According to astrologers, each astrological sign has certain characteristics that make them more suited to different activities. For example, people born under the Aries sign are more likely to be assertive and outgoing, while those born under the sign of Taurus might be more prone to enjoying the creature comforts of home.

Hearing about this really got us thinking, so we decided to talk to an astrologer ourselves and see if there are any holidays that are more suited to some astrological signs over other ones. What we discovered was a real eye-opener for us. We found out that there are holidays that people born under certain astrological signs might like more than others.

After taking some notes from our astrologer friend, we then put together a list of the holidays that we feel are more suited to each of the 12 zodiac signs. Sure, not everyone is going to agree about the specifics, we think that most people who believe in astrology will agree with our holiday choices. With that said, let’s get started, shall we?

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

Aries is not only the first sign of the zodiac, but it’s also a fire sign. That means that people born under this sign are energetic and adventurous. They like to engage in physical activities and be the center of the party. Holidays recommended for this sign include Independence Day and Easter. Sport-related and adventure holidays are also recommended for this sign.

Taurus (April 20th to May 20th)

People born under the sign of Taurus appreciate comfort, indulgence, and beauty. They’re also big fans of any holiday that includes good food, relaxation, and serene surroundings. As a result, Thanksgiving and Harvest Festival are two holidays that those born under this sign can usually enjoy. Other Taurus holidays include food and wine holidays.

Gemini (May 21st to June 20th)

Geminis tend to be social people and are always on the lookout to satisfy their intellectual curiosity. That means that they enjoy holidays that allow them to learn new things, socialize, and provide them with a bit of mental stimulation. Holidays we recommend include St. Patrick’s Day and National Book Lovers Day. We also recommend holidays that focus on trivia nights, or cultural events.

Cancer (June 21st to July 22nd)

People born under the sign of Cancer are sentimental, nurturing, and really family-oriented. They enjoy holidays that allow them to spend time with their loved ones. This is why we recommend holidays such as International Day of Families and National Visit Your Relatives Day.

Leo (July 23rd to August 22nd)

Leos are characterized by a lion, and we can’t think of a more apt symbol for this sign. People born under Leo are confident, charismatic, and love to be the center of attention. They also enjoy holidays during which they can really shine. That’s why we recommend holidays such as New Year’s Eve and Universal Music Day for them. We also recommend any holiday during which they can perform in some creative way — holidays dedicated to singing and acting.

Virgo (August 23rd to September 22nd)

Anyone who knows a Virgo knows that they are practical and detail-oriented — sometimes to a fault. There’s nothing that a Virgo likes more than pulling out their notebook and planning the next event. And there are two holidays that allow them to really shine in this department. These holidays are Christmas and New Year’s Day. Christmas because it combines planning and preparation with gift-giving, and New Year’s Day because it involves New Year’s resolutions that focus on self-improvement and personal development.

Libra (September 23rd to October 22nd)

Libras are known for enjoying beauty, sensuality, and romance. That’s why holidays such as Valentine’s Day and National Cuddle Up Day should be right up their alley. Other holidays that might suit Libras include holidays that deal with art, or holidays that feature cultural festivals.

Scorpio (October 23rd to November 21st)

Scorpios are not only intense and passionate, but they also have a deeper aspect to their personality that allows them to celebrate their inner selves or the act of personal transformation. Holidays that we recommend for those born under this sign include Halloween and International Day for Monuments and Sites These holidays allow Scorpios to not only investigate their inner spiritual selves but also to explore possible external spiritual forces.

Sagittarius (November 22nd to December 21st)

People born under the Sagittarius sign tend to be free-spirited and explore new horizons. These adventurous people enjoy any holiday that allows them to travel — regardless of whether it’s on the back of a motorcycle or hiking up Mount Everest. Some of the holidays we recommend for the adventurous Sagittarius include National Trails Day and Plan For Vacation Day. Also, any holiday that celebrates summer, international festivals, or backpacking also works quite well.

Capricorn (December 22nd to January 19th)

Capricorns are another Zodiac sign that is known for planning. They are also known to be practical people and to value hard work. That’s why we recommend National Picnic Day and Labor Day for those born under this sign. We also recommend they take advantage of any business conferences or Team-Building retreats — these are usually perfect for them.

Aquarius (January 20th to February 18th)

Anyone who knows an Aquarius knows that they can be kind and innovative and unconventional. They also tend to have somewhat of a humanitarian side. This means that they usually enjoy holidays where they can advocate for a cause or network with other like-minded individuals. That’s why we think that Earth Day or International Human Rights Day is perfect for them. Other holidays that work quite well for them include social justice events and technology holidays.

Pisces (February 19th to March 20th)

The last Zodiac sign on our list is Pisces. It’s a sign that’s usually imaginative, compassionate, and well-connected to their emotions. That’s why we recommend holidays such as International Mind-Body Wellness Day and International Artist Day for them to celebrate. Easter is also a good holiday for them, as are other holidays that focus on the mind-body relationship.
