If you don’t already know your recipient’s birth date, now would be a good time to find out. What better way to ensure that you never miss their birthday?
Of course, one easy way to give a luxury gift that acknowledges your recipient’s astrological sign is a piece of jewelry with the symbol of their sign. Fine jewelers and luxury brands almost always have something brilliant in each sign of the Zodiac.

For the special Ram in your life, consider Valentino’s V Ring Shoulder Bag ($2,875) which is practical for everyday as she tackles her to-do list and commands authority the minute she walks into the room. Or maybe a trendy backpack ($635) by “It” label Off-White is the way to go for the Aries that’s running from a meeting to the sports field, doing what they do best. Working hard and playing hard.

Gemini is governed by Mercury, the planet of communication. These expressive twins are charmers and they love to chat and write. It’s not easy to keep up with their quick and analytic minds. Which, at times, can make them restless and indecisive. Their curiosity is insatiable and their youthful energy makes them inspired travelers and movers and shakers.

6. VIRGO (AUGUST 23- SEPTEMBER 22)
Exacting and analytical, Virgos have it all under control. They are perfectionists and being ruled by Mercury with the Earth element make them great communicators with the reliability and practicality to back up what they say they’re going to do. Virgos love making lists and will appreciate anything that keeps them organized.
The classic Cross Townsend pen ($156) combines precious metals with rich lacquer finishes to create a timeless and elegant design that will be appreciated by sophisticated Virgo.

Libras shine in partnerships and romantic relationships and will strive for justice and fairness. Indulge them with beauty and you can’t go wrong.
Tip the scales in their favor with this generous Space NK beauty advent calendar ($265) filled with goodies from Eve Lom, Tata Harper, Sunday Riley and more. The art loving Libra will embrace this hardcover, MoMA Now ($95), released to accompany the 90th anniversary of The Museum of Modern Art.

8. SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 22)
Scorpios have a reputation for being intense. After all, they are ruled by Pluto, the planet that governs both destruction and transformation. Their mysterious and power-hungry natures might give them a bit of a bad rep. But if you’re shopping for a beloved Scorpio, you know that they are also fiercely loyal and empathetic.
No sign appreciates fine lingerie more than sexy Scorpio. This black silk satin kimono from Agent Provocateur ($1,015) is edged with tulle in a beautiful floral design with witchy, flowing sleeves. Scorpios love a good game, since that’s when their competitiveness is viewed as most socially acceptable. Asprey’s fine leather backgammon set ($4,750) will get many hours of play.

Ruled by Jupiter, the planet of abundance, spirituality, and growth, people born under this sign can often be the life of the party. But what they really crave are intellectual and spiritual experiences. They love their freedom and are ready to travel far and wide to find the answers they seek. Sagittarius are not afraid of change and love a good debate.

Capricorns and stubborn are often found in the same sentence. These goats are governed by Saturn, the stoic planet that is associated with structure, responsibility and discipline. Their unwavering focus helps them to achieve anything they set their mind to. Though this earth sign may seem a bit conservative at first, Capricorn’s closest friends and lovers know that they also love to party.
The grounded Capricorn will appreciate any practical luxury apparel that they are too frugal to purchase on their own. This relaxed Zimmerman ivory sweater ($595) will go with any jeans or patterned skirt in their closet. Capricorns love to use their minds.

11. AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21- FEBRUARY 20)
Aquarians are under the influence of the planet Uranus, the eccentric planet of innovation, transformation and rebellion. Quirky and free-spirited, they are one of the most friendly signs of the zodiac and always the first to join in on a new adventure. They are also humanitarians and care for the welfare of others and society as a whole.
Aquarians are not afraid to make bold statements in their appearance.

Pisces is the last sign of the Zodiac, and is said to have absorbed all the lessons learned by the preceding signs.
