INFJ and Zodiac
[dropcap]E[/dropcap]veryone has a zodiac sign and you likely knew what yours was long before you ever discovered the Myers Briggs. Some people don’t completely identify with their star sign personality traits but everybody is generally on board with the descriptions about their MBTI type. You can check out this poll surveying people’s zodiac signs and MBTI types. This is understandable since your zodiac sign is determined by your date of birth (something you had no control over) whereas your Myers Briggs type is determined by your self-determined preferences. There is little to no science supporting a cosmic influence on one’s personality except for a few studies showing that people with certain mental disorders such as schizophrenia tend to be born in winter months (especially February). Personally, I don’t take astrology seriously but I do take an interest in it. I’ve noticed that there are many MBTI snobs who are staunchly against it and there are some “astrology people” who similarly view the MBTI as bogus and flawed. I imagine that most people fall somewhere in the middle with an interest in one and a mild indifference for the other. For the INFJ types out there, here are interpretations of 12 different versions of the INFJ personality based on the 12 zodiac star signs.
INFJ LEO
INFJ LEO – A leonine INFJ is liable to have a sunny temperament and radiate lots of warmth and charm. They may display a happy face to the world and a calm congenial friendliness that attracts others to them. They likely pay special attention to their image and take interest in cultivating an active public/social life. An INFJ Leo is likely to be very creative, dramatic and emotional and even temperamental at times. They may be more susceptible to jealousy and insecurity when they don’t get the attention, appreciation or admiration they expect. Even though they are introverts, they probably desire more attention than the typical INFJ and may extravert themselves for longer periods before they need to withdraw and recharge their batteries again. An INFJ Leo might be especially noble and altruistic. They give of themselves freely but they know when to draw the line and do not allow themselves be used or exploited by manipulators or greedy people. They are very generous with their time and very compassionate and loving. This type of INFJ may exude a bit more confidence and sometimes come across as being pompous or self-righteous.

INFJ Aries here…upon checking my natal chart, I have a Cancer ascendant (Mars in Cancer, too) with a Libra moon. Basically, I’m a walking contradiction. I’m ambitious but cautious. I have lots to say but keep to myself. I mostly act based on intuition more so than instinct. I rather stay home than go on an adventure, although the idea seems nice. I’m highly creative, especially with music and writing. I feel everything, and I’m so hard on myself because of high expectations of myself. I often worry about making others happy rather than myself. Im often misunderstood in more ways than one. I’m such a perfectionist…In social settings, I prefer one-on-one rather than a group. I hate small talk. I don’t like to be rushed. I only get mad when provoked (a rare sighting of an Aries that can control their temper)…yeah, I would like to think I’m a rare gem considering my type and sign combination.
I’m a little hurt there’s not much information regarding this combination because it is so conflicting. Take what you will with my comment. I doubt anyone will respond…
I am an Aries INFJ with a Taurus Moon and Cancer Rising. Taurus baring some similarity to Libra as they both share Venus as a planetary ruler. I definitely feel like a contradiction of a person due to the diversity in my chart. The lazy perfectionism of Aries and stubbornly loving traits of a Taurus, and the emotional and ambitious Cancer. It’s a lot t handle in one personality sometimes.
Cat, I’m also an INFJ Aries with a Libra moon. I can relate to most of your comment. I believe that my experiences as a child have guided me to the personality type of INFJ. Aries+INFJ? just another INFJ paradox! 🙂
Very interesting article! I am an infj who is a Sagi sun with Virgo moon and Taurus rising with a stellium in Scorpio.
I am curious about infj connection with the moon sign. Would love to get some insight
I am an INFJ/Aries and I have to agree with Cat Rehbock – That is exactly how i am, as well !!
I am a INFJ/Cancerean with a Libra moon and Libra Rising. Talk about over emotional geeez
I’m an INFJ Pisces, Moon in Aries and Rising in Scorpio. So i kinda think my signs are built to be an infj, i swear that if i wasn’t Aries moon i’d be less extraverted and be a full introvert instead of an ambivert.
I’m INFJ GEM SUN CANCER MOON TAURUS RISING AND I CONFUSE MYSELF LOL
This article is pretty interesting…i m an INFJ with sagittarius sun and Scorpio moon…and it was so true about the scorpio infj…?
INFJ/Scorpio. Everything that was said was spot on and i’m really glad i’m not the only one out here in this mysterious galaxy. 🙂
I’m an INFJ/Scorpio. After reading this article, i finally feel understood. It feels good to be not so alone in this very alone galaxy we live in.
