50 Hilarious Astrology Memes With A Little Something For Every Zodiac Sign
Interview With ExpertMost of us are guilty of looking up what our zodiac signs say about us, whether we believe in astrology or not. Admittedly, there’s no harm in doing so, and it’s often fun to check in with yourself and find out why you are the way you are, according to the stars.
Something that can make this even more enjoyable is sharing it with like-minded people who perhaps have similar personality quirks as you do. One great way to do this is through astrology memes, which the Instagram account "Jakesastrology” is full of.
In this article, we’ve collected some of the best astrology jokes and zodiac memes this page has to offer. To find them, all you have to do is scroll down!
While you’re busy sending them to your friends, don’t forget to check out a conversation with astrologers Babs Cheung and Julia Mihas, who let us know if these memes are astrologer-approved.

I love how exquisitely this captures the unnerving worry for public safety, that zodiac-spouters evoke with their cultist claptrap. It's essentially racism by birthmonth rather than skincolour, but good luck explaining that to the cultists.
The owner of this account, Jake Register, is, in fact, a Libra. He’s also the author of Cosmopolitan’s weekly horoscopes and does astrology readings. His love for astrology content led him to create the “Jakesastrology” account, which currently has over 122k followers.
For Jake, memes aren’t about following a trend that’s quickly going to die off. Instead, it’s more about delving deeper into his passion for horoscopes. Jake told Business Insider that what drew him towards astrology growing up was a sense of validation that he struggled to find elsewhere.
“I found astrology to be such an empowering belief system because I was able to comfortably 'fit in' as a queer person—there are no rules for being a believer in astrology, whereas I felt excluded and uncomfortable with some of the implied stipulations that come with Christianity," he said.
"I don't believe in astrology, I'm a saggittarius, and we are natural sceptics."
Oh I can answer it, if you'd permit. Easily, in fact. If someone believes in Santa, that is their prerogative. If someone that believes in Santa start maligning others that do not, however, they are no longer within their rights. Denouncing someone publically on the basis of "evidence" that amounts to mass hysteria, has a measurable detrimental effect on that person and their life, in exactly the same way that racism and sexism do. Would you tolerate a coworker that insisted on calling every non-muslim "Infidel" all the time? I think not.
Load More Replies...Literally every single source of "knowledge" on this subject classifies me as a typical such&such, and not once has anyone guessed the right sign. No two sources even agree on which sign I supposedly am.
I'll occasionally gently headbut my friends, then say, "I can't help it. I'm an Aries."
I had someone who was into it tell me what sign I was. They were 5 months out. It's all NONSENSE.
And yet women keep complaining that men's hair looks fantastic so easily. Watch and learn, ehovan, I mean wash and learn.
Easy to have nice hair when your hormones don't do a merry dance every month
Load More Replies...bro, 100% this, like wtf, astrology not real but the shampoo you use for your hair can be a body, face and toothpaste dammmmmm
Coming from a man that bleaches his hair, I somehow get the impression he knows about as much about haircare as he does about tampons.
Some gay guys have a a private giggle too; for the 3-in-1, maybe define 'effective'? As distinct from the placebo effect?
as a Gemini who over thinks everything, it depends on where it is, if its instantly fatal yes, anywhere and anything else no
Jake adds that feeling left out of traditional belief systems has pushed many of his peers towards astrology too.
"We're all able to find a practice and belief that we fit into perfectly, and we can explore and play with different spiritualities to find out which ones we like or believe in most," he said. "I also think that astrology and other 'unconventional' belief systems feel empowering to many people — especially marginalized groups of people."
Aquarius: I don’t have plans and could go, but I’m lost in my own head so I’ll (might) see you in six months.
A Pisces would say, "Oh, sorry, I have plans. I'm gonna be drawing/weaving/dyeing fabric/sewing/crocheting...."
As an Aries," yayy. But if u don't do exactly what I want to, I am going to mope the whole time'
I read somewhere that as Libra is the only inanimate object of the Zodiac we don't have minds to be made up for us.... I'm now applying Aloe to the self burn...♎😁

