Travel By Astrology
So, you've decided you need to get away- and you need to get away fast! Where do you go? Perhaps your zodiac sign can give you a bit of insight on where the best locations for you to go may be. Whether you are a fire sign (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) who loves the rush of adrenaline, an air sign (Libra, Gemini, Aquarius) who enjoys social activities, an earth sign (Taurus, Capricorn, Virgo) who needs stability throughout your adventures or a water sign (Scorpio, Pisces, Cancer) who craves an escape, there is an enticing get-away location for every zodiac sign!
ARIES
Aries, you are ruled by the element of fire, meaning you are active, energetic and courageous. Aries are open to change and new experiences which is why many of you are likely to travel solo. As the first sign of the zodiac, you are children at heart who live for excitement and are always ready for a new adventure. This is why Bangkok, Thailand is the perfect place for you. This charming city welcomes you with a warm climate year-round and will never stop impressing you with its coexistence of attractions, diversity, and colors. You will be able to try delicious foods that you never thought you would eat, enjoy a boat ride through floating markets, hike all day long, marvel at the Buddhist temples and discover the hidden beaches that Thailand has to offer. Thailand is the perfect playground for an Aries.
TAURUS
As a Taurus who is ruled by the element of earth, you enjoy the finer things in life and can be resistant to change. The first step to overcoming any resistance is awareness of the fact that any fears that are connected to change are only temporary. Perhaps a Taurus should consider traveling for a longer period of time, so they have time to adjust to their new location and really take in all that the culture has to offer. As a Taurus, you love places that allow you to enjoy different sights and sounds, with lots of history and delicious pasta. What better place to go to than the romantic city of Florence, Italy? You can spend your days engaging with the history of various neighboring cities, taking in beautiful sights and artistic works, and you can shop till you drop鈥. for the best deals anyway!
GEMINI
Geminis are ruled by the element of air so they can have a hard time deciding on things, let alone a travel location. Perhaps Geminis should consider going to a place where there is a lot to see outside and somewhere that stimulates their curiosity. Gemini, you are usually energetic and quick-witted so an extremely culturally diverse city such as London in the UK would be perfect for you! The hustle and bustle of this city will give you plenty of people to talk to, and the eight Royal Parks will allow you to escape the city and fulfill your appreciation for nature. Did I mention Geminis have a knack for history and all things pop culture too? Well, they can quench their thirst for that here as well! London鈥檚 mixture of chaos and laid-back energy will undoubtedly satisfy a Gemini鈥檚 indecision on where to go and what to do.
CANCER
As a Cancer, you are known for being emotional and very imaginative because you are ruled by the element of water. Although you arguably love to be at home, you love to explore new places too. The perfect place for a Cancer to feel at home is in Athens, Greece because they will have the chance to let their imagination thrive while being seaside in the home of the Ancient Gods. Quite literally, you can walk in the same footsteps of some of the world鈥檚 greatest philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato. Cancers can also fuel their emotions by taking in the breathtaking views that Greece has to offer. From the amazing culture, local shops and farmers markets, to the beautiful black sand beaches, this place will surely inspire a Cancer in more ways than just one.
LEO
Leo, you鈥檙e all about passion and radiating cheerfulness. You crave all things glamorous and likely don鈥檛 mind being in the spotlight which explains why you prefer traveling to places that bring out your sense of self-expression. Leos are ruled by the element of fire, so they also prefer someplace where artistry is included in the cultural landscape. I鈥檓 sure you鈥檙e probably thinking to yourself鈥 鈥淪ounds like Paris!鈥 That鈥檚 right, Leo would fit right in with the romantic vibrancy of Paris, France. This beautiful city is full of art, delicious food, fashion and of course, passion. Paris is the perfect location for Leos to welcome inspiration and feel content with their lives 鈥 hopefully, all while eating as many crepes as they please. Not only does the Eiffel Tower make for a flawless picnic spot but it is also the perfect backdrop to a picture-perfect photo. I鈥檓 looking at you, Leo!
VIRGO
Virgos are known for being practical and incredibly hard-working people which makes sense since they are ruled by the element of earth. If anyone needs a relaxing getaway, it鈥檚 you, Virgo! Maybe it is time for you to take a breather and put your toes in the sand on a beach somewhere. How does island-living in Suva, Fiji sound? You will be sure to fall in love with the tropical beaches just outside the city that are perfect for surfing, snorkeling and taking in the scenic views. You鈥檒l also be likely to enjoy hiking and walking trails in the nearby mountains! Take in the culture of Suva or simply lay back and allow your worries to fade away. Let go of the desire to be connected to WIFI and priorities, disconnect from your troubles, unwind and be happy Virgo, you need it.
LIBRA
Ah, Libra! You are known for being as indecisive as Gemini, if not more, and this is because you are both ruled by the element of air so maybe 鈥 hopefully 鈥 with the help of a suggestion, Libra will decide once and for all. As a Libra, you have diplomatic qualities that play into your liking to think and communicate your ideas. You are a social butterfly, so it might come as no surprise that you鈥檙e drawn to exciting, upbeat and unique cities like Tokyo, Japan.

Tokyo 鈥 a city that never sleeps 鈥 is not only perfect for Libra鈥檚 need for socialization but the country itself fulfills Libra鈥檚 need for aesthetic beauty. There are mountains, historic temples and of course, blossoming cherry trees to be admired for their stunning views. You鈥檙e always asking for someone to make the decisions for you Libra, so what do you think?
SCORPIO
As a Scorpio who is ruled by the element of water, you will need something exciting! You are full of passion and bravery so sometimes you are mistaken for a fire sign but as a water sign, you are also observant, intuitive and creative. You are known for being all about transformation, so traveling to someplace that delivers a feeling of renewal would suit you well.

Sagittarius, you are open-minded and free-spirited so your itch to travel and adventure in new places is probably never-ending. Traveling makes you feel free rather than stuck. As a Sagittarius 鈥 ruled by the element of fire 鈥 you strongly dislike being held back or controlled by anything. Your boundless energy can thrive in unfamiliar places because you have a special talent for embracing new experiences. Who knows, maybe your spontaneous nature will have you on the next flight to somewhere exciting 鈥 such as Australia鈥檚 Gold Coast 鈥 before you know it! The vibrant Gold Coast is the perfect next getaway for a Sagittarius because they love being outside and surrounded by nature. Not only is there the opportunity to snorkel the beautiful ocean reefs and surf or lounge on the beach, but the Gold Coast has some of Queensland鈥檚 best national parks to explore and the hinterland mountain ranges to hike.

CAPRICORN
As the zodiac sign most known for their hard-work, Capricorns deserve a break. Capricorn, you are practical and ambitious, so it is unlikely that you will settle on just any travel destination; you have your ruling element of earth to thank for that. Rather than settling on just anywhere, you probably want to embark on trips that pose a challenge, hold some kind of importance or meaning and feel immensely rewarding. If we鈥檙e talking a bucket-list kind of trip then Shanghai, China is an exciting choice for Capricorns. Shanghai is the largest city and financial capital in China!
