Picking a college can feel as frustrating \u00a0as searching for Teddy Lupin in \u00a0Cursed Child \u00a0<\/em>(too soon? Not soon enough?). \u00a0Lucky for you, I’ve put together a guide using none other than your zodiac sign to point you in the right direction. \u00a0Skeptics to the left\u2014I’m a total believer in the power of the zodiac. (Except when it comes to my Leo boyfriend, who’s not supposed to gel with a Cancer. Damn you, \u00a0gods of astrology!) So throw caution to the wind and let your zodiac sign lead you to your collegiate destiny!<\/p>\n Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.<\/strong> Fire signs tend to be passionate and energetic, but also temperamental.
