If you've ever met someone who was exceptionally tough, always getting back up when they get knocked down, you may not have considered their zodiac sign had something to do with it.

Indeed, some signs are known for giving up quickly or being easily disheartened, while others are better known for their grit and stamina. That said, the following three signs are a safe bet if you're looking for someone who refuses to give up.

P.S. This would apply to anyone with any of the following signs as their sun, moon, and/or rising sign.

1.

Capricorn

The grittiest sign of them all is none other than Capricorn, the scrappy sea goat of the zodiac. And the sea goat itself couldn't be a more fitting representation for this sign, with their ability to swim to the deepest depths and climb the highest mountains.

Capricorns are ruled by Saturn, after all, which is the planet of longterm success, discipline, and hard work. As such, these folks have a bit of struggle built into their DNA, which means they won't back down when things get tough.

They don't just rise up in the face of difficulty, they pretty much expect it, so they're always prepared to kick it up a notch if need be.

2.

Scorpio

The second zodiac sign with the most grit would have to be Scorpio, known for their ability to transform and evolve over and over again. Ruled by Pluto, the planet of rebirth, Scorpio considers challenges and difficulties just another chance to reinvent themselves.

They're also a fixed sign, and all of the fixed signs tend to have solid work ethics, as well as stamina. They're also known for stubbornness, which, in the case of grit, can definitely come in handy.

Scorpios have incredibly strong resolve and are fearless in the pursuit of what they want. Whatever it takes to get it, they're not afraid to put in the work.

3.

Taurus

The third grittiest sign of them all is the bull of the zodiac: Taurus. If there's anything Taurus is known for, it's being stubborn, but the truth is, stubbornness is essential if you're trying to stay on track.

Taurus is also one of the most value-driven signs, meaning they know their morals and values and stick to them unwaveringly. An aspect of grit itself is having strength of character, so Taurus definitely has that part down.

And like Scorpio, Taurus is a fixed sign, so at the end of the day, their stamina simply helps them naturally excel where grit is necessary.

The takeaway

Someone's zodiac sign can never guarantee whether someone will have grit, but Cap, Scorpio, and Taurus do have a reputation for it. From their ambition, to their stamina, to their stubbornness, these three are not going down without a fight.
