Answer
The Zodiacal signs evolved from the ancient Babylonia and moved into China,
India, the West, etc. They in turn added their traditions and practices to
it. Being conceptualised by man and based on traditions and myths that are
man made, it cannot be used to make a judgement that people born under the
same sign share the same or similar characteristics.
Zodiacal signs being the tools of fortune-tellers and soothsayers rules out
the use of these signs as stated in a Hadith "Whoever goes to a
fortuneteller or soothsayer and believes in what he says then he has
disbelived in what has been revealed to Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi
Wasallam). (Mishkaat pg.393; Qadeemi)
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
