The Snuggler

Geminis are the least likely to sleep alone — 68% share the bed with a partner, pet, or child. This willingness to snuggle up at night likely stems from Geminis being the most afraid of the dark (42% of Geminis report a fear of the dark).

The Nightmare

Named not for experiencing nightmares, but being one. Sagittariuses are known for getting the least amount of sleep and having the weirdest sleep schedule. This fire sign is also most likely to sleep alone (48% do) which comes as no surprise since they seem terrible to sleep with.

The Teeth Grinder

Of all the signs, Capricorns grind their teeth at night the most (28% do). Bruxism is common for people who are stressed, overworked, and worrying too much – aka Capricorns. Fun fact: According to medical astrology, Capricorns are known to be distinctive about their teeth.

The Insomniacs

Pisces are governed by duality between the spiritual and physical. This emotional sign is often divided between reality and fantasy, which explains why so many Pisces (38%) have trouble falling asleep. Try meditation to become more conscious of each state and find sleep easier.
