Astrological Gift Guide: 12 Queer Gift Ideas, Broken Down by Zodiac Sign – Them

The mental health benefits of sticking your face in a splash of rainbow are immeasurable. SAD lamps are great, but extra-spectral magenta across the eyeballs is fabulous! Decals and glass film work really well to blast a daytime room with color, particularly when placed in east/west windows. You can choose from different patterns to dapple your Leo’s space with varying streaks of saturation. If your Leo is particularly fancy, you can also achieve excellent rainbows by stringing up crystal chandelier pieces near their windows. (You can find bulk lots of various shapes on Etsy and eBay.) 

For those Leos who prefer to catch their colored light at night, there’s always neon! While genuine noble-gas-inside-bent-tubes neon is unfortunately probably over budget for most of us (though always so amazing to admire!), a small piece can be relatively affordable.

A broad suggestion for a gift idea certain to please all Virgos? Ha! Trick question, you can’t trap me with this! Virgos are all so particular, each in their own idiosyncratic ways. The only surefire, no-risk way to acquire the perfect gift for your Virgo is to inquire: you have to flat-out ask them what they want.

Virgos generally appreciate this. They don’t want you to waste time and money on displeasing them; they are quite happy to assist! Rather than a list of product links, that’s the only real suggestion I can give you here: ask your Virgo to choose their own gift, then procure it.

However, if you’ve fallen deeply under a Virgo’s sway and feel desperate to impress them, you may remain determined to attempt the Olympic-level feat of surprising a Virgo with a gift they will truly love. This is not impossible! It is merely difficult, time-consuming, and comes with a risk of catastrophic failure… all of which Virgo will appreciate if you manage to pull it off. 

In order to gift a Virgo satisfyingly, you must do some espionage. Now is the time to harness your sleuthing skills. Does your Virgo maintain Pinterest boards, or wishlists on shopping sites? That’s a start, but you have to be careful: they might curate wishlists strictly, but they could also be using them as a more general bookmarking system — the accuracy is iffy. Now, think about everything your Virgo has ever said and posted over the course of their entire life. Have they ever evinced a wish for something specifically? There you go!
