs who make the best hype people.
A hype person gives us that pep talk we need to take risks, act with confidence, and keep moving forward towards our goals. They are there to lift us when we’re down, push us when we need a gentle nudge, and inspire us to do and be better. They energize us, redirect our focus, but mainly they’re there out of love.
1. GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
When you have a Gemini rooting for you, you'll know it. They're very enthusiastic, supportive, and smart. They come up with creative ways of letting you know they're there for you.
If you're feeling less than confident about your abilities, Geminis will not only give you a hype talk, they'll compliment you and build you up for others. They are your hype person at work, at home, and everywhere else.
2. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarians are known for their big hearts, and when they're your hype person, they're all in. Sagittarians are naturally very upbeat and optimistic, so if they're your hype person, they're going to make sure everyone knows how talented and great you are.
Sagittarius is your #1 fan, and they want everybody to see how amazing you are. They are honest, and what they say comes from a place of love and support.
3. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Speaking of positive attitudes, is there anyone more positive than an Aries? If Aries is hyped about you, they're passionate about wanting the world to know how cool, talented, and incredible you are.
Aries is going to go out on a limb for you when other people would stand back. They're enthusiastic, supportive, and the best part is that if they're your hype person, they truly believe everything they say about you.
4. LEO (July 23 - August 22)
A Leo can be a hype person to a stranger — that's how much influence they have on others. Leos are charismatic, captivating, and energetic. They lead by example and can be very inspiring with their words and actions.
Leo is the podcaster you listen to for encouragement, or the writer that inspires you to be better. They may not know you personally, but they make you feel as if you can do anything.
5. LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
When you need advice, encouragement, or a pep talk, who do you find yourself going to again and again? Libra, of course. Libra is always there to help you focus and get back on your path. You know that Libra supports your dreams and believes in you 100 percent.
They can give you a new perspective to help you to realize the gifts you already have, and support you whether you're killing it or feeling like you've failed. Libra encourages you whenever you need it.
