What is zodiac personality theory?
Western astrology divides the sky into 12 zodiac constellations based on the date of birth and assigns each one distinctive characteristics. This tradition stretches back thousands of years to ancient Babylon and Greece β it isn't owned by any one person or company, but a piece of popular culture shared by humanity for millennia.
Is there scientific evidence for it?
No. The claim that the position of the stars at your birth shapes your personality has not been validated by modern science. Psychologists often explain zodiac personality theory the same way they explain blood type personality theory β through the "Barnum effect," the tendency to accept vague, broadly applicable descriptions as uniquely true of ourselves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it okay to judge people by their zodiac sign?
We don't recommend it. Using an unscientific belief to evaluate someone, or to make important decisions about them, can lead to unfair bias. Please enjoy this purely as entertainment.
Where does the compatibility information come from?
It's based on the traditional astrological idea that signs sharing the same element tend to get along well β it isn't statistically verified information. Treat it as a fun reference only.
What if my birthday falls right on the border between two signs?
Zodiac date ranges can shift by a day or two from year to year. If you were born near a cusp (for example, March 20-22), it's worth reading the descriptions for both signs.
