The "Minnesota Zodiac" is a regional pop-culture take on the 12 astrological signs. Instead of the traditional Greek mythological figures, the Minnesota spin replaces them with localized cultural icons—from The Loon and The Cabin to Tater-Tot Hotdish.
These state-specific "signs" and their dates offer a uniquely Midwestern spin on your traditional horoscope:
- Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 18): The Lake – Quiet and reflective, yet energetic and eccentric.
- Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20): The Tater-Tot Hotdish – Friendly, comforting, and brings people of all backgrounds together.
- Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19): The Viking – Bold, courageous, and ready to conquer the elements.
