The Zodiacs are based around the Chinese Calender Animals and Signs, which are mainly used for Horoscopes in modern times. Please Note that, unlike the Japanese/Vietnamese version, the Cat is not included in the Chinese Animal Years.
Chinese Signs: (Reference: <link> )
Aquarius-Aquarius, the water-bearer, is noted as the leader of the Zodiac signs, and is one of the more intelligent of signs, since their minds never stop moving. The Aquarius are loyal and make great friends, and can have good or bad judgement, since they never let their emotions get in the way. The Aquarius generally have strong opinions, but don't always have the traits described, since Aquarius is a strange symbol, and none of it's people are ever alike.
Pisces-Pisces, the fish, are said to be both mysterious and talented, though they spend most of life confused. Their symbol, as two fish facing in two opposite directions, is said to represent how they are often torn by two paths in life, and hold two very different personalities within themselves. Pisces is said to be two opposites rolled into one, and see life as they want it to be. They often get themselves into many troubles, and their emotions serve as a weak spot.
Aries-Aries, the ram, is an adventurous sign. They're generally assertive, independent, and outgoing, but they are also very trusting, sometimes too much so. The Aires is regarded as the most physical and aggressive sign, and act before asking questions. They're said to be very stubborn, and have little tolerance to annoyance.
Taurus-Taurus, the bull, is very unlike the other Zodiacs, because, under their calm and composed outside, they are known for being social, but staying away from the crowd. They only let others as close as they want them, and they're said to be extremely stubborn, and as hard to move as a tree. Their feelings run deeper than any would imagine, and, because they hide everything, they're often regarded as boring, dull, or withdrawn. Those of the Taurus sign often don't like change, and usually love nature and animals.
Gemini-Gemini, the twins,are a sign always on the lookout for knowledge and adventure. They often know much of many things, instead of anything of one particular subject, which adds variety to their lives. They're known to be curious and mischievous, and are known to talk quite a bit. They make good writers, and are put down by the other Zodiacs because of their unusual and strange lives.
Cancer-Cancer, the crab, is said to be a moody symbol, kind and compassionate to those close to them, but can take people down with their comments when they need to. On the outside, Cancer can appear to be hard and rough, but on the inside, they actually have a softness that can only be seen by those closest to them, who they open up to. Life changes constantly for those under the sign of Cancer, because their moods and emotions change so rapidly. They usually make decisions and choices based off their emotions. The two most important things to those under the sign of Cancer are money and romance.
Leo- Leo, the lion, is a sign made for love. They're usually good at making friends, and have very positive thinking about things. They're said to have a good sense of humor, and are very loyal and committed in a relationship. They never forgive or forget when someone hurts them, and when it's over for now, it's over for good. They make great leaders, but they have a strong weakness of pride. They also cannot bear to be alone.
Virgo-Virgo, the virgin, is put down often for being narrow minded and whiny. Along with those traits, though, the Virigo is one of the most creative signs, and one of the most confident. The Virigo is generally a very kind sign, and never loses faith in others, though that can get them in bad places sometimes. The Virgo never stays down, though, they'll always get right back up!
Libra-Libra, the scales, are said to be hard to impress in love and romance, and are very good business people, though they try to keep the peace, so they often agree to things they shouldn't. They dream big, and often don't live up to their expectations in life, and they dream of romance often, and only want the best in life.
Scorpio-Scorpio, the Scorpion, is said to be the most powerful sign of the Zodiac. They have intense feelings in relationships, and seem older than their years, because they're wise and almost always know the answers. They all have strong passion, desire, and power, and their greatest conflict is deciding between the power of love and their love of power. They make great companions, but if you get into a fight with them, they never forgive or forget. They're usually winners, and are very good at what they do.
Sagittarius- Sagittarius, the archer, possess the love of life that makes them the most optimistic of the Zodiac signs. They seek out what they want most in life and make sure they make it their own. They're generally good at getting what they want, and never stop until they get it, but it's annoying to those around them how they cannot be tied down, since they love to move constantly. They can make great companions, though, to those who can deal with their need to keep moving. The Sagittarius are very honest and happy, and very achieved in spiritual and intelligent things, but they lack great tactical skill.
Capricorn-Capricorn, the goat, has two sides. One type is like the mountain goat, climbing their mountain and never happy until reaching the top. The other side is the garden goat, happy where they are, and unmoving unless pushed. The Capricorn must balance work and play, since work can easily take over their emotional fulfillment. Capricorns are known for their hard work, and their responsibility.
