We all have a zodiac sign. Sometimes they are accurate, sometimes, not so much. Each is supposed to determine your personality and traits. I am a Capricorn, and it is very accurate for me, but some don’t feel that way. How do you feel about yours?

Professional magician and renowned skeptic, James the Amazing Randi, gave a telling demonstration. He requested that a college classroom of about 20 people submit their astrological signs, and told them that a professional astrologer would prepare their horoscopes. When presented with the results, he asked the class to rate their accuracy on a scale from 1 to 5, 5 being the most accurate. The entire classroom rated their horoscopes either 4 or 5. He then asked each student to swap their horoscope with another student and read it, at which point they found out that all of their horoscopes were identical, and Randi had prepared them himself. Accurate horoscopes? No. Broadly written to appeal to people? Yes.
I’m a Taurus, but I believe that is worthless information from an ancient superstition.

Sagittarius - in certain aspects it seems accurate for me; however, I think any accuracies are due to a tendency to find meaning in coincidental details.

As a libra is half right half wrong for me, but that's how the horoscopes are built. Throw in some generic stuff and hope it sticks. I do admit to wanting things fair and just almost too much and to being clever and kind of a flake, but social? Diplomatic? You have to be effin kidding me. Also not owning up to vain, because I look like a troll and couldn't care less

I'm an Aries. I would say it is 90% accurate. Although I feel the rest is somewhat Pisces. I tend to live in a world of fantasy like a Pisces, but sensitive and hot headed like an Aries.

I’m a scorpio, I think it’s pretty accurate, I am pretty bold, loyal, creative, brave, my spirit colour is black, relentless, I will get super pissed off if you betray me, and I am pretty resilient and strong.

Sagittarius,It is kind of, kind of not accurate. Sagittarius are supposed to be outgoing but I am introverted. The rest perfectly match my personality/behavior.

I was just talking about this with my boyfriend. He's a sagittarius and asked me 'if I thought he was like his sign'. I told him 'he never shuts up so yeah', and asked about me. He said 'Aries are emotional hot heads so yeah'. So I screamed, threw him out the window then cried.
Alright, the last part might not be true, but I don't know. I'm definitely optimistic, an adrenalin junkie, and impulsive, but on the other hand I'm a bit of an introvert. I don't believe we are destined to have the personality of our Zodiac signs. I share some traits, but not all. I'm sure it's like that with most people. I do like to wear an Aries necklace as a reminder when I get down that I have to keep going.

Capricorn. I'm not an astrology person, but I don't think it fits my personality. If it helps, my personality matches Bakugo's from mha. Maybe y'all can figure it out 🤣

I’m a Capricorn with Aries but two witches have told me that I should read Sagittarius. So being this such a true scienceI could be any of them.

I'm a taurus and I've always been proud of it. I am also an earth sign, which I try to embrace (I feel like a fire sign). Funnily enough, my Chinese zodiac is a bull (the animal of taurus) and in Chinese zodiac I am also an earth sign. I suppose I very much am what I am. Double bull, double earth.

disclaimer: i do not actually believe in this stuff
taurus - hmm comfort is fine ig, but the rest isn't accurate... pisces would make more sense, because of the imagination part (my real life is wayyyyyyyyyyy boring)
bonus chinese zodiac
ox - mostly inaccurate, but this part: "their speech is also blunt; they can be unaccustomed to speaking in public, which will make them quite nervous" is right on the mark

You had me until you threw the entirety of mental health into the bin.
