The 'Real Housewives' Show That Matches Your Sign

by Marenah Dobin

If you are a Real Housewives superfan, it can be tough to choose a favorite show in the franchise. Even deciding which show to watch first when you have multiple episodes recorded can be pretty difficult. So I have no idea how anyone who wants to get into Real Housewives can pick which city to start watching. Sure, it makes sense to just watch whichever shows are currently airing, but I feel like there can be a lot of pressure when deciding on a new show to watch. For that reason, I thought it would make sense to help you with which Real Housewives show to watch based on your zodiac sign.

I really do love all of the Real Housewives shows, so I recommend watching all of them, but most people probably have more of a life than I do and have to be more selective. Or maybe you are just trying to figure out which show is your favorite or which cast you identify with most — my Real Housewives zodiac guide will help with that too.

Most people look to their horoscope to figure out how to handle the professional, romantic, financial, and social aspects of their lives, so why not make a television watching decision based on your sign, too? Here are the Real Housewives shows that match up to your zodiac signs based on characteristics from Astrology-zodiac-signs.com.

If You're An Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)...

You would enjoy enjoy Real Housewives of Potomic. The typical Aquarius enjoys "fun with friends, helping others, fighting for causes, and intellectual conversation." The women on RHOP do not talk about anything frivolous. The plot lines consist of serious conversations about topics that include race relations, social etiquette, and marital dynamics. An Aquarius can be described as being "shy and quiet, but on the other hand they can be eccentric and energetic." This also applies to RHOP since the cast members are pretty calm when it comes to their arguments — especially in comparison to the crazy conflicts in the other Housewives cities — but they definitely have enough sass to throw some solid shade when they really need to.

If You're A Pisces (February 19 - March 20)...

Real Housewives of Dallas is a show that you would enjoy. The Pisces is all about giving back and helping your fellow humans, and since the RHOD ladies contribute to charity in pretty much every episode, this is a show that you would appreciate. One issue with Pisces is that they "sometimes can take the role of a martyr" to gain attention, which is something LeeAnne Locken has been accused of plenty of times in regard to her charity work. Pisces strongly dislike "being criticized" and too much focus on the past, which also applies to the RHOD ladies who want the focus to be on their current status in society instead.

If You're An Aries (March 21 - April 19)...

You'll probably enjoy watching Real Housewives of Orange County. People with the Aries sign "are always first in everything — from work to social gatherings," so it would make sense for them to enjoy the first show in the franchise. Plus, we all know how competitive the RHOC women are with just about everything from the size of their homes, to acting roles in random TV shows, to the products that they endorse. The typical Aries is "meant to emphasize the search for answers to personal and metaphysical questions," which definitely applies to the Brooks Ayers story line and its many ripple effects.

If You're A Taurus (April 20 - May 20)...

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is the show for you. The Taurus description really screams RHOBH: "They love everything that is good and beautiful, and they are often surrounded by material pleasures." That is the perfect description of this cast. They are always shopping, going on private jets, and Erika Jayne even has a glam squad on call at all times. A Taurus weakness is the ability to be "too fond of money and wealth," which is a descriptor that definitely applies to RHOBH. There has been plenty of controversy on this show (obviously), but for the most part these women are very composed in their demeanor, which is just so Taurus since people born under this sign can be described as "stable and conservative."

If You're A Gemini (May 21 - June 20)...

Real Housewives of Atlanta is a show that you would be into. The Gemini usually likes "music, books, and magazines." On that note, the ATL ladies are always hustling with new entertainment projects from exercise videos to music to TV shows to photo shoots. A Gemini can be described as "expressive and quick-witted," which is so RHOA since these ladies are the most outgoing of the franchise and come up with the best shade on the fly. Not only are Gemini a good time and love having fun, they can be "very serious, thoughtful, and restless," which definitely applies to the work hard/play hard ATL cast full of women who are constantly working on and promoting new projects.

If You're A Cancer (June 21 - July 22)...

Real Housewives of New Jersey is the series for you. The strengths of a Cancer are that they are "loyal and emotional," which are two characteristics that the RHONJ cast stress the importance of, constantly. Not only that, but Cancers are usually family-oriented, and anyone who has watched RHONJ knows that these women are very devoted to their homes and families. A Cancer enjoys "a good meal with friends," which is perfect since the New Jersey casts is all about a good home-cooked dinner. It can also be said that Cancers "dislike strangers," which can apply to the RHONJ cast since it is full of family members and people who have been friends for decades — no new friends here, at least for the most part. Even the somewhat negative characteristics of Cancers would make RHONJ a relatable show to watch since Cancers can manifest mood swings in "fits of rage" — table flip anyone? But to end this comparison on a good note, one of the greatest strengths of a Cancer is "persistent determination," which is so New Jersey. Nothing can keep these women down from prison stints to financial troubles to feuds within the cast.

