Horoscopes have been around forever, telling you what to wear, what to do, and who to date. Why shouldn’t they give some insight into what gifts to buy? Here are some non-astrology-related gifts for the signs.

Aries
This energetic and dynamic fire sign will appreciate something to light up their lives! As the first sign of the zodiac, they are the babies, and their fire tends to ignite and extinguish quickly, like a match! Grab them some vintage matchbooks and a candle to go with them. If you’re the creative type, you can also paint or design your own!
Taurus
Ruled by Venus, Taurus has an appreciation for the finer things in life. That’s why a bath product is the perfect gift for this stubborn bull. They will appreciate the dependability of Lush products. Bath bombs are my favorite, but if your Taurus doesn’t have a tub, grab them a body wash or a shower jelly!

Gemini
Known for being social and dual-natured, this air sign won’t shy away from Bean Boozled Jelly Beans. The pack contains two jellybeans identical in appearance, but vastly different in flavor. Tutti-frutti or stinky socks? Gemini is willing to find out.
Cancer
The brand Warmies has been blowing up lately for “bringing comfort to everyday life.” Warmies are stuffed animals with functionality. Microwave for 60 seconds, then they stay warm for 60 minutes! This is the perfect gift for your sensitive, nurturing, and compassionate Cancer friend.
Leo
At the end of a long day of socializing, Leo needs a place to rest their head. Silk pillowcases are great for keeping your hair and skin healthy. They are hypoallergenic and luxurious! Leos are known for having great hair, so help your Leo friend maintain their mane with this gift.
Virgo
Puzzles are the perfect gift for your Virgo, who are known for their analytic thinking and attention to detail. I like these puzzles from the Museum of Modern Art. The dedicated Virgo is sure to finish the puzzle and appreciate the beautiful art on the completed piece.
Libra
Charming and social, Libras love a conversation piece. They can be indecisive, but that’s why buying them a unique claw clip makes a great present. Colette Bernard makes a huge range of career claw clips. From anatomical hearts to painters’ palettes, there is something for any Libra. They will love the compliments from strangers, trust me.
Scorpio
Like a locked chest, Scorpios are intense and mysterious. They will appreciate an aesthetically pleasing version of their interests. Do they love spinning records? Grab a special edition pressing. Reader? Check out those special editions! Anything elusive that not everyone else has will make a great gift for your Scorpio.

Sagittarius
Mystery drink and snack crate. This one has Japanese items, this one is a potato chip variety box, and this is a “smorgasbord” of Scandinavian treats. Curious and playful, Sagittarius will be taken on a sensory adventure with a box of snacks to try. Who knows, you might even inspire their next travels!
Capricorn
Capricorns are disciplined, organized, and ambitious. They often have huge goals, and almost every Capricorn I know carries a planner. So, sticker sets are a great gift! Capricorns are frugal and tend to avoid unnecessary purchases, like stickers. But stickers make a planner so much more fun! These from Art by Elowyn are the absolute cutest. Add some color to their lives, and they will appreciate it.
Aquarius
Is your Aquarius friend a reader? They will appreciate these quirky socks that say “Book Daddy.” Check out the “Book Baddie” version, too. Aquarians think outside the box and value stimulating conversation, so feel free to get them a new book to go with this gift.
Pisces
Intuitive and artistic, this deeply reflective sign will appreciate something beautiful that they can stare at. A crystal suncatcher is the perfect choice. They can hang it in a window and watch as the colors change when the light catches it.
