Characters From Gay Cartoons as Zodiac Signs (by Someone Who Only Knows Astrology From Instagram Memes)

I don’t know much about astrology, but most of my good friends are really into astrology, so I’ve been trying to learn at my own pace in the way that everyone learns things these days — by looking at memes on Instagram. What I do know a lot about is TV, especially gay TV, especially-especially animated gay TV, and so lately when I’ve been watching my favorite cartoons I’ve been meme-ing them in my head. How’d I do?

  1. Well I can’t speak to any of the others but I’m a Scorpio and feel very called out by this. (It’s actually doubly accurate because Catra’s canon birthday is October 28th!)

    • Agreed. Also is there some rule about Scorpios not getting along very well, because Catra made me sneeze in derision a lot during the first season.

  3. So relieved there is finally content targeted at my level of astrology knowledge, which is absolutely zero.

  4. As a Capricorn, this was basically the first time I haven’t been insulted/forgotten by astrology memes thank you.

  5. No one has ever gone so deep with Aquarius. This is wonderful but also deeply upsetting LOL.