i'm a capricorn, this is me tho, after like 8 cups of coffee at 12:00 hours
Honestly while zodiacs are really cool and there is no issue with believing them I don't think we should decide a persons personality and whether we like them or not based off of the month they were born in EDIT: Guys Ik that no one on here is probaly taking these memes seriously, sorry if I came across as a downer
I don't think anyone here is taking this stuff seriously, Rosie XD
Load More Replies...This is dead on for three people in my family, two pisces and a libra. Perhaps that means impatient parenting, rather than arbitrary connect-the-dots pictionary precursors being laid out by Ptolemy thousands of years before anyone even knew what stars are. Out of sheer morbid curiosity I looked sagittarius up. Did you know the stars of that constellation are over 5000 light years apart? You literally cannot recognise it from the moon.
This page is far from being the only one with such a huge following when it comes to astrology memes. There are hundreds of astrology-specific Twitter and Instagram accounts created to satisfy a community of astrology-obsessed followers, which started growing in 2018.
But for those who have been interested in this for a long time, such an increase in astrology-related memes comes as no surprise. Astrologer Ophira Edut, who has been in the business for around 30 years, isn’t shocked that people are turning to astrology for answers. According to her, when politics aren’t as favorable in people’s eyes, the demand for astrologers grows.
"People are looking for answers and meaning because the world seems to make no sense right now — especially with the political climate we're in," she told Insider. "I think people are like, 'Well, this doesn't make sense from a logical point of view. Maybe there's a bigger spiritual lesson for the world that we're learning? Maybe astrology can explain it.'"
I don't believe in astrology but I DO love reading my pets' "horoscopes" and translating them into dog/cat terms XD so if one of my dogs' horoscope says something like "You will find a new love" - translation: "You will find a new love (that is a squeaky toy)" XD
I don’t believe in astrology either, but it’s something to look at when I’m bored and I’ve exhausted every other option. Though now I have to go check what my cat and ferret have as zodiacs…

Nah, that isn't blood. We all know that Kirby would just swallow people whole, so no stabby

Don't forget the eclipse, full moon in Scorpio, ( in April) . Its been a busy month
Riiiiiiiiight.... and all mexicans are lazy, all black people are criminals, and wednesday's child is ALWAYS an emo. HOW DO YOU NOT HEAR YOURSELF?!
Bored Panda reached out to astrologers Babs Cheung and Julia Mihas, whose opinions concerning astrology memes seem to be mixed. Mihas says, “As both an astrologer and a millennial, I love astrology memes. I can carry whole conversations with my friends using memes alone.”
Meanwhile, Cheung tells us that they can be a great way to form a community. “As an astrologer, I find astrology memes to be, at best, touchpoints that connect people to each other through humor, and at their absolute worst, they can drive people to develop "low-key zodiacal bigotry" and prejudice over longer periods of time.
I don't personally share them with friends or clients, but plenty of friends and clients share them with me...and some of them are really hilarious!”
Not quite accurate, the therapist should be mid-eyeroll and calling men in white coats to bring a special long-sleeved garment for the patient.
man this is me and my best friend in a nutshell not message in like 3 or 4 years then finally answers and it's just, "holly sheet ya alive" or "welcome back to the living"
If I ever get a tattoo, it will be an eight-pointed star! …cause I’m not sure how I’d feel about getting a tattoo of a star sign that was abducted by Zeus, of all gods, and made a cupbearer to the Olympians.
She further explains the double nature that these jokes have. “Memes have a way of being inductive, in that they take one specific experience with a sign and attribute that one single experience to the general population, which sounds an awful lot like the ways in which people develop prejudice.”
Something she doesn't approve of is creating negative stereotypes about certain zodiac signs, similar to this one: "Never date a Scorpio because if you have to break up with them, they will give you hell and seek revenge.”
She says, “This type of meme is common in the marketplace, in fact, the most hated signs of the zodiac tend to be Leo, Gemini, and Scorpio, which creates the false perception that these signs don't have any redeeming qualities, which couldn't be farther from the truth." Therefore, she urges us to keep in mind that astrology is a complex emotional language that helps us communicate our lived experiences.
I come from a large family. My mum could never remember if any of us were born in the AM or PM..😁
HUGE red flag. Literally worse than finding out she was a member of NXIUM or whatever that sexcult was called.
Pisces here, can confirm XD It's not always with people though - could be a new show, a funny comic strip, a stuffed animal, etc.
Soo true, I could make a world record with the number of crushes I've had
FR though. pisces here- it is books, shows comics, etc. LakotaWolf's right.
However, according to Mihas, it’s hard to prevent similar issues from happening. “Modern astrology has always had a history of 'trash astrology;' I'm talking about the glib horoscopes you read in a monthly tabloid. In fact, even the most intellectual astrologer was probably introduced to astrology through something culturally trashy - whether that's reading a cheesy book or a meme on social media.”
i gay emo spongebob, He enjoys romance but does not wish to partake it in himself. The eponymous character was confirmed to be asexual according to interviews from show creator Stephen Hillenburg in 2002 and 2005. Like real-life sea sponges, SpongeBob has been shown to asexually reproduce by budding.
hello @james stevenson, as you can see with these comments, asexual is someone who doesn't like having the entire physical side of a relationship, they look more into the emotional side of a person, there personality and how they act, they also prefer to eat garlic bread more then have intercourse with their partner, (jk jk, identified as asexual at one point till i found out i was actually demisexual, also me and my friend who is asexual joked a lot about how we liked Garlic bread more then our partners-) anyways long story short, asexual people can be into whatever person they want BUT not have the need to sleep with that person or as in have intercourse with them, if need anymore info i think the best i seen to get info on this stuff is by asking or i got a lot of mine from friends/experience also from the LGBTQIA2S+ instergram account

