Aries: The Fate Goddess Parca (The collective name of the Three Fates)

People born under the Aries sign often have a strong sense of justice, which can be reflected in their willingness to stand up for others and oppose bullying. In Roman mythology, the Three Fates are sisters. The youngest, Clotho, holds the spindle that determines the thread of life; Lachesis turns the spindle, undulating the thread of life; Atropos decides the length of the thread of life. Together, they judge each person's fate based on their merits and sins, directly determining human destiny. Unlike Libras, the justice of Aries is like the unchanging thread in the hands of the Fates, steadfast and unwavering once decided. They will strive for the truth they believe in.

Taurus: Ceres, the Goddess of Grain (Demeter)

Demeter is a goddess with long golden hair, presiding over crops and all plants growing on the earth. She could be considered essential for human survival. Taurus women are generally perceived as resilient, patient, artistic, and financially savvy. However, unlike Capricorn, another earth sign, Taurus has an extreme tendency. Just like Demeter, who was heartbroken when her daughter disappeared, causing the earth to become barren. But when Demeter found her daughter, the sudden blossoming of flowers also represents the forgiving nature of Taurus individuals.

Gemini: Aurora, the Goddess of Dawn

It's difficult to categorize Gemini women into a single archetype, as dual personalities like these Eve-like figures rarely exist in ancient Roman myths. Between the Furies and the Dawn Goddess, I chose Aurora. Her attitude towards love and life closely resembles the two-souled Gemini women. Aurora might dislike Apollo due to Cupid's enchanted arrow, yet she is one of the few who dare to refuse Apollo, the god who attracts all women. Aurora has always been beautiful but maintains a nonchalant attitude towards emotions, a cold calmness that aligns with the subconscious personality of Geminis. Ultimately, Aurora transforms into a laurel tree, symbolizing kingship and victory. Her soul becomes the Dawn Goddess of Olympus, appearing just before dawn and during the first light of morning, active in the darkest moments, neither day nor night.

Cancer: Hestia, the Goddess of Home

In Roman mythology, there isn't much written about Hestia, the Goddess of Home. However, this goddess best represents the latent characteristics of most Cancer women. People I know say Cancer women are very gentle. Moreover, they are willing to make sacrifices for others' happiness, something many other zodiac signs cannot do. Therefore, many say they lack sharpness and have more gentleness, making them appear very feminine and adorable. Similarly, Hestia remains unmarried to better protect the purity and happiness of young girls, tirelessly working day and night. For the sake of others, she has completely devoted her eternal life.

Leo: Juno, the Queen of Heaven (Hera)

Hera and Jupiter (Zeus) are both children of the sky god Cronus (Saturn), and Hera is also Zeus's wife. "Her majesty and power only yield to the natural spirit of the universe," thus it's clear how Hera connects with Leo women, who possess a noble and regal demeanor. Hera's power ranks second only to Zeus, the ruler of all. Sometimes, even Zeus must accommodate this proud and charming wife. Hera is the guardian of women, possessing a nearly arrogant nobility similar to Leos. However, it's undeniable that this noble goddess often feels jealous due to her husband's infidelity. Many Leo women show jealousy or resentment when faced with someone more outstanding than themselves, which can be seen as part of their true nature. Compared to unpredictable Aquarians and Geminis and secretly resentful Scorpios and Capricorns, their straightforward reactions make them endearing.

Virgo: Proserpina, the Goddess of Death

In recorded texts, Proserpina, the Goddess of Death, is described as a dark beauty wearing a crown adorned with white poppies and stars. Proserpina's duty is to collect souls and guide them to the afterlife, hence she is also known as the Goddess of the Underworld. This goddess shares similarities with Virgo women, being quite fair and meticulous. They hold themselves to high standards because they believe if they can do something, why not do it to the best of their ability? Likewise, they hold others to strict standards, making having a Virgo female boss an honor, as their strictness instills discipline in subordinates. The Death Goddess is no different, leaving no soul behind, ensuring her work is flawless. Don't these traits remind you of those Virgo friends around you who are always striving for better? A little bit, right?

