Virgo season is upon us, and from August 22 to September 22, this analytical earth sign is the star of the show. If you’re celebrating a Virgo in your life, chances are you want to find a gift that meets their, ahem, particular standards. Known for their meticulous, methodical approach to life, finding the best gifts for Virgos can be intimidating—but it doesn’t have to be!
“Virgo’s tagline is ‘I analyze,’” says Celeste Brooks, astrologer and host of the podcast Celestial Insights. So much so, they’ve earned the stereotype of being fussbudgets, but it’s only because they care. If you’re lucky to know a Virgo, it’s likely they’ve put a lot of thought into finding you a perfect gift. In turn, a gift created specifically for them will go a long way.
As the singular earth sign ruled by planet Mercury, Virgos also possess a strong sense of “practicality,” says astrologer and founder of Capricorn Rising Inc. Alex Caiola. They’re pragmatic and adept at creating routines, which they manage to uphold even amidst chaos (hello, Mercury retrograde). “Virgos are concerned with rituals, routines, and working diligently toward a goal with a level of dedication and organization often tied to perfectionism,” says Caiola.

Given this, one of the best gifts you can give a Virgo is something that will optimize their everyday routines. If not, something that will quell overthinking. “A lot of Virgos can be in their head, overanalyzing on how to make things better,” says Brooks. With this in mind, consider giving them something, “that helps get them out of their mind and into their body and into more relaxation,” she says. Because if there’s one sign that could really use some pampering, it’s our always-preserving Virgos.
