Short Head Seahorse
Jan.21 - Feb.19

If you're a short head seahorse, there's nothing shortsighted about you. With your roving eyes, you're a visionary -- always looking for ways to make the kingdom of the seahorses a better place. And speaking of kingdoms, the short head "look" is nothing short of regal.

The other seahorses bow when you enter the reef resplendent in your purplish-brown bony-plated armor speckled with white adornments and a crown-like appendage atop your head.

You like for the rest of the seahorse world to agree with you; you need personal seahorse space; dining on teeny, tiny shrimp; and clean water to swim in.


You dislike boring details; going with the flow; or when another seahorse mistakes your tail for a blade of seagrass and drags you along. At times, you are impatient, temperamental and can be a show-off.

You are sympathetic, compassionate and giving; quirky, peace-loving, a visionary and near-genius; and you're the smartest of all the seahorses.