I’m an INFJ with a Scorpio sun, Libra moon, and Cancer rising…lol could someone explain what all this means??
Im a Cancer sun sign with Pisces Moon sign. Both are water signs and Pisces ruled by neptune. I have a personal planet venus aspecting neptune the planet of spirituality and sensitivity. I am an INFJ. Reading my natal chart is about the same as reading the description of an INFJ. Highly sensitive people can be seen in Astrology. I believe we are born our personality type.
Great!
I am a INFJ Sagittarius, and I feel that most of what was said was true. The only thing that isn’t that true about me is the optimism. I usually am fairly negative and expect the worse naturally, and I hope that I’m not he only one who feels this way. Sometimes I feel like I’m half Sagittarius and half Cancer, because I feel very deeply and am a pretty sensitive person.
I am a INFJ Capricorn.
I am an INFJ Leo and you are corrrect with the way you wrote how I am. I can be very intimidating at times.
Interesting personality I would think. Leo INFJ here.
We are twinsies Girl! I have the exact same as you! Cancer ASC, Aries Sun, Libra moon. Very rare from what I’ve read. I’m INFJ too!
INFJ GEMINI here yes the mood swings and flightiness is real haha
This is for Cat – I too am a walking contradiction
Aries sun sign with a Libra rising sign and a cancer moon sign….. I have wishy washy thoughts and feelings alot !!
Wow, I’m a INFJ Sagittarius. I never met another INFJ. I understand you completely. Its very cool knowing someone else is experiencing the same thing. I,also, feel everything, so much so it’s overwhelming. It’s like I know people better than they know themselves, especially my family.
I’m a INFJ Aries. I have never related to Aries, but I do have Aquarius rising and I relate to my rising so much more! I have felt different my whole life and does not like trends, but I do not dress weird or anything.
I am an Aries INFJ with a Cancer moon and Cancer ascendant.
Yep, my family, work, and many friends think of me as an extravert and are quite surprised when I tell them I am a definite introvert. Haha. I have been told I can be forceful or arrogant. Though as I reached my twenties, I mellowed and became more balanced with my softer sides. I’m now in my early 30’s. I am not the most empathetic INFJ, though I can be quite empathetic. I can be somewhat impulsive, and prone to working mostly in energy bursts. I can be dramatic (lol) and insist my emotions be acknowledged or validated, and can be pretty simple that way. I like awards, prizes, and recognition, but also don’t want the limelight and often feel burdened with responsibilities. I struggle with having ambitions, but then lacking motivation to do them. I’m learning to integrate the contradicting facets of my personality.
I’m an Aquarius INFJ &have to admit it is pretty spot on . I also have a obsession nearly with MBTI &a mild interest in Astrology as I find it intriguing &accurate to a point ,I also take it with a grain of salt.
I am a INFJ (Cancer♋/Dog in Chinese Zodiac) I am 80% Introverted 20% a social butterfly. If I am not exasperated. As such, I love my alone time. Faith, Family & Finances are pivitol to me. I am witty, observant, and very opinionated. I am a creature of habit with hint of random. My love language in sequential dominance order are as followed; 1.Gifts, 2.Acts of Service, 3.Quality Time, 4. Physical Touch & 5.Affirmation.I do not believe in astrology however, I do utilize it as a tool to understand people/sterotype them. I am a compartimentalist….hmmm? lmbo? I think I just made up my own word. In other words, I categorize absolutely everything including people.I love order, logic and analyze everything. I can conquer being a INFJ is by far isolating. I frequently feel misunderstood.Although I attract the rejected,the lost sheep, the misfit, weirdos, or the outcasts I love the mystery of getting to know them.Adds a little excitement to my life. ?I am magnetic in nature.People are always drawn to me because of my energy, ora, joy or the God in me.#Annointing People always tell me your so easy to talk too! ?Meanwhile, in my head I had 50 other conversations with this person ALL by myself. I love stability but Im spontaneous enough to take a drastic risk.My motto is live and let live, whats the worse that can happen? Someone else always has it worse. I am very resilient. I am very complicated to understand hence why I am single have yet to find my ENFP ?. I am a nerd/hippie at ❤. ??/?? Female.(Florida)
Hey Kitty, I’m also INFJ/Aquarius, and I also have a mild obsession with MBTI lol. Feels pretty contradictory that INFJs are very emotional when Aquarius are pretty unemotional, kinda confusing.
