Making a “bucket list” can be a great way of motivating yourself to try new things and go on epic adventures. Travel often tops most people’s lists–but with all the amazing destinations to visit on this planet, how can you choose?
Luckily, astrology can give you some insights into which bucket list vacations are best for your Zodiac Sign.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
It’s not that Aries doesn’t appreciate museums or fine dining. But when it comes to your ultimate bucket list experiences, adrenaline is key.
That’s why visiting someplace that offers bungee jumping, cave diving, or zip-lining is perfect for you. Look into destinations such as Costa Rica or New Zealand.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Do you enjoy travel, Taurus? The stars suggest that you prefer to stay at home. However, it’s a good idea to get out of your comfort zone from time to time.
You probably wouldn’t love a tour that packs in as many cities as possible in the shortest amount of time. Instead, choose a place where you can settle in for a week or two and get to know the land and its people. May we suggest Tuscany?
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Choosing a bucket-list vacation isn’t hard for you, Gemini. In fact, the challenge is picking just one! You love to travel, or at least to dream of all the places you’ll go if you ever get the time and money.
If you really want to dream big, then consider the world cruise offered by Cunard. It’s roughly 3 months of travel that will literally take you around the entire globe.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Cancer, I’m going to tell you a secret. It’s okay if you want to travel without your family. In fact, taking a solo vacation might just be the best thing you ever do for yourself. Whether it’s a weekend or a full 2 weeks of adventure, traveling by yourself can recharge your batteries and teach you things about yourself you never knew.
If you’re overwhelmed, consider a package tour that will handle all the logistics for you.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
What happens in Vegas? There’s only one way to find out! The lights, gambling, and glamour of Las Vegas appeal to you, Leo.
Just make sure to stick to a budget and gamble responsibly if you make the trip, okay? If possible, splurge on a hotel package where you’ll be treated like royalty.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Admit it, Virgo–sometimes you enjoy planning the perfect vacation more than the actual trip. That’s because the real world is messy and unpredictable. It would be good for you to take a solo trip where you can just relax for a week.
Japan would be a good choice for you, but you would enjoy the splendor and tranquility of Kyoto more than a busy city like Tokyo.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Ah, Paris. The most sophisticated and beautiful place in the world–at least according to the movies.
While the real Paris has a lot more to it than just Eiffel Tower, you’ll appreciate the art, architecture, fashion, and food of the French capital.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Your number one vacation priority? Make it someplace hot. The thought of taking a cruise to Alaska leaves you cold in more ways than one.
Instead, consider making your way to Egypt. There’s something deeply appealing to you about the buried treasures of that ancient civilization.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Sagittarius, I have a challenge for you. This will test your physical and mental resolve, but ultimately it’s going to change your life.
You should consider walking the Camino de Santiago, a one-month hike through northern Spain. You’ll meet other hikers along the way, see some incredible scenery, and force yourself to slow down and meditate on the journey.
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
Capricorn, although many people dream of traveling abroad, you should consider the classic American road trip. There are countless drives to choose from, depending on how long you can be gone from work and where you live.
The drive to Key West is a memorable trip, as is the coastal journey down California 1. Or, if you have the time, what about a full tour of Route 66?
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
You have mixed feelings about travel, and that’s okay. On the one hand, you want to see and do as much as you can in your life. On the other, you know how much commercial travel impacts the environment.
Choose an eco-friendly tour or volunteer to do good while you’re traveling. If you’re really concerned about your carbon footprint, what about taking the time to explore your hometown like a tourist?
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Traveling can be tough for a Pisces, since you become easily overwhelmed in unfamiliar places. However, if you pushed yourself out of your comfort zone, you might find that it’s well worth the effort.
The romantic, Old World city of Prague would be a perfect match for you, Pisces. Are you brave enough to try?
