Gifts To Get Your Friends This Holiday Season Based On Their Zodiac Sign

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UCLA chapter.

It is gift giving season, and we all know how hard it can be wasting away at the mall searching for the perfect gift for your loved ones. For some, browsing among the copious varieties of possibilities in departments stores may be part of the holiday excitement! However, it can often lead to severe indecisiveness, and I have always believed in leaving my troubles in the hands of the universe. So this year, why not leave it up to the stars?

Here are 12 gift ideas based on your friend or family member’s zodiac signs: 

Aries (3/21-4/19)

Aries babies are known as the go-getters: impatient, implusive and here to get the party started! Why not feed into the stereotype by getting your Aries friend their own coffee press to fuel their child-like efforts!

Taurus (4/20-5/20)

Taurus babies are known to be very practical yet stuborn. Get your Taurus a warm and cozy bath robe this holiday season where they can stay snug and sassy!

Gemini (5/21-6/20)

You know what? Geminis get a bad rep, and that’s coming from a fellow Gemini herself! Due to their dual nature, get your social butterfly of a friend some funky boots! These two-tone boots from Nasty Gal are the perfect inspo!

Cancer (6/22-7/22)

Let’s give our Cancer besties a warm little hug. For when they are “in their feelings,” this scented candle is something that our Cancer friends can cozy up with.

Leo (7/23 – 8/22)

We have our attention-loving Leos! This holiday season, get your Leo lovers some hot red lipstick to command the center of the room!

Virgo (8/23 – 9/22)

Virgos are known for their organizing, “by the book” personas. Get your Virgo friend a productivity planner to get all of their activities and priorities in order!

Libra (9/23- 10/22)

Libras are all about their spirituality and their calming effect. Get your Libra besties some crystals to help maintain their harmony!

Scorpio (10/23 – 11/21)

Scorpios are known for how intense and passionate they can be. They are all about love and enthusiasm, so get your Scorpio sexies some spicy perfume!

Sagittarius (11/22 – 12/21)

Because our beloved Sagittarious friends are known for their spontaneity and sense of adventure, get your Sagg a world map that they can use to pin or scratch off each destination that their wanderlust heart takes them!

Capricorn (12/22 – 1/19)

Capricorns are known to be very ambitious in social and professional circles. A buisness card holder would be a perfect gift to give your Capricorns this holiday season!

Aquarius (1/20 – 2/18)

When I think of Aquarius I think of cool, calm and collected personalities. This holiday, get your Aquarius a hydroflask to help keep their water as cool as they are!

Pisces (2/19 – 3/20)

Pises are known to be dreamers, so a watercolor set will be able to allow your friend to take their imaginations to a next level!

I hope this gift guide was helpful in a time of stress during the holidays. Always remember it is okay to leave it up to the stars!
