Star Wars: Which Jedi Would Be Your Master, Based On Your Zodiac Sign?

Summary

  • Anakin Skywalker is a great fit for Aries.
  • Mace Windu would help a Taurus manage their stubbornness and find balance.
  • Master Yoda’s wisdom would guide impulsive Geminis to be more mindful and calm.

Jedi Masters in Star Wars are meant to be the right fit for their Padawan learners based on both of their strengths and weaknesses, and these 12 Jedi would therefore be perfect for each of the Zodiac signs. Masters and apprentices have proven quite complicated throughout Star Wars movies and TV shows. Even some of Star Wars’ most powerful Jedi have proven not to be the best masters; after all, Master Yoda’s own apprentice, Count Dooku, became a Sith (although that wasn’t quite Yoda’s fault).

However, the nature of Jedi masters and apprentices is that each is supposed to learn from the other. Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano are perhaps the best example of this; Ahsoka was meant to challenge Anakin as much as Anakin was meant to teach Ahsoka. In light of that intention for Jedi Masters and their Padawans, these 12 Jedi would be ideal masters for each Zodiac sign.

Which Jedi Are You, Based On Your Zodiac Sign?

Of all the Jedi in Star Wars’ movies and TV shows, these 12 perfectly represent each of the Zodiac signs—what does your sign reveal about you?

Confident But Prone To Anger, Anakin Skywalker Is A Great Fit For An Aries

Aries is known for being confident, assertive, and passionate, but they are also known for having a short fuse. All of these attributes would be an ideal fit for Anakin Skywalker. In fact, much like Ahsoka being the perfect Padawan for Anakin because she challenged him, an Aries Padawan would reflect many of Anakin’s own flaws, which would presumably help them both grow. Anakin would also understand such outbursts of anger more than most.

An Aries Padawan would reflect many of Anakin’s own flaws, which would presumably help them both grow.

In fact, arguably, one of the reasons Anakin struggled as Obi-Wan’s Padawan was because Obi-Wan didn’t understand his emotional reactions. Obi-Wan, in contrast, was always level-headed and thoughtful. If Anakin had a Padawan who did struggle to contain their anger, he would have the wisdom to help them overcome this flaw and embrace the peace and calm the Jedi were meant to maintain, perhaps helping himself improve in that area at the same time.

Mace Windu Would Help A Taurus Learn To Manage Their Stubbornness

Mace Windu

Mace Windu was certainly a tough character, but that would make him the perfect master for a Taurus. Taurus is a sign known most for being stubborn, which is clearly communicated via the symbol for the sign, a bull. To a certain degree, being stubborn can be a good thing, as it can mean one is dedicated to their beliefs and has a strong sense of self.

However, stubbornness can also be a problem for a Jedi, who should be focused on creating unity. In that sense, Mace Windu would be the ideal Jedi Master; although he was also fairly stubborn, he could help a Taurus Padawan see the benefits of compromising and working with the other Jedi to find the best path forward. Of course, Taurus is also a sign known for being steadfast and patient, which would make any Taurus a great Jedi.

Master Yoda Would Be The Perfect Guide For The Intelligent Yet Impulsive Gemini

Geminis are often thought of as being incredibly fun, as the sign is associated with playfulness, creativity, and charm. However, Geminis are also known for being very intelligent. These character traits would mesh well with Master Yoda’s wisdom and calm. In fact, as impulsivity can also be a Gemini trait, Yoda would do well to manage a Padawan’s more reckless or rash decisions and teach them how to be more mindful, as a Jedi should be.

Moreover, although Yoda was also a very powerful Jedi and led the Order, he had a surprising sense of humor when he wanted to. After all, he not only poked fun at Obi-Wan Kenobi throughout the prequel trilogy but also teased Luke Skywalker both in the original and sequel trilogies. Yoda would therefore be an ideal fit for a Gemini, both in terms of their strengths and their weaknesses.

Ahsoka Tano Would Have Compassion For A Cancer’s Emotions

Ahsoka Tano

Cancers are known for being emotional, in both positive and negative ways. While Cancers’ emotions can mean they are empathetic, intuitive, and caring, they can also manifest as insecurity and sensitivity. Ahsoka would be an ideal Jedi Master to a Cancer for that reason. Ahsoka has dealt with significant trauma in her life, from being kicked out of the Jedi Order to realizing that almost everyone she knows and loves is dead.

