It can always be stressful to figure out what to get someone for their birthday or a holiday, whether it’s your best friend or your significant other. This guide makes it simple: just look for their zodiac sign (I recommend using their Venus sign, although sun signs will work, too) and go from there! Everything on this list is relatively cheap and easy to find and purchase, and your significant other or your friends will love it!
- ARIES: Board Game
-
Aries natives are very playful. They love action and always need to be doing something during every moment of their day. They are also very childlike and fun-loving, which is why a board game is the perfect choice for them. Board games are fun and take a lot of energy, and it will be something an Aries would love to play with you whenever they can.
- TAURUS: Jewelry
-
Taurus loves fancy things. They like to surround themselves with possessions. It will mean the world to them if you get them something nice like jewelry as a gift. It doesn’t even have to be expensive, as long as you put a lot of thought into it. I recommend checking out Etsy for some cheap but nice pieces of jewelry created by independent artists.
- GEMINI: Book of the Month Subscription
-
Geminis are hard to shop for. They love to mix it up all the time, and their taste changes so often it can be hard to buy them one thing they’ll love forever. This is why something like a subscription to Book of the Month, where they can pick which book they want every month, is perfect for them. That way, you still get them a thoughtful gift, but they’ll be able to choose the specifics of the gift for themselves.
- CANCER: A Blanket
-
Cancers are incredibly caring and loving. They love physical affection, so getting them a nice, warm blanket is perfect. They can cuddle up with you underneath it, and if you’re in a long-distance friendship or relationship they can think of you every time they use it. Plus, since it’s the wintertime, who wouldn’t love something to keep them warm?
- LEO: Something Personalized
-
As a Leo Venus, I can verify that we are a little bit obsessed with ourselves. We love attention and knowing that the people in our lives care about us, and because of that, something custom and personalized would be the perfect gift. It could be something like personalized jewelry or even something homemade, as long as you let the Leo in your life know that you’re thinking specifically about them!
- VIRGO: Acts of Service
-
Virgos are very observant. They notice everything about you and have a habit of making you fall in love with them by doing little things for you. It’s also really important that you appreciate and thank them for everything they do, so doing an act of service for them is perfect. Making them breakfast, cleaning the house, or doing the dishes are really simple ways to make them feel loved.

LIBRA: Glossier Products
-
Libras love fairness and compassion in their relationships. They’re very charming, they love simple and minimalist aesthetics, and as a sign ruled by Venus, they care quite a lot about their appearance. This is why products from Glossier, one of my favorite makeup and skincare brands, would be perfect for them. The packaging is neat and simple, and you can easily find something perfect for the Libra in your life on their website.
- SCORPIO: Candles
-
Scorpios are very loyal and fall deeply in love very easily. They’re also the most passionate of the zodiac signs, and they love to spoil their partners, which is why a candle is the perfect gift for them. Nothing says passion like a candle. Any scent you get the Scorpio in your life is sure to be a hit.
- SAGITTARIUS: A Spontaneous Adventure
-
Sags are very adventurous and like to feel like they can grow and change within a relationship. They’re also restless and love to get out in the world and explore. While that can be hard to do in our current pandemic situation, planning something like a road trip or a camping trip can be a great, socially distanced way to have an adventure that any Sag in your life would love.
- CAPRICORN: A Planner
-
Capricorns are practical, even in love, and they like dependency and stability more than anything. They are big planners and often are not very idealistic, preferring to ground themselves in the present. That’s why getting them a planner is the perfect gift for them for any occasion. A nice, customized or personalized planner is a great way to show you care and they’ll appreciate it and you forever.
- AQUARIUS: A New Piercing
-
Aquas are the definition of living outside the box and they don’t like to be conventional in their relationships or in their life. That’s why an unconventional gift, like a new piercing, is perfect for them. It’s thinking outside the box and it lets them do their own thing. Any Aquarius in your life is certain to be a fan.
- PISCES: Movie Night
-
Pisces are some of the sweetest signs of the zodiac. In relationships, they love spending romantic time with their partner and will do anything to show you how much they care about you. Pisces also give a lot, so it’s important to give them something back once in a while. Spending time with them and giving them attention, like during a movie night, is a great way to show the Pisces in your life how much you love them.
