Liz Forbes: zodiac sign and birth chart

Liz Forbes has no canon birthday. The Vampire Diaries never gives one, so her chart is read from her personality. She's a Taurus: the sheriff who keeps doing the job, keeps showing up for Caroline, and takes a long time to change her mind. A Virgo Moon is why she shows love through checking on you and fixing the problem.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. Her personality says Taurus.

We ran Liz through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets her most often. It reads her as earth all the way down: steady, practical and very hard to shove once she has decided.

NEBO's take

Taurus SunRead from her personality

Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus plants its feet. Liz objects to John Gilbert's plan because there will be kids in the crowd, and it takes knocking her out to get past her.
Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeVirgo
A Virgo Moon checks the evidence before it trusts a feeling. She doesn't take Mason's word about the Salvatores, so she watches Damon drink a vervain lemonade first.
Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeTaurus
No birth time in canon. First impression: badge, tired eyes and a seat on the Founders' Council, at a party at the Mayor's house.
Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus Mercury says it plain and sticks to the file. Even in the worst week of her life she's still working her cases with Damon, because that's how she knows to talk about the things that matter.
Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick
Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeTaurus
Taurus Mars is slow and then final. Once she believes the Salvatores are vampires, she and her deputies shoot both brothers and carry them off.

What the show does give: a small-town sheriff with a Founders' Council seat and a daughter she can't quite reach. Taurus answers that by staying at her post and trying again tomorrow.

How she shows up

Why she's like this

Taurus is the sign of staying put, doing the work and being slow to change. Liz has a seat on the Founders' Council and a vampire for a daughter, and she holds on through all of it.

First impressionTaurus rising

Trusts the wrong guy
Damon saves her from the vampire Lexi, and that seals their friendship. She has no idea the man who saved her is a vampire himself, and he becomes the friend she counts on for years.
Season 1, "162 Candles"
CoreTaurus Sun

Won't sign off on it
John wants to use the town as bait on Founder's Day. Liz says no because there are kids in that crowd. He knocks her out and handcuffs her to the ventilation pipes, which is what it takes.

FeelingsVirgo Moon

Silent when it counts
Caroline bites both deputies right in front of her, and that's how Liz learns what her daughter is. Told to stay quiet or Damon will kill her, she asks to be killed instead. Damon spares her because she's his friend.

MindMercury in Taurus

Closes her cases
Dying of cancer, she spends her last stretch closing her open cases, with Damon as her partner. Half of them turn out to be him. Caroline gets her goodbye inside Liz's memory of teaching her to ride a bike.
