12 Aries - Naruto
Loud. Bold. Determined. Those are three of the top traits that both Naruto and Aries share. Naruto isn't afraid of a challenge and never backs down from his goals. He is wild and out of the box, super extroverted, and never seems to calm down. He is always eager to talk someone's ear off and would confidently go into battle alone to protect those he cares about.
This motivated young ninja had to face an extreme amount of neglect as he grew up, but his determination and courage allowed him to thrive even with his tragic past holding him back. Aries tend to be very emotionally and mentally strong, not letting their tough times weigh them down. They love holding leadership roles and thrive as the head of the pack, which is clear in Naruto's case as his ultimate goal is to become a Hokage. Though sometimes irritable or impatient, the positive aspects of both Aries and Naruto outweigh their negatives.
11 Taurus - Shikamaru
Not always the most enthusiastic and ready to mingle, Taurus' like to keep to themselves a lot of the time. Shikamaru embodies the personality of a Taurus in how he is extremely loyal, goal-oriented, and passionate, but he won't show that to just anyone. He has a tight group of friends that he trusts and doesn't care much to impress anyone else.
Though they typically sport a very calm and collected façade, Taurus' can become terrifying once you greatly upset them! This is why they are represented as bull, for their usual chill and put-together demeanor can be replaced by a fury of passion at a moment's notice. Shikamaru always acts like he is neutral or bored in situations, but the moment his friends are hurt or threatened, he becomes quite the force to be reckoned with!
10 Gemini - Sasuke
Gemini are very intelligent, rebellious, and are always on the move, just like Sasuke. Of course, the stereotype that Geminis are able to put on different masks and be unsure of who they truly are can reign true, especially in the Uchiha's case. They struggle with indecisiveness and impulsivity, but their positive traits are just as powerful as some of the negative ones.
Gemini are intelligent, energetic, passionate, curious, and ready to take on the world. Sasuke fits the mold of a Gemini as he struggles between wanting the love and affection from his dear Hidden Leaf Village friends and being affected by the trauma from his past. He is a born leader who is often misunderstood by others but continues to be strong, hard-working, open-minded, and resilient.
9 Cancer - Rock Lee
Cancer's are basically the nicest sign out of the bunch, being considerate, loyal to no ends, and very emotional. They can be looked down on at times for not being serious enough, but they'll prove you wrong with their wits and passion, just like Rock Lee. He is sensitive, yet fierce, and will never give up on someone he cares about. He will always reach out a helping hand to those who need one.
Cancer's can typically have a great sense of humor and love making others happy. They are very protective of their own and others' feelings, as well. Rock Lee is overly social and loves being a part of a team, eager to prove his worth to his comrades and opponents.
8 Leo - Kakashi
A born leader who knows it. That is Kakashi and Leo signs in a nutshell. They are always in control and love to be the ones to help other people. They work hard and are very organized, but also know how to kick back and relax when they have the time. They are very competent and proud of who they are, learning from their past to continue doing their best every day.
Leos and Kakashi prove that they are the best person to lead a team and to learn a great deal from. They love guiding others and boosting morales of people they love. They also may become a bit dominant and possessive over the things they care about, but that's just a part of their vivid personality.
7 Virgo - Sakura
Sakura is always showing off her Virgo traits, including being very protective, intelligent, caring, and analytical. She can be overly critical of herself and has a hard time relaxing. Virgos care about others more than themselves sometimes, making sure their loved ones are happy and supported at all times. They are beyond reliable and can be very creative with many aspects of their lives.
They are hard-working, patient, and kind, though sometimes a bit stubborn or overcritical. Just like Virgos, Sakura is quick to aid those in need, focusing a lot of her strength on being able to support other ninjas in her village. Sakura cares for her friends with her whole heart, using her compassion and loyalty to boost her skill to incredible heights.
6 Libra - Tsunade
As the Fifth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village, Tsunade has to hone in on her impeccable leadership skills to keep things running as smoothly as possible. She takes on the Libra trait of being a good mediator, problem solver, and diplomat in professional affairs. They focus their attention on keeping the peace through thought-out solutions and compromise.
Libras, and Tsunade, are very sociable, extroverted, fun, compassionate, and stubborn. They love making others feel included and can be great leaders. They have undeniable charm and use that to achieve their goals. Of course, Libras have other unique, more human sides to themselves. They may focus so much on avoiding conflict between others, they forget to take care of themselves and are left feeling burnt out and unappreciated.
5 Scorpio - Minato
A Scorpio is always someone you can lean on, just like the dependable Minato. He can be very intense, competitive, and self-reliant, but he balances it out by being emotional, calm, and overly caring. Both Minato and Scorpios take on protective roles in their relationships, wanting to keep those they love at ease. They can read other people very easily and are very emotionally intelligent.
Angering a Scorpio can be dangerous, as they will do anything to get justice. They are incredibly bold and determined to get what they want, just like Minato demonstrated to get where he did in his impressive life. He sacrificed his life to save his village and his son, not hesitating once to keep them safe.
4 Sagittarius - Itachi
Sagittarius are very intelligent, brave, and philosophical. Itachi had to face near-impossible decisions in his life, leading him to embody many characteristics of a Sagittarius. He and the Zodiac sign are impeccably loyal, strong-willed, assertive, and protective. They are very adaptive to their situations and are no stranger to change, open to trying new things and seeing the world.
Itachi defends the idea of freedom, is very determined towards his goals, and bears no regrets for his well-informed decisions. Being very well-thought-out, empathetic, and straightforward is a common trait in Sagittarius signs.
3 Capricorn - Jiraiya
Both Capricorns and Jiraiya would do anything to get what they want. They like to be the best person in the room at all times, working hard to come out on top in anything they do. They are very determined and are very black and white. Jiraiya shows off his top Capricorn personality traits when he is sarcastic, bossy, ambitious, dependable, and overly passionate. He is very persistent to achieve his life goals, just like the goat star sign.
Capricorns are very social but prefer only fully opening themselves up to a small group of trusted friends. Though they can be a bit egotistical and greedy in life, they wouldn't hesitate to kill, or die, for the people they care about.
2 Aquarius - Gaara
Gaara is a character who takes a long time to open up to others. He struggles with being an open book and tends to keep to himself and his small group of trusted ninja. Aquarius are intelligent, intuitive, stubborn, chaotic, and independent, as is Gaara. He is such a loved character due to his strong outer shell and flawed inner self that he tries hard to work on. Gaara embodies an Aquarius in how he can be very distant and reserved but is a trustworthy and kind person to have on one's side.
Aquarius can be big nonconformists and may stick out in a room, but they don't care about what others think of them. They are assertive when they need to be, but love sticking to a soothing, calm demeanor.
1 Pisces - Hinata
A Pisces is someone who isn't very good at hiding their inner feelings. Hinata is a perfect Pisces in how she starts off in the series as very indecisive, vulnerable, intelligent, and highly observant. It takes time and experience for her to grow her confidence, self-awareness, and powerful abilities. She is devoted to her allies and is definitely someone to rely on. Hinata and Pisces will go the extra mile to ensure the happiness of those around them.
Though her strong emotions can drag her down at times, they can also be her reason to fight with all her might. Never underestimate a Pisces! Their emotional awareness and creativeness can launch them to surpass their goals.