I’m an INFJ – Cancer with a Leo Rising and Sag. Moon. If there were ever a perfect storm of an INFJ predicted outcome then I think this would be it; astrologically speaking.
I do not say this with pride. And I’d ask for a degree of humility in saying what I just said, because the path and journey have been (and still is) incredibly odious. I have cursed my own life far more than I have seen any value in it (personally). And that said, I love humanity in that, for all joy and sorrow we all face together, I can say “I and you are all human. Therefore, have courage in compassion through grit and a daring to keep moving…keep living…don’t stop…don’t stop…don’t stop seeking the loving way.” In this, I will not overtly define what “Love” is. How can I? To me, It’s what helps us “Live Together” without destroying. Are we alive? Do we struggle to live in partnership with one another? Is this demonstrated even in are greatest oppositions? Yes!
Love as I know it is this…or at least may be a degree of love in as much as I will allow myself to define such a noble human power.
God Bless you all.
And Peace to you…
In love.
I am an INFJ with a Pisces Stellium (including Sun, Moon, North Node.) male ruled by Dragons. Any ideas on how to constructively exit this joy ride? Haha. However, this has been a awesome whet stone.
I finally reached a point where I view my labels as a whet stone…something to help shape me and is not me and is me at the same time. Hermetic axiom…all apparent opposites can be reconciled. For me the difference between “heaven and hell” (I do not believe in either…but the concept works here) is my attitude. .
Same here
Ok, I thought I was commenting here before but clicked under another one. INFJ Capricorn, on the Aquarius cusp. After reading the INFJ Aquarius description, I definitely am the behind the scenes person for a cause I hold dear. I am a mixture of the Capricorn INFJ and Aquarius INFJ for sure, not 100% of both. I do think INFJ can be hard to peg though and we are DEFINITELY misunderstood by others (that don’t know much about Myers Briggs especially) Another combo had a comment about HSP. My SIL believes I am an HSP like she and her daughter are, although she says there could be some overlap because of my PTSD. (And of course INFJ, we do not fit in so there’s that too.. =/) I also believe although some of who we are is definitely unchanging over our lifetime I also believe nurture can alter it. (Not to mention just basic maturity from what we learn as we age) I am not who I was 5 years ago, 10 years, etc. I am newly 32 and have also gone back to a bit of how I was before my PTSD, although having an adult onset of anaphylactic food allergies has added a whole new slew of PTSD triggers. Ha, anyone else struggling with overwhelming other introverts (and some extroverts- my mom mostly) and extroverts thinking you’re wishy washy? Husband is ambivert and ENTJ.. life is interesting. Parents won’t take Myers Briggs, but I am finding a couple more things in common with them now that I’m an adult. Dad is definitely introverted but a professional, sales personality that isn’t afraid of public speaking. Mom is mostly extroverted with moments of vulnerability and can be embarrassed. She cares when other people think negatively about her. Dad does not. Mom is Sagittarius-Capricorn cusp and Dad is Aquarius-Pisces cusp. (Which we JUST determined a few months ago, those descriptions of them are spot on, especially dad’s -“seemingly selfish to those not in inner circle but caring to people within” I’ve recently decided to be ‘within’ as I needed a relationship with my dad.) That sort of explains how I am similar yet different – some zodiac overlapping traits but some very different. Also, they are divorced because their differences were (understandably)difficult to be happy with. Ok, talkative introvert needs to shut up now!
Wow I am also an INFJ/Scorpio Sun, Libra Moon! I suggest looking more into the INFJ side of things since MTBI is more reliable than astrology IMO. I have a learned a tremendous amount about myself through the Myers Briggs test and it definitely explains a lot about my struggles in life. Look up the “SE Grip,” basically it is how INFJ’s deal with stress, we overindulge in the sensory world more often than not in a negative way. Pretty interesting stuff.
I am virgo rising, libra sun with INFJ…
I’m an aquarius infj okay sounds kinda weird but the similarities are amazing I know aquarius is unemotional and aloof but infj’ aren’t known for smiling needlessly either neither likes idle chit chat both want to solve big world issues both are kind hearted loving individuals both can see through your soul and determine if you are good or bad in a micro second both have few people in there close circle of friends both are miss understand by the majority both almost have an uncanny perception of future events that they themselves can’t get there own heads around both love solitude both feel isolation especially in crowds both are highly intelligent both yearning for that special loved one (AKA who isn’t lol) both have quirky sense of humor both can appear childish because they question everything in life as would a young child and finally both are always right in what they say and believe in
Did I miss anything out?
