When you’re sitting down, ready to check all those names off your gifting to-do list, finding the perfect gift for every person in your life can feel overwhelming.

Whether you are the one asking for everyone’s time of birth, or you know someone who is, we created a detailed gift guide for every sign in your life! If your dad is a difficult-to-buy-for Virgo, or your cousin is a very particular Aquarius, do not fret. We have an idea for them all (with a sustainable spin too)! Check out our go-to gifts for each zodiac sign, featuring tons of our fav small businesses, sustainable brands, low-waste products, and DIY ideas.
Aries:
Cotopaxi Surprise Hip Pack - When buying a gift for an Aries, make sure you have their lifestyle at the top of your mind. Aries are one of the most adventurous, ambitious, and driven members of the zodiac, so keeping their personal and professional goals in mind will certainly help you pick the perfect gift. A Cotopaxi Kapai Hip Pack is a great option for a useful bag that can follow Aries along on any adventure they have planned. Purchasing the “Surprise” option means you will get a one-of-a-kind find too!
Taurus:
Vintage Dining Ware - One of the hardest signs in the zodiac to find gifts for is Taurus. The bearers of this sign pride themselves on their materialistic enjoyment, making them exceptional gift-givers themselves, but also particularly picky. You are going to want to gift a Taurus something especially unique. Because Taureans are notorious foodies with an aptitude for hosting, sourcing some fun vintage dining ware is a great susty gift idea for this fixed earth sign.
Gemini:
The Intersectional Environmentalist - If you have a Gemini in your life, you know that this sign is always the first to know about what's happening in the world. Geminis are often seeking opportunities to learn new things and tell the world about everything they have discovered. Finding something a Gemini hasn’t already become an expert on is no easy task, but it’s the thought that counts! Get them something that will keep them thinking, and give them something to teach everyone else around them. We love The Intersectional Environmentalist for introducing us to uncommon ideas that a Gemini will certainly latch onto!
Cancer:
Vitruvi diffuser - Cancers are gifted nurturers and tend to be a sign that puts their own needs second to the needs of those around them. If you have one of these mom-friend Cancers in your life, gift them some self-care this year, and remind them that it's okay to take some time off and put themselves first. A Vitruvi diffuser is an excellent gift for creating a calming ambiance and setting the vibe for an evening of self-care. You can use our code, SUSTAINABLEBADDIE, for a special deal too!
Leo:
Memor Custom Phone Case - Ruled by the sun, the Leo in your life is going to need a gift that is just as vibrant as they are. This sign is always looking for things to set them apart, so consider going a little bit wild or searching for something especially one-of-a-kind. We love these phone cases because they are customizable to fit each Leo in your life. They are perfect for sparking conversation, and ideal for the Leo in your life (who just so happens to be the coolest in every room).
Virgo:
Le Puzz Puzzle - Virgo is a mutable earth sign and is probably behind a lot of the Friendsgiving planning, secret Santa organizing, and solstice celebrations. This driven sign sometimes needs a little reminder to slow down and have a little fun. Gift them a super funky puzzle! It will give them the perfect reason to take a break and spend some quality time with friends and family – and what Virgo doesn’t love a puzzle?
Libra:
Keane Hand Blown Glass Earrings - This fashion-forward sign has likely been way ahead of the Black Friday sales, and might have already gifted themselves everything on their own list. However, there are certainly a few accessories that even a Libra doesn’t already have. Giving a Libra wearable art like these handmade, glass-blown earrings from Keane is certain to be the perfect addition to their latest outfit check.
Scorpio
Parade’s Sexy Silky Lace Bra or Free Comfort Trunks - Scorpio, a sign often associated with the 8th house of taboos, is known for its mystery and allure. This sign is especially passionate, making a set of susty intimates from Parade an ideal gift for any Scorpio in your life. A fun bra or a colorful pair of boyshorts gives a Scorpio something secret to add to their long list of difficult-to-reveal info.
Sagittarius
Vintage Graphic Tee - A Sagittarius is arguably one of the funniest signs in the zodiac. These signs are quick to crack jokes and love to make the whole room uproar in laughter. Gifting the Sag in your life a quirky graphic tee with a funny phrase is sure to compliment their vibe and gives them something one-of-a-kind to brag about too.
Capricorn
Papier Planner - This ambitious sign is often described as a visionary within the Zodiac. They often have their goals top-of-mind, so gifting them something that will help keep their eyes on the prize is essential. These planners are stylistic and made with paper from Forest Steward Council-certified trees. So not only will these planners keep a Capricorn on the fast track to success, but they will be susty while doing it.
Aquarius
Vintage Record - If you have an Aquarius in your life, then you probably have already thought of buying them their favorite record this year for the holidays. Aquarians are known for being a bit alternative, and a bit against the grain. Unwrapping a vintage record from a band only they have heard of is a sure way to say, “I care about you, and I have been listening to your rants.” Discogs has an insane library of vintage, new, and used records perfect for any Aquarius’ taste.
Pisces
We’ve Been Having Feelings For Years Sticker - Pisces is the dreamer of the zodiac, and a sign that is especially attuned to the emotional and sensitive side of everything around them. Buying gifts for a Pisces might be simpler than other signs because they are genuinely just happy to be thought of. However, gifting them something special that shows you understand their old soul nature will make their big heart flutter. A unique piece of art, like this sticker from Lord Cowboy, is sentimental at its core and says, “I see your sensitivity and I love you even more for it.”
