Kif - Virgo (no, it's not a joke. He just reminds me too much of myself for it to be possible).
Also according to the "Do you & Leela match?" section of TLZ, Leela is Aries (although the calendars hint that she is Capricorn). I like the Aries possibility better, as Virgo and Aries make up for very good relationships, both professional and in private.

Cancer is Latin for lobster. Could it be more obvious?

Jan 18th or something like that, which makes her a Capricorn. (I'd know, I've dated *5* of 'em. lolz) And she can't be an Aries because she's nothing like an Aries. If anything, *Bender* is mostly like an Aries. I know this because I'm an Aries, lol, and my best friend says I act like Bender most of the time 'cos I'm very opinionated and outspoken. >< Plus Aries' are very impatient, outspoken, spontaneous, impulsive, etc. and Leela isn't really those things! I also agree with Kif being a Pisces. They're shy and kind of reserved. They're also emotional, so say the little horoscopes. :P

Since I don't believe in astrology, I don't have much knowledge about this. I'm relying heavily on The futuramaOutlet zodiacs. About Leela. This is what the Outlet say: Like Leela, you are a Dynamic Person. You have traits of Courage, confidence, quick-wits, and an aggressive self-assertiveness. At times you can be combative when blocked or denied. Aries have been known to be quick-tempered and have qualities of a dare devil at times. Also like Leela you have pronounced leadership ability and a compassion for those that follow. Seems to fit nicely. Leela's birthday is listed as February 19th in the calendars, only because it coincides with Katey Segal's birthday. Wether it's canon, is an entirely different thing. I still like to think off Leela as a Aries. I'm inclined to agree on Kif (mainly because the Outlet labels him Pisces too). I just seemed to share so many traits with the little guy, competent (hrrm hrrm), works better in the background, organized, diplomatic, a bit of a push-ower etc., that it seemed logic that he would be Virgo as well.

Prowla, I disagree. Leo's aren't supposed to be heartless or whatever. I study zodiac signs sometimes, plus I had a Leo crushing over me. They're actually big sweeties deep down. They're also a little possessive, but that's just their nature. They tend to be possessive of what they love. If anything, Bender is closest to an Aries: Impatient, stubborn, selfish, greedy, possessive, etc. Although, not all Aries are those things ('cos I'm certainly not) but according to astrology those are some traits. BTW, Aries are also impulsive and witty, which is what Bender is.
Yay!!~ I thought Fry was a Taurus. Did it ever say Fry's b-day? I can't remember. :x

Zodiac signs are bullcrap.
They're all generic, vague traits that everyone has and can be defined as in one way or another. That's why they're so 'Accurate.'
Asides from which, the idea that people's personalities can be defined by the dates in which they were born is ludicrous. What, does the universe hit a certain date and "Hey, we have enough shy, reserved & emotional people in the world right now. Time to start churning out outspoken, spontaneous & impulsive people!" And how come all horoscopes are so different? And how come all these people assign different attributes to different starsigns? Huh?
Horoscopes: Laughable at best.

I'm with 1969 on this one.
The idea that burning balls of hydrogen trillions of miles away can in any way affect our personality is just so incredibly wrong. But what really, really bothers me about astrology as opposed to so many other alternative phenomenas, is that some people actually believe it to be science.
I consider that a mockery on those of us who actually base our findings on facts and proven theories, rather than hogwash.

I agree with 1969 & Mercapto: Astrology is pseudoscientific crap.It's based on the computed positions of the stars. One little problem, though; Astrology ignores an established astro nomical fact called the "Precession of the Eqinox," that I'll not bore you with here. One other little fly in the ointment: The only things from the stars that might affect us are their light, and gravity. If their light affects us, would not the effects of other light sources like the sun or artificial illumination affect us to such a greater degree that effects of starlight would be 'lost in the noise'? Also, most people in this world are born indoors! Well removed from starlight. Not only that; What happens if you're born during the day? As to the effects of gravity: Do the math. The doctor's gravity is immensely more powerfull than even the nearest star, so shouldn't his (or her, I don't wanna be sexist here) gravity have an incredibly greater effect on the newborn? As I say, Astrology in a load of pseudoscientific crap. Having said that, it can be a lot of fun to see how well someone "fit's" their Astrological profile. *Sigh* Okay, I'm done now. PS. I'm a Scorpio...

LMAO at Teral!
There's a million dollar prize up for grabs for the first person to prove than the "Memory of water" theory - that Homeopathy does work.
No-one has done it yet as far as I know. It's still scientifically UNproven crap, as is astronomy. Yet squillions still believe in both.
People will find "facts" in bulldust where they want to. I think if you asked any of the Futurama characters what starsign they are, I think they'd laugh at you heartily.

Astronomy, unproven crap? You looked upwards lately??? I have a postgrad in astrophysics. Don't make me get Khan. Anyway, I don't think that anybody takes astrology that seriously anymore. It's more of a hobby to keep people interested in something. I'm a saggitariarse, and i suppose I have some Zapp qualities, but not that many(the blond hair is kind of where it stops). I can see Zapp with the same sign as me though!
