Jesus's birthday is December 25th. That is during the sign of Capricorn. I can see how Jesus would be like a Capricorn. He had a really practical skill (craftsman). But I have read some peoples opinions that jesus was more of a Pisces, hence the self sacrifice and everything. What do y'all think?

Jesus was not born on Dec 25th, most likely around March. The Dec 25th celebration was originally Pagan but the Roman emperor decided to make it Christian when Christianism became the empires official religion.

I remember reading also that it would be unlikely at the end of the year cause its too cold for shepherds to tend the flock, this was more likely to happen by the end of the winter, which would make him Aries.

I vote Pisces because there is so much symbolism of fishes in Christian tradition and the onset of Christianity roughly coincides with the onset of Pisces.

The Age of Pisces-- which precedes the age of Aquarius (goes in reverse.. I know).

Religiously, IMHO - He's the son of God. To me that makes him transcend Astrology... as he comes from somewhere bigger, wider in scope, and more powerful. - This is MY take on it, not saying any of the rest of you have to share it.

Must agree, here-- though, it is fun to speculate. 🙂

The reason why I think Jesus could be a Capricorn though is because Capricorn is the strongest sign and I think the idea of the strongest being unable to escape their destiny as a sacrifice is the tragic, and beautiful, message of Christianity. "The strong will be humbled". Its a very communist message if you think about it.
