Finding the Perfect Flower for Your Zodiac Sign

People have looked up to the night sky in search of insight and meaning since, well, the beginning of humankind. Astrology is the ancient practice of following the celestial bodies in the sky to make predictions about life and guide your decision-making. While you may know your Zodiac star sign, you might not know that there are certain flowers specifically assigned to each profile based on their symbolic meanings and qualities. 

While it is always interesting to learn more about your Zodiac profile, this is also a great way to choose a floral gift for a friend, family member, or special someone in your life. Whether you are a bold Aires or a glamour-loving Libra, there is sure to be an astrologically perfect flower for you that you will absolutely love.

Aries (March 21 - April 19) 

Aries is the first sign on the Zodiac chart. The Aires sign symbolizes both new beginnings and resilience through difficult times. One of the flowers that is associated with the Aires sign is the sweet-smelling honeysuckle. Honeysuckle grows during early springtime in cooler temperatures during the evening. Known for its sweet fragrance and vivid colors, honeysuckle honors the determined spirit of the Aires mind and heart. 

Taurus (April 20 - May 20) 

A classic Taurus is attracted to beauty, glamour, and opulence. There is nothing like an abundance of petals blooming from a flower arrangement filled with dahlias. Known for both their volume and generous size, a dahlia’s bloom perfectly encapsulates this star sign’s bright and bold personality. Dahlia’s are best cultivated in the autumn months, but beautiful varieties can be sourced all year round. Their different shapes and sizes allow for a wide variety of choices within this flower type. 

Gemini (May 21 - June 21) 

Geminis are known for their social, fun-loving personalities. Lavender is a fitting flower for this star sign because its signature fragrance attracts those far and wide with a sense of beauty and familiarity. This sign is full of natural wit and charm, and the lavender plant matches this sign in its sweetness. In fact, you can even turn lavender into a lovely aromatic essential oil to provide a sense of calm throughout the day. 

Cancer (June 22 - July 22) 

Cancer signs are reputed to have a soft spot in their hearts for white roses. The delicate white petals symbolize the sensitive nature of Cancer. The white color is a blank canvas that allows Cancers to explore their creativity and thrive. The Le Petit floral arrangement in the Venus ET Fleur® Classic Collection captures the stunning classic nature of Cancer beauty. 

Our Le Petit arrangements feature four stunning Eternity Roses set in a Parisian-inspired square hat box vessel. These arrangements embody not only what the Cancer sign represents, but Venus ET Fleur as well; beauty, elegance, sophistication, and appreciation of the luxuries life has to offer. 

Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Leos are known for their bold and confident personalities, so the flower that falls under this sign must be a definite showstopper. The sunflower is a classic nod to the Leo spirit, from their soaring height to bright and dazzling yellow petals. These flowers represent both loyalty and happiness, just like the Leo sign. 

This large and sculptural bloom is unique and instantly recognizable, making it hard for any other flower to outshine the ray of sunshine petals. Resembling the sun itself, these flowers also symbolize the desire to seek light and truth in the world. 

Virgo (August 23 - September 22) 

The organized and detail-oriented Virgo sign will be drawn to the meticulous intricacies of the chrysanthemum. Also referred to as mums or chrysanths, these special and unique flowers are born before the wintertime, making them resilient and strong in the face of the cold seasons ahead. 

Their bright and vibrant color schemes serve to remind us that cheerful joy and happiness can be found even in the dark depths of winter. These flowers come in a variety of different shades and colors, so you will be sure to find the perfect one for either your home or garden. 

Libra (September 23 - October 23) 

The symbol of the Libra sign is a scale, which represents composure and balance. Libras are known for loving love and harmony. A red rose, reflecting romance and beauty, is a beautiful representation of this astrological sign. Our Round Grandiose DE Venus™ arrangement is filled with 200 to 250 of our Eternity Roses in a monumental round Parisian-inspired hat box. This is a sweeping gesture of beauty and love that is sure to touch any Libra’s heart. There are few universally crowd-pleasing flowers like a red rose, and it truly reflects the social and community-loving nature of the Libra spirit. 

Scorpio (October 24 - November 21)

Scorpios are known for their ability to strike the delicate balance between creating mystique and cultivating magnetism in their personalities. A garden rose is a solid pick for the Scorpio Zodiac sign. Just like a rose, Scorpios can sometimes prick you when you least expect it. Garden roses are cherished for their full-bodied timeless beauty, with several options to choose from.

At Venus ET Fleur, gorgeous Eternity® Garden Roses are delicately incorporated into our Maison Collection arrangements. The Allura Vase with Mixed Eternity Flowers™ is an arrangement that bursts with bright, bold hues and a whimsical sense of vigor. It features a mix of garden roses, gardenias, and hydrangeas. Each arrangement is meticulously designed by our skilled floral designer in our exclusive handcrafted porcelain vases.  

Sagittarius (November 24 - December 21) 

The Sagittarius star sign is known for being happy, cheerful, confident, and ambitious. A brightly bundled bouquet of bougainvillea is a charming choice for this effervescent sign. Known for its vibrant color hues, this flower is ambitious in its growth. Its stems and leaves spread far and wide regardless of the terrain. These popular flowers are a lovely choice for a Sagittarius, whose sign is known for especially loving love. 

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) 

Hellebores, which are also known as Lenten roses or winter roses, are known for their tenacious fighting spirit. This fits perfectly with the determination exhibited in the Capricorn star sign. A winter flower, they persevere against the odds by blooming while there is often still snow on the hardened cold ground. 

This flower is a staple for a cottage garden landscape. They bring both color, beauty, and hope. Capricorns are known to be hard-working and often are very career-oriented. Hellebores work alongside almost any other flower in a bouquet, complimenting others while still shining bright on its own. 

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) 

The flower that is most commonly associated with the Aquarius sign is the elegant and delicate orchid. Orchids are luxurious, graceful, elegant, and strong. They come from a fragrant, diverse, and large flower family. They are easily distinguishable for their unique and delicate vertical build. 

Aquarius’ are known for their empathetic natures. They are in tune with the energies of those around them. Similarly, the orchid flower is very sensitive to its environment. However, if properly cared for, an orchid can live for 100 years. This fits the avant-garde, individualistic, and independent nature of the Aquarius Zodiac experience. 

Pisces (February 19 - March 20) 

The classic elegance of the Pisces sign is symbolized in flower form as a water lily. Demure and delicate-natured, the water lily is a beautiful floating dream that rests atop a body of water. Like a water lily, the Pisces sign is artistic, unique, and whimsical. They often find themselves floating along the river of life, enjoying the ride as it comes, and love to share this sense of fun with everyone they meet. 

As Pisces is a water sign represented by a fish, it is fitting that its flower is water-based. Water lilies reflect truthfulness, good fortune, and peace.

In Conclusion 

While your birth date and corresponding Zodiac sign may not determine your destiny, they can prove to be a useful guide in choosing the perfect flower for you. Next time you are debating whether to send bold red roses, multicolored hydrangeas, or a beautiful bouquet of sunflowers, you can leave the final decision up to the constellations. Every sign’s personal connection to its flower will only further deepen the meaning behind the thoughtful arrangement.
