Whether you are treating yourself or showing appreciation for the people you love, there is definitely some shopping that needs to be done this holiday season. Being an avid astrology lover, coupled with my love of gift giving (thanks to my leo venus) led me to create a list of gift ideas that will hopefully leave you starry eyed.

Candle from Birthdate Co.

I’m sure you have seen most zodiac candles in stores such as Target and Urban Outfitters. However, Birthdate Co. takes their candles a step further by not just including your zodiac sign, but also including your birthday, personality description, ruling planet and even a tarot card on the label. With a burn time of 60-80 hours and scents varying depending on your birthday, a candle from Birthdate Co. is bound to be the perfect gift for someone who loves self-care.

Zodiac Sign Tea from Uncommon Goods

Let’s be honest, everyone loves a good cup of tea. These custom tea blends from Uncommon Goods have different flavors depending on your astrology sign. If you happen to not like the flavor listed based on your sun sign, you can always end up buying one based on your other planetary placements. The container that the loose tea leaves come in is also gorgeous and can be reused as a makeup brush holder or a candle jar.

The Astrology of You and Me by Gary Goldschneider

There are a lot of astrology books out there, but I personally feel like this is the perfect one if you are starting to get into astrology or just want to expand your astro knowledge. Goldschneider breaks down how to interact with friends, family, coworkers and even bosses based on their zodiac sign. With such detailed breakdowns of the signs in various settings, you’re bound to get along with almost everyone once you’re done reading.

Mercury Retrograde Eyeshadow Palette from Huda Beauty

Priced at $67, Mercury Retrograde is the priciest item on the list. However, one can justify the cost after looking at the 18 stunning shades this palette contains. The palette has both bold and neutral shades, which makes it the perfect palette to use when you are on the go. With shade names such as “cosmic” and “galaxy,” you are bound to create looks that are out of this world.

Zodiac Keychain from Etsy

If you are looking for a gift that would be a perfect stocking stuffer, look no further. These zodiac keychains on Etsy are vibrant and bound to put a smile on your face, or the person you are gifting it to. The store also offers these designs in a sticker form if you are looking for something cheaper!

I hope at least one of these gift ideas made their way into your shopping cart. During this time, don’t forget that it is important to show yourself the same love you show others. Happy holidays!
