I'm a virgo and i thought it meant that you'll be a virigin for the rest if your life (I was 8, ok?). Year later, thanks to the New York Times, i totally agree with my scope and don't understand how it understand me so well...
I'm a Scorpio and I feel like it fits me. I don't necessarily agree with all of the star signs, I've met people who don't match their star signs at all, but I can relate to my sign when I read up on it.
