Pick a doper of your choice and guess what their astrological sign is. If you’re feeling really daring, guess the chinese year too. [disclaimer] I know astrology has been successfully debunked here. I am still amazed at how close I come to the descriptions of my sign and year. This is just for fun. I don’t take it seriously. [/disclaimer] Then the doper who got named should come in and reveal the true answer. In a perfect world anyway . . . Anyone care to guess mine? DaLovin’ Dj ---

Libra, or Capricorn for **DaLovin**. I’d like to venture Aquarius for **ShibbOleth**. I’m probably wrong, but oh well. ---

I don’t know all the signs characters. I only know the signs of people in my family. I think Scylla is a Leo. Esprix is a Gemini or a Scorpio. ---

Well, I’d say **Speaker for the Dead** is a Scorpio…but I’m probably way off. Well that’s my only guess for now 🙂 ---

I’ve revealed my birthdate here several times, most recently just a day or two ago, so it would be pointless to challenge any of you to try to guess my sign, unless you swore not to search on it first. That said, every time I meet someone who believes in astrology and they want to know my sign, I make them guess. They never guess right, even if they’ve observed representative samples of my personality. They usually guess four or five different (wrong) signs before giving up. Then I tell them, and they invariably say “Well, of course! I can totally see that!” If I could pick my own sign, it would be “Severe Tire Damage.” ---

I believe Esprix is an Aries. But that wasn’t my original thought. I will say my wager is tracer is a taurus.(so obvious)… ---

**Esprix** looks like a Leo. I honestly don’t have a clue what the personality types for the different signs are. What do I seem like? I didn’t even know my sign until I was about 15. Then I snorted at the silliness of it all. Now, the Chinese Zodiac, finding out what I am there, pfft isn’t that just wonderfully complimentary… ---

“Merge Ahead”. Or at least I WANT that to be my sign, eh, **TruePisces**? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-fellow-dopers-signs/84687.md?page=2)
