How To Know If He's Getting Ready To Propose, According To His Zodiac Sign
It's a big step and the commitment of a lifetime.
Proposals are scary all around, but if you look to astrology for insight on how he deals with the pressure of marriage, you can find out if he's really ready to commit.
Every time I see a proposal on Instagram, I cry tears of joy on the inside because I can’t handle how sweet and special engagements are these days. They truly are more elaborate than ever before, just like promposals, but rather than asking someone to prom, you are asking him or her to spend the rest of their life with you.
All in all, proposals are a BIG deal. Especially in today’s society of social media overload, where everyone is in each other's business and you feel like you have to make such a grand gesture.
But have you ever wondered how your boyfriend will propose or when he will do it?
I’ve always wondered if my significant other will make it a super elaborate surprise or if I will know it's coming. Because after all, you are either someone who really likes surprises or really HATES them.
And if you are someone that likes to know what is going on, then a surprise proposal will NOT be a great choice for you.
But the only way to know if he is going to get down on one knee is to know HIM. Yeah, girl, it’s time to be your own personal investigator and get down to business about your engagement.
If you want to know if he’s taking the plunge, you have to ask the tough questions and pry when he’s not budging AT ALL.

This is a daunting task for someone who is about to be proposed to and all I have to say is be careful. Stay sneaky, but also don’t step on his toes too many times, that could be catastrophic.
You don't want to accidentally ruin something special he's been planning for a long time just because you were curious.
And another way to help you in your sleuthing is to know his zodiac sign top to bottom. That’s right, I am suggesting that you let astrology tell you if your man is about to pop the question.
Horoscopes are a great way to understand someone deeper and more intimately, and in your case, determine if his actions are leading to a proposal.
Again, good luck. I hope this evaluation of the male zodiac signs helps you figure out if he’s ready to propose or not.
1.Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You’ll know when he is ready to pop the question when he seems more impatient than usual. As an Aries, he is always extremely impatient, but this time around he’ll be distraught about something he can’t tell you about.
He may even snap at you during the weeks leading up to the big event. Don’t worry, he’s SUPER nervous and just needs some time get his head in the game.
Let him cool off instead of instigating a fight because chances are, he's got something important on his mind.

2.Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
When he’s ready to take the plunge and ask for your hand in marriage, he’ll be SUPER touchy. Your Taurus guy needs to hold you close at all times in general, but when he’s feeling nervous about the proposal, this intensifies.
Don’t shrug it off, if you are a sign that does that, because he’s validating his decision with touch. Touching you is his way of reminding himself that you are super important to him and that he wants to spend his life with you.
He’s stressing, but just know it’ll all be OK in the end.

5.Leo (July 23 - August 22)
It’s hard to tell when Leo will propose. He is naturally self-confident so this whole proposal thing doesn’t really phase him. He might even be the type of guy to play it totally cool that you'll NEVER be able to predict when he's going to pop the question.
But that doesn't mean he's going to half-ass his proposal. In fact, you should brace yourself for candles, an expensive, dinner, and the works. Honestly, he kind of lives for this type of exposure.
The drama and the romance get him excited and it’s likely he’ll have staged photographers to catch every beautiful moment.
