♈️ Aries — Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom Park
- March 21st – April 19th
- Element: Fire
When it comes to the pioneering, courageous, and unstoppable spirit of an Aries, there is no better attraction match than the rambunctious and roaring Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Known as “the wildest ride in the wilderness,” Big Thunder Mountain Railroad races guests through a haunted gold mine, full of thrills, chills, and surprises – a perfect trifecta for this feisty fire sign. If you are an Aries, you will love the twists and turns of this high-speed coaster as well as the exciting and witty western setting.
♉️ Taurus — The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- April 20th – May 21st
- Element: Earth
Fierce, observant, and determined, Tauruses are known to desire the finer things in life, which gets them into trouble from time to time. This sentiment is a big reason why we paired this rather regal earth sign with The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. In this attraction, guests find themselves in a once ritzy, now rundown 1930’s hotel, reliving the nightmare multi-story elevator drop of the glamorous guests before them. Allured by the spellbinding charm of the striking and spooky scenery, Tauruses will stubbornly power through any fear as they are propelled up and down an elevator shaft in the 5th dimension. If you are a Taurus, you’ll treasure your time in the Twilight Zone.
♊️ Gemini — DINOSAUR at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
- May 22nd – June 21st
- Element: Air
The high thrills, high stakes, and high flying surprises of DINOSAUR make this iconic attraction a Gemini dream come true. In DINOSAUR, guests are secretly sent by the charming Dr. Seeker on a rogue mission to find an Iguanodon… mere minutes before the meteor strikes. Much like Dr. Seeker, Geminis are extroverted, clever, and known to fake a smile to conceal an alternative motive – which is why we selected this attraction as the Gemini favorite. If you are a Gemini, you will see yourself in the charismatic characters, enjoy the humorous attraction narration, and appreciate the scientific angle of the adventure.
♋️ Cancer — Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin at SeaWorld Orlando
- June 22nd – July 22nd
- Element: Water
Cancers are nurturing, empathetic, and loving, which is why Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin was a no-brainer choice for this sincere water sign. Following a baby penguin named Puck, guests on Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin glide and twirl in a beautiful ice oasis as they join little Puck on his very first adventure. If you are a Cancer, you’ll love the mere adorableness of baby Puck and find your heart heavily involved in his thrilling journey. Best of all, since Cancers have a soft side for goofy creatures, you’ll go wild for the post-ride exhibit where real-life penguins happily waddle around in their freezing-cold paradise.
♌️ Leo — Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride at Universal Studios Florida
- July 23rd – August 22nd
- Element: Fire
Oozing with star quality, Leos are the main character, making Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride an easy choice for this fire sign’s surefire favorite. In the beloved dark ride coaster, guests speed to escape an Egyptian tomb set after a captured crewmember warns that the deadly curse in the movie’s plot is, in fact, real. If you are a Leo, you will love being the center of this cinematic special effect frenzy due to your survivalist, ambitious, and drama-loving nature.
♍️ Virgo — Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress at Magic Kingdom Park
- August 23rd – September 22nd
- Element: Earth
Virgos and Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress are a match made in heaven. Considering the meticulous and forward-thinking ways of Virgos and this attraction’s celebration of technological advancements in the 20th century, there is no doubt this practical earth sign would enjoy watching an entire show about progress. If you are a Virgo, you’ll also love the legacy of this attraction, as it was thought up by Walt Disney himself. Why? Because you can respect the history of it all. Plus, in classic Virgo fashion, if you’re feeling a little fussy and need a break from the sun, a ride on Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress also means 20 minutes of air conditioning – an invention heavily featured in the show!
♎️ Libra — Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover at Magic Kingdom Park
- September 23rd – October 22nd
- Element: Air
Libras are chill and love to go with the flow, so Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover was the obvious choice for this easy-going air sign. Better known as simply the PeopleMover, this highway in the sky takes guests on a breezy tour of Tomorrowland. If you are a Libra, you will love the flow of this attraction as well as the sneak peeks of the exciting adventures in store. Plus, the PeopleMover rarely has a long wait, perfect for Libras, as they tend to get impatient.
♏️ Scorpio — Kraken at SeaWorld Orlando
- October 23rd – November 21st
- Element: Water
Perhaps the most intense sign of the zodiac, Scorpios are sure to love the mighty Kraken coaster at SeaWorld Orlando, the most intense attraction on this list. Paralleling with this forceful water sign’s mysterious yet powerful ways, the Kraken is an extreme thrill ride themed after the mythic sea monster fabled to have struck inconsolable fear in sailors at sea. If you are a Scorpio, you’ll love the rush this floorless coaster will give you with its highway speeds and stomach-dropping plummets. Needless to say, the Kraken will surely quench Scorpios’ thirst for heart-pounding adrenaline.
♐️ Sagittarius — Jurassic World VelociCoaster at Universal’s Islands of Adventure
- November 22nd – December 21st
- Element: Fire
The VelociCoaster is this fire sign’s perfect fit attraction, and we’re not only saying that because “Sagittarius” sounds like a name of a dinosaur species. If you are a Sagittarius, it is safe to assume that you frequently find yourself in unbelievable situations that always make for a great story later. A ride on Jurassic World VelociCoaster mirrors such chaos, making it our top attraction choice for this energetic fire sign. VelociCoaster is the apex predator of coasters and takes guests on a thrilling trek through Jurassic Park alongside escaped, reckless raptors. With their adventurous, blindly optimistic, and impulsive nature, Sagittariuses will adore the rush of the hunt and fall in love with the story and sights of this impressive new coaster.
♑️ Capricorn — Mission: SPACE at Epcot
- December 22nd – January 19th
- Element: Earth
Hardworking and intelligent, Capricorns love a mission accomplished, which is why we paired this earth sign with Epcot’s Mission Space. As part of this stellar attraction, guests play a pivotal role in blasting off and exploring space. If you are a Capricorn, you will enjoy the interactiveness of this ride, as the thrilling involvement will leave you feeling incredibly accomplished. Plus, Mission Space is all about teamwork, which Capricorns enjoy and excel at due to their trustworthy, decisive, and patient traits.
♒️ Aquarius — Avatar Flight of Passage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom
- January 20th – February 18th
- Element: Air
Friendly and free-spirited, Aquarians are sure to enjoy the otherworldly thrills of Avatar Flight of Passage. This 3D flight allows guests to soar and explore on their own mountain banshee, taking part in a highly regarded Na’vi rite of passage. The mere ethereal beauty of the landscapes in this award-winning attraction alone is enough for an Aquarius to want to ride again and again; however, the emphasis on the thrills of nature, the spirit of ceremony, and honoring the Na’vi are what will truly resonate with this air sign. If you are an Aquarius, this attraction will speak to your artistic and inquisitive side.
♓️ Pisces — Under the Sea ~ Journey of The Little Mermaid
- February 19th – March 20th
- Element: Water
Perhaps you find it a little fishy that we have such an on-the-nose selection for Pisces, but we assure you that a lot of thought was put into this choice. Yes, the oceanic imagery is a major plus, but it is the whirling colors, upbeat music, and the compelling storytelling of this attraction that make it a must-do for this artistic, compassionate, and intuitive water sign. If you are a Pisces, you will love plunging under the sea and watching Ariel’s empowering story retold like never before due to your creative spirit and emotional nature.
