Which Harry Potter Character You Are, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
If you’re into astrology, you probably appreciate magic, and you may be a big fan of the famous Harry Potter series. Each zodiac sign has a uniquely magical personality that matches a particular Harry Potter character. Are you fast-talking and analytical, like Draco Malfoy? Or are you quirky and innovative, like Luna Lovegood? Here’s which Harry Potter character represents you, according to your zodiac sign.
Aries: Fred and George Weasley
Fred and George Weasley portray the quintessential Aries traits: they are boisterous, athletic, and brave. The twins are also mischievous pranksters, and the fandom even says they were born on April 1st, a.k.a. April Fools’ Day! Although they are exceptionally close to each other, they’re independent of everyone else – leaving school early (and terrorizing Dolores Umbridge with fireworks on their way out) to launch a successful joke shop business is such an Aries move!
Taurus: Ron Weasley
Although canonically Ron Weasley is a Pisces (born on March 1st), his Taurus qualities are impossible to ignore. Taurus is one of the earth signs, which are known for being stable and steady. Ron is a reliable and trustworthy friend to Harry for almost the entire series, providing comfort and comedic relief when needed. He also turns into a bit of a diva if he has to go too long without food or a good night’s rest – typical Taurus.
Gemini: Draco Malfoy
Gemini is represented by the twins, revealing that Geminis are multi-faceted and, at their worst, two-faced. They are also expressive and have sharp, analytical minds. Malfoy is always quick with a nasty comeback, showing his Gemini wit. He also struggled with wanting to fulfill Voldemort’s orders and his family’s expectations, despite knowing it went against what he knew in his heart was right – a perfect example of the complex Gemini mind.
Cancer: Professor Remus Lupin
Cancer is guided by the moon, so what better Harry Potter character to represent this zodiac sign than a werewolf? Cancers are especially attuned to the phases and position of the moon, just like Lupin. They are also romantic, sensitive, and protective – qualities that Lupin portrayed when he initially resisted a relationship with Nymphadora Tonks because he didn’t think he was good enough for her.
Leo: Harry Potter
This one’s obvious – after all, nearly every Harry Potter book begins with Harry celebrating his birthday on July 31st! He also exhibits many of the typical Leo personality traits: courageous, headstrong, stubborn, and fiercely loyal. Harry has a huge heart and cares deeply for those he loves, classic qualities of any Leo.
Virgo: Hermione Granger
Canonically, Hermione’s birthday falls on September 19th, making her a Virgo zodiac sign. Virgo is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and intellect. Is it any wonder that Hermione couldn’t keep from raising her hand at every question asked in class? Virgos are remarkably intelligent and may offer advice and criticism, even when it’s not asked for. They are often accused of being know-it-alls – Hermione couldn’t be more of a Virgo if she tried.
Libra: Dobby the House Elf
Libra is one of the most popular and well-liked signs of the zodiac. Dobby is a Harry Potter character almost universally adored by the fandom, befitting the typical Libra personality. Most Libras are also obsessed with shopping and love adorning themselves with nice things. Dobby’s love of clothing is one of his standout personality traits, making him a perfect match for the Libra zodiac sign.
Scorpio: Professor Severus Snape
Scorpio is a chronically misunderstood zodiac sign, much like Severus Snape, the professor who was believed to be a villain for most of the Harry Potter series. Scorpios tend to be maligned in the astrology world because they are dark and mysterious. But deep down, they have soft, tender hearts, and would do anything for their loved ones, just like Snape risked it all for his undying love of Lily Evans.
Sagittarius: Professor Minerva McGonagall
Sagittarius is the zodiac sign ruled by Jupiter, the planet of growth, philosophy, and higher education. Sagittarians are courageous, curious, and intelligent, and they make excellent teachers. McGonagall is arguably one of the best professors in the Harry Potter series, and she showcased her bravery in the Battle of Hogwarts. She defended the castle and went to great lengths to keep her students safe, as any true Sagittarius would.
Capricorn: Headmaster Albus Dumbledore
Capricorn is known as “the father of the zodiac,” and there is no greater paternal figure in the Harry Potter world than Albus Dumbledore. He not only fulfills a fatherly role for Harry but also for all of the Hogwarts students. Capricorn is the most ambitious and hard-working zodiac sign, qualities that Dumbledore certainly exhibits. He even gave his life in pursuit of defeating Voldemort and carefully masterminded his own death to be as constructive as possible.
Aquarius: Luna Lovegood
Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet of innovation and rebellion. Luna is perhaps the quirkiest Harry Potter character – she always marches to the beat of her own drum, making her the quintessential Aquarius. She is never afraid to stand up for what she believes in, no matter how much ridicule she receives from her peers. Luna is bold and wise beyond her years, befitting this eccentric and independent zodiac sign.
Pisces: Neville Longbottom
Neville’s green thumb might make you think he’s an earth sign, but don’t be fooled – the Hogwarts student responsible for destroying Voldemort’s snake (and Horcrux) has got to be a Pisces. To be completely accurate, he shares Harry’s birthday in the books, so he’s technically a Leo – but his personality screams Pisces.
He is sweet and daydreamy, which is why he gets along so well with Luna Lovegood. Neville is sensitive and insecure, yet secretly very powerful. He goes along with the flow, not wanting to stand out too much from the crowd – but he’ll step up to leadership positions when needed, like taking over Dumbledore’s Army while Harry was away hunting Horcruxes. All of these qualities make Neville a Pisces king, even though his birthday doesn’t reflect it – perhaps he has a Pisces moon or rising.
