Looking for some inspiration when it comes to your bedroom moves? Surprisingly, in this new world of readily available – well – everything, many of us still don’t have a lot of ideas or confidence when it comes to thinking up or testing out different sexual positions. Everyone has their own taste of course, but with so many options out there, we thought we’d look at how your astrological sign can help influence your enjoyment in the bedroom.
Don’t forget that each sign also rules a certain area of the body, and we are thought to be more sensitive in these bits. When it comes to sex, paying close attention to each sign’s particular body part while you get busy can have more dramatic effects. That said, you should always communicate with your partner just in case those areas are ultra-sensitive in a not-so-nice way.
Today we’re going to have some fun exploring sex positions tailored to your zodiac sign. Get out there and have fun experimenting!
Note: Many of these links go straight to pictures of how to do these positions. Heads up.
While no position would be bad per se, if you seriously want to watch this later, you want to choose one that will portray both of you in the kindest light. It seems hot in your head, but doing upside-down moves with a lot of bouncing may not show off your best… ahem… assets. The Pinball Wizard would be a great one to try – you get to see everything that’s going on, and with your slight backwards bend, the camera will capture you looking even sleeker in the tummy area!
How do I do it? Person 1 channels their inner yogi and gets into a bridge, resting fully on their shoulders. (Watch out for neck kinks!) Person 2 enters Partner 1 in a kneeling position. This position will allow both of you to wink voraciously at the camera, and the penetrative partner can do whatever they like with their hands!
Don’t expect to have a one-night stand with the sign of the virgin. While Virgos are sometimes referred to as the prudes of the zodiac, that’s simply not true. They just have high standards and aren’t willing to give anything away to someone who doesn’t earn their respect and trust. Once you do, Virgo can be a sensual and serious lover. Try the Zen Pause, so they can focus their considerable attention on you.
How do I do it? This is a neat one straight from the Kama Sutra that allows you both to take a moment during intercourse to pull closer and enjoy the excruciating feeling that comes about when you stop your natural rhythm. Once penetration has occurred, slowly roll onto your sides. The penetrated partner wraps their leg around the back and hips of their partner to pull them closer. Hug each other tightly and listen to your breathing while you increase your intimacy.
How do I do it? Have one person lie on their back with their ankles crossed and knees pulled up against their chest. Add a pillow under the head. Kneeling with their legs together, the second person pulls their partner’s hips onto their lap. As they enter, the person laying down should keep their thighs tight for maximum snugness and use the chest of the upright person to get more leverage to move around to both of your likings!
How do I do it? With one partner lying on their back, the second person gets on top facing away. Think Reverse Cowgirl, but with a twist. While on top, one partner turns at an angle so the horizontal partner’s bent knee is between their legs – you can use this for leverage as well. Partner one can lay back or sit up on their elbows if they want to get a better look!
There are many ways you could interpret the word ‘experimental’ because the options and risks will vary based on where you’re at in your life and relationship. Being more daring could mean you are risky with your environment, sneaking in some public sex, or you could try a raunchier take on an already twisted position. The key here is variety and adventure. For a position, give the Rainbow a try and make up your own variations!
How do I do it? One person lies on their back and pulls their knees in towards their chest with their legs up but not bent. The second person approaches perpendicular to their partner’s body. Supporting themself on their hands and knees if height allows, one partner penetrates at a 90-degree angle. Sounds fun right?
The trick to this Caps is that they usually need to have a real connection and trust in someone before they get vulnerable, and even then, they tend to come across as quite reserved. Taking it slow will let you ease in and potentially take the lead when you feel ready to do so. Go for the tried and true Spoon position, which will allow for a lot of intimacy, but you’re not completely vulnerable because you are facing away from each other.
How do I do it? Both partners lie down on their sides, the person in back with their hips slightly lower than the person in front. The ease and angle of penetration will depend on your heights, flexibility, and bodies, so have some fun playing around, twisting your leg and hips if necessary to allow your partner inside you. Once you’re there, you can go as fast or slow as you like. Increase the closeness with lots of hugging, massaging, and nuzzling of necks!
Try the Doorway Play move. It’s a little more difficult and the chances you’ll get caught will increase. This move is about challenging yourselves and you won’t have time to cuddle or hold hands while you’re making it happen, which should please Aquarius. For maximum rebellion, do it in your friend’s car, at a party, or somewhere else a little bit public.
How do I do it? Using the doorway for support, you’ll both be upright for this one. The penetrating partner stands in the doorway with their back rested against the frame in Chair pose. They can balance or cushion their back with their hands (when they don’t have them all over their partner). Person 2 gets in front and backs onto their partner’s lap, straddling their legs and wriggling their hips to achieve penetration. Once you are set, the partner being penetrated leans forward and uses the doorway for leverage, controlling the pace, depth, and timing all the way through!
How do I do it? In your best heels, get on the bed in tabletop position, your knees on the edge of the bed. Your partner enters you from behind in classic doggy style, but you bend your knees and let your partner grab onto one of your heels while they get into it.
How do I do it? With one partner lying on their back with their knees up, the second person straddles on top with their feet on either side of their partner’s shoulders, leaning forward. The Top can balance on their hands, placing them on either side of the Bottom’s face. You can take your time, control the pace and intensity and make this as fast or as slow as you like – watching every reaction on their face!
How do I do it? The penetrating partner sits in a cross-legged position, leaning back on their arms or against the wall for support. The second person kneels over their partner’s lap, their thighs hugging them, as they slowly lower down, controlling the depth of penetration. For an added bonus, use lots of lube to make it extra silky and make sure you smell delicious enough to eat!
There are plenty of good moves for this sign, but maybe the best part about it is the conversation you have leading up to the big night. Geminis will generally talk about anything, so get into it and reveal your kinkiest desire. Pirate and slave? Cop and thief? Go for it and pay attention to details – consider your costume and the character you want to portray. The more you get into it, the more exciting it will be! For some inspiration, try the Tabletop Position. You will need a desk, so going with the sexy librarian or teacher scenario where you can do that arm-sweep-the-crap-off-the-desk thing they do in movies may be a good one to test.
How do I do it? One partner sits with their butt right on the edge of the desk/table. Their partner penetrates them while standing and you can vary your own angles for maximum pleasure and role-playing. Lay all the way back or sit up, looking straight into their eyes. Enjoy!
How do I do it? Lie on your sides, facing each other. Get closer, closer, and closer, until penetration can occur, your bottom leg between the other person’s and your top leg around your partner’s back and hip. There are ample opportunities to whisper sweet nothings in your ears and to rub and caress each other whole you slowly build to a climax.
Before you push any boundaries, make sure your partner is as excited as you are to get going. On the flip side, don’t be afraid to divulge your deepest desires to your chosen bedmate!
Whatever sign you are, don’t let that stop you – try ‘em all out and then make up your own versions. Now get out there and have some fun!
