Count Dracula - Mr. Bloodsucker himself. Dracula truly is immortal - it's been over 100 years since we were introduced to him by Bram Stoker and his story is one we love. So what do I think Dracula's chart would look like? Let's see! Very Venus
Dracula is described as being refined, charming - very Venus, wouldn't you say? Which brings me to a Taurus or Libra Rising or Venus in the 1st house. Dracula is also described as having fits of anger that he quickly tries to shut down, so I gravitate toward the Venus in the 1st house, and in Aries, with an Aries Rising.
Venus in Aries in the 1st house can come across super charming, and they can lead you to your doom with ease. Venus in Aries can also be super selfish, which Dracula is, and can enjoy the idea of taking over the world, which Dracula wants to do by turning everyone into vampires. I like a 2nd house Taurus Sun for Dracula, likely late in sign to correspond to his wealth (planets late in sign can be associated with success; Taurus and the 2nd house rule your wealth). It also gives him the ability to take the long approach, and Taurus can be smoldering with rage at times.Plus, Taurus being ruled by Venus adds to his charm So Scorpionic
I feel Dracula would have a Moon, Mars, and Pluto stellium, the three of them conjunct in the Scorpio 8th house. The 8th house and Scorpio are well-known for rage; Pluto is the natural ruler, while Mars the traditional ruler. Mars and Pluto are both tied to a strong desire for world domination, a propensity for violence, and blood lust.
The Moon in the mix makes it important for Dracula on an emotional level. He's also proud of his warrior lineage, which would be seen with the Moon, ruler of our family. A little Neptunian Magic
Dracula is said to have studied magic, so we need to throw in something for that. He could have Neptune in Pisces and the 12th house, all naturally ties together (Neptune and Pisces rule the 12th house), and the rulers of magic. It would make magic very natural for him, and help explain all of his powers.
I'd also like to see Black Moon Lilith in play, which is associated with witchery, maybe conjunct Neptune in Pisces in the 12th house, amplifying the powers he has. With the two conjunct in the 12th, this would also explain why he's weaker during the day since the 12th is associated with the night (as people with 12th house personal planets can attest to, night owls they are!).

ARIES
Aries is energy, fire, heat, strength. Try a fireman, cop, or military uniform. An athlete could work too. For the ladies, how about Wonder Woman? A Hell's Angel? An angel in spandex. TAURUS Taurus is earthy, sensual. Try a chef or some sort of food (like a twinkie, pumpkin, banana - peel me!). Taurus also rules teachers - hot for teacher, anyone? If you're doing something as a couple, try Adam and Eve. GEMINI Gemini is mental, dual. Is an actual twin too literal? Maybe the Olsen twins. Or the Bobsey twins. Or the Minnesota Twins. How about Two-face from Batman? Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Or do like Michael Scott from The Office and attach a second head to your shoulder. You could also be a newsman or a famous writer. CANCER Cancer is emotional, nurturing. Mother Earth? Mother Goose? Father Time? June Cleaver, Paul Bunyan, a shrink. I also like someone dressed in a suit of armor. Just don't stab anyone when you get crabby. LEO Leo is drama, royal. Of course we know Leo is the lion, so you can go literal. You can be a famous actor/actress, or dress up as a king/queen. A couple could be William and Kate. How about an action hero? I can kind of see a werewolf here too. VIRGO Virgo is hard-working, service-oriented. Break out the sexy secretary or naughty librarian or Catholic schoolgirl look. Virgo gets all the classically kinky costumes since it rules chastity AND perversions (how contradicting). How about an accountant? Virgo rules small animals - a vet? Or a small animal. LIBRA Libra is fair, social. Libra's the scales. Try a judge (with nothing on underneath?). Libra is social - how about a Kardashian? Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kevin, any socialite will do. Libra is also the sign of partnerships, so it could be good to go as a famous duo: Sonny and Cher, Captain and Tenille, Brooks and Dunn, Thelma and Louise. No driving off a cliff! SCORPIO Scorpio is secretive, dark. Scorpio would be the classic witch or vampire. Catwoman or a dominatrix could work (basically any costume requiring black leather, spandex, and a whip). How about a spy? Or a biker? That can be Aquarius too. SAGITTARIUS Sagittarius is open, free. Sagittarius loves to fly, so try a pilot or Superman. Sagittarius loves the outdoors, so maybe a hiker, outdoorsman, a jungle person. Mowgli and Baloo? Tarzan and Jane? You can also try a lawyer or any kind of preacher/priest/nun etc. CAPRICORN Capricorn is career and social status minded. Capricorn can be a business person. Politician. The Obamas. Doctor. Dr. Phil. Dr. Drew. Capricorn rules older people - grandparents. Capricorn is obsessed with it's social standing - a real housewife of Beverly Hills? Atlanta? D.C.? Sheboygan? AQUARIUS Aquarius is ethereal, rebel. Here's an angel. Maybe not too pure. Too pure would be Pisces. You can try being a geek. Emo. Punk. Think any kind of rebel. Aquarius rules electronics if you want to go for an inanimate object. Push my buttons. PISCES Pisces is sweet, peaceful. You can be a hippie (Aquarius too). A gypsy. A nymph. Omanic. Pisces rules water: sailor, mermaid, aquatic animal. Pisces rules music: musician, dancer. Pisces rules feet: uh, be a giant toe? Halloween Asteroids
- Circe (34 on astro.com) and Medea (212), both enchantresses. My Medea is conjunct my Pluto and AC - watch out or I'll put a spell on you!