Her past experiences would therefore mean that she would have a compassionate approach with a Cancer Padawan. In fact, as she had her own difficulties with her master and apprentice dynamic with Anakin (to say the least), she would also understand how important that relationship is. In all likelihood, such a dynamic would heal Ahsoka too, meaning that each would be benefiting from the way a Jedi Master and their apprentice are meant to be.

A Leo Would Need Obi-Wan Kenobi’s Training In Humility

Leos are known for plenty of positive traits, including intense loyalty, creativity, and passion (as any fire sign is). However, Leos are also strongly associated with having an ego. Obi-Wan Kenobi would be the perfect Jedi Master to manage a Leo Padawan because he’s already proven he can train someone with an ego. In truth, very few characters can compete with Anakin Skywalker when it comes to pride.

Obi-Wan Kenobi would be the perfect Jedi Master to manage a Leo Padawan.

Particularly in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones, Anakin proved how conceited he could really be, yet Obi-Wan remained even-tempered and patient. Of course, Anakin ended up becoming one of Star Wars’ most powerful Sith. However, there were many external factors that impacted Anakin’s fall, such as the death of his mother and his relationship with Padmé, so Obi-Wan’s ability to train such a Padawan shouldn’t be discounted.

Anakin Skywalker’s fall to the dark side of the Force is a pivotal event in Star Wars, and 15 key moments defined how that turn happened over time.

Qui-Gon Jinn Bending The Rules Would Be A Perfect Lesson For A Virgo

First Appeared In: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace

Qui-Gon Jinn

Created By George Lucas Cast Liam Neeson First Appearance Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace Alliance Jedi

Virgos are known for being organized, practical, and reliable, which are all excellent traits. However, being a perfectionist, as Virgos can at times be, can create other problems, such as becoming too rigid in their way of thinking or being overly critical of others. Qui-Gon Jinn would therefore be an ideal fit as a Jedi Master for a Virgo.

Being a perfectionist, as Virgos can at times be, can create other problems.

Qui-Gon was never one to shy away from breaking the mold, and he frequently opposed the Jedi Council, which he made clear when he insisted on the Jedi accepting Anakin Skywalker. In fact, in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, Qui-Gon’s actual Padawan, Obi-Wan, essentially pleaded with him to not continue to defy the Council (Qui-Gon refused). Qui-Gon’s willingness to break the rules would be difficult for a Virgo to swallow, meaning they would be perfectly challenged as his Padawan.

Libra’s Obsession With Balance Is An Obvious Fit For Luke Skywalker

First Appeared In: A New Hope

Close

Luke Skywalker

Created By George Lucas Cast Mark Hamill , Grant Feely First Appearance Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope Alliance Jedi

Libras are all about diplomacy and balance, which means Luke Skywalker would be a brilliant Jedi Master for them. Interestingly, Star Wars has yet to show Luke as a true Jedi Master, and the franchise may very well never bring that to the small or big screen. Star Wars movies and TV shows have shown glimpses of Luke as a Jedi Master, including in brief scenes from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker when he trained Leia and in The Book of Boba Fett when he trained Grogu.

However, even without seeing a detailed representation of Luke’s time as a Jedi Master, it’s easy to imagine what he would have been like, especially before his Jedi Temple fell to Ben Solo. Luke would absolutely agree with the idea of balance, most notably because he was able to bring his father back to the light side of the Force after he had been a Sith Lord for so long. Together, Luke and a Libra Padawan could rework the prequel trilogy Jedi Order’s focus on stomping out the dark entirely.

Plo Koon Would Handle A Scorpio’s Loyal But Slightly Controlling Nature Perfectly

First Appeared In: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace

Scorpios, easily recognizable by the Zodiac sign’s symbol of a scorpion, are known for being incredibly loyal and brave, but they are also known for being secretive and a bit manipulative. This would prove concerning for a Padawan, as neither secrecy nor manipulation would be appropriate traits for a Jedi. However, Plo Koon’s calming presence and wisdom would be a perfect fit for such a Padawan.

