	CAPRICORN	The Goat is always shown as dying and changing into a fish. This demonstrates Jesus being a sacrifice (the goat) for our sins enabling the Church (the fish) to be born from Him “Not with the blood of goats and calves but with His own blood He ….obtained eternal redemption (for us)” Hebrews 9 v12
	AQUARIUS	The Water Bearer. Shows the Son of God pouring out the Holy Spirit, which He called a river of living water, upon, and into His people. “If anyone thirsts let him come to me and drink.  He who believes in Me… out of his heart will flow rivers of living water. But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive” John 7 v37-39
	PISCES	The Fishes. Believers are likened to fish in scripture and this sign shows the believers united by a cord tied to each of their tails, indicating the  binding together of His church by the Holy Spirit. ”every living thing ... wherever the rivers go will live (See Aquarius).  There will be a very great multitude of fish because these waters go there for they will be healed” Ezekiel 47v9
	ARIES	The Ram.  Jesus also called His followers sheep and in this sign He is shown as the leader of His flock and the Lamb of God. “Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” John 1v29.  “In the midst of the throne…stood a Lamb as though it had been slain…..worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and blessing”  Revelation 5 v6, 12.
