Hey Pandas, Do You Feel Your Zodiac Sign Has Any Significance On Who You Are As A Person? (Closed)
Do your personality traits reflect the popular traits associated with your sign?

Horoscope for all zodiac signs: Outside of their physical effects, celestial bodies do not affect your life in any way, not today, not ever.
Agreed. It's ridiculous. It's the same as phrenology or any other foolishness. It's all about confirmation bias. People selectively remember moments when it confirmed their belief and conveniently forget all the other times when it did not.
I am Leo and we Leos don not believe in any of this horoscope nonsense.
Nope, it's all BS. I can read the traits of every sign and they could apply to me. Also, the skies have changed since this pap was invented, so the dates don't even line up anymore.
I also don’t believe in it , but I still like to read the horoscope for fun and it’s actually kind of accurate (I’m a Capricorn in case you’re wondering)
Horoscopes can be useful. People who announce their sign [when *no* one asked] lets me know who to avoid at that party, workplace, classroom, etc.
Gemini here...maybe yes, maybe no.
I am a Leo. Born in the Year of the Tiger. In Mayan and Aztec culture I am a Jaguar. My Native American totems are Mountain Lion and Lynx.
I attended two high schools, both with Panthers mascots.
I am Mom to 12 rescue cats.
So, yeah. I really am a Leo
Holy c**p, I just did my Mayan one for a laugh and it's 100% me. TBF I'm Leo, Fire Snake, and now I'm apparently a Serpent / Eagle (day / "month" signs)... I personally do believe in astrology, I don't find other signs are quite so right a fit for me, but I also think it's a power of the mind, it's real for me *because* I believe. Plus it's fun and doesn't hurt anyone unlike some other hobbies!
I think if people think it does, it will. And if they don’t, it won’t
THIS. This, I believe, is the most truthful and intelligent answer to this question. If a person believes something is happening astrologically, they'll notice it more.
i use it as a awy to ward people off that are way to much into it.. if i say scorpio.. most of them are gone.. soo it kínda has sigificance i guess xD
I’m a Libra. People think we are calm and perfectly balanced just like the scales ⚖️ that represent our star sign. The truth is those scales go up and down, sometimes irrationally 10 to 20 times a week! Calm? Scales dipping towards that…wait for it! BOOM! The Libra scales can swing back the other way in a heartbeat.
Quite simply, no.
All this "horoscope" "zodiac sign" stuff is total bs. sure, believe what you will, but there is zero scientific basis and zero proof.
That's my take on this topic.
oh f**k no. no way. I don't even begin to have anything in common with mine (Capricorn)
not in the modern interpretations and use of :,horoscope" fortune telling no, but I believe your birth chart is s valuable tool for understanding certain things about yourself on the path through life
Very true. I have found mine helpful. Of course, natal charts are just one form of chart. Horary astrology for instance is about looking at the influences of certain times.
In fact as the stars have moved considerably since it was invented you are not the star sign you think you are.
And divide 9 billion people into 12 categories. Really?
My main Sun sign? For the most part, but there's a lot more to the Zodiac than just Sun signs. If you use a free online website, you can actually calculate your ENTIRE "birth chart". There's your Sun sign, Moon sign, Rising sign, etc.
Calculating it in full takes into account ALL of the signs and what their position was, the meaning, etc. So if you don't readily identify with your Sun sign, sometimes you can get really surprising and accurate results by looking at the entire chart.
It can get even more confusing though if you're a "cusp" baby, born very close to the next sign. For example if you were born on March 20, that's the last day of Pisces. Aries starts on the 21st, so you're a "cusp" baby and could more to Aries instead of Pisces.
All of the extra calculations in your birth chart can have multiple "cusps" too so it can all get quite complicated.
It's just something fun, I guess.
I'm a Cancer, and a bit of a crybaby. Any strong emotion and there will be tears. But don't take that as weakness, i can and will fight back if need be. Crabs have pincers after all :)
Yeah. Im a gemini and I honestly can tell. I am bipolar as hell with everything. You never know which side of me you're going to get intil you get it.