Libra: Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty (Aphrodite)

Among all the goddesses, Venus is the most beautiful, governing human love, marriage, and fertility. She was born from the foam when Cronus threw his father Uranus's limbs into the sea. Venus is the perfect embodiment of love and beauty. Libra women are universally acknowledged as beautiful, and even if just pretty, their grasp of trends and fashion sense makes them stand out. What draws people to Libra women isn't just their beauty but the grace and appropriateness in their every move. They are people of taste, possessing charm and depth, radiating beauty inside and out, embodying complete allure. Yet remember, time takes away beauty, and only Libras who find peace and stability within remain poised and enchanting. Beware not to waver internally like Venus and engage in undesirable actions.

Scorpio: Nox, the Goddess of Night

Scorpio women are called the sexiest, but beneath their alluring exteriors lies sharpness and ambition. They are vengeful and repay wrongs without showing it openly. Unlike the compromising Pisces and Cancer water signs, Scorpios conceal all their thoughts meticulously under the cover of night, making their beauty mysterious and captivating. Like the always black-haired Nox, the Goddess of Night, her serene face bears an unfathomable smile. Always hidden in shadows, she reveals nothing of her true nature.

Sagittarius: Diana, the Moon Goddess and Huntress (Artemis, Cynthia, Phoebe)

Diana, Zeus's daughter and Apollo's twin sister, is the goddess of the moon and hunting. She said to Zeus, "Father, please give me a bow, some arrows, and a torch, allowing me to roam freely in the forest like a man." Zeus agreed, and thereafter, Diana hunted alongside her companions—woodland nymphs and water nymphs—in the mountains and forests. This lifestyle resonates with Sagittarius girls, who love freedom and travel. Diana once vowed never to marry, yet she fell for her assistant Orion (whom she mistakenly killed). Sagittarius women often break their vows, lacking the perseverance and patience characteristic of Geminis. The Moon Goddess grants kisses to handsome men she likes, turning them into poets or philosophers. Sagittarius women similarly often hesitate among attractive men and women.

Capricorn: Themis, the Goddess of Justice

Capricorn women are very enduring, capable of bearing humiliation and fulfilling their duties. Some say they are workaholics under immense pressure, but I disagree. They work hard and diligently to achieve the satisfaction brought by their jobs, and many successful women belong to this zodiac. Like the Goddess of Justice, Themis, who often sits beside Zeus's throne, using her judgment to help Zeus make indisputable decisions. She governs the halls of Mount Olympus and the entire universe's norms. She is loyal to Zeus and performs her duties faithfully. Unbiased and law-abiding, these are the characteristics of the Goddess of Justice, and having firm principles and a deep sense of responsibility are features of every Capricorn woman.

Aquarius: Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom and Peace (Minerva, Pallas Athena)

Athena was born amidst thunderclaps, the daughter of Metis and Zeus, the wisest woman among humans and gods. She represents lightning and inherits her parents' powers. Kind-hearted, she loves clearly and hates all forms of violence. Greeks believed Athena was invincible, thus calling her the War Goddess. However, Athena detests war and teaches people to plant olive trees symbolizing peace, imparting agricultural, artistic, and textile skills to humanity. Aquarius women are elusive, like plankton disappearing into water. Yet they usually possess artistic talent, wisdom, and intelligence, seeing through many issues at a glance. Their nature is a naive kindness. Since the ideal world doesn't exist, they can imagine a complete one, living almost beyond the edge of the world. Perhaps only Athena, the goddess of highest wisdom, can roughly represent them.

Pisces: Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea

Despite everyone saying Pisces women are too weak and emotional, it's undeniable they are the ideal lovers in many men's hearts, and women mostly enjoy befriending them. Because Pisces women listen well. They fear loneliness and love life, enjoying things typical for girls, like small accessories, pink, and bows. They are often delicate and cute, gentle to their boyfriends. Amphitrite, the Sea Queen mentioned less in myths compared to the Queen of Heaven and the Queen of the Underworld, shares many Pisces women's traits. Originally just an ordinary sea nymph, she became a noble queen due to Poseidon's admiration. She treats her husband tenderly, is kind to her children and marine inhabitants, and is much loved. These Cinderella-like stories suit Pisces women perfectly.
