mario zodiac signs

[Siva]

I'm thinking of making all the zodiac signs from mario characters and objects but am having trouble coming up with ideas for what should be what. Right now I've got mario and Luigi for gemini (I dont think they're twins but bros. is close enough), Princess Peach for Virgo, the fishes from the water world for pisces, fire mario for scorpio, and maybe frog mario for aquarius. I want to incorporate yoshi and maybe bowser but I cant figure what they would be able to represent. I anyone has ideas please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it!

You could do Bowser as a libra in Snes boss fight vehicle: http://fsb.zedge.net/content/5/8/1/9/1- ... 5819-t.jpg You could use them as scale pans and make him have different looks on the scales.

Bowser could make a good Leo, just make his hair more mane like. Yoshi could pull off Aries and Taurus if you change his color and throw horns on him, or you could use Birdo for one of them. Daisy could be Aquarius and frog Mario Capricorn.... good luck with Sagittarius and Cancer though.

Cancer could be from super mario bros 2, one of the bosses is a crab (though i'm drawing a blank on which world)

The crab boss is Clawgrip from World 5.
I wrote out all the signs here (including the ideas you originally wanted to use) just to keep my thoughts straight while I helped brainstorm.

Aries - Wario (an ambitious leader who has built a gaming empire of his own, independent of Mario himself (wario world/ware) where he is a main character), or any other character who functions as a leader in the series would work well here
Taurus - Thwomp! (Made of stone and almost impossible to budge. If you get in its way, watch out! )
Gemini - Mario/Luigi, or alternatively, any of the characters which come in palette-swapped colors (like the Toads from New Super Mario Bros Wii, Koopa Troopas, Yoshis, etc)
Cancer - A Spiny or a Koopa Troopa? (to represent Cancer's defensive nature and its love of home, since it's carried on the back of the critter?) or a Shy Guy (tough to get out of its shell?)
Leo - Maybe the Angry Sun from the Super Mario 3 desert level (since Leo is ruled by the Sun)? Any character/enemy that is gold-colored may also work, since I think Leo's color is golden yellow. (Princess Daisy wears yellow, so she might work?)
Virgo - Princess Peach
Libra - The idea of Bowser in his boss fight vehicle is an awesome idea for this, Lemming!
Scorpio - Bomb-Omb (to represent Scorpio's potentially deadly temper?) or a Boo (since Scorp will get you when you aren't looking?)
Sagittarius - Red Yoshi (since he throws fireballs and Sag is an archer and a fire sign) ridden by another human character of your choice (to incorporate the centaur half man/half beast aspect of the sign)?
Capricorn - A Hammer Brother? (Since Capricorns are hard workers, a hammer is a tool, and very practical to boot since Cap is an earth sign?)
Aquarius - Frog Mario
Pisces - Cheep Cheeps (I believe that's what the fish are called)

Hope this at least helps the brainstorming a bit! I hope you will post pictures of the finished project when you make it.

just randomly looking at this... i love my scorpio star sign on here lol

Not that it has anything to do with anything, I just want to complain about being a Libra. Seriously, who wants to be represented by a SCALE? Especially when one has a weight problem like I do. :-) There. Done complaining.

AWESOME idea! You'll have to keep us updated as you choose/work out patterns and such.
