Sailor Moon’s Sailor Scouts help her fight evil with their own powers that draw their powers from the planets they come from.

With Mercury as the ruling planet, it’s no surprise that Ami Mizuno’s zodiac sign is Virgo. Unsurprisingly, his personality matches this sign almost perfectly. Virgos are the brains of the astrological world. They are resourceful, analytical and can often be described as a walking encyclopedia. Considered the smartest of the scouts, this fits Ami perfectly.

Virgos also have a reputation for making lists and keeping their friends organized, whether they like it or not. Throughout the series, Ami is always the one who cares the most about school and grades and makes sure to keep everyone on track. She always has a plan and is the first to lend a hand to the other girls. That said, Ami is practically the complete embodiment of the Virgo sign. The only aspect that doesn’t quite fit his character is that Virgo’s element is earth, while his is water.

9 Sailor Venus does justice to Libra

With the planet Venus ruling Libra, Sailor Venus’ sun sign makes perfect sense

Libra is represented by the scales, as is the symbolic Lady Justice herself. It is therefore fitting that Sailor Venus, who is the Sailor Scout of Love and Justice, is a Libra. Born on October 22, she arrives at the very end of Libra season. Just like Geminis, Libras are social butterflies. Charming and extroverted, they tend to make friends and resolve conflicts easily. Minako fits these traits perfectly. In fact, his strongest personality point is his cheerful and sociable attitude.

Unsurprisingly, Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, so it’s a perfect match for Minako. His Libra traits also come in handy as the official leader of the Inner Scouts. Her skills as a mediator make her the go-to person when problems arise within the group, and she often resolves conflicts between the girls, both on the battlefield and in their civilian lives.

8 Sailor Mars beautifully symbolizes Aries energy

Sailor Mars from the anime fits the profile well, but her manga counterpart doesn’t fit

Ruled by the planet Mars and represented by the element fire, there is no better zodiac sign for Sailor Mars herself than Aries. People born under Aries are bold, powerful, and creative, which describes Rei Hino perfectly. Aries is confident, passionate and hot-tempered. They tend to like being the center of attention. These traits match Rei very well as she is portrayed in the 90s anime adaptation. However, they don’t quite match her manga counterpart.

However, Rei still embodies her zodiac sign very well, even in the manga. She is brilliant and innovative, often thinking outside the box when facing a tough enemy.

A few Sailor Moon However, the zodiac signs don’t quite match their character and Makoto isn’t exactly Sagittarius material.. People born under the sign of Sagittarius are often seen as blunt and impulsive, which couldn’t be further from Makoto. However, Sagittarius is also described as being friendly and inviting, which suits him very well.

Interestingly, when astrology was born, Jupiter was the ruling planet of two signs: Sagittarius and Pisces. Pisces are often considered romantic dreamers, and their kindness and compassion are some of their best traits. Despite Makoto’s tough exterior, she is actually the gentlest of the Inner Scouts, as well as a hopeless romantic. That being said, Pisces might have been a better fit for him in the long run.

6 Sailor Saturn sums up Capricorn’s dedication

Sailor Saturn’s dedication and drive to act make her a perfect Capricorn

Born on January 6, Hotaru Tomoe – also known as Sailor Saturn – falls under the sign of Capricorn. Ruled by the planet Saturn, Capricorn aligns well with Hotaru. Capricorns are known for their dedication and diligence, as well as their tendency to take initiative. Although the audience doesn’t spend as much time with Hotaru as the other Sailor Scouts, she certainly seems to fit the bill.

Hotaru is extremely devoted to the people she cares about, even going so far as to sacrifice herself to save Chibiusa’s soul. When Sailor Saturn wakes up, she immediately takes initiative, ready to end any conflict herself – which is part of what makes this Sailor Scout so dangerous. Despite her young age, Hotaru is incredibly responsible and wise beyond her years, a trait that perfectly encapsulates the Capricorn sign.

The Sailor Scouts have grown and changed throughout Sailor Moon, and each of them has developed new techniques along the way – but which one is the strongest?

