The verb "to heal" means "to make whole" or to return something to its former healthy state. Heal, whole, healthy are all essentially the same word.

Suffering is an integral part of human existence. Whether the wound is psychological, spiritual or physical, healers occupy one of the most respected places in any culture.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is similar to astrology in that it identifies different personality types. However, instead of using the position of the stars at the time of your birth, you are classified based on your answers to questions about yourself. There are 16 Myers-Briggs types, and 12 zodiac signs. The INFP (Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Perceiving) personality type is known as the "Healer" or "Mediator" because they love to help others solve their problems.

Here are four zodiac signs that are similar to INFPs in their calming presence, their desire to offer emotional support, and the gentleness and modesty they exhibit while avoiding confrontation and self-centeredness.

1. Cancer

Ironically, the most natural healer of the zodiac signs also bears a name that stands for the world’s second-leading cause of death. But the astrological sign of Cancer, named for a constellation in the northern hemisphere rather than a disease, is ruled by the moon, making it intuitive and motherly. Cancers tend to be homebodies rather than adventurers, and they lovingly furnish their homes, turning them into the perfect place of comfort—part sanctuary, part hospice.

2. Pisces

With Neptune, the planet of mysticism and transcendence, as their ruler, Pisces act as a mediator between the physical and metaphysical worlds. Deeply empathetic and intuitive, they can understand how you feel even if you haven’t said a word. Pisces are the best listeners of the zodiac. Their gentle and soothing demeanor makes them masters at making you feel comfortable sharing your most intimate secrets, knowing that they will remain private. You won’t even be ashamed to cry around them—and few things heal the soul more than a good cry.

3. Virgo

As an earth sign, Virgo is the embodiment of stability and dependability. Ruled by Mercury, they are master communicators. What better person to heal than a stable person who knows how to choose the right words at the right time and how to deliver them correctly? When you need a word of encouragement, Virgo is there, delivering it softly and with a smile. They can lift your spirits when everything seems hopeless and gloomy. As the ancient Greek poet Pindar said, “The best healer is good humor.”

4. Capricorn

Capricorns are natural problem solvers, able to maintain calm in chaos, offer comfort in moments of stress, and provide a safe space in the midst of a raging storm. Don’t be fooled by their iron work ethic and methodical nature, because underneath it all lies a deep conviction: the best way to pull someone out of the pit of despair is to have a well-thought-out rescue plan and follow through on it. If they found a baby bird with an injured wing, desperately chirping alone in the middle of a field, Capricorns would gently pick it up, carry it home, and care for it until they could release it into the wild so it could fly again.