If You're A Leo (July 23 - August 22)...

Real Housewives of New York City is the perfect fit for you to watch. The typical Leo enjoys "taking holidays, being admired, expensive things, and fun with friends," which describes the NYC Housewives perfectly. These women are barely in New York City since they are always taking vacations somewhere. There are a plethora of men who admire them, hence the numerous love triangles and squares on the show. And we all know how much they love to show off pretty much everything they buy. Just like most Leos, the NYC ladies "can achieve anything they want." A Leo strongly dislikes "not being treated like a king or queen," which is something that can be said of all the women who make up the RHONY cast. Case in point, an issue for Leos is "ignoring the problems and needs of others in order to fulfill their desires," which can apply to so many RHONY situations, like when Sonja Morgan upset Bethenny Frankel when she didn't consult her about starting an alcohol line or when Luann de Lesseps got engaged to a guy who dated Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan, but refused to acknowledge their previous interactions as anything significant.

If You're A Virgo (August 23 - September 22)...

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is the show that you would enjoy the most. Virgos are very "loyal and analytical" just like the RHOBH ladies. We all know how much Kyle Richards sticks by Lisa Vanderpump no matter what the ladies throw at her. This also applies to Erika Girardi's fierce loyalty to Yolanda Foster in regard to those annoying Munchausen accusations. And we all know how much the Beverly Hills girls just love to analyze every situation (to death). On a similar note, the Virgo "can be very critical and overly concerned," which reminds of how the RHOBH women take on each other's problems as if they were their own. The Virgo usually "prefers conservative and organized things" and this cast is arguably the most reserved one in the franchise.

If You're A Libra (September 23 - October 22)...

Real Housewives of Dallas would be a show that you'd like. The strengths of a Libra include being "diplomatic, gracious, and social." RHOD is all about the social occasions from parties to galas and the ladies are all about etiquette and decorum within those settings. Libras "like to do everything in pairs and not alone," which is a #TotalRHODMove. They each have a partner in crime who is relentlessly loyal in tough situations. A big issue during the inaugural RHOD season was choosing sides when a good friend did something out of line, especially for Tiffany Hendra whenever LeeAnne Locken popped off on everyone all the time. This is something that Libras can relate to since their biggest problem can be "when they are forced to choose sides, because they are very indecisive and sometimes they forget that they have their own opinion." VERY Real Housewives of Dallas.

If You're A Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)...

Real Housewives of New Jersey is the show for you. The strength of a Scorpio are that they are usually "resourceful, brave, passionate, and a true friend," which well-summarizes the RHONJ cast. They are not the kind of people who can ever be counted out and they are all about loyalty and close relationships. The Scorpio also enjoys "being right," something that really applies to these ladies who all have issues apologizing and taking ownership for their mistakes. A Scorpio also likes "longtime friends," which makes RHONJ a great show to watch since the cast is full of relatives and women who have been friends for decades. People who are Scorpios are "passionate and assertive people" and that can be said about all of the New Jersey cast.

If You're A Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)...

Real Housewives of Atlanta is the show that you would probably enjoy the most. Typically, the Sagittarius "possesses a great sense of humor," which means that they will appreciate RHOA since there are the funniest ladies in the franchise. These women do not skip a beat when it comes to seizing the opportunity to throw shade, which is so Sagittarius since that sign will "say anything no matter how undiplomatic." Not only are the RHOA ladies and people with the Sagittarius sign super sassy, but they are also very disciplined when it comes to making their professional aspirations into a reality. The Sagittarius is "able to transform their thoughts into concrete actions and they will do anything to achieve their goals."

If You're A Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)...

Real Housewives of Orange County is a show that you need to watch. Most Capicorns are "responsible, disciplined, and good managers," which describes the the women in the O.C. who are very goal-oriented and career-focused. The weaknesses of Capricorns include "being a know-it-all" — cough cough Vicki Gunvalson — and being "unforgiving," which applies to the rest of the cast toward Vicki. Capricorns dislike "almost everything at some point," which aligns with the loyalties in The O.C. constantly shifting and pretty much everyone in the cast being friends and enemies at some point. Capricorns "have a hard time accepting others' differences," which once again applies to the cast verses Vicki dynamic. The Capricorn "must learn how to forgive others" and to "stop condemning them" which is very applicable to the women and Vicki in the aftermath of her breakup with Brooks Ayers.

In my opinion, all of the Real Housewives shows are worth watching, but if you have your mind set on watching just one series, then let your zodiac sign rule your decision and select the series for you.
