As thousands of athletes and renowned figures gather to celebrate the official kick-off of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris, read on to see which one you’d medal in, according to your zodiac sign.

Aries: Track and field

Just like your fierce planetary ruler, Mars, you’re dynamic, competitive and full of energy, Aries. Being a Fire sign can also explain why you thrive on excitement and never shy away from a challenge. Whether it’s sprints or decathlons and heptathlons, the burst of speed and competitive edge surrounding track and field perfectly suits you.

Taurus: Diving

You value beauty just as much as you value precision and focus, Taurus. When combining the flexibility and technique of gymnastics with the strength it takes to leap off a springboard (that can range up to 33 feet high) in hopes of gracefully landing in the water, the art of diving perfectly embodies your Venusian spirit.

Gemini: Tennis

Being ruled by Mercury makes you naturally swift and versatile, Gemini. In the case of tennis, agility is an important factor that can determine the outcome of a match, as it is both a fast-paced and demanding sport. The need for quick reflexes and strategic thinking resembles your Mutable mind and multifaceted nature.

Cancer: Swimming

In addition to being the first Water sign in the zodiac, you embody the natural fluidity of this element, Cancer. While there are countless swimmers in the world, only a few make it to the Olympics. These swimmers have learned to cultivate their relationship with water after years of training and adapting to the aquatic environment, resembling your innate receptivity and tenacity.

Leo: Gymnastics

On top of basking in the spotlight, you’re also incredibly fond of the artistry in every performance, Leo. When a gymnast runs across the springboard with courage, power and grace, their presence and showmanship are like no other, which perfectly captures your regal essence. You not only have the courage but also the charisma.

Virgo: Table tennis

You’re a lover of strategy, Virgo. Table tennis is no different, as it is a game of tact, etiquette and precision. With each swift rally and calculated spin, table tennis demands meticulousness and analysis, naturally resonating with your methodical nature. You, of all people, would appreciate the skills that go into this captivating sport.

Libra: Beach volleyball

It takes collaboration for beach volleyball, much like your appreciation for balance and partnership, Libra. A dynamic interplay between two players, this sport emphasizes teamwork, cooperation and harmony, all of which align with your Venusian values. The beach setting also compliments your love for aesthetically pleasing environments.

Scorpio: Surfing

You naturally gravitate towards intensity, Scorpio. Everything from the way the surfers conquer the powerful waves to the thrill that comes with every surge is enough to captivate you. Your Plutonian persona is also known to push boundaries and explore the depths of every situation, much like the exhilarating experience of this Olympic sport.

Sagittarius: Marathon

If anyone in the world is all about the journey, it’s you, Sagittarius. You thrive on the idea of adventure and venturing out of your comfort zone, which is why the marathon perfectly suits your love for exploration and your unwavering drive to conquer new horizons. The ultimate reward of crossing the finish line is a true reflection of your Jupiterian spirit. You believe anything is possible because why not?

Capricorn: Basketball

You’re disciplined and more than often recognized for your accountability, Capricorn. Similarly, the game of basketball requires focus, strategy and determination, aligning perfectly with your ruler, Saturn, not to mention your relentless ambition. Fellow Capricorn and Olympian LeBron James also exemplifies these qualities, consistently showcasing dedication and teamwork.

Aquarius: Breaking

You see the value in rebellion and pushing societal norms, Aquarius. Making its official debut in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, Breaking (also known as Breakdancing) aligns perfectly with your innovative and unconventional nature. It not only allows you to showcase your skills in an athletic and artistic way but also holds space for your individual expression.

Pisces: Sailing

You’re dreamy, intuitive and deeply connected to the Water element, Pisces. Sailing allows you to immerse yourself in the mysterious rhythms of the ocean while skillfully maneuvering the sails. This Olympic sport perfectly captures your innate ability to adapt to your surroundings, as well as your overall connection to the sea.
