5 Restless Zodiac Signs Who Are Happiest When They're On The Move
Change is their happy place.
getty Is staying in one place or doing the same thing day after day the definition of death for you? Are you one of the restless zodiac signs who thrives on new experiences, ideas, dreams, people, places, and even horoscopes?
Being someone who is restless has a lot to do with astrology. Some zodiac signs have all the qualities that nurture that kind of restless nature. They’re more interested in the journey than the destination, and they’re at their happiest when they’re changing and moving.
Restlessness isn’t always about traveling; it can also be about making new friends all the time, changing jobs, starting new projects, or constantly putting their focus in multiple places. People who are restless don’t like to be locked down or have a strict plan. They need to be able to follow wherever their heart takes them. They’re open to taking a new road, going in a different direction from the pack, and trusting their instincts.
People who are restless are deep thinkers. They’re creative, think outside the box, and know that they’ll never discover all the world has to offer, but that doesn't mean they’ll give up trying. They’re not interested nor can they handle routine. They don’t follow schedules or other people’s agendas if they can help it; they want to be free to do their own thing.
1. AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius individuals are constantly coming up with new ideas and new ways of doing things. They tend to have multiple projects going at one time. Aquarius have a deep-seated knowledge that they're special and they don't like to be held down by rules and convention.
If left to do their own thing, not only will Aquarius benefit, but so will the world. If an Aquarius isn't allowed to roam, change and grow, they become stagnant and their creativity will not grow. Aquarians need to break up their routine and see something new or they won't thrive.
2. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Meeting new people is one of the things that keeps Sagittarians moving — they need to new faces, new ideas, and new customs. There is no such thing as a stranger to Sagittarius, they're just someone they haven't met.
Whether Sagittarius is hanging out with a new friend or traveling with them, they will be learning something. However, this not to say that Sagittarians don't have old friends or friends for a long time — they do, they just need an infusion of someone new on a regular basis.
3. GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Geminis are deep thinkers and they think a lot about their lives. They tend not to do things because other people do them; they don't have a need to blend in or follow along. Geminis see the beauty in life and it's that attitude that gives them such a hunger for life.
They don't want to miss anything and if that makes it hard for them to concentrate or be stuck behind a desk, Gemini is okay with that. At the end of their life, they hope to look back at a long list of the experiences and relationships that they had, not a bunch of obsolete possessions.
4. ARIES (March 21 - April 19)
Aries individuals tend to be both restless spirits and adventurers. They thrive on new experiences and challenges. Every day can be an adventure even if you don't leave the city you live in.
Aries know how to find the hidden side to every town and they're able to make find the positives, even when they're not visibly apparent. Many Aries have a short attention span and they need a lot of stimuli to not get bored. But luckily, they're easily intrigued.
5. LEO (July 23 - August 22)
Leo individuals aren't the type of people who are satisfied with very little — they tend to aim high. Their life is filled with wonder and excitement, mostly because they're not afraid to try new things. Leos want to keep expanding their life and their worldview with new experiences, new people, and new ideas.
Leos may not change locations as often as other restless spirits, but their minds are constantly thinking of new things and ways to improve life — for themselves, and for everybody.
