Thanks to J K Rowling, Pottermore, and a wealth of world-building information, Harry Potter fans can now know what their favorite professor's zodiac signs actually are - but what about the signs that they are most like? Based on the classic star sign traits and the personalities of the Hogwarts professors, we're matching things up to see what you would be if you lived in this magical wizarding world.
From the most famous professors and the Headmaster himself, to some of the oft-forgotten additions to the Hogwarts staff, these are the zodiac traits that the teachers of Harry Potter best match.
12 Aries - Dumbledore
This one may come as a surprise, but Albus Dumbledore is actually most like an Aries. He's brilliant, charismatic, and incredibly capable - but he's also independent, refusing to let other people in on his plans (even when that plan might be deadly), and he's often convinced that he knows better than everyone else. His younger days and everything that happened with Grindelwald and his sister show that Dumbledore also has another Aries trait - impatience, and too much of a risk-taker.
11 Taurus - Pomona Sprout
Professor Sprout, the Herbology teacher and Head of House for Hufflepuff, is a clear Taurus. She's grounded - not just in terms of her personality, but quite literally, thanks to her work with plants and herbs. She is patient and reliable, and like most Hufflepuffs, she's also generous and warm-hearted... just like the Bull of the Zodiac.
10 Gemini - Gilderoy Lockhart
Witty, charismatic, charming, chatty... all the best of the Gemini traits are found in the Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher (and famed author) Gilderoy Lockhart. However, Professor Lockhart is known as a villain because he also exemplifies all the worst traits of the sign. He's two-faced, manipulative, and cunning - and uses that to steal the stories of more capable witches and wizards, wipe their memories, and claim their triumphs as his own.
9 Cancer - Remus Lupin
Like a classic Cancer, Defense Against The Dark Arts Professor Lupin is intuitive, emotional, and warm-hearted. Despite everything that life has thrown at him, and the wizarding world's treatment of werewolves, Lupin remains kind and compassionate.
He also embodies the Cancer traits of being cautious and protective - just look at how careful he was about starting a relationship with Tonks, and how well he protected those he loved. And of course, Cancers are known for being changeable... who could fit that more perfectly than a man who literally changes into a different creature once a month?
8 Leo - Madam Hooch
The flying teacher and Quidditch referee, Madam Hooch is quite the Leo. She can be warm and friendly, and is incredibly enthusiastic - her energy during Quidditch matches is evident, and she teaches the most physical class at Hogwarts. However, like most lions, Madam Hooch can also be bossy, and she's got no time for silliness.
7 Virgo - Minerva McGonagall
This fan-favorite Transfiguration Professor is a Virgo through and through. She's meticulous, orderly, and absolutely fair - but she's got a reputation for being strict, and woe betide anyone who is late to her class (like Ron and Harry, who get quite the dressing down from her in their first year). Like most Virgos, Professor McGonagall is known for wanting to keep things in order and having little patience with chaos - but she's also humble, and not one to be underestimated.
6 Libra - Horace Slughorn
This charming Potions Professor is a perfect Libra - he's the ultimate diplomat, using his abilities to charm all the students with the most potential into becoming his especial favorites (and helping him out when they succeed). He's incredibly sociable, and even throws parties for the students - but he fits the worst traits of this sign, too. He's very easily influenced, as is shown when Tom Riddle can convince him to reveal secrets of the darkest magic, and he's self-indulgent, loving the finest foods, sweets, and comforts.
5 Scorpio - Severus Snape
Love him or hate him, there's little doubt that Snape should be a Scorpio - and like the Potions Master, the scorpion is known to have a bit of a sting! Scorpios are passionate and generally intelligent - and there's no doubt that fits Severus, whose passion for Lily guided his entire life, and whose love of potions made him one of the best wizards in his field. However, like most Scorpios, Snape is also moody, jealous, and obsessive... and this was his downfall.
4 Sagittarius - Rubeus Hagrid
Like most Saggitarius types, Rubeus Hagrid is an optimist, truly believing the best in people (and in all creatures, no matter how dangerous they appeal to other people). He's cheerful, loving, and honest - to a fault, as it seems that Hagrid can't keep a secret to save his life (or anyone else's).
However, while a Saggitarius is often one of the most positive signs, they can let that get in the way of making the smartest decisions... just like Hagrid, with his tendency to raise dangerous and illegal beasts because he just can't see the harm.
3 Capricorn - Filius Flitwick
Although fans don't get to see as much of Filius Flitwick as they would like, there's enough to know that he would definitely be a match for any Capricorn. From what is seen in the series, the Charms Professor is practical, disciplined, and careful - although don't let that fool you, in the Battle of Hogwarts he shows just how brave a Capricorn can be.
2 Aquarius - Firenze
In the films, Firenze doesn't actually become a professor, but any book fan will know that he actually took over after Trelawney was fired by Umbridge. He taught divination through the stars, drawing on the knowledge of his kind. This makes him a perfect Aquarius - solitary and independent, he is also sensitive and extremely wise.
1 Pisces - Sybill Trelawney
Finally, Pisces. The last sign of the zodiac is clearly embodied by Divination Professor Trelawney - whose hippy style and sensitive nature perfectly fits the sign of the fish. This water sign is an extremely sensitive idealist, who (to be honest) isn't always the most grounded in reality. And Trelawney, with her incense, crystal balls, wild predictions, and high drama, is the ultimate Pisces.
