I’ve always considered myself an Aries, up until the last couple of years, when I was told that I could also be considered a Taurus. This is because my birthday is April 19th, which lands on the last day under the Aries zodiac sign.
I still think of myself an Aries the majority of the time, but I do also check up on all things Taurus as well. Actually, I find that some of my personality traits match better with the Taurus than Aries.

Arians are known for being strong leaders, while Taurians are loyal followers. Arians are hotheaded, and Taurians are level-headed. I could be either, depending on the situations I throw myself into. I’m not really sure what I would categorize myself as, although my birthday does technically fall under the Aries zodiac sign. I’m so conflicted!
I know that a lot of people don’t really believe or follow up with this kind of thing, but I do every now and then, so it’s a little confusing for me. I think I’m just going to continue identifying as an Aries, but consider the Taurus on the side. (Edit: I just realized how weird that sounds. I know that it’s not like my nationality.)
I’m probably going to end up using this as a part of my never-ending existential crises.
Anyway, here is some random, fun information about the two zodiacs.
