We’ve turned to the stars to provide you with insight, guiding you to the perfect present for your beloved. Find your loved one's sign below to discover what it is they truly desire. While you’re at it, take a peek at your own sign, and treat yourself too.

Self-Watering Planter

Aries are adored for their charisma, charm, and bravery and are always on the go while searching for new adventures. However, it’s important to note that this fire sign usually finds a way to stay grounded—or they could end up burning out. While plants offer an obvious solution to bringing more nature into one’s life, an on-the-go sign like the ram may have a hard time keeping track of their watering schedule. Save your sweetie the heartache of killing yet another green-leafed friend by indulging them with this self-watering and aesthetically pleasing solution.

Amber Fragrance Oil

With heightened senses and a natural talent for finding quality, Taurus signs are notorious for having some of the most refined tastes in the zodiac. Though these traits make them particularly good shopping companions, figuring out what to get them could trigger some serious stress. Luckily, Nemat Perfumes has concocted an amber oil that’s as timeless and classy as your favorite bull. This unisex scent is balanced, warm, and sensual on its own, but it can also be used as a base scent to prolong the wear time of fragrances layered on top of it.

Online Class

No one loves collecting information, hobbies, and new skills quite like a Gemini. With a fierce desire to constantly evolve their minds, members of this Mercury-ruled sign are a quick study. Present your favorite brainiac with the gift that keeps on giving, allowing them to explore a multitude of topics through the broad range of online classes offered by MasterClass. With a wide spectrum of workshops—ranging from playing music to baking French pastries—there’s no limit to what your sweetheart can learn.

Flower Pressed Shortbread Cookies

Crabs are some of the sweetest, most compassionate, and nurturing members of the zodiac. Giving advice, feeding family, and offering comfort act as major sources of joy for this loving water sign, though they’re not always great at performing these duties for themselves. Repay your favorite Cancer for all the yummy meals they’ve cooked for you with a box of colorful shortbread cookies from Eat Your Flowers. They’re beautifully adorned with edible blossoms and will stay fresh for weeks.

Soy Wax Candle

Fiercely loyal, unique, and creative, Leos find confidence in the personality traits and interests they’ve cultivated on their journey. Though they certainly approach life with an exuberant disposition, this fire sign also understands the value of relaxation and downtime. Help them create an ambience that’s as warm as they are with a Leo-inspired candle from Zodiaque Moon. They’re hand-poured in Sydney, Australia, and feature a sleek design that’ll mirror your sweetie’s pride for being born under the sign of the lion.

Magazine Subscription

As a Mercury-ruled Earth sign, a Virgo loves nothing more than a good book or magazine to unwind with. Present your sweetie with a gift that’ll keep giving year-round, and enroll them in a print subscription to National Geographic. This classic publication will take your favorite Earth sign on a new journey each month exploring every crevice of the universe, from outer space to the depths of the ocean.

Skincare

Libras tend to take their beauty routines seriously, ritualistically slathering their faces with serums and creams every day and night. Turn your sweetie on to their latest self-care obsession by presenting them with this Brightening Amethyst trio by Pink Moon. Each item is crafted with air energy in mind, elevating your beloved while helping them find a healthy balance between spirituality and vanity. Plus, the ingredients are sourced with environmental ethics in mind, bringing joy to the altruistic softy hiding under that glowing surface of theirs.

Serpentine Wine Bottle Holder

Scorpio is known as the sign of death and rebirth, and Scorpios are constantly looking for ways to transform as they make their way through life. Snakes are often thought of as powerful symbols for this water sign, shedding their skin much like the sign of the scorpion does, figuratively speaking. Remind your partner of this empowering trait whenever they unwind with a glass of wine, cradling the bottle in this sleek design from Anthropologie.

Cheetah Candle Set

No sign is drawn to adventure quite like Sagittarius. This Jupiter-ruled sign is known for its free spiritedness and limitless optimism, which can sometimes cause Sagittarians to get a bit restless in their daily life. Pander to the adventurer who lives within your favorite archer by presenting them with this candle set by Emma J. Shipley. The warming glow and calming scents will allow your beloved to feel grounded in the moment, while the artistic display on each piece will bring joy to their whimsical heart.

Champagne Coupe Stemware

While Capricorns sometimes get a bad rap for approaching life with a stoic and highly composed demeanor, what’s often left out of the conversation is their sleek, hot, and sophisticated taste. Capricorns are the hidden baddies of the zodiac, using boundaries, good manners, and tidiness to distract you from what’s really happening underneath. Gift your mysterious sweetheart with a present that’s as striking as they are with these immaculate champagne flutes by Estelle Colored Glass. With any luck, they’ll begin to spill their secrets after one or two pours.

Smart Fragrance Diffuser

Aquarius is often referred to as the sign of the future, and Aquarians are never afraid to embrace new technologies and spiritual trends. They move through life with an eclectic collection of beliefs and experiences molding the free-spirited weirdos we all know and love. Present your favorite water bearer something that combines their adoration for gadgetry and mysticism, such as this smart fragrance diffuser by Pura. The device allows users to customize the scent of their space with an app, multiple aromas, and scheduling options.

Coil Candle

As a Neptune-ruled sign, a Pisces loves nothing more than drifting off into a world of their own creation, playing melodic music and lighting a few candles in the process. This sensitive member of the zodiac often uses flame and wax as a way to ground and comfort themselves. These actions can be a little risky because of their forgetful nature. Save your favorite fishy from the stress that invades their psyche whenever they’ve left the house, unsure if they blew out their flame, by presenting them with a timed candle. The coil design of the wax allows its user to adjust how long the flame will flicker, extinguishing itself once time is up.
