Aries (March 21–April 19) -

A fast-moving and ambitious sign, Aries tend to get a little ahead of themselves when it comes to holiday decorations. Take a step back, Aries, and choose one thing.

Aries (March 21–April 19) -

Colorful candles are a great addition to anyone's home, but in particular an Aries'. They will add a pop of excitement while allowing Aries to lean into their fiery nature.

Leo (July 23–August 22) -

The best mantra to describe Leo's attitude to holiday decoration would be "go big and go home." This is the sign that does the full-blown light display and three inflatable snowmen.

Leo (July 23–August 22) -

Leos should harness their competitive side during the holidays and make their house the best on the block. A gaudy Christmas sweater won't hurt either!

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21) -

Sags' favorite thing about the holidays is normally the festive atmosphere, the food, drink, and laughter. Lots of their celebrations center around the kitchen.

Sagittarius (November 22–December 21) -

For that reason, a tabletop display is a great option for the Sagittarius home. Couple this with some upbeat holiday tunes, and the vibe will be perfect.

Air signs - The air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) are the most sociable signs of the zodiac, and this is reflected in their approach to holiday decoration.

Gemini (May 21–June 21) -

Making their home look festive is not necessarily top of Gemini's list. For this sociable sign, it's more about making guests feel as welcome as possible.

Gemini (May 21–June 21) -

In the run-up to the holidays, Gemini will often be found stocking up on board games and joke ornaments. Celebrations are all about bringing people together.

Libra (September 23–October 23) -

Libras are all about balance; they'll never go for anything over the top. Hanging tasteful holiday art is a go-to for this symmetry-loving sign.

Libra (September 23–October 23) -

There will be no goofy snowmen to be found in a Libra's home. Instead, Christmas decorations will evoke a wintry scene, while providing perfect spacing.

Aquarius (January 20–February 18) -

For our Aquarius friends, the holidays are all about giving. They are just like their Gemini cousins in that way. Decorations will always have an outward focus.

Aquarius (January 20–February 18) -

From personalized stockings to funny holiday doormats, Aquarius is all about making guests feel welcome and having the best festive season possible.

Water signs -

The caring water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) adore the holidays. They love to create a warm and welcoming environment, both for themselves and loved ones.

Cancer (June 22–July 22) -

Cancer is the home bird of the zodiac, and will normally be found filling their home with festive aromas rather than worrying too much about decorations.

Cancer (June 22–July 22) -

That said, they love to harken back to holidays past. And what better way to do that than by displaying your favorite photos of years gone by?

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

Scorpios love a bit of depth to their decorative decisions. And what could be more symbolic of the holidays than chocolate?

Scorpio (October 24–November 21) -

Often associated with passion and decadence, chocolate treats are a must-have in the holiday home of a Scorpio. It may even be the main theme.

Pisces (February 19–March 20) -

Of all the signs, Pisces loves the holidays the most. People born under this sign normally have their shopping done in August and holiday music blasting in October.

© Shutterstock

Pisces (February 19–March 20) -

They are also fans of gathering the family in front of a classic holiday movie. Even if no one's up for watching, there will normally be something playing in the background.

Earth signs - And, finally, the earth signs, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. These signs tend towards the indulgent; they love holiday decorations that engage all five senses.

Taurus (April 20–May 20) -

The first of the air signs, Tauruses are all about material pleasures. They lean into all the five senses, including the often forgotten, but all-important, smell.

Taurus (April 20–May 20) -

For a Taurus, it's not enough to have their home look like Christmas—it must smell like it, too. Enter: the festive fragrance diffuser.

© Shutterstock

Virgo (August 23–September 22) -

Arguably the most practical of the signs, Virgo is the opposite of over the top. They are the opposite of Leo in that sense; any decorations will simply be the festive equivalent of the normal item.

© Shutterstock

Virgo (August 23–September 22) -

Think swapping out your favorite mug for a Christmas-themed one. There is also a lot of space for the natural world in the holiday home of a Virgo; lean into that leafage!

© Shutterstock

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

Winter is the season of the Capricorn, and it's a great time for this busy sign to slow down and take stock of the year. Decorations should be understated.

© Shutterstock

Capricorn (December 22–January 19) -

Warm light is the way forward for this tasteful sign. Decorations should provide a gentle reminder that there is light at the end of the long winter.
