7 Zodiac Signs That Will Always Have Your Back, According To Astrologers

Being the first among the zodiac, Aries has a reputation for having a very "me first" attitude. But according to McGill, Aries will always have your back because they symbolize courage. "The Aries views life as a hero’s journey," she says. "It's often on this journey that Aries finds themselves in a situation that requires them to summon up bravery, strength and fortitude to stand up for what is right." Aries-born people feel like it's their "duty" to be bold and have your back, even if they're the only one to do it. For them, it's the principle that matters.

Tauruses are known for being fiercely loyal and super reliable. If you're lucky enough to be in a close relationship with a Taurus, this is the person that will always be there for you for better or worse. "Their commitment is not quickly given but is never-ending once achieved," McGill says. "Though it takes a lot to get the bull moving, provoke them enough and they will mow you down."

"When you're in trouble, your first call should be to a Cancer," astrologer Elisa Robyn, PhD, tells Bustle. They're emotional and empathetic creatures. So if you need someone to share your feelings with, a Cancer is it. Their home is usually warm and inviting. It can make you feel immediately safe and at ease. According to Robyn, they will hold you until you can get back on your own two feet. They're loyal to a fault and always seem to know just what their loved ones need.

"If you need someone to help you talk out your pain and sadness, and perhaps plot against the people who hurt you, call your Virgo friends," Robyn says. Virgos are very grounded in nature and will be your rock if you need them. They respect and value the people closest to them, and hold on to everyone they've ever loved in their lives. Since they're also very practical, they'll also be there to help you disset your problem, plan your next steps, and help you move on.

As an Air sign, they can be seen as distant and a bit too flexible for some. Libras may not be the most decisive people among the zodiac, but according to Robyn, Libras will never let a friend down. "If you call in the middle of the night they will answer and help you calm down and focus on what you need," she says. "They stay calm and value being a friend when needed." They can also help you to see both the good and bad of every situation.

"Scorpio will have your back, because Scorpio values loyalty above all else," McGill says. "Bonds made with Scorpio people run deep as an iceberg." Like their opposite sign, Taurus, Scorpios don't get angry very often. They may be intense, but they also tend to stay very even-tempered. If necessary, however, they will not hesitate to act. According to McGill, "It must have been a Scorpio who said, 'Revenge is a dish best served cold.'" Because if you hurt someone they love, "their stinger will prepare to strike."

Like the other Water signs, Pisces are sensitive and emotional. They're known for being very forgiving, kind, patient, and understanding. "If they love you, they will stand beside you and help you through any painful situation," Robyn says. "They will always be on your side in a fight, and might try to drag you away so that you are safe."

The great thing about the zodiac is each sign is so different. Even if you're dealing with a sign that isn't naturally comforting, they might always know how to bring a smile to your face. Again, every sign will have your back in some way. You just have to recognize what their strengths are.
