PHP - MYSQL Query multiple values from an array

I want to run an insert query in a loop until all the elements from an array pass.

Ex:

$signs = array("aries", "taurus", "gemini", "cancer", "leo", "virgo", "libra", "scorpio", "sagittarius", "capricorn", "aquarius", "pisces");


$config = array('sign' => 'aries',
                'type' => 'daily',
                'date' => date('Y-m-d'),);


$content = $horoscope->get_daily_horoscope($config);
$update = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO `horoscope` (`zodiacal_sign`, `last_updated`, `content`) values (%s,%s,%s)", $config['sign'], $config['date'], $content);
$db->query($update);

I don't know how to run this query until all of $signs replaces $config['sign'] and the query runs all the 12 times in a loop.

Can somebody help me?

You can do it like this.. 

$signs = array("aries", "taurus", "gemini", "cancer", "leo", "virgo", "libra", "scorpio",     "sagittarius", "capricorn", "aquarius", "pisces");

foreach($signs as $s){


    $config = array('sign' => $s,
            'type' => 'daily',
            'date' => date('Y-m-d'),);


    $content = $horoscope->get_daily_horoscope($config);
    $update = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO `horoscope` (`zodiacal_sign`, `last_updated`, `content`) values (%s,%s,%s)", $config['sign'], $config['date'], $content);
    $db->query($update);
}
