Ever wonder how your friends might view you in your circle? Everyone holds a purpose, whether they're the friend who's the mom of the group, the life of the party, or the jokester, among other labels. And while you may be an all-around killer friend who's there to give advice but also to go out for a wild night, you're probably seen as being really, really awesome at one thing in particular. If you're unsure which type of friend you are among your crew (and you don't want to ask them), here's what your zodiac sign has to say.

An Aries can bring the fire and be the strong motivator of the group. "You're the brave one, the one people turn to when they need motivation, spunk, and a little bit of fire in their lives," Paula Pavlova and Katie Huang, astrologers and founders of Moonbox, tell POPSUGAR. "People love this about you, just be sure not to burn them out with your unique well of energy."
"When at your best, Taurus, you're patient and loving towards everyone around you, making you the perfect friend to come to when someone need advice, grounding, or support," Paula and Katie continue. That's when you're feeling most stable in life. "When out of balance, however, you can be like a bull in a china shop, bulldozing through life and knocking people over in the process."
People absolutely adore your company and you make the perfect wingman for any occasion. "You're charismatic, flirtatious, and contagious with your zest for life, and this is what people gravitate toward," they say. With this in mind, it's vital that you make sure to really connect with each person that matters to you, or you could run the risk of appearing aloof and uninterested, causing the people who quickly gravitated toward you to just as quickly pull away.
A Cancer is the ultimate homebody, loving the comfort and warmth of their own shell, which can make it challenging for them to step out into the world completely. "In that same vein, your love for cozy vibes makes people feel very welcome around you," Paula and Katie explain. Cancer is the "mother" sign, always protecting and nourishing the family (biological or chosen) that surrounds them.
You're a natural-born leader, Leo. You need no one and can certainly stand alone in any given situation with courage and grace, but you're at your best when you are with your pack. "People are inspired by you and can often aspire to be like you, so the way you walk the walk and talk the talk is essential to maintaining authentic relationships," they say.
When life comes crashing down, there's no better sign to have waiting in the wings than a Virgo. Virgos have a knack for solving almost any problem with their keen, analytical minds. Yet your highly observant nature is a double edged sword. "While you may able to see where issues are present, pointing them out too frequently (regardless of their good intentions) can be seen as hyper critical or overbearing to a degree," Paula and Katie warn.
Balanced and neutral, Libras bring harmony to any discord and tend to be the person people turn to when they need a voice of reason. "Represented by the scales of justice, Libras will always stand on the 'right' side of any situation, if there is a right side," they say.
Because you feel things so deeply, others can be easily overwhelmed with the intensity of emotions you express. "This is also your greatest strength and what people love most about you because it's the same quality that allows you love on such a deep and palpable level," they explain. People will come to you when they want depth and honesty.
You're the adventurous friend, Sag. "You have a very unique and joyful way of bringing spontaneity and excitement into everyday, mundane activities and are always ready to blast off into your next adventure in any given moment," Paula and Katie tell POPSUGAR. The people you surround yourself with love this about you and are always eager to soak up your optimism toward life.
When you're not in work mode, you make sure to tend to your friendships and relationships at a grounded and steady pace. "Capricorns are wise, cautious, and very logical, so you're a great person to dial up when your friends are thinking about reengaging in a toxic relationship or are about to make a spontaneous decision that will surely land them in a world of hurt," they reveal.
Eccentric and ever the rebel, your quirky air sign qualities make you able to think outside of the box, perhaps even outside of this world. "Any Aquarius is known for their future-focused and unique perspective on life, which makes you guys some of the most interesting friends to have around," they continue. Basically, you're anything but boring and people are intoxicated by your ingenious approach towards life.
You have a keen ability to feel into the spiritual realms of our existence, which makes you a wise influence on everyone around you. And as the escapist and dreamer, you can easily help distract a friend with fun or sensitivity when in need. "[Yet], your dreamy quality can oftentimes send you into the clouds, resulting in occasionally being flaky or wishy-washy when you don't necessarily mean to be," Paula and Katie warn.
