The personality types that make up the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac are varied and distinct. These animals and what they're meant to symbolize cut to the heart of human nature, and it's easy to see oneself represented in their Chinese zodiac sign.

And the world of The Vampire Diariesis one that tends to operate in extremes. But the extreme natures of all of these characters tend to fit into the Chinese zodiac archetypes very clearly. So, which character on The Vampire Diaries would you be, according to your Chinese zodiac sign?
People born in the year of the Rat are known for being pretty exceptionally clever and resourceful, but they're not well known for being courageous.
So it comes as no surprise that the ultimate TVD villainess, Katherine Pierce, is the perfect vampire representation of those born under the sign of the Rat.
Matt Donovan may just be a human in a world of super powerful supernatural creatures, but that doesn't mean that he isn't strong himself. In fact, he's arguably one of the strongest and most steadfast characters in the series.
So he's a perfect fit for someone born in the year of the Ox, who are typically known for being honest, dependable, and strong in morals and good character.
Damon Salvatore truly embodies the spirit of those who are born in the year of the Tiger. Tigers are known for having a lot of confidence and charm, but they can also be very unpredictable and have a competitive nature that they can't let go of.

Like Damon, often times their individual strengths can be so overwhelming that it can also be a form of weakness.
Bonnie Bennett might just be the most powerful character in the entirety of The Vampire Diaries, but no one would ever know it from the surface.
Like those who are born into the Rabbit sign of the zodiac, Bonnie is quiet, kind, gentle, and responsible. Theirpersonal sincerity is hard to miss.
People born in the year of the Dragon are often considered to be the most powerful personalities according to Chinese lore. Dragons are typically very ambitious and want to change the world, but they can also be harsh and unforgiving.
And that is exactly why Klaus Mikaelson, the hybrid who changed the supernatural world, is the Dragon of TVD.
In Western mythology, snakes don't have a lot of positive associations, but that is not the case in Chinese astrology.
Those who are born in the year of the snake are supposed to be very wise and deep thinkers, and while they tend to keep to themselves, they are good at engaging with others. Clearly no one on The Vampire Diaries fits that description better than Stefan Salvatore.
Those born under the sign of the Horse zodiac are typically bundles of energy. They're usually very clever and witty, and they love being the center of attention.
While Kai is probably one of the least redeemable characters in the history of the series, that doesn't erase his charms, which suit the personality style of the Horse very well.
People under the Goat zodiac sign are normally very kind, somewhat shy, and they have a very strong sense of right and wrong.

Alaric Saltzman did occasionally show that he was willing to bend his morality for the sake of what needed to be done, but his driving force was almost always getting justice for those that he loved.
What tends to differentiate monkey zodiacs from the pack is that they're naughty little rascals, but everyone loves them anyway.
They can be very mischievous and love causing trouble, but ultimately they attract people with their cleverness and wit. That is a pretty apt description of Enzo St. John as well.
Those born under the sign of the Rooster are known for having a lot of pride in themselves, but that pride is often well earned. They're powerful personalities with a lot of courage, and they have the abilities to actually back that up.
And although Tyler Lockwood wasn't always the nicest guy, it's hard to deny that he was good at everything he tried, and he knew it.
Just like their real-life counterparts, people under the Dog zodiac sign are notorious for their unwavering loyalty. They are of course kind and and sincere, but they're not always the best at communication, which can cause trouble in their interpersonal relationships.
Caroline Forbes fits this description to a tee, because despite the fact that she's putting her foot in her mouth on a daily basis, she is a ride or die for her loved ones.
Last but not least, there is the sign of the Pig. Those in the Pig zodiac are extremely compassionate and giving, and while they can often be reluctant to accept help, they're always ready to give it.
Elena wasn't always as selfless as she may have believed herself to be, but there is no doubt that she embodies a lot of the traits of the Pig.
