The Signs as Mythical Creatures

cartoon-tiefling:

Aries: Chimera
The Chimera is a fire-breathing Fusion of several animals mixed into one creature; a Snake for a Tail, two large Bat Wings, their body is a mix of a Goat and a Lion, and they have 2 heads in the forms of a Goat and Lion. The Chimera’s bold and fiery nature is a great match for the passionate and determined Aries!

Taurus: Akhlut
The Akhlut is an Inuit monster, thought to be a powerful water spirit. Though it may appear as a large Orca when in Water, when it is on land, the Akhlut takes the form of a ½ Wolf and ½ Orca hybrid. The Akhlut is a sturdy and powerful creature, making it a great fit for Taurus. 

Gemini: Vampire
A Vampire is a humanoid creature who feeds on human blood, as well as having the abilities to transform into a bat or wolf, not having shadows or reflections, can control weather, and slight immortality. However, a Vampire can be defeated by Garlic & Holy Symbols, they lose their powers in sunlight, and a wooden stake driven into their heart can easily kill them. Although they are definitely a monster, Vampires are also depicted as fancy and beautiful. Their adaptable and eccentric nature definitely makes them great for Gemini. 

Cancer: Gorgon
A Gorgon is the type of monster Medusa was; a humanoid creature with snakes for hair, and the ability to turn anyone to stone simply with eye contact. Although Gorgon are fierce monsters, they are also often depicted as misunderstood, and that nature makes them a great match for the Imaginative yet Pessimistic nature of a Cancer. 

Leo: Ifrit
An Ifrit is a mystical Middle Eastern creature. They are powerful creatures of Fire, who live in societies deep underground, and are depicted as neither truly good nor truly evil. Considering that Leo are often generous yet stubborn people, Ifrit seem to be a good fit for them. 

Virgo: Kitsune
A Kitsune is a Japanese Yokai, depicted as a Fox with 9 (or more) tails. They have the ability to Shapeshift and manipulate Fire. And although some folktales show Kitsune as mischievous trickster spirits, they can also be faithful and kind spirits, though they do need their space and are rather shy creatures; making them a wonderful fit for Virgo. 

Libra: Harpy
A Harpy is a humanoid ½ Human and ½ Bird creature, and while they are beautiful, they can also be dangerous and powerful at the same time. A Libra’s social and indecisive nature seems like a good fit for a wonderful Harpy!

Scorpio: Dullahan
The Dullahan is an Irish headless humanoid creature, who carries their head along with them, and uses their own spine as a whip while riding around on a dark horse to kill travelers. The Dullahan is a resourceful and distrusting monster, making it a great fit for Scorpio. 

Sagittarius: Centaur
A Centaur is a humanoid creature with the Top half of a Human and the Bottom half of a Horse / Deer / other animals of those types. And though the man who created the Centaurs, Ixion, was a really bad dude, Centaur can also be depicted as very Generous, if not a little bit undiplomatic; and that nature makes them a great fit for Sagittarius! Not to mention, lots of Centaurs are depicted as Archers, and considering both Archers and Horses (and even Centaurs) often represent Sagittarius, this fits weirdly well. 

Capricorn: Griffin
The Griffin is a powerful Egyptian creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a Lion, and the Head and Front half of an Eagle (or other types of Birds). Griffins are said to be the “majestic king of all creatures”, and are depicted as Responsible, if not Unforgiving, creature. And given the common personality of Capricorns, a Griffin seems to be a good match. 

Aquarius: Dragon
A Dragon a giant serpent-like creature with horns, two wings, 4 legs, and a tail. These Dragons are also well-known to be capable of Flight, Breathing Fire, and other forms of magic depending on the overall strength of the specific Dragon. Dragons are powerful, eccentric, and often very intelligent creatures, making them perfect for representing Aquarius. 

Pisces: Selkie / Mermaid
A Mermaid is an exclusively-aquatic humanoid creature that is ½ Human and ½ Fish. Similarly, a Selkie is an aquatic humanoid creature who is ½ Human and ½ Seal. Both of these creatures are very similar, so pick which one your want to be (if you’re a Pisces), and both are often depicted Gentle, Compassionate, albeit often Sad creatures; making them a great fit for Pisces. Not to mention, Pisces is often depicted as a fish, further showing how great a Mermaid or Selkie is to represent this sign.
