Which Sith Are You, Based On Your Zodiac Sign?
Summary Darth Vader exemplifies the complex path to the dark side, showcasing the depth and nuances of Sith characters in Star Wars.
Each Sith in this list perfectly matches a Zodiac sign based on their unique flaws and compelling stories, beyond just being villains.
These 12 Sith, including characters like Darth Bane and Darth Tyranus, embody the traits associated with their respective Zodiac signs in the Star Wars universe.
These 12 Sith in Star Wars canon and Legends perfectly represent each of the Zodiac signs. Although many Sith in Star Wars movies and TV shows follow a similar pattern of apprentices seeking to overthrow their masters, they are incredibly unique characters. Indeed, many of Star Wars' most powerful Sith are so much more than simply villains of pure evil.
With Darth Vader as an excellent example, the fall to the dark side is often a complicated path, corrupting even the most well-intentioned Jedi and other Force-users. This is true across the Star Wars timeline and in both canon and Legends stories. Of all the Sith in Star Wars, these 12 are the best matches for each of the Zodiac signs, not only because of their flaws but also because of their more nuanced stories.

Darth Bane's Passion And Temper Make Him A Perfect Aries
The Creator Of The Sith Rule Of Two Was Nothing If Not Determined

Darth Bane Created By George Lucas Cast Mark Hamill First Appearance Bane of the Sith Alliance Sith
In Star Wars, Darth Bane is something of a legend. Like most Sith outside of those depicted in the Skywalker Saga, Darth Bane's story in the franchise has been fairly complicated due to the franchise re-organizing the continuity and making the Expanded Universe 'Legends.' However, Darth Bane entered the canon in Star Wars: The Clone Wars in a brilliant scene depicting Bane as a ghost confronting Master Yoda at his own tomb.
In canon, Darth Bane was the creator of the Sith Rule of Two, the doctrine that established one master and one apprentice, with the apprentice always seeking to take the power of the master. Bane's incredible impact therefore represents the passionate and motivated personality of Aries well. However, Aries, known for being somewhat temperamental, also fits Bane, who was prone to anger to say the least.
Extremely Loyal, Darth Talon Clearly Fits The Taurus Traits
Star Wars' Twi'lek Sith Was Unwaveringly Committed To Darth Krayt
Close
Darth Talon is yet another Sith who became part of Legends after Star Wars' re-organization, but audiences have long been eager to see her enter the canon. In fact, this almost came to be, as George Lucas' sequel trilogy plan would have seen Darth Maul as the main antagonist/the Sith master with Darth Talon at his side as his apprentice. Sadly, this did not come to be, which may mean Darth Talon is unlikely to become canon.
However, her Legends story alone is plenty interesting and makes her an obvious Taurus. Taurus, in addition to being primarily known for stubbornness, is also an unfailingly loyal sign. This certainly suits Darth Talon, who was willing to give her life (or take someone else's) at a moment's notice should Darth Krayt command her to. Of course, Taurus, ruled by Venus, is also considered the most sensual of the signs, and it's difficult to miss that aspect of Talon's character in her styling alone.
Easily The Most Charming Dark Side Character, Asajj Ventress Is A Gemini
Even Some Of Star Wars' Most Powerful Jedi Were Drawn To Ventress
Close
Asajj Ventress Created By George Lucas , Genndy Tartakovsky Cast Nika Futterman , grey delisle First Appearance Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003) Alliance Sith, Bounty Hunters
Asajj Ventress is the only inclusion on this list who is not actually a Sith. Rather, Ventress entered canon in The Clone Wars as a dark side Force-user and Count Dooku's assassin. While she may have been acting as Dooku's apprentice in a way, Palpatine and Dooku were the clear master and apprentice Sith duo at the time. However, Ventress is so befitting a Gemini, she has more than earned her spot on this list.
Despite Ventress being on the dark side (although Star Wars: The Bad Batch may have suggested she'd joined the light side with Asajj Ventress' return to the franchise), Ventress was incredibly likable. In fact, even the Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi especially, couldn't help but like her, and another Jedi, Quinlan Vos, even fell in love with her. This is no doubt in part due to her charming personality, complete with clever quips and even some subtle flirtations.
