It’s in the stars

Sagittarius

Nov 23-Dec 21 Sagittarius does not like predictable gifts — they are up for adventure, willing to try anything once. Skydiving or deep sea scuba diving, they love to explore new areas. Sagittarians also have a softer side too.

Capricorn

Dec 22-Jan 20 Think practicality: if it is not of any viable use then Capricorn will think of the gift as a waste of time. They appreciate thoughtful gifts such as electronic gadgets they can link up to their computers or iphones.

Aquarius

Jan 21-Feb 19 Aquarians love to laugh: they enjoy prank gifts or something that indulges their wicked sense of humour. Good card games or board games, as long as there is an element of fun, will go down a treat.

Pisces

Feb 20-Mar 20 Pisces are dreamers so any gift connected with their soul will be most welcome. They are often seen browsing the latest releases. They also have a fond love of gardening so buy them something they can nurture.

Aries

Mar 21-Apr 20 Aries people love to be surprised. Whether it is that all important proposal or for an exciting spending spree, there is no better way to win your way into their heart than with money or any way they can spoil themselves.

Taurus

Apr 21-May 21 Taurus is a sensual beast; they love to be pampered so gift giving is easy for Taurus. Their first great love is luxury, so spend a little extra on their gift and they will love you for it. Food hampers or a bottle of red will win their hearts.

Gemini

May 22-June 22 Gemini’s can be difficult to buy for unless you know them well. They love nothing more than to curl up with a spine tingling mystery or get swept up with the latest movies. A gift certificate for the movies will rate highly.

Cancer

June 23-July Cancerians love the presentation sometimes more than the gift itself. If you spend up big make sure the packaging is full of surprises. They are also family-loving so perhaps a nice photo of someone.

Leo

July 24-Aug 23 Leo the lion loves to play. They enjoy whimsical gifts for the garden, zany artwork or perhaps a book on photos so they can look through the lens. However, they do love to stockpile perfume, jewellery or books.

Virgo

Aug 24-Sept 24 Mother of the Earth, they love precious items that remind them of solid foundations, so think of precious gems, plants and interior gardens. They are also explorers so perhaps a special passport for that trip of a lifetime.

Libra

Sept 24-Oct 23 When buying for the Libran in your life think lots of little gifts as they love to open presents and show off to the world. Music plays a big part in their life so the latest releases or an old favourite will always be appreciated.

Scorpio

Oct 24-Nov 22 Scorpio loves to receive gifts with hidden meanings. They love solving puzzle gifts: sometimes a treasure hunt with little gifts with clues along the way will get their heart racing. You will win them if you give with love.
