Do You and Your Pet’s Signs Align?
Chances are you know your Zodiac sign, but have you ever wondered what your pet’s is and if you are compatible? For countless years, people have been studying Astrology and looking to the sky for answers to help them understand events, traits, and personalities. Astrology can help us better connect with our four legged companions and provide insights into our pet’s character, compatibility, and even their limitations. Whether you are a skeptic or a believer, finding out if your pet aligns with their sign could be a fun bonding experience.
What's My Dog's Zodiac Sign?
The twelve Zodiac signs are divided into four groups: fire signs, air signs, water signs, and earth signs. Each of these astrological elements consists of three zodiac signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are fire signs; Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are Earth signs; Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are air signs; and Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are water signs. You can easily determine your pet’s sign if you know their birthday. If you do not know their birthday, you can pick their “gotcha day."
