The Zodiac is an imaginary circle in the sky, 8 degrees north and south of the equator, along which the Sun appears to travel each year. The moon and other planets are also within this band.
In Western astrology, these twelve signs are associated with twelve constellations: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Each sign covers 30° of celestial longitude.
This is an astronomical system using the Equator as the start of latitude and the vernal equinox as the origin of longitude. It is possible to identify a person’s both positive and negative qualities through astrology; but what are some of the most dangerous ones?
1. What Are The Most Dangerous Zodiac Signs?
The zodiac signs have their own unique way of expressing their emotions and thoughts. But some signs have very limited patience and even small incidents may cause them to become enraged. Sometimes, they can be so dangerous that no one can stop them from committing crimes when they are angry.
Here are all 12 zodiac signs ranked in order from most to least dangerous.
1.1. Capricorn
People often view Capricorns as unpredictable, cold, calculating, and ambitious. They are also seen as very emotionally affected individuals and are willing to wait for the right opportunity to act. When it comes to traits of danger, Capricorn checks all the boxes.
It doesn’t necessarily mean they are the cause, however, it is fascinating that out of nearly 500 killers listed in the ‘Killer Cloud’, Capricorn is listed as the most frequent zodiac sign with 55 killers.
1.2. Scorpio
Scorpio is just like any other dangerous zodiac sign. People with this sign are known for being incredibly jealous, clingy, and controlling. They also excel at hiding their true feelings, so you can never quite tell what they’re thinking.
The Scorpio symbol is a scorpion, with a tail that it uses to sting and release venom when it feels threatened. This is the most accurate way to explain how Scorpios operate: they will sting you in a figurative sense with their words or actions if they perceive danger or think someone is trying to take something away from them.
1.3. Aries
Aries is like any other dangerous zodiac sign. Known for their impulsivity, irritability and aggression, they will do whatever it takes to be on top.
Represented by the Ram, a symbol of strength and power, Aries can be extremely confrontational when feeling threatened. Rams are notorious for being bullies, as they seek to control and dominance in any situation.
1.4. Gemini
Gemini is one of the most unpredictable zodiac signs, possessing a dual personality as its greatest strength. On the positive side, they make for an entertaining friend, always looking for a good time.
On the other hand, their skills at manipulation are difficult to match; they know how to put on a show and persuade people to do things they may not usually do. This adaptability is what makes them so unpredictable and possibly dangerous if you’re not careful. Beware of the power of Gemini!
1.5. Leo
As an earth sign, Leos can be daring; they revel in the spotlight and like to be the center of attention. But they can also be obstinate, vain, and self-serving. Leos are not afraid to speak their minds when things don’t go their way.
Representing the lion – the king of the jungle – those born under this zodiac sign are known for their stubbornness and arrogance. Leos will extend to any lengths to protect their pride, often disregarding boundaries in the process.
1.6. Cancer
Cancer may seem harmless at first, but don’t be fooled – they are one of the riskiest zodiac signs. Cancers can be very unpredictable, controlling, and vengeful; and are notorious for holding grudges.
Represented by the crab, Cancer exhibits flexibility and perseverance – with a rigid shell outside, but soft and sensitive within. However, if you don’t break down their walls, they’ll resort to battle and know exactly how to hurt you where it hurts the most.
1.7. Virgo
Virgos are the seventh most unpredictable zodiac sign. The fact that they’re always demanding and critical can seem intimidating, even if they’re not always dangerous. Despite this, even the harshest Virgo is honest. They also have very strong opinions and don’t hesitate to voice them.
A Virgo is recognized for being an extremely fussy perfectionist who has very high standards for themselves and for others.
1.8. Pisces
Pisces is a subtle zodiac sign with a hidden, dangerous edge. They have the capacity to be compassionate and understanding, yet at the same time, they can be gullible and sly. As such, they are often taken advantage of due to their trusting nature.
This makes it one of the wise and riskiest signs in the zodiac – people born under it should be aware of its power. Additionally, because of their emotional nature, Pisces can be unpredictable; not hostile per se, but passive-aggressive at times. If you wrong a Pisces, they will remember it well.
1.9. Sagittarius
Sagittarius is generally the safest of all the fire signs. Because they’re always on the go, they rarely have time to get into trouble and get injured. Their free-spirited attitude also keeps them from holding grudges or seeking revenge. But this doesn’t mean they can do as they please.
Sagittarians can be quite irritable and blunt, often blurting out whatever comes to mind without thinking through the consequences first – which can lead to saying something hurtful or offensive.
1.10.Libra
1.11.Aquarius
Following closely behind Taurus, Aquarius is the second least risky zodiac sign. They’re known to be independent, unique, and sometimes a bit strange. They have a huge heart and care deeply about making the world a better place.
But they can come across as disconnected, as they often tend to be lost in their thoughts. Unfortunately, this can make them seem unfeeling towards others. On top of it all, Aquarius is often rebellious and nonconformist which can land them in trouble at times.
1.12.Taurus

Taurus is the least hazardous zodiac sign. Known for being tolerant, dependable, and hard-working, Taureans don’t have much of an evil streak. However, given the bull is their mascot, they tend to be stubborn and arrogant at times.
Also, they have trouble letting go of things and may bear a grudge. Plus, their loyal nature can cause tension when interacting with the more dangerous zodiac signs, as they don’t take kindly to people who try to come close to them.
Despite this, they are still one of the safest bets – in fact, Taurus topped the list of least dangerous serial killers from a research set of 488 offenders that were identified through a ‘Killer Cloud‘ database.
2. Most Dangerous Zodiac Signs: FBI List
“Ever heard that the zodiac signs could indicate if you’d be a criminal? The FBI seems to think so! Studies have found that certain signs have higher rates of crime than others; Cancers are the riskiest, while Libras and Geminis are known for fraud and other offences.
The FBI has split up the signs into four types: fire, water, earth and air. Even serial killers have been investigated by the bureau to see what sign they are!”
2.1. Libra, Gemini, And Aquarius Are Air Signs:
Libra is the most reliable of all the zodiac signs, and they tend to be very organized and safe. Aquarius often resorts to criminal behaviour as vengeance, which is why Gemini tends to worry about deceptive practices.
2.2. Capricorn, Virgo, And Taurus Are Earth Signs:
Taurus is notoriously hot-headed, which can make them difficult to handle. Virgo is usually quite organized and well-prepared. Capricorn, however, has a bit of everything and is often seen as the most balanced of the three.
2.3. Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces Are Water Signs:
Cancers can be incredibly aggressive, and Scorpios and Pisces are notoriously irritable. According to the FBI website, Cancers are the most hazardous criminals of all the zodiac signs, followed by Tauruses and Aries as second and third respectively.
Capricorn, Virgo, Libra, Pisces, Scorpio, Leo, Aquarius, and Gemini are at the bottom of the list since their offences generally don’t involve violence but instead tend to involve fraud or deceptive activities.
Many personal qualities can make someone a potential threat. Impulsive, aggressive, or easily agitated individuals are more likely to act in dangerous ways. Additionally, certain traits may be more subtly dangerous; for instance, a person with high emotional intelligence may use this to manipulate and control others. Additionally, a highly intelligent individual may ruthlessly pursue power.
The danger comes in different forms and we must consider many factors when assessing zodiac signs based on their most hazardous characteristics, including personality traits, psychological elements, and data. We must bear in mind that while data can show correlations between certain behaviours, they do not always demonstrate causation.
