While no zodiac sign is destined to divorce, some signs are more likely to walk away when things go south — and others are more likely to hold on, even in tough times. Astrology can offer insight into which signs are prone to split and why. Let’s explore the signs most (and least) likely to divorce — and what causes it.
Most Likely to Divorce
1. Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Why: Gemini thrives on variety, communication, and mental stimulation. When a relationship becomes stagnant or emotionally heavy, they may seek freedom or new experiences elsewhere. Their restless nature can make commitment difficult unless they feel intellectually and emotionally engaged.
2. Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Why: Sagittarians are independent spirits who value freedom and growth above all. If a relationship starts to feel restrictive or overly emotional, they may opt out rather than stay stuck. They need a partner who supports their adventures — not one who tries to hold them back.
3. Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Why: Aries is impulsive and driven by passion. They dive headfirst into relationships, but if the excitement fades or conflict becomes too frequent, they may decide to move on quickly. They don’t like feeling trapped or emotionally burdened.
4. Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Why: Aquarians are emotionally detached and value intellectual connection more than deep emotional intimacy. If a relationship becomes too emotionally intense or conventional, Aquarius may walk away to preserve their individuality.
5. Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Why: This might be surprising, since Libras are relationship-oriented. But they crave balance, beauty, and fairness — and if they’re in a relationship filled with drama, disrespect, or inequality, they’ll leave to restore peace. Plus, they’re not afraid to start fresh if it means finding harmony again.
Least Likely to Divorce
1. Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Why: Taurus is fiercely loyal and values long-term stability. They’ll do everything they can to avoid divorce, even staying in relationships longer than they should. They resist change, so leaving is always a last resort.
2. Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Why: Cancers are deeply emotional and family-oriented. They cherish home, loyalty, and emotional security. They’ll fight to keep the relationship intact unless there’s betrayal or abuse, often forgiving more than they should.
3. Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Why: Capricorns are responsible and committed. They don’t take marriage lightly, and will work hard to fix things before considering divorce. They value tradition and long-term success, even in love.
4. Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Why: Virgos are problem-solvers. They’ll analyze what went wrong and try to fix it before throwing in the towel. While they have high standards, they’re not quick to give up — especially if they see potential.
5. Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Why: Scorpios love deeply and intensely. When they commit, it’s all or nothing. They’ll endure emotional storms for someone they love — but if betrayed, they’ll end it with finality. Loyalty is everything.
Middle of the Road: Pisces & Leo
-
Pisces may stay in toxic relationships too long out of hope and love, but they can also leave if they feel emotionally abandoned.
-
Leo might try to hold on for pride and loyalty, but they’ll move on to protect their self-worth if they’re not appreciated or respected.
Astrology doesn’t seal your fate — but it can explain patterns in how we love, fight, and sometimes, leave. Knowing what your sign values in relationships can help you build something lasting — or recognize when it’s time to let go.
