Animal Planet
Ever wonder what astrological sign your pet is? Does your tabby act unpredictable like a Gemini? Is your Siamese a “me-first” Aries? Well, that pet of yours may have a personality that is affected by more than their age, breed and environment. Like people, astrology (the position of planets) can play a role in pets’ behavior and may indeed affect the human-animal and animal-ani- mal bond.
If you can determine what sign a pet is, it can help you to learn how to cope with your four-legged compan- ion’s personality traits and will lead to a happier and healthier life for both of you. To find out which sun sign (and other astrological clues) fits your companion ani- mal, tune into the planets.
Sun Signs…
So what exactly is a Sun sign? Simply put, the sun travels around the earth once each year. Within the space of that year the Sun moves through 12 signs of the zodiac (a band of the celestial sphere that symbolizes the plan- ets, moon, and sun). And, it’s the 12 signs of the zodiac which show traits that are key to your pet’s personality.
In astrological terms, the sun is considered a planet. It is also key to your pet’s horoscope (an astrological forecast of a pet’s future based on the planets and stars), and in many ways determines how others see your pet. The position of the Sun in your pet’s birth chart affects his individuality and general character. Is Sammie friendly? Does he cope with stress? Is he high strung or laid-back? The answers may be found in your pet’s Sun sign.
The 12 Sun signs (which may vary within a few days each month according to different astrologers) are divided into four groups: Fire Signs: Aries, Leo and Sagittarius: active and passionate; Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn: practical and secure; Air Signs: Gemini, Libra and Aquarius: intelligent and talkative;Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces: emotional and sensitive.
…And Moon Signs
Each month the New Moon and Full Moon can reflect both you and your pet’s inner desires, emotions and true feelings. And your pet’s Moon sign does this, too, like it does for humans. To find out what your pet’s Moon sign is, you must know what his Sun sign is. Then, you can turn to an astrology book or go online and go to astrological Moon Tables. Just look up the year, month and day your pet was born. For example, if your Brittany was born September 22, 1989 you’ve got decoding its Moon sign in the bag.
While the Sun and Moon play a part in your pet’s per- sonality, so do the planets: Mercury (the mind), Venus (love), Jupiter (great-heartedness), Saturn (discipline), Uranus (individuality), Neptune (sensitivity) and Pluto

(change). What’s more, if you happen to know your pet’s exact birth date you can have a complete astro- logical chart done (just like people do for themselves) to find out how each planet plays a specific role in your pet’s life. An astrologer can do this for you. Or you can do it yourself!
So What’s Your Pet’s Sign?
If you have a pedigree cat or dog you can thank your lucky stars. Because the odds are, that if Fluffy or Fido has papers, the birth date of your pet is already docu- mented for you. If you purchase a purebred dog from a breeder, for example, just look at the Registration Certificate. You’ll find the date above Date of Birth, e.g. Feb. 25, 2005. Then you will know that your dog is a Pisces. But since the most popular of all cats and dogs—a mixed breed-- has no pedigree you may have to play detective in order to find out when your pet was born.
If you end up adopting an animal shelter cat or dog, chances are less likely of finding out your pet’s exact astrological sign. But if the animal is part of a litter (just weaned at six weeks) you can also count back in time. (If it is November 20th go back to October 6th and kiss your Libra pet hello.) The glitch is, plenty of people are clueless about the birth dates of their pets (perhaps because they were strays or adopted as adults at a shelter). The good news is, you can still figure out your pet’s astrological sun sign by knowing the charac- teristics of astrological signs and deciding which traits best fit your animal companion.
Keep in mind, because the fact remains, there are so many variables – from your pet’s Moon sign to Sun Sign, that chances are, pets, like people, have several astrological signs in their chart affecting their per- sonality. So, understanding your pet’s sign is just one more helper to help give you a deeper human-animal connection.
