ruled by: mars
status: I am
quickfire: Ok, we all know that you're the true bull... (ssshhhhh, don't tell Taurus!). You're headstrong, pushy, and need to be first... no body sees you comin! You love to cram in lots of experiences and passionately keep moving forward. You're eating birthrights are no exception... furious hunger, fast food, no fuss. You work hard and play harder and magnetically compete with everyone. You're first in the Zodiac for a reason... the rest of us depend on you!

taurus

Hear's a tune you'll soon be humming!

april 20 - may 20
ruled by: venus
status: I have
quickfire: You are a musical being who loves potatoes. Yes, even though you tend to be a mass of contradicitons, it's that simple. You love beauty, converastion, and fine things. These traits transfer nicely to your foodie birthrights.... good service, good food, good value. You equally embrace traditional or exotic cooking and you don't like to repeat your recipies. Of course, you're so stubborn, your best bet is to host the dinner party so your guests can't disagree with you! The bonus is... you're GREAT COOKS! Of course, Chef Cosmo is a Taurus!

Two by two you travel through life!

may 21 to june 20
ruled by: mercury
status: I think
quickfire: Whoa! You're probably reading this on your iPhone 3GS en route to your next 'to do'... stop for just a minute and breathe. I promise your world won't disolve like a warp in the Matrix. You are constantly on the go, multi-tasking with moody flair. By all foodie birthrights, your favorite foods can be eaten while walking, blogging, or debating. Your liberal nature and quick mind makes you a sought after companion for all entertaining activities. Learn to graze, you'll love the scenery.

Your shell is not all it's cracked up to be, break out!

june 21 - july 22
ruled by: the moon
status: I feel
quickfire: Our crab-people LOVE their shells and rely on their whole astro-chart to crack them open. The rest of us couldn't survive without these home-loving, sensitive, nurturing, possessive, domestic crustaceons. You are at your best when you are comforting others with food. You derail everyones diets with love. Your friends will have to drag you out to restaurants, but once there, you are the lifeline of the party and grateful that they made the effort (as long as no one hurts your feelings!)

leo

Got a band? I'll lead it!

july 23 -august 22
ruled by: the sun
status: I will
quickfire: Mangiare is not just the Italian verb for 'to eat'. Mangia! is the passionate cry that sounds the beginning of every Italian meal with outstretched arms and huge smiles. A Leo must have started this tradition. You are a community cat, magnetic and generous... especially when you have an audience. You love the best of everything and your foodie birthright is no exception. Bask in the warmth of hosting great meals, you're always a crowd pleaser!

virgo

There IS a big picture, find it!

august 23 - september 22
ruled by: mercury
status: I analyze
quickfire: Recipe dissection is a favorite pastime for our analytical Virgoans. You are likely to be a vegetarian or have acute tendencies toward certain food philosophies. Your foodie birthright is a nourishing diet of nuts, grains, beans, seeds and plain yogurt... boring! It's okay, someone has to keep us healthy! Avoid noisy crowds, they cause stress and disturb your perfectionist eating rituals. You are benevolent to a fault... tweeting your generous spirit helps our world evolve.

libra

Everything really is beautiful!

september 23 - october 22
ruled by: venus
status: I balance
quickfire: Libra's proverbial passionate soul makes them the ultimate dream foodie. You love to orchestrate events and create experiences. You require lots of texture in your foods, friends, and environments. Your need to constantly engage your senses motivates you to experience many cultural and exotic foods and just as many variations of people. Learn to reign in your inner control freak and the world will truly see through your rose-colored glasses.

scorpio

News flash...we know who you are!

october 23 - november 21
ruled by: mars
status: I create
quickfire: Scorpio is the only Sun Sign that can make sleazy the new fine dining experience. You love dark, secluded, mysterious places where you can be incognito and embrace your wild side. Your intense extremes motivate you toward harsh diets. Give yourself a break and create more of your favorite foodie experiences, which will include spicy reds, rich seafoods, and lots of proteins... oh, and cocktails. You keep us on our toes and enrich our spheres.

sagittarius

See the world... must have tickets!

november 22 - december 21
ruled by: jupiter
status: I understand
quickfire: Encarta defines abundance as a fullness of spirit that overflows. That is you, Sag, in loads. Your free spirit craves travel and you adore foreign foods as long as you can find the locals' hangout. You love to be entertained while eating... good jokes or dinner theater, either works fine. Keep the overindulgence in check, except for those first class backyard barbecues you're famous for.

capricorn

Climb every mountain... hurdle every ladder!

december 22 - january 19
ruled by: saturn
status: I use
quickfire: Who says you can't mix business with pleasure? You are a networking, connecting, climbing, dogmatic, misunderstood overachiever! In order to sustain this momentum you need hearty traditional sustenance. You are uncomfortable with self-indulgence and whims... so ask your friends to calendar reminders to poke you to do something to treat yourself. A great meal is the perfect reward for all of your hard work!

aquarius

Continue inventing our future!

january 20 - february 18
ruled by: uranus
status: I know
quickfire: You are living in a time zone ahead of the rest of us happily surrounded by a fray of eclectic friends and family dysfunction. You are innovative, smart, rebelious, and talkative. You will try anything and hate breakfast (for breakfast). Your foodie birthrights feed this stream with lots of weird food, strangely connected dinner guests, and a pda full of great friends who adore hanging out with you.

pisces

Dream a little dream for me!

february 19 - march 20
ruled by: neptune
status: I believe
quickfire: Pisces is the compassionate psychic blend of all the Sun Signs. You believe in everyone and everything, which makes you a sensitive, caring friend. People love to share meals with you, there's always great music, warm aesthetics, and lots of bubbles. If you could have dinner and a massage at the same time, you'd totally do it!