Mine too! But I'm an Aries so i shouldn't talk s**t... But I will
Load More Replies...Taking everything into account, she suggested that perhaps all of this shouldn’t be taken too seriously. “Astrology memes caricature the 12 signs, or maybe just make fun of astrology in general. Good humor holds up a mirror - think about how the jester in medieval courts was the only one who could tell political truths or even insult the king to his face. If an astrologer doesn't like an astrology meme, it may be because they take themselves too seriously. There are memes made of every profession, so why get uptight when a meme is poking fun at yours?”
Hey, hey, come on now. Some Pisces will READ away all the unpleasant memories XD
That's my sister, me, and my daughter, and I can confirm this is 100% true.
SLEEP IT OFF!!!! after crying yourself to sleep, first. edit: spelling
There is not a sign for every planet, because the signs predate modern astronomy. It counts only one moon, to name one example. It considers Pluto a planet, to name another.
I don't understand this, my brother is a Cancer, he's got so much confidence and gregariousness it actually forms a "yes I can" field of about 7' radius around him.
That's probably because either 'he's naturally outgoing and confident' or 'this has no correlation with where various planets were when he was born'. Respect for your brother, though.
Load More Replies...Don't mean to be rude but I'm a cancer and the extrovert of the family. Can understand this though, especially if going to a place tou never have before
You should meet my sister, she'd laugh at this. Every astrology nut would call her a leo or taurus, but she's a cancer.
She concludes by saying, “The pros outweigh the cons to me, but one could say that astrology memes reduce astrology to stereotypes that undermine how complex and intellectually rigorous it actually is. That's fair enough, though I think the benefit of spreading awareness about this divine art, even if it's through humor, ultimately piques the interest of those who will one day become astrologers.”
Are you under the impression that Pisces or Scorpios or Geminis welcome others telling them how they should spend their paychecks?
Load More Replies...Never heard anyone say any of those things. OTOH: Astrologer: "Why do you not believe in astrology." Me: "Actually, the bible credits astrologers with finding Jesus, and I can rationalize the way cyclical events could explain some of what astrologers believe in. I just personally find Christian practices mentally healthier for me." Astrologer: looks at my chart. "Whoa. I'll pray for you." "Why?" "It's all crosses. That might be good in Christianity, but it in astrology... well, let's just say it builds character."
Can anyone guess my sign based on my opinions of astrology?

I'm a Gemini and the onlyy difference is this is me most days, bad or not.
Is the mark of an idiot the giving away of bright yellow balloons, or carrying them around all day?
This is me on flights. And I'm a Taurus. Funny how coincidences work
YESSSSSS! Need my snacks. I used to carry a plate and donuts around in my purse all the time. As a Taurus, I generally have enough to make a three layer sandwich simply from the items in my purse. 😆

It's not the planet. It's the infection crowding out every other lifeform : homo sapiens.
To all the scorpios out there: You guys are great people, I'm sure, and other signs have their bad stuff too. As a gemini with close scorpio family and friends, I can confirm that you guys are only bad sometimes (but most signs are)

Mr Auntriarch is a Scorpio, and he's pure gold. Yes he does have a sting in his tail.
I would have argued with this, but the "efficient market theory " ... oh dear ...
How is economics like astrology at all? And why is it just for men?
Self-aggrandising magical thinking in a desperate bid to stave of hystrionic fear of the unknown with some fanciful illusion of control? .....Hm, I see your point. They are indeed not similar. They are identical.

Had a bf that I checked up on: Aries with six Taurus signs in the planets. Unbelievable as well as scary accurate. He was a real Trumpanzee that never had rational thoughts or could be reasoned with. Made this aquarian gal run..
When I commented above that astrology didn't feel psychologically healthy to me, THIS is why. You need to EARN knowledge about a person's innermost self; if you haven't witnessed it, or they haven't chosen to tell you, you don't get to act on what you expect they'll be like. Think about it: if they don't know something about themselves, and you presume you know it, that'd gonna be bad. If they do know something about themselves, but they haven't chosen to tell you yet, that's gonna be bad. If they know something about themselves, but it hasn't come up yet, that's gonna be bad.
Little typo there : this is the HUMAN response. That is why we undergo communications training.