The Self-Protective Nature Of Cancers Is An Obvious Fit For Darth Plagueis
Palpatine's Sith Master Was Desperate For Immortality
Your browser does not support the video tag.
Darth Plagueis was established in the canon as Palpatine's previous Sith master in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith when Palpatine asked Anakin Skywalker if he had ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis. That story, effectively, was of Plagueis' quest for immortality, which sadly (for Plagueis) failed when Palpatine killed him in his sleep. However, the goal itself reveals Plagueis' desperate self-preservation, linked to one prominent trait of Cancers.
While Cancers outside the galaxy far, far away might not be trying to live forever, the very symbol of Cancer, the crab, reflects a need to protect oneself in addition to having a hard exterior. In real life, that can manifest as maintaining a long-standing grudge or holding others at arm's length. This can also lead to intense suspicion of others, which, simply given the nature of the Sith Rule of Two, Plagueis would have been prone to—although, arguably, not quite suspicious enough, given how he died.
Darth Vader's Strength (And Arrogance) Make Him An Obvious Leo
Darth Vader Could Only Be A Fire Sign
Close
Any Leo would be thrilled by the idea that they are the Chosen One, as Leos can be egotistical and arrogant. These traits are certainly true of Darth Vader, who not only was confident that he was the one foretold in the Chosen One prophecy but also was capable of killing Palpatine almost immediately after becoming his Sith apprentice. However, underneath the mask and the suit, Darth Vader is still Anakin Skywalker (despite his insistence to the contrary) and therefore shares more positive traits as well.
Any Leo would be thrilled by the idea that they are the Chosen One.
Prior to falling to the dark side, Anakin was an incredible leader in the Clone Wars, boldly running headfirst into battle. He was also rather charismatic (that's how he won over Padmé, after all) and was unfailingly loyal, even to a fault. However, as a Sith, he certainly fit the bill for many of the more negative traits associated with Leo.
Practical But Controlling, Darth Sidious Could Only Be A Virgo
Despite Using His Abilities For Evil, Palpatine Did (Sort Of) Unify A Galaxy
Close
Virgos are known for being practical perfectionists, which can lead them to become a bit controlling. Because Virgos tend to be so detail-oriented and strategic, they may believe they know best, coming off as a bit 'bossy' to others. While he certainly used those traits for evil (and thinking about Palpatine as bossy is humorous given the extent of his power and dangerousness), Emperor Palpatine is an excellent fit for Virgo.
Like most Sith, Palpatine takes the traits of his Zodiac sign to an extreme level. For example, Virgos are known for being organized and hard-working, which Palpatine certainly is given his ability to establish an entire Galactic Empire under his rule. Of course, this is taking the Zodiac sign at its worst; while a Sith like Palpatine might play to a sign's most negative traits, there's plenty to love about Virgos in real life.
Darth Revan's Idealism Makes Him A Clear Libra
Darth Revan Sought Peace But Fell Victim To The Dark Side
Close
Darth Revan is an incredibly popular character, although he has yet to appear on-screen in Star Wars canon. He came close to doing so in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, but that scene ultimately didn't make the cut. However, he is technically canonized, as one of the Sith legions in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker bore his name.
While this means that Revan's canon story is unclear, his Legends story is fascinating and aligns him with Libra. Despite going to the dark side of the Force, Revan had clear ideals—even after he had fallen. In fact, even as a Sith, Revan sought order for the galaxy, believing the ends justified the means. Libras are also known for seeking balance, which is particularly interesting given Revan's history with both the light and dark side of the Force.
Darth Maul's Ability To Work In The Shadows Is Perfect For Scorpios
Some Even Argue That Maul Is The Real Phantom Menace
Close
Darth Maul is an incredible Star Wars character who has only become more interesting as the franchise has gone on. Introduced in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Maul was at first a terrifying Sith who was more mysterious than anything else. However, The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels both fleshed him out wonderfully, proving him to be cunning and determined.
These traits make Maul an excellent fit for Scorpio; in fact, the symbol of Scorpio, the scorpion, is a creature known to strike at the right moment. This is absolutely true of Maul, who worked in the shadows throughout The Phantom Menace, The Clone Wars, and Rebels. Some even believe Maul to be the titular phantom menace, although others argue it was Palpatine. Moreover, Scorpios are well-known for being secretive, something that describes Maul perfectly.
