4 Zodiacs Who Love To Play The Devil’s Advocate

We all have that one friend, family member, or coworker – the one who just can’t agree with us, no matter what. Even when we know deep down they share our opinion, this person can’t help but to play devil’s advocate. What makes them so contrary, and why do they refuse to sympathize? Here are the four zodiacs who love playing devil’s advocate, and how astrology explains their argumentative tendencies.

Aries: The Argument Expert

Aries people are very loyal, so they will defend and blindly agree with their loved ones. However, Aries people also love a good debate, and they are known for starting arguments. That’s because Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of conflict, assertiveness, and aggression. Mars explains this star sign’s combative nature and unwillingness to back down from a fight. Aries people are eager to go to war, and they can present an argument for anything (even if it actually goes against their beliefs). They will play devil’s advocate if they are bored, want to help you strengthen your argument, or just feel like flexing their debate muscles. And, as an exceptionally quick-thinking sign, they will come up with a contrary opinion or statistic so fast that your head will spin. You can go round for round with an Aries, and just when they’re on the verge of agreeing with you, they’ll find yet another way to play devil’s advocate.

Gemini: The Curious Researcher

Geminis are highly intelligent and curious, so they love learning about all sides of an argument. This is partly because Gemini is represented by the twins – the natural duality of this star sign means that they understand there are two sides to every story, and they may even hold conflicting views within themselves. Half of them may agree with you while the other remains unconvinced, so they play devil’s advocate just to see if you can fully persuade them. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of intellect, expression, and quick thinking. This means that Geminis research their arguments thoroughly, and they are skilled at communicating their perspective. It’s a challenge to win a debate against this star sign because they are so well-informed and have silver tongues. They play devil’s advocate just to see how much you really know, and to better understand every side of a situation.

Libra: The Fair-Minded Peacemaker

Libras are fair-minded and diplomatic, which is why they often play devil’s advocate. As the sign represented by the scales, Libras are innately interested in justice and fairness. They believe everyone deserves to be heard out and treated equally, regardless of whether they agree with your opinion. Libras are also natural peacemakers, often finding themselves in the position of the middleman between two opposing parties. They are good at making sure everyone feels seen and that the most equitable outcome is reached. This zodiac plays devil’s advocate to represent every perspective and to help others find a fair, reasonable solution to their disagreement. And they never come across as combative or unkind when presenting their arguments.

Aquarius: The Rebellious Contrarian

No zodiac loves playing devil’s advocate more than Aquarius. In fact, reverse psychology works better on this star sign than any other, because Aquarians hate being told what to do and prefer to go against the grain. That’s because Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of rebellion, individuality, and eccentricity. This zodiac is unafraid to be totally different from everyone else and defend a controversial opinion. Playing devil’s advocate comes naturally to them, not because they love to argue, but because they enjoy offering a unique perspective. Aquarians never blindly follow tradition or social norms – they would rather pave their own path. They see the big picture and are happy to present as many opposing viewpoints against your argument as possible.
