How long has The Legend of Zelda been entertaining gamers with profound storylines, stunning graphics, and memorable characters? It’s been decades since Link first appeared in a small forest plain without even a sword to take on his adventures. Everyone has a favorite character, and there are many to choose from in the Legend of Zelda franchise, so what does that say about your personality?
The favorite character a Zelda fan chooses aren’t completely random. A person is more likely to choose certain characters based on their own Western zodiac sign. This character often reflects the personality, habits, or ideals of that particular sign.
12 Aries: Impa
Aries is a strong, progressive sign that isn’t afraid of a solo challenge and often takes the incentive to act on their own. They’re compassionate and courageous, but they can also be overly aggressive and impulsive.
That’s why an Aries person would gravitate to Impa, the nursemaid, bodyguard, and companion of Princess Zelda. Like Impa, the Aries child also appreciates comfortable clothes, practical skills, and living and working outdoors.
11 Leo: Epona
Beauty, friendship, the great outdoors, and just running around with friends is what makes Epona happy. These are also a few of Leo’s favorite things. Other traits that will draw the Leo person to Epona’s side are generosity, humor, and staying in a constant state of motion.
On the negative side, Leos reject those who don’t treat them like royalty, similar to how Epona first reacted to Link when they first met in Ocarina of Time.
10 Sagittarius: Navi
A character that’s been by Link’s side since the Ocarina of Time, Navi is impatient, idealistic, and outspoken. She loves her freedom, wandering the world with Link at her side, making sure he doesn’t miss anything important. That connects her with the Sagittarius, who also shares these traits.
Turning thought into action is the main motivation of the Sagittarius person, which is the real driving force behind their association with Navi. They may not be the hero themselves, but they’re the driving force behind them.
9 Taurus: King Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule
Of course, the Taurus person sees themselves in this character, more commonly known as “the Old Man.” This was the mysterious old fellow in the cave at the very beginning of Link’s adventures when the world was still in only 8 bits.
Like the Taurus sign, it’s not clear when he’s nearby or what he’ll do, as he’s a quiet and unassuming character. Despite how quiet they are, the Taurus is always there with you in some form, and he’s got your back. Taurus’s favorite Zelda game is probably Breath of the Wild, where the king plays a much bigger role.
8 Virgo: Link
It’s more than just hero worship. Words like loyal, hardworking, practical, and shy could all describe both Virgo people and Link. A deep sense of duty and humanity drive Link to save Hyrule time and time again, something a Virgo understands.
One of his flaws is that he hates to ask for help, which is also like a Virgo, but fortunately his guide Navi is a Sagittarius, and the pushy type.
7 Capricorn: The Great Deku Tree
Capricorn people and the Great Deku Tree have a lot in common. Sometimes he’s prickly, pushy, and boring, but he has Link’s best interests at heart and he’s always right. The problem is the cold, distant, and unforgiving nature that both Capricorn and the Deku Tree seem to possess.
Link does his best, but he can’t save the Deku Tree from his ultimate fate. However, it’s in the nature of Capricorn to value tradition, family, and sacrifice, and it’s a choice that Capricorns and the Deku Tree are willing to make.
6 Gemini: Skull Kid
This choice is fairly obvious, as masks, and mystery often surrounds the Gemini person, but identifying with this character is more than just an empathetic response. The Skull Kid starts out as a precocious nuisance and becomes a dangerous enemy, and evolution that would fascinate the intelligent and curious Gemini person and mirror their own experience.
It’s his curiosity that gets him into trouble when he steals an enchanted mask, a situation that a Gemini person would understand.
5 Libra: Darunia
The Libra appreciates harmony, balance, and the beauty of nature while shunning confrontation and loud, obnoxious people. That makes them very much like Darunia, the leader of the Gorons. The citizens of Goron City know their patriarch is tough but fair, typical of the Libra person.
A flaw in this sign is that the Libra sometimes has a hard time choosing sides. When he first meets Link in Ocarina of Time, Link has to prove himself before Darunia will help him.
4 Aquarius: The Happy Mask Salesman
He’s not always happy, and neither is the Aquarius sign, which is also artistic and friendly as much as it is temperamental. They fight passionately for causes they believe in and are enraged by broken promises, which explains why he reacts so dramatically when Link fails to complete a quest exactly as he specifies.
Other traits that the Aquarius shares with the Happy mask Salesman include a love of travel, collecting oddities, and mysterious motives. Players who aren’t familiar with the Aquarius sign tend to be put off by this erratic character and classify him as a villain.
3 Cancer: Agahnim
Cancer won’t be afraid to be seen as a villain, because their deep sense of intuition, empathy, and maternal instincts know the world is not always so black and white. The wizard Agahnim helped the King guide Hyrule guide the realm through a dangerous time, doing much to earn the king’s trust while keeping his real plans to usurp the throne a secret.
Only a Cancer person could hatch such a nefarious plan, keeping their friends close and their enemies even closer.
2 Scorpio: Ganondorf Dragmire
Another strong-willed sign that isn’t afraid to get close to the villain, ambitious Scorpio has some admiration for Ganon’s initiative. They also share some of the same quirky traits that are unique to the sign, like teasing and stubbornness.
Like a Scorpio person, Ganon is always one step ahead of everyone, aware of all the facts and figures, and formulating complicated plans to achieve his goals. Scorpio people become enraged when their secrets are revealed, and we see this in Ganon almost every time he appears.
1 Pisces: Princess Zelda
Princess Zelda seems to spend her life fighting the resurgence of the past, and that’s one of the things that makes her a perfect fit for a Pisces. Those born under this sign are known for their selfless actions, deep empathy, compassion, and wisdom, and fans of the Zelda franchise know the Princess of Hyrule is the same.
Her tendency to disguise herself in another form depending on the game is an indication of her intuitive and creative nature and she forms deep emotional attachments to her subjects, the personality traits of a Pisces.
