What Is Your Recovery Star Sign? - Both Sobriety & Clean Time Versions
Greetings, my fellow travelers on the road of recovery! Today, we're diving into a fun and whimsical exploration of "Recovery Astrology." Forget your birth date for a moment—what really matters here is your recovery date. That's right; your recovery date has its own sun sign, and each sign has unique qualities that can guide you on your journey. So, let's discover what the stars (and your sobriety date) have in store for you!
Aries
March 21 - April 19
The Sponsor Slayer
Sobriety: You’re a natural leader and fearless warrior in the recovery world. You tackle your steps with the same intensity you used to hit happy hour. Just remember, even warriors need rest, so take a moment to breathe between amends and inventories.
Clean Time: You're the Rocky Balboa of recovery, punching your way through steps like a champ. But hey, even Rocky needed a break—take five and sip that decaf.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
The Serenity Seeker
Sobriety: Stubborn as a bull but grounded and practical, you thrive on the stability recovery offers. You have a knack for finding the most comfortable chair at meetings. Your challenge? Being open to change and trying new things—like a different coffee brand at the meeting.
Clean Time: Stubborn but lovable, you treat meetings like your comfy couch. Try switching it up once in a while—maybe a new brand of donuts?
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
The Recovery Social Butterfly
Sobriety: Duality is your game. One minute you’re sharing your deepest feelings in a meeting, the next you’re cracking jokes. You’re excellent at connecting with newcomers, but don’t forget to connect with yourself. Meditation might be your best friend.
Clean Time: One minute, you're deep and introspective; the next, you're the meeting's stand-up comedian. Just remember, you can’t meditate your way out of everything—sometimes, you gotta laugh, too!
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
The Emotional Alchemist
Sobriety: You feel all the feels, often more than you'd like. Your intuition is a superpower in recovery, allowing you to sense when others are struggling. Use your nurturing nature to support your fellows, but don’t forget to protect your own energy.
Clean Time: You’re the group’s emotional sponge, soaking up everyone’s feelings. Just don't forget to wring yourself out—boundaries, my friend!
Leo
July 23 - August 22
Sobriety: The Big Book Hero
You love the spotlight and inspire others with your recovery story. You’re confident, charismatic, and people flock to your energy. Just remember, humility is also a key principle. Let others share the stage now and then.
Clean Time: The Basic Text Hero
Your recovery story is the main act, and everyone loves it. But hey, give someone else the mic now and then—sharing is caring.
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
The Stepwork Superstar
Sobriety: Detail-oriented and perfectionistic, you approach step work like a science project. Your journals are meticulous, and your fourth step inventory is a masterpiece. Balance your quest for perfection with acceptance of imperfection—especially in yourself.
Clean Time: Your stepwork is cleaner than your sock drawer. Just remember, perfection is overrated—embrace a little messiness!
Libra
September 23 - October 22
The Balance Bringer
Sobriety: You strive for harmony in all things, including your recovery. Your diplomacy skills are unparalleled—you can mediate any meeting squabble. Just don’t let people-pleasing take over your own needs. Balance is key.

Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
The Deep Diver
Sobriety: Intense and passionate, you dig deep into your recovery journey. Secrets and shadow work are your specialties. Your transformation inspires others, but remember, vulnerability is also a strength. Share your journey—it’s part of the healing process.

Aquarius
January 20 - February 18

Clean Time: You’re the mad scientist, always cooking up new ideas for meetings. Just make sure your inventions don’t scare away the normies!
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
The Spiritual Sage

Clean Time: You’re the group’s spiritual guru, floating on a cloud of good vibes. But stay grounded—your feet should touch the earth occasionally.
