High School Musical: The Musical: The Series – Which Character You Are Based On Your Zodiac

Earlier in January, Olivia Rodrigo, the star of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, dropped her first solo single, “Drivers License.” The Disney+ homage to the original Disney Channel trilogy, starring Zac Efron, was already one of the streamer’s best new series. But the explosion into superstardom for Rodrigo has led to anticipation for the show’s second season that is on par with that of The Mandalorian.

One thing fans especially love about the series is that it is filled to the brim with fun characters. Here’s how they might match up with the signs of the zodiac.

12 Aries: E.J.

In the Zodiac, the Aries sign is defined by their competitive spirits and ability to occupy many roles in a social situation. This is also a perfect way to describe E.J., the jock-turned-theater star on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.

E.J. is obviously dynamic because of his ability to be a star on the field and on the stage. Yet, it’s the competitive nature he harbors within himself to be better that makes him an even clearer Aries parallel.

11 Taurus: Ashlyn

A Taurus is dependable and reliable in any situation. They may be stubborn, but they always know what they want and they’re extremely resourceful at procuring it. Fortunately, in the case of Ashlyn, her stubbornness blends with kindness.

She knows what she wants, but she doesn’t take what she wants. She’s the best of what the Taurus sign has to offer because she’s also deeply talented. That’s why she’s entrusted to write an original song for the play and it winds up being the best one in the series.

10 Gemini: Natalie Bagley

Stage manager Natalie Bagley is obviously a minor character in the show (often, she’s referred to in a punchline capacity). The screen time she does get though reveals she has traits in common with Geminis.

She talks about people behind their backs and is consistently splitting her loyalties. This is a warped kind of versatility, but it’s versatility all the same. If that quality defines Geminis, it also defines Natalie Bagley.

9 Cancer: Kourtney

Nini undergoes a great deal of heartbreak throughout the run of the first season of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Kourtney, though, is always there, right in her corner. It’s the Cancer characteristics in her.

She’s there to help lift Nini up, support her, and push her even more towards greatness. Not to mention, this enables her to apply the same support inwards and make a big splash during the season finale’s production of the show. This sentimental compassion and protection draws a direct line between Kourtney and Cancers.

8 Leo: Gina

If one had to describe Gina’s character, ambitious would be a clear adjective to use. However, the show also reveals how dramatic and outgoing Gina is. She has a fiery passion within her.

Therefore, there’s no other Zodiac sign that she can match up with than the Leo sign. Leos are known for their dramatic natures and their ability to escalate any normal situation into an extreme one. Gina has that uncanny capacity, too.

7 Virgo: Mr. Mazzara

Most of the characters on the show are known for their artistic abilities. Mr. Mazzara, on the other hand, is representative of a different side of East High: the side that is more inclined towards math and science.

He leads with reason and logic, which makes him an obvious match for the sign of Virgo. Virgos are not only practical; they’re analytical. Considering Mr. Mazzara only makes decisions based on analysis, he’s a perfect choice for Virgo.

6 Libra: Seb

Seb is a character due for a major uptick in screen time in the show’s second season. For now, his recurring role was sizable enough to reveal him as an analog for the Libra sign.

Libras are social people (rather like Seb), but they also have a keen sense of fairness in the world. Considering Seb always acts within reason and never engages in petty side-taking drama, he’s as fair as a Libra representative should be.

5 Scorpio: Ricky

While many Zodiac signs are defined by their resourcefulness, that’s a quality that is attuned to the Scorpio sign most prominently. As such, the Scorpio sign is one that Ricky embodies because of his ability to make his way into any situation, no matter how distant.

On top of that, he also has immense courage and passion for whatever he sets his mind on. In the case of the show, it’s the role of Troy Bolton and the affection of Nini. Ricky never waves from either, though, proving him to be a clear Scorpio figure.

4 Sagittarius: Big Red

Ricky’s best friend, Big Red, on the other hand, is more aligned with the Sagittarius side of the Zodiac signs. After all, Big Red gets a lot of the show’s funnier lines of dialogue.

Humor is a concept well-associated with the Sagittarius sign and so is optimism. Big Red always thinks the best of people and tries to find silver linings in any situation. He’s a Sagittarius match through and through.

3 Capricorn: Carlos

From the first trailer of the show, Carlos made it apparent that he was destined for bigger things by stating his fantasy of Broadway. Considering that Carlos often makes his own way, it’s no surprise he links up with the Capricorn sign.

Capricorns are well-regarded for their individualism and their tenacity. Carlos is a talented worker in the school’s theater department and he never gives up on the show. Capricorns would undoubtedly do the same.

2 Aquarius: Miss Jenn

Speaking of people who never give up on the show, Miss Jenn connects with Carlos over that very subject. She’s the living embodiment of “the show must go on.”

As such, she shares a great deal in common with Aquariuses. They are also defined by their traits of openness and Miss Jenn is certainly open to any possibilities – especially when she casts her show.

1 Pisces: Nini

Lastly, Nini is a character that is defined by the traits that also color those born under the sign of Pisces. The Pisces traits involve empathy, unforeseen wisdom, and artistic prowess.

Considering Nini always extends an open heart to the people she cares about and is obviously such a talented star, Pisces is an obvious choice to match her with. Season Two will continue to mine the depths of all the artistic ingenuity Nini has to offer, continuing to show her Pisces nature.
