Astrology is fun. This is coming from a Gemini whose horoscope is never right. This aside, I thought it would be fun to combine a fun hobby with one of my favorite shows. (Mostly, thought, it's because I just finished Season 5 and am currently having withdrawals.) With that, here's your fav NYPD Precinct described using zodiac signs.
**Just a quick shoutout to NBC for saving this gem of a show. Also, if astrology bugs, you should go watch this show anyway because there's representation and it makes me cackle on a regular basis.**
1. Jake Peralta - Aries
Lord knows this boy is always on his Aries bullshit. Whether it's lighting things on fire, being an unknown level of impulsive or making everything into a competition, he always finds a way to make it Aries season.
2. Amy Santiago - Virgo
A classic Virgo: everything has its place, and, if it isn't in its place, then the world might as well burst into flames. While kind and hardworking, she's overly critical of others, but, most of all, herself. And no, you can't borrow her pens--you're just gonna mess them up.
3. Capt. Raymond Holt - Capricorn
If you ain't talking your credit score, I don't wanna talk. Captain Holt makes sure that practical matters are prioritized above all else. What's the line between discipline and condescending? Capricorns don't care. They draw the friggin' line.
4. Charles Boyle - Cancer
Charles' undying loyalty to his friends makes him a textbook Cancer. Especially his unconditional love to Jake. Only a Cancer would willingly get frosted tips to match and support their best friend.
5. Rosa Diaz - Taurus
Reliable, patient and kick-ass. Maybe she won't open up to you emotionally, but Rosa is one of the best long-term friends you could have. Don't freak her out though, y'all, this girl is an earth sign; any sudden change will get you a punch in the throat.
6. Sgt. Terry Jeffords - Libra
The Libra is cooperative and diplomatic, perfect for being a Sergeant as well as the voice of reason for the rest of the squad. Lord knows that he can draw inspiration from anything, be it a good book, puzzle or a yogurt.
7. Gina Linetti - Leo
While creative and passionate, Leos are stubborn and will often refuse to comply with others if they are not being actively praised or admired. Makes sense as to why Gina does everything on her own terms. You will always see this girl come out on top.
Whether you think astrology is a literal science or complete bs, there's no doubt that it's fun to talk about. Go watch "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," it's on Hulu and is absolutely wonderful. And, as a bonus, I'm pretty sure Hitchcock and Scully are two halves of Gemini twins. Ya know, they just eat more and like to take their clothes off.