This is the murican education system, not only libras. Whether someone watches reality tv is a FAR better predictor of this behaviour than birth month.
As a Scorpio, I have better things to do with my time than Play kid games. Just leave people alone.
Also believing or not believing in something doesn't automatically qualify somebody as dumb.
Not dumb per se no, but WILDLY undisciplined in their thinking. Confirmation bias really isn't a complicated concept. Wilfully putting that aside for fanfiful feelgood nonsense, looks a lot like you don't understand confirmation bias, which many would ascribe directly to your intellect.
Load More Replies...This is a lie. "Girl who likes astrology" classifies ANY result of free choice, as typifying of this facet or that within a narcissistic self-aggrandisement framework that gives her an illusion of control. The fact she not only invalidates but overwrites the sentience of her victim, is of course meaningless to her, because that doesn't fit within her cult's ideology.
How would the boy know if the girl likes astrology if she's only breathed?
I'm more curious as to what makes them so dynamite? Very interesting choice for a username...🤔
I don't give away secrets someone else has asked me to take care of. That's like giving away an animal you've agreed to pet sit.
Real. I kinda told my bestie gemini and cancer things and EVERY TIME IT STARTED WITH THAT SCENTENCE!!!
I have a pisces friend who does this. She has however already told a dozen other people. Then when a completely different person mentions it, shocked Pikachu face. Bless her heart
Yup, the Pisces I know could never keep anything to herself. Always would use that secret against me. I stopped confiding in her. She's my mom.

The best answer to someone inside your personal space and yelling is (IMHO) "Whoof, don't you ever brush your teeth?"

If you want to play with astrology knowing is bs because you think it's fun, knock yourself out, but the moment i hear things like "i don't date x sign" or "x sign can't be trusted" i am inevitably going to think that you're a moron.
I don't believe/live my life by astrology, but hilariously, I match like.... 100% of the "stereotypes" about my sign (Pisces.) I DO love reading the horoscopes for my pets and "translating" them into dog/cat "terms". So if the horoscope for one of my dogs says "You will meet an interesting stranger", it's "you will sniff an interesting stranger's butt" instead. If the horoscope for one of my cats says "You will find something long thought lost", it's "your human will find (under the couch) one of your long-lost toys" XD

One of the UK papers, The Sunday Telegraph I think, had an astrologer called Psychic Psmith. His were the only ones I've ever found to be worth reading. Mine one week was something like: "Sagittarius: Ruud Gullit (he is a former football/soccer player) will knock on your door and ask if you know where his car is. Tell him to try his garage. He'll thank you and go away. Lucky washing machine: Bosch.".
The Daily Mash had Psychic Bob, until 2016. My favourite of his, which sums this all up, was something like: "A burning ball of gas billions of miles away is going to affect how your first date goes. Like f**k it is."
Load More Replies...There was a study where a group of people where given a statement for their astrological sign. Something around 90% of the people said it was accurate to them. The twist? they were all given the same statement. They are always so vague that anyone can read it and think "yeah, thats me"
The constellations that make up the zodiacs signs are arbitrary and are no longer in the same place as they were 3000 years when they were devised so no one is in the same sign as they think they are. The original zodiac on which ours was based also had a 13th sign that was simply removed and the signs were of widely unequal lengths of time. One downside to be being the pattern seeking animals we are is that we then ascribe meaning to patterns that have none. A picture you can imagine in the stars is nothing more than that - imaginary. (Stars are real obs but not the pictures we see in them)
Also, different cultures made different shapes, meaning that some stars are in different constellations. It's all line-of-sight anyway - stars in a constellation are at hugely different distances from us.
Load More Replies...I don't believe in it, but my horoscope has been dead right twice. I was in a wheelchair in a hospital and my horoscope said that I had to learn to stand on my own two legs, which was what I was there for. The other time it said I had the change to meet the love of my life. It was for the week when I met my late husband through 34 years. But twice in about 50 years does not really impress me.
I don't know much about astrology however I do think there is something to the time of year you are born having a bit of an effect on personality. A child born late autumn is likely to spend a lot of time in doors for the first few months and go out in to the world slowly while a child born early summer may be out all the time early on then kept in as winter approaches. This could cause differences that get reinforced by those around them. I find it feasible that in parts of the world with definite seasons, early experiences could shape you. I also think in places where diet is largely seasonal, this could have an effect on a newborns behaviour, which could be reinforced by what what people expect of you. My thoughts on this do not hold well when you consider star signs for those in different hemisphere are the same, but I'm not inclined to call complete bs.
