Zodiac tattoos for every sign
The date range, the glyph, the constellation and the figure behind each sign, with twelve designs per sign covering all four.
Aquarius
Aquarius runs from January 20 to February 18. The glyph is two wavy lines, the symbol is a person pouring water, and the element is air.
Aries
Aries runs from March 21 to April 19, and the three designs people ask for are the glyph, the ram and the constellation. They look nothing alike.
Cancer
Cancer runs from June 21 to July 22. The glyph is two spirals, the symbol is the crab, and the constellation is the faintest of the twelve.
Capricorn
Capricorn runs from December 22 to January 19, and its symbol is the sea goat: a goat's head and front legs ending in a fish tail.
Gemini
Gemini runs from May 21 to June 20. The glyph is two pillars, the constellation is two stick figures, and the twins are Castor and Pollux.
Leo
Leo runs from July 23 to August 22. It has the most drawn symbol of the twelve, the lion, and a constellation that genuinely looks like one.
Libra
Libra runs from September 23 to October 22, and it is the only zodiac sign whose symbol is an object rather than a person or an animal.
Pisces
Pisces runs from February 19 to March 20. The symbol is two fish tied together and swimming in opposite directions, which is the whole idea.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius runs from November 22 to December 21. The glyph is an arrow with a crossbar, and the symbol is a centaur drawing a bow.
Scorpio
Scorpio runs from October 23 to November 21, and it has the one constellation in the zodiac that really does look like the creature it is named after.
Taurus
Taurus runs from April 20 to May 20. Of the twelve signs it has the best constellation to work with, and most people never use it.
Virgo
Virgo runs from August 23 to September 22. The glyph is an M with a looping final stroke, and the constellation is the largest in the zodiac.
