What’s Your Sign?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at OSU chapter.

 

Aries (March 21-April 20)

Aries are creative and adaptive. They tend to be very spontaneous, and definitely know how to be the life of the party! They are also incredibly ambitious (almost to a fault) and tend to be overachievers. Being a fire sign, they are sometimes quick to anger, but it is just because of their passionate personality. Because of this, they are also loyal friends, lovers and family members. You can count on Aries to always have your back.

Taurus (April 21- May 21)

As indicated by the bull, Taurus is full of strength and is incredibly strong willed. However, this also means that they are stubborn and won’t back down, even if things end badly. Taurus is practical and efficient, loving and appreciative. This makes them the easiest sign to open up and share your deepest fears with. Taurus are generous with their time, possession and love.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

Gemini tends to have a dual personality, making them difficult to predict. They are prone to quick mood swings, turning from hot to cold in the blink of an eye. However, they are also generous, affectionate and imaginative. Gemini is self-motivated, which inspires others to follow in their ways. Their charisma and accomplishments are infectious.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Cancer is traditional and loves home-life and domestic settings. They can sometimes be moody and may often seem fickle, but they are actually loyal and sympathetic friends. Cancer is conservative and sometimes need their alone time, but they always come back around.

Leo (July 23-August 21)

Leo is a natural born leader, and tends to be very vocal about their opinions. Although this can be a downfall, they are typically correct in their statements. They are brave, intuitive, and have a way of analyzing a situation to come up with the best solution every time. Beneath the facet of a leader, however, is a generous and sensitive soul. They don’t share this side with many, but it’s most definitely there.

Virgo (August 22-September 23)

Virgo has a charm that allows them to convince others of outrageous things with ease. They are inquisitive and have no problem easing information out of others. This makes them excellent in social situations. Virgo work well with others, but without balance in their lives can sometimes become short-tempered and impatient. They express their opinions freely, even though sometimes their comments are sharp and unwarranted.

Libra (September 24-October 23)

Libra is all about balance, justice, and equality. This makes them the mediator in friendships ad relationships. They make great debaters and seem to prove their points with ease and grace. However, their desire to be surrounded by beauty and harmony can drive them to be unreasonable or unhealthy. Libra’s have keen intuitions, but often do not give themselves enough credit for them.

Scorpio (October 24-November 22)

Scorpio is often misunderstood. They are bold and can overcome any obstacle with ease, but they are also often secretive and always judging others without drawing attention to themselves. Scorpio can be argumentative, but it is just because they see any opposition as a healthy challenge. They are cool and confident and pack a powerful punch when it comes to debating with others.

Sagittarius (November 23-December 22)

Sagittarius is the philosopher among the signs. They have a great ability to focus, but this also makes them very intense. This means that they sometimes wear themselves out by trying to take on too much at once. They are impatient and expect quick results from every situation, but they also make the most loyal friends and lovers. However, Sagittarius will not be tied down for nothing. Their philosophical pursuit can drive them to end relationships and prioritize things over their relationships.

Capricorn (December 23-January 20)

Capricorn is highly intelligent and applies their knowledge to practical matters. They are good organizers and have a great sense of purpose. They do not deal well with opposition or criticism, but a smart Capricorn will shrug off negativity. They often take on others problems, but rarely share their own problems, keeping them internalized.

Aquarius (January 21-February 19)

Aquarius is simple and accomplishes their goals in a quiet, unorthodox way. They will take up any cause, being the humanitarians of the signs, and help with surprising effectiveness. Although highly intelligent and loyal, Aquarius can be prone to laziness if not kept motivated. Most Aquarius are aware of this about themselves, however, and keep themselves motivated most of the time. Aquarius is often artistic and poetic, and makes the most natural friendships.

Pisces (February 20-March 20)

Pisces keep a low profile compared to the other signs, but they are constantly acquiring vast amounts of knowledge. They are honest, trustworthy and unselfish, but can sometimes be gullible and overcautious. This can lead to them sometimes being taken advantage of, which is unfortunate given that they are so gentle and generous. Pisces are determines and become passionately devoted to all that they do, making them a great friend of family member to have.
