Where to Travel Based on Your Zodiac Sign
We all know that planning a vacation can be immensely stressful, so why not let someone (or something) else do it for you?
Rather than going with the classic (yet random) approach of closing your eyes, spinning a globe, and seeing where your finger stops it, why not see if there’s a more, hm, heavenly approach to your next vacation?

Best Places to Travel for Your Zodiac Sign
1. Aries
Who You Are
Bold and ambitious, Aries dives headfirst into even the most challenging situations.
Where You Should Go
What about an Antarctic Cruise?
One of the most rewarding yet physically challenging vacations on Earth, an Antarctic Cruise allows passengers to experience some of our planet’s most untouched reaches, incredible wildlife, and – yes – challenging weather conditions.
True explorers will likely embark & disembark in Argentina, giving you the perfect chance to recharge in beautiful Buenos Aires on your way home!

2. Taurus
Who You Are
Taureans enjoy relaxing in serene, bucolic environments surrounded by soft sounds, soothing aromas, and succulent flavors.
Where You Should Go
Is there anywhere more bucolic or serene than Dublin, Ireland?
While there is plenty to do in the vibrant Irish capital, it’s hard to deny that the soothing aromas of Irish coffee or the succulent flavors of Guinness wouldn’t do plenty to ease the world-weary Taurus!

3. Gemini
Who You Are
Have you ever been so busy that you wished you could clone yourself just to get everything done? That’s the Gemini experience in a nutshell.
Where You Should Go
While this description is a little vague, I think it’s fair to say that Geminis find themselves, in a word, stressed.
So what, better place to unwind than beautiful Bali, an Indonesian island paradise that provides all the isolation and relaxation even the world’s top busy-body would enjoy!

4. Cancer
Who You Are
Cancer is a cardinal water sign. Represented by the crab, this crustacean seamlessly weaves between the sea and the shore, representing Cancer’s ability to exist in both emotional and material realms.
Where You Should Go
Few destinations weave between the sea and shore as seamlessly as Koh Samui, an island on Thailand’s Gulf of Siam coast.
Littered with scuba diving, snorkeling and boating opportunities – along with plenty of quality time in your hotel’s infinity pool – little merges the sea, the sand, and the stars quite like Koh Samui!

5. Leo
Who You Are
Leos are delighted to embrace their royal status: vivacious, theatrical, and passionate. Leos love to bask in the spotlight and celebrate themselves.
Where You Should Go
Was there any doubt that the bold, brash, Leos deserve a vacation anywhere else than Rome, home to one of history’s most dominant empire?
The Italian capital’s rich history, delicious food, and gladiator-laden legacy all combine to provide a vacation fit for a lion!

6. Virgo
Who You Are
Virgo is an earth sign historically represented by the goddess of wheat and agriculture, an association that speaks to Virgo’s deep-rooted presence in the material world.
Where You Should Go
If Virgos have a deep-rooted presence in the material world, then there’s no better vacation destination than Tokyo, Japan.
Whether it’s the Japanese capital’s long standing as a technology pioneer, burgeoning high fashion presence, or the enormous displays of wealth in neighborhoods like Ginza, Tokyo has all the materialism to satisfy even Madonna herself!

7. Libra
Who You Are
Libra is an air sign represented by the scales, an association that reflects Libra’s fixation on balance and harmony. Libra is obsessed with symmetry and strives to create equilibrium in all areas of life.
Where You Should Go
No major vacation destination epitomizes balance better than London.
Refined, Victorian royal museums are balanced by insane, electric nightclubs, Buckingham Palace is balanced by the gritty pub scene, and 3-Michelin star restaurants are balanced by fish ‘n’ chips.
For a trip bringing balance in every direction, look no further than a trip across the pond, mate!

8. Scorpio
Who You Are
Because of its incredible passion and power, Scorpio is often mistaken for a fire sign. In fact, Scorpio is a water sign that derives its strength from the psychic, emotional realm.
Where You Should Go
Latin America is well-known for its incredible passion, and what better place to explore than recently-opened Havana, Cuba?
The Cuban capital’s penchant for old & colorful American cars, street food, rum, and impromptu nighttime dancing (whether in a dance hall or randomly on the streets – I’ve seen both!) provides an amount of passion Scorpios are sure to love!

9. Sagittarius
Who You Are
The last fire sign of the Zodiac, Sagittarius launches its many pursuits like blazing arrows, chasing after geographical, intellectual, and spiritual adventures.
Where You Should Go
Lying deep in southern Spain, Granada is a city so close to Africa its sometimes difficult to tell which continent exerts more influence over this gorgeous, mysterious town.
Exploring our past through architecture is the Granadian name of the game, as the Cathedral of Granada, Generalife Fountains, and the Alhambra – a stunning mid-13th century fortress – are all elements catering to both the geographical and intellectual desires of the Sagittarius!

10. Capricorn
Who You Are
The last earth sign of the Zodiac, Capricorn is represented by the sea goat, a mythological creature with the body of a goat and tail of a fish. Accordingly, Capricorns are skilled at navigating both the material and emotional realms.
Where You Should Go
Fronting the Adriatic Sea, Dubrovnik is a perfect candidate for Capricorns, whose celestial representation, the sea goat, clearly carries elements of both land and sea.
And, as far as navigating both the material and emotional realms, no city is better than Dubrovnik, which hosts the mega-party Yacht Week and also served as a major film location for HBO’s Game of Thrones!

11. Aquarius
Who You Are
Aquarius is represented by the water bearer, the mystical healer who bestows water, or life, upon the land. Accordingly, Aquarius is the most humanitarian astrological sign.
Where You Should Go
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico is a surfer’s paradise located on the Mexico’s Pacific coast that can heal even the most dire need for a relaxing vacation!
My favorite spot in Puerto Vallarta is the Islas Marietas National Park, an island enclave west of Puerto Vallarta that features gorgeous rock formations, rare birds (blue-footed boobies, anyone?), and plenty of opportunities to scuba dive, snorkel, paddle-board, and more!

12. Pisces
Who You Are
Pisces is symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions, representing the constant division of Pisces’s attention between fantasy and reality.
Where You Should Go
Where else are the lines between fantasy and reality more blurred than in Paris, France?
From the fantastic churches and monuments including Sacré-Cœur, the Eiffel Tower, and the Arc de Triomphe to the world-famous art and artifacts in museums including the Louvre and d’Orsay, Paris is (I promise!) an actual city that feels like a complete fairy tale.