I'm Aquarius. For the longest time I thought Aquarius was the artistic sign, but then I saw it's Pisces that's artistic and Aquarius is the humanitarian sign. Although I have a lot of empathy and care about people and animals, I think a lot of people born in various times of year can be humanitarians and artists.
Lol. Only time I reference my zodiac is when I’m being annoying to my family. If one of them gets on me about being stubborn over something, I just tell them it’s in my nature as a Capricorn. I mean, mermaid goat climbing a mountain - gotta be pretty stubborn.
I'd love to tell you I'm into horoscopes but I'm part of the control group.
Every horoscope ever said, written or uttered is a Barnum statement.
No. The only effect it has is (a. Feeling annoyed because libra is the only star sign that’s an inanimate object and (b. Feeling slightly smug at the start of Good Omens when they say earth is a Libra.
Personally I kinda do and kinda of don't because I'm a Scorpio and the personality of a Scorpio matches mine but I have heard that Libras and Scorpios don't get along. My cousin is a Libra and we get along just fine. I don't know. I just do horoscopes for fum at this point.
I’m a Libra and I don’t believe some of the things they tell people about us. Some people think they’re not funny, which I don’t believe. Or that they are just sunshine and rainbows. However, a lot of my family lives up to their sign’s personality. My dad is a Taurus and if you go into his house, you come out with a hundred extra pounds. Long story short, yes and no.
1. I was in the plant section of a big box store, looking for tips on caring for my spider plant. Struck up a conversation with a fellow shopper who knew a lot about plants. Me to her: "Are you a Taurus?" She replied, "Yes!! How did you know?"
2. Years ago, while on vacation, I met a woman and we chatted. She said how much she loves to work. I asked her if she was a Capricorn. Indeed, she was.
3. Nurse came over several months ago to assess my husband for services. She was talkative, funny, and had a great vocabulary. I asked her if she was a Gemini. Indeed, she was.
4. We have an aide who constantly interrupts...won't shut up...talks over you. I looked up his birth info and yup....as I suspected...mercury in Aries. (Mercury, planet of communication; Aries...always want to be first)
Sun signs are a VERY small part of astrology. It's a LOT more complex than that.
So very true! All the negative comments so far are based on zero knowledge of what astrology really is.
I'm a scorpio. And anytime I don't get along with someone at some point it turns out to be a leo.
Virgo here. Significance? No, however, the descriptive traits and behaviors of Virgos does match with a vast majority of myself. But I wouldn't say my sign is a cause and effect of WHO I am. Just an odd coincidence.
As a Gemini, yeah. One second I could be crying and sad and then the next I'm laughing and giggly
I mean, not really. Like, I've read some of the traits for Virgos and some apply, but it doesn't really affect my life.
Astrology is fun, but I don't believe in it, but i do have alot of the traits of an Aries. I'm impulsive, optimistic, energetic. I also have a temper, but when I do bug out I usually get over it quickly. I have ptsd and anxiety, sometimes it's hard to do just basic things. I've have come a long way. I wear an Aries necklace as a reminder to stay strong when things get bad. To motivate myself. So, while I don't think astrology is legit, but my personality is similar to my Zodiac sign.
I think astrology and horoscopes get a lot of hate. Yeah, they aren’t real, but they can be fun. I’m a virgo and I very much feel like the description matches my personality. It’s fun to imagine that that coincidence is some sort of magic.
NO NOT AT ALL. I'm a Libra and yes some of the trats are similar to a stereo typical Libra like being hot AF 😩 but I'm a short angry mother f****r and will kill you if you make fun of me or my friends.
Kind of. Capricorn. Stubborn, opinionated, fair if grudgingly. She bear about family. Firm believer that "if you're gonna be stupid, you gotta be tough". Oh, and jowls. Think Richard Nixon. Those are capricorn jowls.