In fact, Barriss Offee matches the description of a Scorpio Padawan, and her fate may have been much different if she’d had Plo Koon as a Jedi Master. While it wasn’t Luminara Unduli’s fault that her Padawan fell to the dark side for a time, Plo Koon’s compassion and warmth would likely have been helpful to Barriss. Indeed, Plo Koon’s disposition, from his calm nature to his compassionate interactions with others, would make him an ideal fit for a Scorpio Padawan.

Kanan Jarrus Would Be An Excellent Fit For The Sagittarius Humor And Optimism

First Appeared In: Star Wars Rebels

Kanan Jarrus

Created By Dave Filoni Cast Freddie Prinze Jr. First Appearance Star Wars Rebels Alliance Jedi, Rebel Alliance

Kanan Jarrus was an incredible Jedi Master to Ezra Bridger, and his demise in Star Wars Rebels was truly tragic. However, his guidance of Ezra throughout Rebels proves that he would be excellent for a Sagittarius Padawan. The Sagittarius sign is known for being optimistic, funny, and curious; the Sagittarius traits therefore already align with Kanan’s actual Padawan.

Throughout Rebels, Ezra was charming, adventurous, and idealistic, which made him a wonderful character but at times a somewhat difficult Padawan. However, Kanan did an excellent job embracing Ezra’s fun-loving personality while also helping him become more serious and disciplined. In the end, he succeeded, as Ezra not only became a powerful Jedi but also a selfless person, willing to risk his life to save others. Were Kanan to have a Sagittarius Padawan, he could implement the same approach and no doubt be just as successful.

Rey Would Be Understanding About A Capricorn’s Pessimism

Capricorns are known for being extremely hard-working and resilient, but their dedication to being realistic can at times become pessimism. However, Rey would identify with all of these traits as a Jedi Master. Rey managed to keep herself alive for years, scavenging for minimal amounts of food. Because she had suffered such terrible trauma, though, she had a deep suspicion of others that certainly could be considered pessimistic.

Capricorns are known for being extremely hard-working and resilient.

If Rey were to have a Capricorn Padawan with similar traits, she could use her experiences to guide them in an empathetic way. Moreover, Rey would serve as an excellent example that, even if one has had a difficult past, it doesn’t mean that things can’t change in the future, especially when one takes a risk and relies upon others. Rey’s story is truly one of hope, which would be an important lesson for Capricorns to learn.

Ezra Bridger Would Love The Creative And Intelligent Aquarius

First Appeared In: Star Wars Rebels

Ezra Bridger

Created By Dave Filoni Cast Taylor Gray , Eman Esfandi First Appearance Star Wars Rebels Alliance Rebel Alliance, Jedi

Aquarius is a sign associated with intelligence and creativity, making an Aquarius Padawan a perfect fit for Ezra Bridger. Although Ezra left the main Star Wars galaxy at the end of Rebels when he was still quite young, Ahsoka season 1 saw him as a full-fledged Jedi. However, it’s clear that in all that time he maintained the lighthearted personality and charm he was known for.

Ezra would therefore be an excellent fit for an Aquarius Padawan, as he would appreciate their intellect and unique approaches to problems. In fact, as a non-traditional Jedi himself, having been trained rather late in life compared to the average Jedi Initiates, Ezra would likely be more receptive than most to an Aquarius Padawan. This would also mean finally getting to see Ezra take on the Jedi Master role, which would be thrilling.

Empathetic And Intuitive, Pisces Is Perfect For Leia

First Appeared In: A New Hope

Leia Organa

Created By George Lucas Cast Carrie Fisher , Ingvild Deila , Vivien Lyra Blair First Appearance Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope Alliance Rebel Alliance, New Republic, Resistance

Pisces is associated with empathy, intuition, and generosity, all traits that perfectly suit Leia Organa. Although Leia did become a Jedi Master to Rey, Carrie Fisher’s tragic passing before The Rise of Skywalker meant that very little of her approach to training a Padawan was ever shown on screen. However, everything that has been shown about Leia as a person makes it clear that a Pisces Padawan would thrive under her guidance.

Although Leia was undoubtedly fierce, brilliant, and brave, she was also an incredibly compassionate person (even if she tried to hide it under a rough, sarcastic exterior). Leia would undoubtedly be very supportive of a Padawan who shared similar traits, but she would also foster her own strengths of leadership and courage in her Padawan learner. The Zodiac signs may not be Star Wars canon, but Leia, and the other Jedi Masters, make it clear that several Jedi are perfectly suited to particular signs.
