Based on your star sign alone, this is how you approach York Freshers’ Week

We all nervously anticipate Freshers’ Week and the chaos it brings… but how will your star sign influence your approach to the week? Even if you’re convinced star signs are the biggest red flag, I’m sure curiosity will get the better of you. So, here is your opportunity to discover what your Freshers’ Week entails, based entirely on your zodiac sign.

Capricorn

Capricorns have their eyes on the prize. This could range from successfully make it through first year or partying hard every night of Freshers’ Week. Capricorns are incredibly ambitious, so they will be looking forward to exceeding their expectations of uni life and fulfil Freshers’ Week in a practical and determined fashion. You may find yourself wanting to stay in some nights during Freshers’ Week if you’re a Capricorn; the hard working and realistic tendencies of your sign will undoubtedly loom in the background of your approach to Freshers’ Week.

Aquarius

Confusingly linked to their relation to the water element, Aquarius are not the emotional wreck they are mistaken for. Freshers’ Week will see those with this sign observing a lot. Quiet and friendly, Aquarius have a profound sense of fairness and look out for those they care for and those in need. Easy-going and carefree Aquarius signs are almost always down to participate in the fun of Freshers’ Week at York.

Pisces may face some tears during the first week of uni. Known for their emotional tendencies, the move from home and adjustment to uni life may be overwhelming. However, as the last of the signs, Pisces will handle such a challenge with optimism and strength. Those with this astrological sign will make great therapists for uni meltdowns as they are great empathisers and will find ways to relate to any crisis!

Aries

As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries are no strangers to competition. Being a fire sign, they are bold, ambitious, and embrace any challenge that life throws at them. Navigating Freshers’ Week will be effortless for those governed by this astrological sign. As one of the most active star signs, these freshers will be involved in all the activities and in loads of societies throughout the year.

Cancer

Known for their sensitive temperament, this star sign is connected strongly to their emotions. However, once they come out of their shell, you get to know their easy-going, carefree and kind nature. Their sensitivity encourages a great sense of empathy to those around them which will come in handy for the whirlwind of Freshers’ Week emotions. Whether it be the first flat disagreement or someone missing home, those governed by this sign will be a great friend in Freshers’ Week and beyond.

Leo

As most of us know, Leos do not shy away from the spotlight. If you’re a Leo, Freshers’ Week will be your time to shine and share your bold moves and personality. This fire sign will relish the opportunity to party all night and socialise with loads of different people. Represented by the figure of a lion, Leos are fiercely loyal and will be eager to make new friendships and relationships. Loud is often a word associated with this sign so be wary of the noise that comes with them (your upstairs neighbour that won’t shut up is most definitely a Leo).

Libra

Libras are represented by the scales. Balance and harmony are at the centre of their goals. This attribute may certainly come in handy during those first weeks at uni. Ruled by Venus, Libras enjoy the finer things in life and will certainly be in the right place to explore the art, culture and entertainment within York. Indecision is a key trait for this star sign so definitely avoid asking the Libra of the group where to eat or drink.

Scorpio

Often mistaken for a fire sign, Scorpios are actually part of the water element. Scorpios know what they want and are plotting far ahead to ensure that they get it. Represented by the scorpion, they are known for their sting which is interpreted in many different ways. In life, Scorpios are honestly not all that bad, but perhaps the chaos of Freshers’ Week will be their time to strike.

Virgo

Virgos are perfectionists. From ensuring their new uni room is effortlessly decorated to organising their timetable, Virgos pay attention to the details. This will come in handy during that first week at uni as you organise the endless activities and nights out. Navigating your way around campus may be tricky but with a Virgo by your side, you can be certain that their problem solving and logical thinking will get you to the right place.

Sagittarius

Passionate, entertaining and creative, Sagittarius signs can expect a fun-filled Freshers’ Week. Just like life, they won’t take their first week at uni too seriously. Their flexible and adaptable qualities will prove useful in settling into life at uni. But with such optimism and calmness also comes a signature bluntness. Do not be surprised when a Sagittarius gives their honest (sometimes brutal) opinion – it’s their zodiac trademark.

Gemini

Social butterflies within the zodiac sphere, Geminis will be the first to make conversation within the first week of uni. They will be joining all the societies to ensure a wide variety of sociable environments. If you’re a Gemini and can’t wait to join loads of societies, just do it! There’s truly nothing stopping you. Those under this sign will be excited to try new things during Freshers’ Week, even if their attention span only lasts five minutes.

Taurus

Rooted in the earth element, Taurus is a star sign symbolically presented through its rural and serene landscapes. These students will not be disappointed. Both York’s uni campus and city scene is filled with beautiful landscapes. Campus itself is grounded in nature, with students actually having to dodge the wildlife on their way home from lectures. From walking the city’s walls to watching the sunsets, York will ensure comfort and luxury to Taurus signs. They are resilient and hard workers, something which will put them 0n a good path for the academic influx of work after Freshers’ Week.
