I was born on the 25th of February 1988, so that makes me a Piscean. In terms of Chinese astrology, I was born in the year of the Dragon. So I'm a Dragon as far as Chinese astrology is concerned (an Earth Dragon, to be precise). What's your Western zodiac sign? Feel free to mention your Chinese zodiac sign as well.

Interesting bit of trivia: Ryu from the Street Fighter franchise was born on July 21, 1964. 1964 is a Dragon year (a Wood Dragon year, to be precise). Therefore, Ryu is a Dragon. In fact, the name 'Ryu' even means 'Dragon' in Japanese! Furthermore, one of Ryu's signature abilities is the Shoryuken, which in Japanese means 'Rising Dragon Fist'. Also, in Chinese astrology (and in Chinese culture in general), the Dragon's greatest rival is considered to be the Tiger. The Dragon and the Tiger are eternal rivals. In Chinese martial arts, 'Dragon style' refers to any style of martial arts where movement is emphasised whereas 'Tiger style' refers to any style of martial arts where strength is emphasised. In the Street Fighter franchise, Ryu represents the Dragon whilst Sagat represents the Tiger. The names of all of Sagat's signature abilities have the word 'tiger' in them: 'Tiger Shot', 'Tiger Knee' and 'Tiger Uppercut'. So is it the Dragon or the Tiger that is the King of the beasts? There can ONLY be ONE and it is the Dragon! The Dragon is the KING of ALL of the beasts!!!!!!!!!

720 Signs!
I believe that both the Indian zodiac signs/Western zodiac signs as well as the Chinese zodiac signs are both simultaneously true and equally as valid as each other. 12 signs of the Indian zodiac/Western zodiac x 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac = 144 signs (just in case you needed that maths lesson! ^_~). Now consider that there are 5 different elements in Chinese astrology (which are, in no particular order: earth, wood, metal, fire and water) and therefore 5 different element combinations for each sign of the Chinese zodiac. For example, according to Western tropical astrology, I'm a Piscean whilst according to Chinese astrology, I'm a Dragon. However, I'm not only a Dragon but an Earth Dragon (to be precise). There are 4 other types of Piscean Dragons and they are: Piscean Wood Dragons, Piscean Metal Dragons, Piscean Fire Dragons and Piscean Water Dragons. 144 x 5 = 720 (just in case you needed another maths lesson! ^_^). I believe that 'marrying' our Indian zodiac signs/Western zodiac signs with our Chinese zodiac signs will provide us with a clearer insight into our true identities as eternal sparks of Infinite Consciousness.

Pisces is a dual sign, like Gemini. It is represented by twin fishes, one male fish and one female fish. Hence, Pisces is a dual-gendered sign. The male fish is blue-coloured whilst the female fish is pink-coloured. The male fish and the female fish are DEEPLY in love with each other and are often kissing each other and often having sex with each other. They are inseparable, for the two are one!
Scorpio is represented by THREE creatures instead of just one. These three creatures are the grey lizard, the scorpion and the phoenix. Each of these creatures represents a stage of Scorpio development. Also, each of these creatures dwell on land, but the primary domain of the grey lizard is underground, the primary domain of the scorpion is underwater and the primary domain of the phoenix is in the sky. Grey lizard Scorpios seethe with vengeance but rarely (if ever) manifest their vengeance in a tangible form. They are usually submissive, paranoid and resentful. Also, they tend to have self-harming/suicidal tendencies. Scorpion Scorpios are aggressive, ruthless and fiercely competitive. They are not above exploiting the weaknesses of others for their own advantages. Phoenix (AKA 'fenghuang') Scorpios are the most evolved Scorpios. They are assertive, fearless and compassionate. The fenghuang/phoenix is the KING of ALL of the birds and is also equally the KING of the sky along with the dragon. Scorpios of the phoenix variety have succeeded in putting jealousy and the desire for revenge behind them. They are forgiving, but like all Scorpios, they NEVER forget. Scorpios can manifest the typical traits of the grey lizards, the scorpions and the phoenixes whenever they need to and/or whenever they want to. They can manifest the typical traits of one of these creatures or they can simultaneously manifest the typical traits of two or even all three of these creatures. However, the typical traits of one of these creatures is predominant at any particular time. In a single lifetime, a Scorpio can go from predominantly being a grey lizard to predominantly being a scorpion and to predominantly being a phoenix. On the same token, a Scorpio can go from predominantly being a phoenix to predominantly being a scorpion or even go straight from predominantly being a phoenix to predominantly being a grey lizard. All combinations involving the different stages of Scorpio development are possible, even multiple times in the lifetime of a single Scorpio person. Scorpio is BY FAR the MOST POWERFUL sign of the Indian Zodiac/Western Zodiac.
Also..... Uranus is a higher octave of Mercury, Neptune is a higher octave of Venus and Pluto is a higher octave of Mars.

Pisces is the most mutable, changeable, adaptable, dynamic and scattered sign of the Zodiac (the Indian Zodiac/Western Zodiac, that is). I also believe that Pisces is the most diverse sign of the Zodiac in the sense that we Pisceans can pass ourselves as ANY other sign of the Zodiac with relative ease. We can be schizophrenic and/or have multiple personalities, just like that OTHER Zodiac sign that's represented by two of something instead of just one (Gemini, of course). But these traits are even more prominent with Pisceans than with Geminians because water is the most mutable element and that which water represents (i.e. emotion) is, therefore, correspondingly more mutable than that which air represents (i.e. intellect). In fact, out of emotion (represented by water), intellect (represented by air), sensation (represented by earth) and will (represented by fire), emotion is the most mutable. Pisces is the last of the water signs, the last of the mutable signs, the last of the universal signs and, of course, the last of the 12 signs in general. So is it any wonder that we are utterly, utterly unfathomable? Our depth cannot be penetrated. Our depth is infinite. Pisces has long been symbolised by a pair of intertwined fishes, but what TYPE of fishes? There are not many types of bulls and lions (for example), at least in comparison to fishes. There are almost 28,000 known extant fish species, although that number may grow to exceed 32,500. HUNDREDS of new fish species are discovered EVERY year. There are many trillions and trillions of fishes on Earth. In fact, only insects are more numerous than fishes (and insects are ALSO represented by another water sign - Scorpio). So I think the sheer number of fishes on Earth symbolises the diversity of qualities, appearances, shapes and sizes found among Pisceans.
Some of us are predominantly simple and freedom-loving like goldfishes, some of us are predominantly patient like guppies, some of us are predominantly mesmerising, sophisticated and youthful like angelfishes, some of us are predominantly friendly like clownfishes, some of us are predominantly energetic, complex and independent like electric eels, some of us are predominantly fierce, domineering and powerful like sharks, some of us are predominantly child-like, playful and innocent like dolphins, some of us are predominantly gentle, charismatic and majestic like whales, some of us are predominantly primitive and old like coelecanths, some of us are predominantly enigmatic, otherworldly and unworldly like koi carps etc. We can also change from one type of fish to another. We can go from ancient to modern to futuristic and vice-versa and everything in-between in general. We cannot be pigeonholed.

My birthday is October 13th, so I'm a Libra. I know like a zillion people with October birthdays haha... my female best friend, my boyfriend's grandpa and brother, and my mother. 
I was born in 1990, so my Chinese year is the Horse.
Fun fact: My little brother (thatguywiththecodes on Bulbapedia) was born in 1996, but before Chinese New Year (his birthday is in January), so he's actually considered a boar and not a rat. Cool.
