Does holiday shopping stress you out? Do you struggle to find the perfect gift for your loved ones? Are you sick of getting them the same gift card year after year? Last year we talked about what clothes, books, practical, and gag gifts the signs would like. This year, I’m putting together zodiac gift guides that will help you find the ideal accessories, candles, vinyl records, and experiences for your friends and family.
Everyone needs a good accessory to tie an outfit together. Vinyl records have made a big comeback over the past few years. Some people would rather have a great experience than another item cluttering up their house. And let’s be honest, sometimes we buy a candle as a present because we don’t know what else to buy!
Each gift guide will be dedicated to a specific element of the zodiac. Check your loved ones’ sun sign (and moon sign and rising sign just to be sure) and consult these guides to find their perfect gift!
Today we are focusing on the Santa-is-coming-down-the-chimney-so-put-out-the-Fire signs, Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
Aries
Accessories:
Aries are the warriors of the zodiac, and all warriors need their armor. But since it is not socially acceptable to walk around wearing a suit of armor, layered and chunky jewelry is the next best thing. Fun, chunky bracelets will have the cardinal fire sign feeling like Wonder Woman. And they can wear a layered necklace set and feel like they are protecting the source of their fire, their heart.
Vinyl records:
If you don’t know the musical tastes of your Aries loved one, they may enjoy an album from any of the artists on this playlist. I personally recommend Lady Gaga’s Born This Way album. “Marry The Night,” is the perfect song for the cardinal sign. Plus, the iconic songstress is an Aries, so you know the entire album exudes her fiery energy.
Experiences:
Aries like to stay active. And I have mentioned before that they love hiking and being out in nature. So a hiking trip coupled with a stay at a mountain lodge would be a great gift for Aries. After a long day on the trail, they can curl up by a fire and roast marshmallows.
Scented Candles:
Honestly, you could really get an Aries any sort of candle. They will just be happy to burn something. But if you do want to get them something a little bit more personal, I recommend something with a woodsy and sweet scent like tobacco or whiskey. They may also enjoy citrus scents. If you are unsure about the color, try to find a red, orange, or white candle.
Leo
Accessories:
One of Leo’s signature colors is gold, so it is safe to say that they will rock any gold accessory. However, you may want to steer clear of the gold lamé. I don’t care if the ’80s are making a comeback. But I digress. When in doubt, go for gold. If you want to try something different than regular jewelry, get those temporary metallic gold tattoos.
Vinyl records:
If you don’t know the musical tastes of your Leo loved one, they may enjoy an album from any of the artists on this playlist. Leo’s are ruled by the sun, so they need an album that will make them feel like they’re walking on sunshine. Which is exactly why they need this album from Katrina And The Waves!
Experiences:
Leo is known to be the most theatrical sign in the zodiac. So you know they will love tickets to any sort of theatrical production. It doesn’t matter if it’s a play, musical, ballet, or concert. They will be incredibly grateful for any excuse to dress up and be entertained.
Scented Candles:
Like their cardinal counterpart, Leos also enjoy citrus scents. But they also love the smell of herbs and spices like ginger and rosemary. If you are unsure about the color, try to find a gold, orange, or yellow candle.
Sagittarius
Accessories:
Fanny packs are making a comeback. But people are calling them belt bags now. Sagittarians are driven by their insatiable wanderlust, and an easy-to-carry bag is a great accessory for any traveler. You can find pretty and practical belt bags at many department stores or websites like this one. If the mutable fire sign in your life prefers jewelry over bags, try looking for arrow pendants. Sagittarians are represented by The Archer after all.
Vinyl records:
If you don’t know the musical tastes of your Sagittarius loved one, they may enjoy an album from any of the artists on this playlist. Now obviously, the mutable sign can’t listen to a vinyl record on a road trip. But they can listen to an album that will inspire their need for travel and introspection. I recommend Tracy Chapman’s Fast Car for the broody and philosophical mutable sign.
Experiences:
It’s probably pretty obvious what kind of experience a Sagittarius wants, isn’t it? Sagittarians would be thankful for a vacation to any place they have never been to. You can get them an Airbnb gift card or contribute to their travel fund.
Scented Candles:
Just like Aries and Leo, Sagittarians love a good citrus scent. They may enjoy a lovely bergamot or lemon scent. You can even find travel-sized candles for the nomadic sign. If you are unsure about the color, try to find a deep purple, green, or blue candle.
I hope this guide was helpful. And remember, your loved ones will appreciate any gift that you get them because it came from the heart. Happy Holidays!
