The love for animals generally brings with it a strong sense of compassion, companionship, and a need to care for all things natural. In your birth chart, caring for creatures falls with your moon sign in the 6th house, ruled by Venus and Mercury.
contributes to this as the service sign meaning you tend towards a life of service, including caring for animals, both domestic and wild. Mercury, in this aspect of our personality and character traits, brings intelligence and how we express ourselves and connect with the world around us. If your moon is in the 6th house, you are going to have a strong connection with animals, though there are many other aspects that could affect this as well.
Strong Connections to Animals

To take this idea a little bit further, it is also believed that the animal that is connected with your astrological sign could also be your spirit animal, an animal that you will have a stronger special connection to and which also can describe certain traits present in your personality. For example, if your sign is the Aries, you will be brave, a take-charge kind of person, just like the ram.
Scorpio
The first sign I chose for their connection to animals, all animals, not just domesticated, is the water sign – Scorpio. Their strong intuitive abilities do not only work for people but all living beings they are in contact with. They can sense the needs and desires, the feelings of most if not all living beings around them. It is believed that they are often able to communicate with beasts, especially their own pets, and can gain a clear understanding of their thoughts and needs. Scorpio’s passion gives them the drive to not only care for the animals around them but often become advocates for the care of animals.
Taurus
Taurus, an earth sign represented by the bull, is known to be calm and patient with an unmatched protective strength that permeates their total being. They are drawn to the elements in nature and it’s calm energy that mirrors what a Taurean strives to be. Not only do they find immense comfort in the company of pets, they are extremely protective and work to make sure that the animals they are connected with have the same level of comfort that Taurus thrives in as well.
Taureans also carry within their being a unique relationship to nature through their connection to the mythical creature, the dryad. The dryad is known to protect his world with strength and loyalty and this connection adds another aspect to the Taurean’s character of their caring of all creatures in the world around them.
Aquarius
Last but most definitely not least, Aquarius has a unique connection to the creatures around them. Aquarians, often animal rights activists, are able to bond with the animals and creatures they come into contact with like no other sign. It has been noted that the Dolphin is most like the Aquarius as they are intelligent, social, and tend to work together for the common good every everyone and everything around them. Aqaurians, upon making that connection with animals see them as their friends and treat them as such, especially when it comes to their own pets or the pets of their friends and family.
Wrapping it Up
Cancer, Pisces, Virgo, and Leo also have strong connections to animals and are often found with pets of their own. I chose the three I chose due to their additional desire to care for all animals and their ability to connect to them, not just the domesticated animals around us.
As a Scorpio myself, I can attest to our connection to animals in the desire and joy I take in caring for my own animals which consist of two dogs, two cats, a lion-head rabbit who lives in our living room, and 23 ducks that we breed. We also live in the woods in the Pacific NW where we cater to the plethora of wildlife that frequents our property and the wider area around us including bears, cougars, deer, and all of the small wildlife we see and don’t see.
