How do you express kindness? If you don’t know, you might want to think about it because November 13th is World Kindness Day. In 1998, World Kindness Day was established to dedicate one day to promoting kindness worldwide. Unfortunately, there is a lot of negativity in the world.
If there is a day where everyone can hold back and remember that being kind is something everyone can do to show the best of themselves to others, then that is a great way to remind everyone how beneficial this is for everyone involved . Now let’s talk about how each zodiac sign expresses kindness.
Aries – Motivate others by sharing admirable qualities about them
Aries, you are the one who is an action-oriented individual and is competitive by nature, but also very motivating to others. And even if you don’t show it, you have a soft and vulnerable spot.
And suppose you see someone who has a lot of potential to do something great with their life, but doesn’t have enough self-confidence to go for it. In that case, you are the one who asks them to the table and gives them a list of admirable qualities that they need to make themselves feel better so that they are motivated enough to do what they want.
Taurus – Donate old items and clothes
Taurus, you are the one who is stoic and stable, and you put a lot of emphasis on items. You have trouble letting go of anything, even things you no longer need. However, when you think about people who are less fortunate than you, it affects your inflexibility, making you want to do something to help them.
You grab a few trash bags and go through your closet and drawers to see which clothes and items are in good condition and which you don’t need so you can donate them. You place these items in the garbage bags and donate the bags to a charity of your choice.
Gemini – Lends an ear
Gemini, you love communicating and socializing. However, you do the talking and can admit that you are sometimes a bad listener. And since you’re an air sign, you might not acknowledge your emotions too often. However, you will sympathize with someone who is going through a hard time.
So you are the one who invites them for a cup of coffee or calls them to ask what is going on. And you will be there to listen to them and give them advice if necessary. Showing them that you care about them is enough to make them feel better.
Cancer – makes meals for others
Cancer, you are the one who is always so caring, and home and family are important to you. But you want everyone who suffers to be cared for. Therefore, you are the one who cooks a meal and takes it to someone who needs support.
You can even invite them to your home for a nice home-cooked meal and lots of love. However, that will be up to them. They may not want to leave their house, and if that’s the case, you’ll be the one to surprise them with a meal.
Leo – Takes someone out to dinner or buys them gifts
Leo, you have a reputation for wanting to be noticed, but you don’t get enough credit because you are also warm-hearted and naturally generous. That’s why you show kindness by giving someone a gift, or by taking them out to dinner or for dessert.
You are not known as the nurturing type like Cancer, but if someone you know is going through a hard time, you will surprise them with a gift that could be a hug to make them feel better.
Virgo – Volunteer at an animal shelter or clinic
Virgo, you are all about service, and also small animals, including pets. That’s why you can perfectly show kindness by volunteering at an animal shelter or clinic. They need people to help, such as cleaning up after the animals or showing love.
You can also be the one to help find some sick animals to find new homes if their previous owners had to give them up. You may be the one who can adopt them, but if not, you may find someone who can.
Libra – Bake for others
Libra, you are known to be completely altruistic, and you also love peace and dislike conflict. You also have a sweet tooth and can appreciate that others do too. Therefore, you may be expressing an act of kindness by baking for others.
You bake cookies, pies or cakes or buy pastries. For example, you are the type to surprise your workplace with a box of donuts, freshly baked cookies or a cake. During times of stress you are more likely to do so.
Scorpio – Help someone with your ingenuity
Scorpio, you are intense and passionate, and you are also good at research and investigation. This makes you one of the most resourceful people, and that is where you would express your kindness.
Someone might tell you that they need a plumber or electrician because one is not always easy to find, for example, and you will be the one to quickly find the list of contractors that they need. That act of kindness will save others so much trouble!
Sagittarius – Spread encouragement
Sagittarius, you’re optimistic as is, and one of the best things you can do to show some kindness is spread encouragement. Many people are having a hard time and doubting themselves. So, when you’re online, spread encouraging messages on social media.
For example, if you use TikTok, make a few videos where you say some words of encouragement. And while you do it, validate how others are struggling because you don’t want to spread false positivity. However, remind people that they have a purpose and a reason to give their best.
Capricorn – Offer to mentor someone
Capricorn, you are the one who is known to work hard and take many things seriously because you are goal-oriented. Of course you also respect others who have ambitions and goals. However, if you notice that someone you know is struggling to find a way to achieve their goal, one of the kindest things you can do is to offer to mentor someone who may be struggling.
Or guide them even if they’re not struggling so they get a clearer picture of what they need to do to achieve a goal.
Aquarius – Show kindness to the environment
Aquarius, you are known as the humanitarian type, and when you show kindness to the environment, you express that side to yourself. There is always litter on the ground because not everyone takes the time to throw rubbish in the public bins, and not everyone throws items that can be recycled in the general bin.
You can pick up any litter you see on the ground (don’t forget rubber gloves while you do that) and throw it away, and if you see something recyclable on the ground, you’ll know what to do.
Pisces – Be kind to yourself
Pisces, you are the one who is known to do everything else for others, and you tend to neglect your needs. The only way you can show kindness is to show kindness to yourself. Respect your boundaries and respect your needs.
If someone asks you for a favor and you are tired and need time to rejuvenate, then you should say ‘no’. It sounds counterintuitive to do that on World Kindness Day, but the truth is, if you’re not kind to yourself and take care of yourself, how can you be kind to others?
There are many other ways you can show kindness to others regardless of your sign, such as paying something kind forward. For example, if someone buys you a cup of coffee, why not buy a cup of coffee for the stranger behind you, and those acts of kindness will continue? Unfortunately, there is too much negativity and chaos in the world, and everyone needs a day like World Kindness Day. Honestly, everyone should try to show acts of kindness every day, but there is at least one day that emphasizes the importance of that.
