Andromeda DavisHave you ever wondered how you’d fare on the reality show Survivor? We have insight into how each sign of the Zodiac thrives–or fails–in extreme situations. If you want to survive the apocalypse, here’s your best shot!
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Your strength is your literal strength, Aries. As a naturally athletic person, you have an edge on defense, offense–and, if necessary, running away. Start training with weapons or take up long-distance running now.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Taurus is a natural protector and nurturer. That big ol’ green thumb doesn’t hurt, either! Your best bet for surviving the apocalypse is to build an off-the-grid sanctuary where you can welcome other refugees. Research how to grow your own food and cook without electricity.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your role in the apocalypse is a strange one, Gemini. Since you have a near-photographic memory and a flair for the dramatic, you may find yourself as a walking, talking replacement for the internet. Memorize as many jokes, fun facts, and movie plots as you can while you have the chance.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
As an empathetic person, Cancer, this time will be harder on you than most. Channel your natural strengths as a caregiver into providing shelter for orphans, lost pets, and anyone else who can’t look after themselves. Brush up on your first-aid skills–you’ll need them.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
There’s only one place Leo wants to be, and that’s on top. Your innate leadership skills and dazzling charisma make people want to follow you. That can be a blessing or a curse, so make sure to use your power for good.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Virgo, we all know you already have a 22-point disaster plan and a packed bug-out bag in your car. You are always prepared, no matter the situation. That makes you one of the MVPs of the apocalypse, and you’ll have to decide whether to use your skills to help everyone else or just look out for number one.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Libra, this is your time to shine. As someone who is deeply in tune with justice and fairness, you will become the closest thing to a judge in your community after the apocalypse. People will come to you for advice and ask you to settle disputes. Are you up for the challenge?
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
In some ways, Scorpio, you welcome the apocalypse. You’ve always felt a little constrained by modern society’s rules. Now you can be the person you always secretly wanted to be–a modern-day Robin Hood, a Road Warrior, or the queen of your own domain.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Although your role in the aftermath isn’t glamorous, it’s absolutely essential. As a hard-working, naturally cheerful person, you are going to be everybody’s best friend. Just try not to wander off into a wasteland full of zombies, okay?
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
Capricorns like to have clear goals in mind. Without a plan, you feel more than a little lost. That’s why you’re going to want to rebuild society as quickly as possible. With a few improvements, of course. As the architect of a new utopia, you’ll create something bigger and better than what we left behind.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
Change scares most people, but you enjoy it. Aquarius is a forward-thinking visionary, and you can see that although the present moment might be tough, things are going to get better. People will seek your wisdom and advice, so be prepared to give it.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Pisces really don’t do well in chaos. You don’t like violence or disorder, and uncertainty gives you major anxiety. The good news is that, if you manage to find a group of people to help you survive, your brilliant mind will find creative solutions that no one else would think of.
