13 Things All Girls Obsessed With Astrology Can Relate To
1. You really identify with your sign's traits.
It's just eerie how accurate it is. You got the chills the first time you realized how perfectly your sign describes you.
2. You even embrace your sign's less-than-flattering characteristics.
You know what? Yeah, I'm a classic stubborn Taurus, and that's fine. I know my stubborn streak sometimes gets on people's nerves, but it's just part of who I am. (It also means if I want to watch The Notebook and it's not currently on Netflix, I'm deeply committed to searching a minimum of 600 sketchy movie sites to find a stream that works.)
3. When you meet other people who share your sign, it's like meeting a long-lost family member.
It's not quite like meeting a twin, since your rising signs and moon signs influence your sun sign, which make no two Libras or two Capricorns exactly alike. It's more like meeting a distant cousin who also knows that weird story about Great-Uncle Larry and has your same nose. You just ~get each other~ without any effort.
4. You sneakily try to find out when your crush's birthday is.
*instantly Googles "Aries + Sagittarius compatibility"* (Great match, btw.)
5. If your crush isn't an ideal match for you, you're kind of bummed.
Even though you know that two signs that aren't textbook compatible for each other can still have crazy chemistry. (Right?!)
6. Whenever your friend gets on your nerves, you chalk it up to her sign.
You know she's a good person deep down, so you don't really want to blame her for her annoying behavior. So when she flakes on your plans to go to the mall at the last minute again, you decide she can't help it. She's a Pisces. It's bound to happen, right?
7. You know all your fave celebs' signs.
Kylie Jenner's a Leo, Taylor Swift's a Sagittarius, Zendaya's a Virgo, and Gigi Hadid's a Taurus.
8. Mercury in retrograde is the bane of your existence.
Somehow your math teacher was not impressed when you tried to talk your way out of a bad test grade with, "But Mercury is in retrograde, it's not my fault!"
9. You check your horoscope in every magazine.
It's the first page you flip to.
10. You've planned major life events around your horoscope.
I mean, if you're going to tell your crush you like them anyway, you might as well do it when Venus is around to give you an extra boost. You'd rather be safe than sorry.
11. You're addicted to Tumblr astrology memes.
They're the best part of your dash.
12. It's seriously annoying when people mock your interest.
Astrology has been studied around the world for the past four millennia, but sure, bro, whatever, make your dumb jokes about "pseudo-science."
13. You secretly know your sign is the best one.
Obviously.