With her birthdate only a few weeks after Hotaru’s, Haruka Tenou’s birthday falls on January 27, making her an Aquarius. Sailor Uranus is not in the category of Sailor Scouts which symbolize the ancient ruling planets in astrology. This is because Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were not known to ancient astronomers as planetary objects. As such, Haruka doesn’t completely fit her sign, although she embodies a few key traits.

Aquarians tend to be the most unconventional signs of the zodiac. This is reminiscent of Sailor Uranus, who uses a sword in battle despite her magical powers. Aquarians develop revolutionary ideas and tend to be incredibly independent, which describes Haruka quite well. People born under Aquarius are strong and self-sufficient, but at the same time very loyal. Despite her unorthodox methods, Sailor Uranus is undoubtedly a loyal member of the team, willing to sacrifice her life to protect Sailor Moon and the others.

4 Sailor Neptune is an accurate representation of Pisces

Pisces’ sense of danger combined with the depth with which they feel things perfectly represents Sailor Neptune

As Sailor Neptune celebrates her birthday on March 6, Michiru Kaiou is the water sign Pisces. It’s fitting that Neptune, named after the god of the ocean, and Michiru, with her love of swimming, fall under this sign. Dreamy, romantic and very in tune with their emotions, Pisces are incredibly passionate and thoughtful. Michiru may seem cold or even snobbish at first glance, but she actually fits these characteristics perfectly. She is kind and patient, and although her character is often shrouded in mystery, she feels things very deeply.

Pisces is often considered the most spiritual sign of the zodiac, open to the possibilities of the unknown. This corresponds to Michiru’s prophetic dreams and her ability to sense when danger threatens the Sailor Scouts. She also shares Pisces creativity with her love of music and art. Overall, she is a shining example of Pisces, her calm and loving demeanor bringing much-needed balance to the team.

3 Sailor Pluto matches Scorpio’s strong loyalty and tendency to keep secrets

Intuitive and supportive are two other traits that link Sailor Pluto to her Sun sign Scorpio

Born at the start of the season, Sailor Pluto falls under the sign of Scorpio. One of the most complex zodiac signs, Scorpio is considered ambitious, intuitive, and even a little obsessive. At first glance, Setsuna looks nothing like a classic Scorpio. However, it embodies much of the spirit of the sign as we analyze it. In her civilian form, Setsuna is a bright and successful young woman, whose hardworking nature definitely exudes ambition.

She undoubtedly also has strong intuition and is therefore often a pillar of support for younger scouts. Additionally, Scorpios are incredibly loyal and willing to take a secret to the grave if necessary. Pluto has shown the greatest loyalty of all the Scouts in this regard, especially given her position as guardian of the space-time gate.

Leos are often the life of the party with their charming personalities, which could explain why many characters have a crush on Mamoru. in the series as a whole.

Generous, confident and stubborn, Leos will fight to the end for those they love. They are generous and strong, not to mention born leaders. Mamoru embodies this well, often going to great lengths to help Usagi and the others.

1 Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon represent the thoughtfulness of Cancer

Usagi and Chibiusa are both emotionally sensitive and deeply passionate, as Cancer should be

Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon are unique among their teammates. Chibiusa is Usagi’s daughter from the future and they share a birthday on June 30, which makes them both Cancers – the astrological sign ruled by the Moon. Cancers, like the crab that symbolizes them, can produce a hard exterior when they feel threatened, but they have a soft center. Usagi and Chibiusa feel things deeply and are the best friends anyone could ask for. Loyal and willing to offer love and forgiveness first, it’s no wonder their friends look to them for leadership.

One of the most emotional signs, Cancers are very sensitive and passionate. Both Usagi and Chibiusa display incredibly powerful emotions throughout the series, and while their personalities often clash, they are more similar than they think that way. Cancers often have the weight of the world on their shoulders as they try to tackle each other’s problems, a trait that fits perfectly with this mother-daughter duo.
