Which Sex and the City Character Are You Based on Your Sign?

There are plenty of quizzes out there to tell you which Sex and the City lady you are based on your answers, but what happens when we look to the stars? Welcome to MsMojo, and today we’ll be asking Which Sex and the City Character Are You Based on Your Sign?   For this list, we’ll be looking at every astrological sign and matching them up with some of our favorite characters from this HBO show. 

Romantic, mysterious and hyper focused, Aleksandr Petrovsky AKA “The Russian” is a classic Pisces. Carrie’s boyfriend in the last season sweeps her off her feet, but she finds herself feeling lonely because he places so much focus on his work. He’s an artist by trade and exemplifies the creative side of the typical Pisces. Now of course, his character took a serious turn for the worse in the final episodes of the show, but we know you’d never do anything like that! 

Above all, Stanford Blatch is a great friend, just like the typical Aquarius. His sense of fashion is second to none, and he doesn’t mind going out on a limb and taking a risk for the sake of a major sartorial payoff. Though he’s quick to make a snarky joke or remark, we know that deep down he’s actually kind of a romantic. He also embodies one of the most well known Aquarian qualities: being a total social butterfly and getting along with just about everyone he meets...well except Anthony, at first!

Have you ever met a more textbook Capricorn than Miranda Hobbes? Of the four girls, she’s the one who takes the world the most seriously, and can be a bit cynical when it comes to her expectations of the people around her. She has a hard time accepting help from others, and can be a little too rigid sometimes. But her ambition knows no bounds, and she breaks barriers in her career time and time again. Capricorns aren’t going to fall all over themselves every time they meet a prospective romantic partner, because they’re going to make them work to prove themselves- just like Miranda does. 

It’s easy to remember Charlotte’s second husband Harry as purely cute, cuddly and sweet, but it’s important to remember that when it’s important enough, he also knows how to stand up for himself. When Charlotte implies that they aren’t equally matched, he’s quick to show her that he’s not willing to put up with being unappreciated. But of course, like any Sagittarius, he knows what he wants and in the end will do anything to make Charlotte happy. 

Sorry Scorpios, you may not like this, but your best “Sex and the City” match is Richard Wright. But before you turn off the video in anger, hear us out. Yes, Richard is a cad who cheated on Samantha, incurring her wrath, but he has his positive traits too. He’s passionate and knows how to take charge, especially when it comes to his business. There’s a reason Sam falls for him in the first place. He definitely has a soft side too, but let’s just say he’s not set up to be a one-woman kind of man. 

We’re not sure that we could have imagined a more perfect match for Miranda than Steve Brady. While at first he may seem rather simple and naive, pushing Miranda to take a risk on him, as the series goes on it’s clear that he knows how to stand up for himself too. He doesn’t put up with Miranda when she’s being unreasonable, and he balances her out by being fun-loving and keeping a level head, just like all the best Libras do. 

Charlotte is the eternal optimist, which makes her a classic Virgo. Charlotte wants to be seen as a good person and cares a lot about doing the right thing, just like you do. She can be a little bit Pollyannaish, which sometimes holds her back, but as the series goes on she comes into her own and gets more bold with her decisions. She upholds traditional values and may be a little bit conservative, but above all much of her life is about servicing the needs of others, making her a great friend and partner. 

#5: Leo - John James “Mr. Big” Preston (circa July 22 — August 22)

Leos are known for thinking they’re the center of the universe, and for enjoying their time in the spotlight. Mr. Big certainly cares about his needs before those of others and can at times be a little bit selfish. But enough with the negative: he is also charismatic and knows how to work a room, just like a typical Leo. There’s a reason why Carrie is so captivated by him for the entire series! He may have a little bit of a hard time committing, but at the end of the day he can also be a total romantic. 

#4: Cancer - Jerry ‘Smith’ Jerrod (circa June 20 — July 22)

Samantha worked hard to nab Smith, but soon after they started seeing each other, she found him to be a bit clingy and needy. So it’s no surprise that we think Smith is a Cancer. Sometimes, he can love too hard and push people beyond their comfort zones, but his heart is always in the right place. When it mattered, he was willing to do absolutely anything for Samantha, even shaving his signature hair off when she was losing hers because of her chemotherapy treatments. 

Geminis are known for being good with words, so our narrator and protagonist Carrie Bradshaw fits perfectly under this sign. Carrie is smart and insightful like so many Geminis are, but she can also be a little bit indecisive, flip flopping from one decision to another. This is one of the things that frustrated viewers, especially when she finally settled down with a good guy only to cheat on him with Big. But of course we love her anyway, because ultimately her positive qualities outweigh the negative. 

People often focus one one specific quality when it comes to Taureans, but this star sign is so much more than their stubbornness! It’s easy to forget that they’re also known for being laid back and calm, just like Carrie’s love interest, Aidan. He’d rather stay in with a bucket of chicken than go out on the town and he’s happiest at his little country cabin. And hey, he also shows off his ability to dig his heels in when it comes time to forgive Carrie for her infidelity. 

With her supreme confidence and lack of inhibitions, Samantha Jones could only be an Aries. Samantha doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her, and has a complete mind of her own when it comes to her opinions. It’s easy to read her as self =involved, but upon closer viewings of the show it’s clear that she’s also an excellent friend who cares a lot about the people who are close to her. She may have a hard time asking for help herself, but she has no problem giving it.
