Wanna know where to travel based on your Zodiac sign?
Where will the stars take you? Welcome to MsMojo, and today we’re counting down Where to Travel Based on Your Zodiac Sign.
For this list, we’re letting the stars decide where your next trip should be. As such, the locations featured in this video are chosen based on their compatibility with one of the 12 Zodiac Signs. Let’s get to it!
Born between February 19th and March 20th, Pisces are gentle, spiritually inclined individuals that tend to keep an open mind in the face of new experiences. This translates perfectly to Iceland, a country known as much for its otherworldly landscapes as for its folklore surrounding Huldufólk, invisible elves that call the icy plains of the North Atlantic island home... allegedly. Pisceans offset their yearning for solitude with friendliness and curiosity, making them a perfect fit for a county that contains vast swathes of beautiful emptiness and is populated by some of the nicest people on the planet. Oh, and let’s not forget about Iceland’s world-famous hot springs, the perfect place for water-loving Pisces to relax after a long day!
In the words of professional astrologer Chani Nicholas, “Intellectual stimulation and creative inspiration are the two most important considerations for the Aquarius traveler.” Born between January 20th and February 18th, independent and unconventional Aquarius should thus set a course for the North African country of Morocco. Home to a rich cultural history that lives on through some of the world’s most spectacular architecture, the four imperial cities of Marrakesh, Fes, Meknes, and Rabat will keep Aquarius’ engaged with their palaces, bustling bazaars and countless other historical attractions. For a truly original trip that will satisfy Aquarius’ penchant for the exotic, Morocco is the place to visit.
If you’re born between December 22nd and January 19th you’re a Capricorn, so listen up. Perhaps more so than any other country, Japan continues to precariously balance centuries of cultural tradition with the newfound wonders brought about by the technological revolution. This makes its capital city of Tokyo a perfect fit for the traveling Capricorn. Known as much for their ambition, energy and independence as for their respect for tradition and family values, Capricorn’s are the likeliest of Zodiac’s to truly appreciate both sides of Tokyo’s eclectic coin.
Built in the 12th century, this visually arresting Buddhist temple complex is the largest religious monument on Earth, covering an area of roughly 162 hectares. It’s thus the ideal spot for Sagittarius’s to spread their adventurous wings. Known for their love of travel and the outdoors, as well as for their philosophical viewpoints and affinity for ancient cultures, this zodiac is guaranteed to get their kicks cruising around Angkor Wat in a tuk-tuk. In the pantheon of zodiac’s who love to travel, Sagittarius reigns supreme. As such, any Sagittarius worth their salt needs to cross Angkor Wat off their bucket list tout suite!
In the words of astrology experts Paula Pavlova and Katie Huang, “Scorpio is a deep, sometimes brooding, but always beautiful sign.” Born between October 23rd and November 21st, Scorpio will find its extremely compatible with the South African city of Johannesburg – which is known as much for its controversial history as it is for its status as a cultural melting pot teeming with passion and personality. Resilient, brave and always on the hunt for their next great passion, Scorpio’s will find a visit to Jozi similar to the feeling they get when they look in the mirror.
Known as “the fair judges of the world”, Libras are the most diplomatic, balanced and gentle of the Zodiac signs. They value harmony above all else and are constantly on the lookout for beauty, both in the partners they seek and the environments they visit. Additionally, Libras love symmetry in all aspects of life. With that in mind, it’s only right that they take a trip to the transcontinental city of Istanbul, which serves as a bridge between Europe and Asia. In this way Istanbul is the best of both worlds, offering visiting Libras a chance to discover the rich cultural histories of not one, but two diverse regions.
We can think of no better place to send the analytical and nature-loving Virgo than the ancient city of Machu Picchu. An architectural marvel and UNESCO World Heritage Site, Machu Picchu will have Virgo’s of all shapes and sizes completely enamored thanks its meticulous stonework and ingenious layout. Built on a mountain, the city is surrounded by one of the most impressive engineering feats of its time: cascading terraces built as a way for the Inca’s to grow crops despite being nearly 8000 feet above sea level. Known for their attention to detail and love of Mother Earth, Virgos will find solace in Machu Picchu’s engineering feats and picturesque setting, high above the Sacred Valley of the Incas.
Born between July 23rd and August 22nd, a love of travel is a major part of Leo’s personality. This Zodiac also errs on the side of fun, passion, luxury and being the “king of the jungle”. With that in mind, Leo’s should add Bali to their bucket list ASAP. This island province has consistently been ranked as one of the premier travel destinations on Earth, thanks in part to its stunning beaches, buzzing nightlife and world-class excursions. On Bali, Leos will also find the fun and luxury they crave day in and day out, with numerous 5-star resorts to choose from and a slew of thrilling activities; including rafting, surfing and scuba diving.
Unlike some of the other Zodiac signs on this list, Cancers aren’t known for their love of travel, preferring to stay home where they feel most at peace. However, this sign belongs to the element of water, and occasionally hankers for a slice of sun and a relaxing spot on the beach. For a mix of both, we recommend Cancers take a trip to the Great Barrier Reef, located off the coast of northeastern Australian. There Cancers will have the choice to surf, snorkel, scuba dive or simply swim in the waters surrounding this natural wonder and UNESCO World Heritage Site – which is home to more than 3000 reef systems and 1500 species of fish.
Curious but a little timid, adventurous yet reserved, laid-back but hungry for new experiences; Geminis are two personalities rolled into one. As such, they need a city that can cater to both sides of their very different coin. Situated in the north of Thailand, Chiang Mai is Bangkok’s calm, cool and collected cousin. This chilled out city is the perfect place for Geminis to find inner peace while still satisfying their thirst for knowledge. One minute you can be on a scooter, heading towards an Elephant sanctuary and the next you can be in an infinity pool with a cold beer in your hand. Bustling street markets at night give way to relaxed yoga sessions in the morning. For a split personality like Gemini, Chiang Mai is the place to be!
Born between April 20th and May 20th, Taurus and the City of Lights go together like cheese and crackers – and a glass of fine French wine, of course. Known for their patience and devotion, as well as for their love of the finer things in life – from food and music to architecture and fashion – Taurus was made for Paris. The French capital is home to historic architecture, world famous museums, high end shopping and some of the best food known to humankind. For the Zodiac who loves nothing more than to indulge, Paris is the perfect place for a vacation.
Chani Nicholas remarks that “Aries wants a trip that is challenging, that will reveal to them their own strengths, but will also bring some peace and tranquility.” Well, few places on Earth offer visitors a juxtaposition between tranquility and adventure quite like the Hawaiian island of Kauai. There Aries can satisfy their independent spirit and thirst for adventure with a hike to the end of the Kalalau Trail, an 11-mile trail that is as challenging as it is breathtaking. Known as much for their bravery, optimism and determination as they are for their love of competition, Aries will no doubt find Kauai a suitable opponent, worthy of their desire for constant physical and mental challenges.
