For Astrology Lovers: The Best Gifts for Every Zodiac Sign

Nov 23

If you’re someone who struggles to find the perfect gift or needs a little support with your gift-giving ideas, choosing an item based on their Zodiac Sign might be just the little fresh perspective you need. Whether it’s for the holiday season, birthday, or special event, understanding the energy behind your recipient’s sign can help with picking a gift that feels right to you.

In time for this holiday season, I asked the very gifted and talented astrologer, Juanita Benedicto, to share not only a little more insight into each zodiac sign but to recommend the types of gifts that fit the energy of that sign. Juanita suggests even though a Sun sign gift works perfectly fine if you want to find a gift they'll truly value, you can even better customize it by buying for the sign their Venus occupies. (You will need to know the time, date, and location of their birth or ask them to tell you from their birth chart.) The gift suggestions are quite generous, so you can easily adjust by eliminating items to accommodate any budget.

The Best Gifts for Every Zodiac Sign

ARIES—March 21st to April 19th

Bold, direct, and trailblazing: that’s how pioneering Aries rolls. As the first sign in the Zodiac, Aries appreciates novelty and inventions hot off the press. This badass sign gravitates towards a challenge, proving to themself and others what they’re capable of. Aries packs an honest sweat while reveling in mapping out the unknown.

● Suggested gifts: Guest passes to a handful of gyms and studios around town. Mix it up: barre, OrangeTheory, boot camp, and pilates. Include appropriate gear: barre socks, a quick-dry towel, and a smart water bottle.

TAURUS—April 20th to May 21st

Ruled by sensual Venus, Taurus welcomes the opportunity to indulge the senses, preferably in a natural setting. Taurus shows the rest of us what it means to truly inhabit the body. This Earthy sign finds her inspiration in beauty and delights in corporeal luxury. The Bull opts for comfort and quality every time.

● Suggested gifts: Spa Day in a gorgeous setting. Since Venus, the ruler of Taurus likes company, make sure you’re coming too. Wrap the certificate with a high-quality candle that holds an exquisite, natural smell; specifically the Moss candle for its lovely earthy fragrance. Alternative: ultra-soft luxury pajamas—include the candle!

GEMINI—May 22nd to June 21st

Equipped with curiosity, keen wit, and impressive powers of observation, Gemini revels in mental fodder. This multi-tasking Air sign constantly soaks up information only to offer it later in scintillating conversation. Intellectual Gemini spends a lot of time at the cerebral gym, asking questions, and expanding their mind. They’re also early adopters and appreciates technology that simplifies their life.

● Suggested gifts: Bluetooth wireless earbuds and a subscription to Audible. Less pricey gifts include a museum pass paired with a gift that matches one of the exhibits. Finally, anyone of the 40 gadgets on Oprah’s 2020 tech gift list for women will do! Such as the Ban.do Universal Power Bank or the Instax Mini 9 Instant Camera.

CANCER—June 22nd to July 22nd

Deeply sentimental Cancer fills hearth and home with memories. This nurturing and nostalgic water sign often keeps all the family scrapbooks and photo albums going back generations deep. The rest of us count on Cancer to keep family traditions alive. Cancer is known for its emotional generosity. A good gift considers this.

● Suggested gifts: A smart frame that allows friends and family to email photos directly to the frame. Two more alternatives: 1) an Online cooking class that reflects Cancer’s heritage and 2) an intimate picnic that thoughtfully includes a piece of personal nostalgia in the basket.

LEO—July 23rd to August 22nd

Warm-hearted and playful Leo gravitates towards five-star experiences. As the royalty of the Zodiac, Leo is naturally drawn to luxury and glamour. Ruled by the Sun, Leo inclines toward creative choices with an iconic edge. As a fire sign, Leo emanates physical vigor, determination, and strength.

● Suggested gifts: Delight your favorite Leo with tickets to the opera and designer face masks to go with them. This gift gives them the chance to dress up while basking in auricular opulence. Alternatives: Keep it simple with a North Face beanie & gloves or give a memorable gift of a Sun Talisman. Leo is ruled by the Sun!

VIRGO—August 23rd to September 22nd

Detailed oriented Virgo is a natural optimizer and improves anything they get their hands on. Hand them a mess and they'll efficiently return it to you straightened up and shining like a new dime. This humble sign appreciates efficiency in all areas of their life including home, body, mind, and spirit.

● Suggested gifts: Gift your favorite Virgo a meditation retreat to purify their mind. Include a cushion. Even a comfortable Zafu Zabuton Set on its own makes a nice gift. Alternative: Acrylic organizers, an Organic Food Subscription box, or an electronic organizer smart bag.

SCORPIO—October 23rd to November 22nd

Alluring Scorpio is the truth seeker of the Zodiac. There's a penetrating depth and raw intensity to Scorpio. As a child, Scorpio loved haunted houses and ghost stories. Now grown, she or he is drawn to cemeteries, palm readers, oracles, and meditative labyrinths. Scorpio blows in like a wind where the rest of us fear to go. They live in the deep end, forever exploring life's great mysteries.

● Suggested gifts: A past life regression reading will thrill Scorpio, feeding the desire to explore their hidden past. Alternatives: Tickets to a haunted house tour or the Lie Detector game. Or to make Mars happy (ruler of Scorpio): A hand-carved, ceremonial dagger made from obsidian to be used for energetic cord-cutting and gathering of medicinal herbs and plants.

SAGITTARIUS—November 23rd to December 21st

The Sagittarius creed? Not All Who Wander Are Lost. With wanderlust in their bones, sunny Sag commits to living life as a quest. Ruled by expansive Jupiter, this fire sign is on a mission to explore the meaning of life, journeying to absorb different cultures and philosophies, thereby broadening their perspective.

● Suggested gift: A gift certificate to Patagonia where Sag can replenish their travel gear, whether it be a parka, duffel, or hip pack. Alternatives: Memory Foam Travel Pillow. If travel is out, find a gift that provides the touch of the exotic like an adventure book or textiles from Chiapas.

CAPRICORN—December 22nd to January 20th

Methodical Capricorn sets a high bar for themselves. They evolve through challenges, pushing themselves to earn not only high regard from others but their own self-respect. Cap energy is well ordered, systematic, and disciplined. Linked to the mythical Seagoat, they also esteem ancient systems like paganism.

● Suggested gifts: Capricorn is ruled by Saturn which rules old things.
