She actually said it!

JKR has updated her site to wish Draco a happy birthday on June 5!

1. This is the first time a "negative" character has been wished a "Happy Birthday"

2. This means he's a gemini, which I have read sometimes as two souls in one body, which is *so* spot on for my perpetual WIP, Surfeit of Curses - I gave him a January birthday because of the whole looking back & forward at the same time thing, but gemini makes as much sense as anything. Anyone going to run a horoscope for him? Please?

3. It's also the first anniversary of PoAIMAXNYC; I doubt it means anything, but it's a sparkly coincidence!

Woe! There goes my Draco-is-a-Scorpio! Woe! *wails and thrashes*

But he does share a birthday with a friend of mine, who is a Gemini through and through. (He's also gayer than a three dollar bill, as they say here, but that's a different story altogether.) Be interesting to go through the books again with this new info. I still think that Draco has Scorpio very prominent on his chart somewhere. Either his rising sign or a major clustering of planets or something that makes him sneaksneaksneak.

Very, very interesting birthday-share, then! Did you read slytherincess's astrological exploration, with commentary?

I did! I found that quite funny. :D Of course, I'd love to pick JKR's brain and get birth time/location from her so I could pull up a natal chart for Draco. (Speaking as someone that's dipped her toes into the waters of astrology, the sun sign isn't the only thing that reflects a person's personality, hence my reason for wanting time/location.) The only reason why my coworker is such a Gemini is because his rising sign is also Gemini. *laughs*

But I still maintain that Draco's got Scorpio very prominent on his chart somewhere. ;) Which lets me get away with his birthday being November 7th in my WIP. *laughs*