Some even believe Maul to be the titular phantom menace.
Intelligent But Fickle, Darth Tyranus Is Definitely A Sagittarius
Count Dooku Was Known For Being Wise, Even To The Jedi
Close
Count Dooku, also called Darth Tyranus, is a clear Sagittarius. For one, Sagittarius is a sign associated with being philosophical and intellectual. While Count Dooku had many flaws, both of these traits certainly fit him well. In some ways, he seemed the wisest of the Sith in the Skywalker Saga, calculating and logical even as he was leading a war against the Republic.
In fact, Sagittarius men in particular are known for being deep thinkers and confident. However, that confidence in particular can lend itself to being boastful, one of the more negative Sagittarius traits. This holds true for Count Dooku, who was certainly boastful and full of bravado throughout his appearances in the Star Wars prequel trilogy and The Clone Wars. This unfortunately contributed to his death in Revenge of the Sith, when he was astonished to discover his master, Palpatine, was plotting to kill him.
Ambitious And Strategic, Darth Zannah Makes An Excellent Capricorn
Darth Zannah Began The Pattern Of The Apprentice Usurping The Master
Close
Darth Zannah is a fascinating character in Star Wars. Serving as Darth Bane's Sith apprentice, Zannah had an impact on generations to come; in fact, her influence can still be seen in Star Wars' most recent Sith. While her master may have established the Sith Rule of Two, she effectively began the long-standing practice of the apprentice seeking to overthrow the master.
This has permeated the Sith ever since, with Sith apprentices including Darth Maul and Darth Vader seeking to usurp their Sith masters (or previous master, in Maul's case). Although not technically a Sith, even Kylo Ren perpetuated this cycle by killing his master, Snoke, in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. This aligns Darth Zannah with the extreme ambition Capricorns are known for. Indeed, few things in Star Wars could be considered more goal-oriented than wanting to kill a Sith master and take the power for oneself.

Aquarius' Highly Intelligent Nature Is A Perfect Fit For Darth Tenebrous
Darth Tenebrous Was One Of Star Wars' Most Brilliant Sith
Close
In addition to being one of Star Wars' most powerful Sith, Darth Tenebrous, who was Darth Plagueis' Sith master, was incredibly intelligent. Although his story, like most on this list, is a bit confusing in Star Wars because he has been included in both canon and Legends, it's clear that he possessed both power and knowledge that even prominent Sith such as Darth Sidious did not have. In fact, Tenebrous was able to foresee his own death, and he understood midi-chlorians to a degree no one else did.
Given Aquarius' high intellect as an air sign, and their analytical nature, this sign perfectly matches Tenebrous' unique skill set. In fact, especially given the sign's creative, inventive traits, Aquarius is a perfect fit for Tenebrous, who even created maxi-chlorians himself. While the exact details of Tenebrous' canon story are unclear, it's possible those questions may be answered soon. In a recent trailer for Star Wars: The Acolyte, a mysterious masked Sith figure may be Tenebrous himself (although that's just a theory for now).

Oddly Compassionate (For A Sith), Darth Caedus Is A Perfect Pisces
Darth Cadeus' Turn To The Dark Side Was More Complicated Than Most
Close
Darth Caedus is arguably one of the most complex Sith in Star Wars. Although solely a Legends character, and likely to stay that way given the characters and events of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, Caedus remains an important and popular Sith. In fact, in Legends, Caedus is none other than one of the children of Leia Organa and Han Solo. Born as Jacen Solo, twin to Jaina, Caedus fascinatingly joined the dark side in an attempt to save the galaxy, due to the power the dark side offered.
While certainly a misguided effort, this makes Caedus the best Sith match for Pisces, a sign known for empathy and generosity. Unfortunately, as is the nature of the dark side, those good intentions were corrupted, and Caedus went so far as to kill his aunt, Mara Jade Skywalker. Even so, given his show of selflessness—a prominent trait in Pisces—Darth Caedus is an excellent fit for this sign. Truly, these 12 Sith are the best matches for these respective Zodiac signs, reflecting some of the most significant dark side Force-users in all of Star Wars.