- Hekate (100), goddess of witches. My Hekate is in Leo and the 10th house, so I should be a loud witch (lol). It's square my Saturn - wonder if I angered a witch at some point? - Transylvania (1537), the home of Dracula. Mine is in Virgo and the 11th house, so I'm a careful vampire with lots of vampire friends. LOL! Actually, I'd guess that perhaps this asteroid shows where you let people suck the life out of you, or you suck the life out of others? - Merlin (2598) and Excalibur (9499). Had to throw these wizard-y ones in! These are actually prominent in my chart, with Merlin conjunct my north node and Excalibur conjunct my Venus. I do love the story! - Lucifer (1930) - the Devil himself! Or fallen angel, whatever you want to go with.

Aries Relationships have been a bit of a problem for you lately, with more than your fair share of communication problems, and you can start the month feeling frustrated with the people in your life. Things improve as the month goes on with Mercury retrograde ending and want new moon in your relationship sector and the Sun entering your intimacy sector. You take your relationships seriously, and you feel that it'll all get better soon. If in a relationship, give more attention to your partner, and if single, go for someone serious. You have no patience for immature people. General horoscopes are always meant for entertainment purposes only. For a more accurate view, read your Sun sign, Rising sign, and Moon sign.
Aries October 2015 Monthly Horoscope Venus enters earth sign Virgo on October 8th, and you can take pleasure in the work that you do, finding more joy in it, or feel that you want to be doing work that you love and push to make that happen. With Mars and Jupiter already in Virgo, this is an excellent time for you work-wise, and you can create any sort of work opportunity that you want with a little elbow grease. Venus here now gives you some extra pleasant energy, and you can focus on having the kind of work life that you want. You can also focus on your daily life, improving your lifestyle and creating a routine that helps you to accomplish more and become more efficient, or focus on your health by doing the right thing and making good choices for your body. When you make those good choices, you can see payoffs quickly now. General horoscopes are always meant for entertainment purposes only. For a more accurate view, read your Sun sign, Rising sign, and Moon sign.
Aries You can enjoy working more this month with Venus entering your work sector, and with Mars and Jupiter here as well, you have great work energy this month. You can have the best opportunities that you've had in years, and the energy around you is conducive to creating the kind of work life that you want and will make you happy. All you need to do is be clear about what you want, and as you take steps, you can find that things fall your way easily. With Halloween coming, I couldn't help but be drawn to writing a candy by sign article! So, what candy can each Zodiac sign be drawn to? A note about food preferences:
Note, you can read your Sun sign, but you may be better off reading your Venus sign (what you take pleasure in), or your Ceres sign (the ruler of food). And some may find your Moon sign is better (especially if you're an emotional eater!).
If you have a planet conjunct (aligned with) Ceres, that may be what you gravitate toward more as well. That would be: Sun: Leo Moon: Cancer Mercury: Gemini or Virgo Venus: Taurus or Libra Mars: Aries Jupiter: Sagittarius Saturn: Capricorn Uranus: Aquarius Neptune: Pisces Pluto: Scorpio Also note, Saturn conjunct Ceres or Venus may show you not having much of a sweet tooth at all. Uranus conjunct may show you like to experiment, and Neptune conjunct may show it constantly changes. Meanwhile Sun, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, or Pluto conjunct can show a super sweet tooth! It can feel personal with the Sun, be a hobby with Venus, be something you're enthusiastic about with Mars, be something that brings happiness with Jupiter (though also a bigger waistline!), or be something you're passionate about with Pluto.
