The Zodiac signs in French (les signes du Zodiaque en français).
The table below shows the names of the Zodiac signs in French, with their equivalent translation in English and related dates. For instance, a Gemini is called in French "gémeaux" which means twins. Les gémeaux are born between the months of May and June.
Some of the signs are animal names: for instance, le taureau (bull), le bélier (ram), les Poissons (fish), while others are a sickness name (le Cancer) or represent a scale (la Balance).
🛑Just be careful while using the phrase "I am virgo". Make sure you use it in the context of zodiac signs. Otherwise, it can be translated in French as "I am virgin".
