I fancy myself an armchair astrology expert. I can tell you Tauruses love to live lavishly, that the loudest person in the room is probably an Aries (love them), and that I have my Aquarius sun and Virgo moon to thank for my “go with the flow — but not too much” tendencies. Growing up in LA, astrology has been a part of my cultural DNA since the dawn of CoStar.
All of this is to say: I am very qualified to make astrology-inspired gift recommendations. The best gifts for design lovers are personal ones, and nothing says “I see you” like Zodiac-inspired homewares that capture personality quirks and celestial charm.
How do you impress an already magnetic Scorpio? Or choose homeware fit for a balanced Libra? Step away from the generic “Sagittarius” emblazoned pillowcases in your cart, and give an astrology gift that feels as selective as the stars intended.
Capricorn: December 22–January 19
Price: $76.28
Capricorns are timeless. When in doubt, they revert to the classics. I quite literally could have chosen a Grecian bust for their refined taste, but this lamp felt like the perfect fit for their “loafers and a trench coat” brand of prep. Plus, Capricorns are notorious workaholics, and this stylish table lamp will help them burn the midnight oil in true Capricorn fashion.
Aquarius: January 20–February 18
Price: $89
As an Aquarius, I have major qualms with most astrological gifts. The ideas for my sign are often so quirky it’s almost insulting. And the blue? How cliché! We like to stand out, and no two Aquarians are the same, so I’ll admit we’re tricky to shop for. But here’s my attempt: no one is doing mother of pearl quite like Gohar World. Their shell napkin rings live in my mind rent-free — one of a kind, just like us.
Pisces: February 19–March 20
Price: $78
Pisces are known for having their heads in the clouds, and this dreamy vase channels their elegantly ethereal energy. Its dynamic, tactile folds capture the natural fluidity of this creative water sign. It’s just as dramatic as they are (they’d admit it, too!) and comes in a smaller, ocean-inspired blue version as well.
Aries: March 21–April 19
Price: $149.95
Aries get straight to the point — fiery, passionate, and unapologetically bold. For a sign that doesn’t hold back, this red lacquered, retro-inspired electric kettle is a perfect match. Plus, who doesn’t love a Smeg?
Taurus: April 20–May 20
Price: $99.90
No one appreciates a splurge quite like a Taurus. With their sharp eye for quality and unrivaled love for comfort, this ultra-luxurious throw is a natural choice. Its lush, snuggly fabrication and elegant design cater perfectly to their preference for staying cozy at home in style.
Gemini: May 21–June 21
Price: $101, Was: $135
Some say two-faced, I call them versatile. This dual candleholder set from Soho Home — a dynamic pairing of apple green and French gold marble geometric shapes — perfectly captures Gemini's multifaceted personality.
Cancer: June 22–July 22
Price: $89.95
Lesser known fact about Cancerians: they adore cooking, especially for family. Help them embrace their domestic hosting dreams with this stunning serving dish by Veronica Balutto for CB2. With its polished brass accents and high-design appeal, it turns even the simplest weeknight dinners into an elegant event — perfect for a sign that cherishes home-cooked meals.
Leo: July 23–August 22
Price: $59.99
Leos love to party — point, blank, period. As the most social sign in the zodiac, they thrive on being the center of attention, so naturally, they’ll go the extra mile to stand out. Who better to rock a colorful cordial set? With plenty of friends and plenty of flair, this showstopping glassware will be the highlight of their next gathering — guaranteed to steal the spotlight, just like them.
Virgo: August 23–September 22
Price: $68, Was: $98
Having been around many Virgos, I can confirm their meticulous attention to detail extends to their sense of style. Yes, they value organization, but they also have a penchant for classic, polished pieces. This genuine leather basket, which could easily be mistaken for something from a certain French luxury fashion house, is right up their alley — practical, timeless, and unimpeachably chic.
Libra: September 23–October 23
Price: $39.95
Libras, represented by the scales, are all about balance but are famously indecisive. This salt cellar set is the perfect fit, offering dual functionality with elegant harmony. Plus, as lovers of luxury, they’ll adore the clean-lined marble design gracing their countertop — stylish and practical, just how they like it.
Scorpio: October 24–November 21
Price: $135
Scorpios are known for their deep, dark magnetism — a quality that shines through in their effortlessly sexy sense of style. This LOUISE ROE design feels particularly perfect for its sharp stainless steel construction, inspired by Bauhaus design. It's as edgy and captivating as they are.
Sagittarius: November 22–December 21
Price: $50
If anyone loves a pattern, it’s a Sagittarius. The fun-loving fire sign isn’t afraid to be bold in their decor. Truthfully, all of Jonathan Adler’s playful designs would appeal, but this trinket tray feels especially apt (and giftable) with its vibrant gold-bordered basket weave pattern and travel-friendly size.
