There are two kinds of people in the world: people who are open about their fascination with their astrological sign and people who pretend they think it’s stupid but love to hear what small finger tattoo they should get based on their sign. For years, I was the latter. But after a while, it became clear to me that anyone who can’t resist clickbait articles with the title "Which 'Game of Thrones' Hottie Should You Marry Based On Your Sign" needed to just suck it up and stop pretending not to care. I understand, logically, that the stars do not dictate whether or not I’ll get a promotion, but it’s just so romantic to think that they could. Also, I realize that no two websites that claim to really understand the signs and have perfect explanations of all of them will ever agree on everything, so I just chose one and based everything on that. You’re going to love it. So if you’re the kind of person who pretends not to care, but clicked on this article anyway, I highly recommend converting. It makes things so much easier.

 

Aries (March 21st – April 19th): April Ludgate

 

A fire sign, symbolized by the Ram and ruled by Mars, a person who is an Aries focuses on the things that give them a thrill and are secretly very well suited to lead the way. You know what gives April a thrill?

 

 

 

Taurus (April 20th – May 20th): Shauna Malwae-Tweep

 

Ruled by Venus, all a Taurus wants is a happy and secure life and marriage. Sound like anyone we know?

 

Gemini (May 21st – June 20th): Donna Meagle

 

The twins—with an intense mental energy, a Gemini is always looking to get ahead of the crowd and to explore a little bit of, well, everything. Donna Meagle pretty much has that covered already, but she’s still going. She’s honestly got us all beat.

 

 

 

Cancer (June 21st – July 22nd): Ann Perkins

 

A little bit moody, Cancers really just want constant reassurance and love and to feel safe all around. While the Ann Perkins that dated Andy was always in control, the post-Andy Ann Perkins we know and love lived life a little more fluid (appropriate for this water sign), and needed a little extra help to get through the day.

 

 

Leo (July 23rd – August 22nd): Tom Haverford

 

Ruled by the hot-burning Sun, a Leo’s goal is simple: to be a star. If this isn’t Tom Haverford, no sign is.

 

 

Virgo (August 23rd – September 22nd): Jerry Gergich

 

This sign is Jerry to a T. Virgos always strive to do the right thing, they are compassionate and caring, and they just want to love and be loved. Plus, the symbol is the Virgin. While we know that Jerry’s daughters had to come from somewhere, if we interpret it less literally, the Virgin is a symbol of purity. And there is no one purer than Gary Jerry Larry Terry Garry Gengurch Gergich.

 

 

 

Libra (September 23rd – October 22nd): Ron Swanson

 

A sign that values consistency, ease, and simplicity, there is no man simpler (in taste, not mental capacity) than Ron Swanson.

  

 

Scorpio (October 23rd – November 21st): Councilman Jeremy Jamm

 

Scorpios are ruled by Pluto, which isn’t even technically a planet any more (RIP), and symbolized by the Scorpion, which not only seems appropriate to those of us who understand Councilman Jamm, but which would probably please Jamm greatly. They’re also intent on triumph, which I assume applies both to physical combat and battles for a private bathroom.

 

Sagittarius (November 22nd – December 21st): Leslie Knope

 

A fire symbol ruled by Jupiter, king amongst the planets, a Sagittarius is looking to live the good life and make a difference in this world. If you think there is someone who is more fiery in these ways than Leslie Knope, please sit down. You’re wrong.

 

Capricorn (December 22nd – January 19th): Andy Dwyer

 

All of the other signs have such cool symbols: the twins, the scale, the virgin, the lion. Then there’s Capricorn, symbolized by a goat. But who better to represent Capricorns, a group of people who just want to admired and loved, who want someone to feel proud, and who have a powerful resilient energy, than Andy Dwyer?

 

Aquarius (January 20th – February 18th): Chris Traeger

 

An Aquarius loves to be unique and original. They have a high level of energy, and they’re always looking to figure out life’s mysteries. There is literally no Parks and Recreation character more unique, curious, and energetic than Chris Traeger.

 

 

Pisces (February 19th – March 20th): Jean Ralphio Saperstein

 

Always looking to live their dreams and turn fantasy into reality, a Pisces has erratic energy levels and hates to feel alone. Also, the Pisces’ stone is the bloodstone, which is considered to be the most beautiful of the Jaspers. Its energy is pure like blood and holds vitality, strength, passion, and courage. If you saw my earlier article regarding why Jean Ralphio is the best, you’ll know why I believe this fits him so well. There's not a really great gif for this, but there are 40 of them here if you're curious!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
