Here’s How You Should Spend Valentine’s Day, According To Your Zodiac Sign

As a fire sign, Aries would have the most fun doing something active this Valentine’s Day, which is why Bly suggests planning a bowling night.

Aries is ruled by Mars, the warrior planet, which means they love some friendly competition. Bowling is also lighthearted and kind of silly, so it’ll bring out their fun-loving side.

Taurus is looking to kick back and relax this Valentine’s Day, so keep things low-key and chill. This earth sign would love a massage at a spa — or a couple’s massage if they’re feeling extra romantic.

Alternatively, if they’re going solo this year, they can treat this as the ultimate self-care day, says Bly. “A massage is the perfect way for Taurus to unwind and get into their comfort zone.”

Gemini is always eager to wear a cute outfit and get out of the house, which is why Bly suggests going to a fancy restaurant for a nice dinner.

As an air sign, Gemini loves people-watching, too, so ask for a seat in the middle of it all. Follow it up with a cocktail at a swanky bar, and it’ll make for the perfect evening.

When you’re a Cancer, nothing screams “love” quite like a romantic note, so fill the day with hand-written letters, cards, and adoring texts.

“Known as one of the most emotional signs, they will appreciate a Valentine’s Day gesture that touches the heart,” says Bly. Words of affirmation are their love language, after all.

Out of all the signs of the zodiac, Leo most appreciates traditional Valentine’s Day fare like roses, boxes of chocolates, and shiny gifts. So, to make the most of the day, they’ll definitely need a bouquet.

For the solo Leos, it would be fun to take a flower arranging class, says Bly. For Leos in a relationship, take a trip to the florist on your way home from dinner.

A Virgo would appreciate a practical approach to Valentine’s Day. Instead of dropping cash on an expensive dinner or vase of flowers that’ll wilt all over their clean table, Bly says they’d prefer an experience, like a pottery class.

“Not only will it be a fun activity to do together, but they’ll appreciate the fact that they can reuse whatever item they make in their everyday lives,” she says. As an earth sign, they’ll also enjoy the art of molding clay.

Libra is 100% down for a mini adventure this Valentine’s Day. If the weather is nice, Bly suggests a morning bike ride, an evening boat tour of your city, or a romantic mini hike.

If it’s snowy and cold, bundle up for a wintry walk in the park or get coffee and bop around town. “Libras live for excitement, especially in relationships,” says Bly. “Sparks will fly after a day spent outdoors.”

Whether single or coupled up, a Scorpio will fully appreciate a candlelit dinner. According to Bly, this water sign enjoys activities that match their enigmatic spirit, so anything sultry and jazzy will feel just right.

Solo Scorpios can set a pretty table and have friends over for snacks and drinks, while Bly suggests couples go to a dimly lit bar that has interesting cocktails and a live performance.

The last thing a Sagittarius wants to do on Valentine’s Day is stay in. This fire sign likes to have fun no matter the holiday, so they’ll find a way to go out whether they’re single or taken.

“A few fun date ideas include a farmer’s market, cooking class, wine tasting, or drive-in movie,” says Bly, though they would also be down for a concert, comedy show, or a karaoke night with friends. As Bly says, “Sagittarians will enjoy anything that brings excitement.”

Capricorn is more than happy to stay in and cook a homemade meal. “They are generally the least intense about Valentine’s Day compared to the other signs,” says Bly. Instead of getting mixed up in the crowds, they’d prefer to relax at home with a bowl of pasta. To make it feel like the day of love, pop on a rom-com.

As a sign ruled by the visionary planet Uranus, Aquarius will never say no to an artsy date at a museum. They would love to walk around, look at paintings, and have deep discussions, and then grab a glass of wine afterward.

“Alternatively, you could take a trip back in time by checking out a history museum together,” says Bly.

A Pisces doesn’t have to go anywhere to have fun on Valentine’s Day. In fact, this water sign is happiest when they’re at home on the couch.

They’re all about getting snuggled in for a movie night, but if you do want to go out, Bly suggests hitting up an old-timey movie theater for the romantic vibe.

This is perfect for the single Pisces of the world, too. Nothing beats going to a movie sans distractions and having the popcorn all to yourself.