In fact as the stars have moved considerably since it was invented you are not the star sign you think you are.
And divide 9 billion people into 12 categories. Really?
I am a Tarus and my friend is a Capricorn and we are different, not like celestial-ery different. Ok, what I’m trying to say is that zodiac signs don’t affect who you are and what you can do, just be yourself.
I am a sun sign Taurus, moon sign Taurus, born in the Year of the Ox. So, yes, it IS somewhat difficult to motivate myself out of a rut! It's been a lifelong struggle, but I keep at it and don't give up improving that. Persistence...yep. Another trait that fits. (I am not stubborn though!). But I do love good food, good wine and good company and *wish* I could afford the kind of luxury my Taurean self gravitates toward. Luckily I don't give in to that or I'd be dead frickin' broke.
So I guess persistence and perseverance were traits you wanted to work on in this life. Sounds like you are making progress!
Basically, I am curious how much stock do you put in to horoscopes and astrology?
The Pisces in my life is the exact opposite of a typical Pisces. I even asked him if he was born premature or delivered late, or possibly even adopted lol... As for me, I am the exact definition of my sign, Virgo.
I'm Aries- but heck no. Every description I've read on each zodiac is either vague or has a wide variety of traits to be sure that everyone can fit in them. Besides, the date of your birth is almost completely determined by the date of your inception, so why do we use the birthday for the sign? And, if zodiacs were a thing, why are twins different? How can the rotation of a planet that has been rotating for millions of years have any sort of effect on the personality changes of the people, who only started showing up in the last chapter of the planets life?
Astrology works on the time and place you first took an independent breath in this life.
Absolutely not. The date I was born gives me the same traits as a twelfth of the population? I think we are all a lot more unique and diverse (which is fantastic.)
I have studied astrology for over 40 years. I KNOW there is absolute validity to the science. Plus there have been statistically studies showing there is a correlation between certain aspects in one's natal chart.
So there.
None whatsoever. I was born on the "cusp" between two different signs and don't really resemble the description for either one.
Which one. If its the chinese zodiac then its ox. If its the leo-cancer thinfey thwn irs germini.
Chinese astrology is also more complex than just noting the year you were born. It goes down into month, day, hour and more.
I mean capricorns are nown to study hard and my best friend is one and im a picies and I don't shut up so I do
I hate astrology.
I love to take quizzes that tell me my star sign; because, they are always wrong.
I thing astrology is bull c**p, because just because I’m born in summer doesn’t mean I have a big d**k or something!
In conclusion: the answer to your question is a big f*****g “NO”!
I totally believe it, absolutely.
But I’m a Scorpio and we’re liars so yeah
I read my horoscope every day.
The description for my sign is of someone who is adventurous, loves to travel, fearless. I’m afraid of everything and I rarely leave the county I live in, nor do I want to. So.. there’s that.
My sign suits me very well and a lot of others wouldn't at all.
While I know it isnt scientific, i can relate to my birth sign much more than most others. I find it fun to see different description versions.
YES, the different constellations have an influence. I am a Libra and so swaying
Nope also I haven't seen a Sagittarius yet so hello
It's so weird. I've met a lot of assholes. There are rapists and murderers. But I've never read one description of an astrological sign that mentions an unstoppable urge to kill! Seriously, just read all of them! They all describe positive things innate to every human being. Why in hell would it matter where a star was on the moment you were born?
It's more complex than one's sun sign. However, someone crunched some numbers and came up with a list. The Zodiac Sign Most Likely to Be a Serial Killer, Astrologers Warn Capricorn. Calculated and obsessive, Capricorns will stop at nothing to achieve their goal. ... Cancer. Sensitive cancers find regulating their emotions a difficult task. ... Gemini. ... Scorpio. ... Sagittarius. ... Pisces.

I'm right on the cusp of Leo and Virgo. I have found some character traits that have been ascribed to both of those signs. But I'm also Year of the Rat and I'm more like that.
