Horoscope: What Halloween candy are the signs?

By Josie Simon, October 27 2022

Whether handing out candy, watching a scary movie with your sneaky link, or studying for midterms on Oct. 31, we all have the same question — what Halloween candy best represents me? To answer this, we turn to the stars.

SCORPIO

(Oct 23 – Nov 22):

You’re cunning, ruthless, vindictive and secretive. There is an air of mystery around you that others can’t help but admire. Like a Caramilk bar, you’re feared by most.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov 23 – Dec 21):

You’re an independent risk-taker who loves honest and intellectual conversations. You’re a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, optimistic, outgoing, but sometimes over-confident.

CAPRICORN

(Dec 22 – Jan 19):

Your enthusiasm and drive inspire those around you. Like a Snickers bar, you’re emotionally complex and bold. However, you often crack under pressure.

AQUARIUS

(Jan 20 – Feb 18):

You’re hesitant to express your true feelings to the outside world. Like M&M’s, you appear strong on the surface — but, you’re emotionally fragile deep inside.

PISCES

(Feb 19 – Mar 20):

Since you were late to your ECON class last Wednesday, your psychic abilities have intensified. Kit Kat bars are similarly supernatural. Like you, they’re wise and intuitive.

ARIES

(Mar 21 – Apr 20):

You are impatient, reckless and often selfish. However, most people find you quite charming. No other candy matches you more than Warheads. They are unique, aggressive and direct — just like you.

TAURUS

(Apr 21 – May 20):

Like Pop Rocks, you’re short-tempered and prone to burnout. While exciting to be around, you tire quickly and often leave a bad impression.

GEMINI

(May 21 – June 21):

You’re two-faced and judgemental. However, deep inside, you crave love and acceptance, just like Candy Corn.

CANCER

(June 22 – July 22):

Your emotional and sentimental tendencies are charming to some and irritating to others. Rockets exemplify your loyalty and sensitivity. They’re consistent and reserved, just like you.

LEO

(July 23 – Aug 21):

Your lack of self-awareness is getting out of hand. You are a Tootsie Pop, relentless, tenacious and egoistic.

VIRGO

(Aug 22 – Sept 22):

Recently, you’ve been over-studying and ignoring your basic needs. Like a Coffee Crisp, you prioritize productivity, sensibility and practicality over pleasure and joy.

LIBRA

(Sept 23 – Oct 22):

There is no candy that matches your friendly and extroverted personality like Skittles. You feel deeply and often sacrifice your own happiness for the benefit of others.
