With cuffing season on the rise and costume sales at their peak, we are taking a look at the sexy role-play scenario that best suits each zodiac sign.
Nervous about broaching the subject with your partner? Fear not.
A 2018 survey commissioned by sex toy brand EdenFantasys revealed the kink positive tendencies of Americans — role-play tops the list of sexual experiences those polled were into, with 29 percent saying they were interested in it and one in four (24 percent) reporting they wanted to give it a try with their current partner.
Why try role-play?
Role-play is an excellent way to express sexual fantasies and explore power dynamics with a partner or within a partnership. As iconic triple Sagittarius Joan Didion famously maintained, “we tell ourselves stories in order to live,” and those stories can and should cast us in the light of erotic imagination.
As we age we lose our sense of playfulness, allowing anxiety to inhibit experimentation and fear to stymie exploration. Role-play is a way to connect with a sense of freedom and a spirit of creativity that may have been dulled or deadened by the other less hot roles we enact on a daily basis.
Role-play is an expansive arena and can run the gamut from dirty talk to full-on costumes, burner phones and aliases. Where you and your partner fall in the spectrum of those roles will be individual to you.
When introducing the idea of role play to a partner, remember that consent is king. As with any sexual experience, make sure you establish solid boundaries, clear communication and mutual enthusiasm.
Further, there is enough shame, guilt and rotten repression in the world; do your part to combat this unholy trinity by meeting the disclosure of any fantasy with compassion, curiosity and a fixed stance of non-judgment.
Read for your sun and rising, as well as your Mars sign, which governs sex drive and desire — also your Neptune sign, which rules the realms of dreams, fantasy, cosplay, costumes, Nitrous Oxide and cartoons.
While you’re at it, and getting to it, make sure and consult our lists of which sex toys to buy, foreplay styles to follow and fantasies to consider, based on the configuration of your constellations of kink.
First timer
Aries is the first sign in the zodiac and as such is intrigued by newness of every measure, including feigned sexual naïveté.
This role play scenario of inexperienced first timer, coupled with experienced instructor, has the capacity to be deeply cathartic as I know exactly one person that didn’t have an awkward/bumbling time losing their virginity and that is only because he paid for the privilege.
Cardinal fire, the energy of Aries, is initiatory. Rams will be hot for this role play that casts them as the curious innocent, or the well-versed —and ready to instruct — veteran lover.
Pizza delivery
Taurus is a sign synonymous with comfort, consumption and carnality. Thus, a role play scenario in which a Taurus a) doesn’t have to leave the house, b) has kinky sex and c) gets to eat cold pizza afterwards? Triple win, all appetites satisfied.
Cheaters
Geminis, who were born for harmless mischief and are naturally inclined towards duality/duplicity, will love this scenario in which they and their partner pretend to be unfaithful lovers cheating on their unsuspecting spouses. An elaborate text exchange, some illicit nudes and a midday rendezvous at a hotel will give monogamous Geminis a taste of novelty without souring a sure thing.
Plumber
In terms of the physical body, Cancer rules the breasts and lymphatic system, a kind of plumbing if you will. In kind, the plumber role-play scenario is right up their pipe. Cancer is associated with the fourth house of home. Any kind of improvement to their nest, real or imagined, is a pleasure in itself.
For an optimal experience, make sure there’s a tool belt present and a spray faucet handy.
Famous celebrity
Fake it til you make it, sunbeams— Leo folk low-key already act like they’re famous. In this scenario, they play the part of a famous musician/artist/actor/porn star, while their partner fulfills the role of adoring fan/body guard/journalist.
Touched by their adulation, the star in question deigns to make dreams come true with a private performance. Autographs and orgasms, go off.
Runner up for Leo role-play is a hot monarch/loyal subject situation.
Maid/butler
Virgo rules the sixth house of service and daily routines. Role play that involves “servicing” or being serviced by a partner while dressed as a member of staff at an elaborate English manor house will get their “Bridgerton” loving, “Downton Abbey” fantasizing knickers in a twist, in a good way.
Pretending to be a housekeeper at a hotel works well, too. Knock before entering and then turn over the do not disturb sign. Bending over to scour the bathtub equals chores getting accomplished and pleasure prevailing and there is nothing more satisfying to a Virgo than breathlessly uttering the phrase, “you missed a spot.”
Bonus: the feather duster is both erotic and practical, an irresistible combination for this ilk.
Artist/muse/easel rider
Libra is ruled by Venus, planet of love, beauty and aesthetics. Appreciators of the finer things in life and fine art in general, the people of the scales will go all out for an artist/muse role play scenario in which nudity, elaborate posing, ravenous desire and the sacred acts of creation and copulation are present.
Bonus: whatever ends up on the canvas; be it paint, lube, etc; will make for an enduringly sexy memento of the experience.
Detective/suspect
Nothing gets a Scorpio hotter than an illicit confession and an uneven power dynamic. Celebrate the zodiac’s resident detective by engaging in criminal/interrogator role play.
Have one party be a suspect accused of a crime, or, better yet, of withholding their darkest fantasy. Have the other be a hard-talking detective, pushing for every detail. Two-way mirror, bad coffee and uncomfortable metal chair encouraged — but not required.
Strangers in the night
Sagittarius is a sign defined by the need for freedom, one whose inner world looks very much like the open mouth of a two lane highway. Honor this spirit by planning to “accidentally” meet while both partners are passing through a nameless town.
Pick a gas station, pull up to the same pump and then take it to the bathroom, the backseat or the nearest motel. A hitchhiker-as-stranger scenario also works for this ilk. No names, no rules, no regrets.
Landlord/tenant
Ever on the rise and laying the foundation for future success, Capricorn is ruled by strict planet Saturn, but in this role-play scenario, sea goats can bend the rules, easing the terms of eviction by having their late-with-the-rent tenant pay off their debt in more interesting/compromising ways.
Yoga instructor/student
Aquarius is the sign of outer limits, including cults, layered necklaces and loose linen pants. As a fixed modality they love telling other people what to do — think real-deal obedience as foreplay scenario.
Getting to a higher love through “down, dog!” instruction and the consensual arrangement of limbs is an ideal way for water bearers to explore, connect and loosen up in every conceivable sense. Nama-go-all-the-way, my babies.
Apocalypse scenario
Pisces is oft depicted as a dreamy idealist, but in truth they’re all one bad breakup away from full blown nihilism.
In consideration of that watery underbelly, the people of the fish will be game for a role play scenario in which the world has been compromised by catastrophe, supplies are limited, the end is near and they can f–k like the last gasp of life itself.
This situation is best enacted on a deserted island if you can afford it, or in a secluded wilderness if you can’t. Canned food, survival stories and surplus jackets encouraged.
