Capricorn: Maui, Hawaii
December 22–January 19
Known for their driven and hardworking approach to life, Capricorns deserve a true vacation to recharge and unwind from the grind. The island of Maui, with its stretches of golden sand and breathtaking sunsets, is the perfect fit. Kick back on a gorgeous beach, embark on a whale-watching tour, or book a luxurious spa treatment. If you find yourself yearning for a challenge amid all the relaxation, you can take a surfing lesson or an epic sunrise hike to feel that sense of accomplishment that Capricorns love.
Aquarius: Palm Springs, California
January 20–February 18
Innovative and unique Aquarians will fit right in among the space-age architecture and otherworldly desert landscapes of Palm Springs. This resort town is a stylish time capsule with a funky spirit: Try a rejuvenating sound bath, tour midcentury houses, or sip cocktails poolside. Be sure to check out the chic Uptown Design District for vintage finds so you can bring a piece of Palm Springs home with you. When you need alone time to recharge, a camping adventure in nearby Joshua Tree National Park awaits.
Pisces: Coastal Maine
February 19–March 20
Maine has been an artistic haven for centuries, from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Winslow Holmer to Stephen King and Patti Smith. Imaginative Pisces will feel right at home among the tree-lined hiking trails and hidden rocky coves that have featured in countless poems, books, paintings, and songs throughout the years. Let your inner water sign frolic among Maine’s 3,500 miles of coastline—take a lighthouse cruise down the Kennebec River, unwind on a sandy pocket beach sandwiched between two peninsulas, or immerse yourself in the secluded wilderness of Acadia National Park.
Aries: Utah
March 21–April 19
High-energy Aries like to get up and go—so a trip to an adventure-filled state like Utah is written in the stars. Few places on earth combine such spectacular and diverse terrain: in the north, the Wasatch Range dominates the landscape, while down south the Colorado Plateau’s colorful canyons inspire awe and invite exploration. Hit the slopes in Park City, raft the Colorado River, or take a hike through red rock landscapes in one (or all!) of southern Utah’s stunning national parks. After it all, kick back and celebrate your wins at a local brewery.
Taurus: Washington State
April 20–May 20
This practical and grounded earth sign will find lots to love in the diverse ecosystems of the Evergreen State: snowy mountaintops, lush rainforests with hidden waterfalls, and the rugged Pacific coastline. Indulge in a little luxury when you venture into the heart of the state’s wine country, where sprawling vineyards and boutique wineries offer a taste of Washington’s finest vintages. Whether you’re trekking through alpine meadows bursting with wildflowers or ascending the Space Needle for panoramic views of the Puget Sound, each corner of this state offers a unique slice of natural beauty for a Taurus to appreciate.
Gemini: New York City
May 21–June 20
Ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication, Geminis are social butterflies seeking someplace that will match their intellect and quick wit. So a trip to New York City is a natural fit! The city inspires big dreams and endless wonder, filled to the brim with art deco skyscrapers and an endless and ever-changing array of restaurants, shops, and bars and clubs that stay open until the early hours. Whether you explore thought-provoking exhibits at museums like the Met or catch a new play that’s the talk of the town, there’s no place quite as stimulating as the city that never sleeps.
Cancer: Monterey Bay, California
June 21–July 22
Cozy, dreamy vibes await this homebody water sign on the California coast, where you can experience the best the Golden State has to offer—without the big-city crowds and complications. Stroll along soft sand beaches, pop into boutiques, and relax with a good book with breathtaking ocean views as your backdrop. The town of Monterey is a great home base for getting out on a kayak or paddleboard, while the idyllic village of Carmel possesses seaside charm. Big Sur is the region’s most dramatic stretch of coastline, and the perfect spot for an unforgettable scenic drive.

Leo: Nashville, Tennessee
July 23–August 22
Every Leo will fall in love with Nashville as they explore a city just as charismatic and rowdy as themselves. The nightlife in Music City is unparalleled, so put on your dancing boots and bask in the spotlight at a karaoke bar, honky-tonk, or line-dancing lesson! During the day, harness that confidence and charming nature of yours to make new friends over a cup of fiery moonshine at a food truck feast. Or steep yourself in the history of the greats at the Country Music Hall of Fame, where you’ll learn about the trailblazers and natural leaders that came before you.
Virgo: Boston and Cape Cod, Massachusetts
August 23–September 22
Historic charm, intellectual vibes, and a (scheduled) chance to unwind? A trip to Boston with a Cape Cod getaway will check all the boxes for analytical Virgos. Dive into American history along the Freedom Trail, scope out the student scene in Cambridge, and tour world-class museums. Once you’ve thoroughly explored Boston, escape to the Cape for centuries-old lighthouses, serene bike paths, and coastal hikes. Virgos, be sure to make room in your itinerary for Nantucket: with its rose-draped cottages hugging narrow lanes and wide sandy beaches, arriving ferry passengers feel like they’ve opened a doorway to the 19th century.
Libra: Chicago, Illinois
September 23–October 22
Sociable Libras will find endless fun in every direction in Chicago. Hop on the L to pop in to diverse neighborhoods: check out street art in Pilsen, catch a lively festival in action, mingle with fans in Wrigleyville, dig in to dumplings in Chinatown, or strike up a conversation with locals at a beloved bar. And as the sign ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty and harmony, it’s worth spending an afternoon at the Art Institute getting inspired by centuries of masterpieces. Libras shouldn’t miss the city’s top-notch architecture tours, either, whether you hop on a river cruise to see skyscrapers or wander Oak Park on foot to admire Frank Lloyd Wright homes.
Scorpio: Charleston, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia
October 23–November 21
Intense, passionate, and intrigued by the unknown, water sign Scorpio will want to dive right in to these southern cities known for their rich history and occasionally eerie atmosphere. Wander down iconic cobblestone streets or through striking parks adorned with Spanish moss. Tour historic homes, learn about Gullah Geechee culture, and take part in Savannah’s to-go cup tradition. In the evening, indulge in delicious southern food and then join a ghost tour to uncover more hidden lore. These cities offer plenty of picturesque cemeteries worth a visit, too.
Sagittarius: Alaska
November 22–December 21
Only a wild and rugged state like Alaska can match the Sagittarian quest for adventure. Nurture your hunger for new experiences as you embark on a glacier hike, take a flightseeing tour in Denali National Park, or escape to Arctic Alaska—where people are outnumbered by caribou(!). Experience the thrill of spotting animals like bears and wolves in the wild, learn about Alaska Native cultures, and get a glimpse of the enchanting northern lights. Who knew a fire sign could feel so at home among ice and snow?
