Andromeda DavisCan you believe that 2019 is almost over? We’ve already dished up our predictions for the new year, but what about New Year’s Eve itself?
Here’s how every sign of the Zodiac is likely to be ringing in 2020.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries, you’ll be spending this New Year’s Eve at home with a good book… Just kidding! You’re the life of the party, and there’s no way you’d miss the end-of-the-year bash at your favorite bar or best friend’s house. In fact, you’ll be getting rowdy until well after midnight.
So what if you’ll be starting 2020 with a splitting headache? It was totally worth it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
A big loud room full of drunk people? No thanks! Traditional New Year’s parties are not your jam. You’d much rather have a decadent meal and a bottle of wine. Maybe some relaxing music in the background as you curl up on the couch under your favorite cozy blanket.
Basically, you’re in hibernation mode, and nobody is gonna drag you out of your cave for a stupid party.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Gemini, how many times do we have to go over this? You can’t go to ALL of the parties in one night. You’re a social butterfly, and everybody wants you to come to their event. But you’ll only get one place to ring in the new year, so choose wisely.
People can tell when your attention is divided, and it’s better to be fully present at one party than scattered and distracted at three.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
New Year’s isn’t a very family-friendly holiday. The traditions of staying up late and drinking champagne don’t really work if you’ve got young children or elderly parents to take care of. Cancer is one of the most family-oriented signs of the Zodiac, and even single Crabs aren’t really drawn to that kind of celebration.
Try making your own traditions with family (and friends) this year. What about making a wishing jar for the new year?
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Your idea of the perfect New Year’s Eve is the most exclusive, luxurious party in town. You want a chance to wear a fabulous outfit, drink lots of champagne, and take selfies to make everyone else jealous.
Don’t forget to actually enjoy yourself while you’re posing for the ‘Gram, though. You can get a little too focused on how other people see you.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)
No matter what you’re doing for New Year’s Eve, you probably have it planned to the nth degree. That’s just how you roll, Virgo, and there’s no use fighting your nature. Big parties aren’t necessarily your favorite way to celebrate, but if you are obligated to attend–maybe as a plus-one–then you’re going to do it perfectly.
Deep down, though, you’d rather be at home getting your planner ready for 2020.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Libra, your perfect New Year’s would be one of those fabulous throwback costume parties where everyone is dressed like flappers and the champagne flows freely while a live band plays jazz. Sophisticated and fun, a theme party gives you a chance to feel like you’ve stepped back in time for a night.
If you can’t find a party like that in your area, what about throwing one? If you start now, you’ll have a year to plan for 2021!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
No matter what kind of party you attend, Scorpio, you are most comfortable behind the bar. Mixing drinks is more fun (and less pressure) than mingling. While everyone else gets wild, you’ll be in the background making sure that they stay safe and get home in one piece. Most people don’t even notice, but you don’t mind. It’s a way to show that you care without being all sappy about it.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Did somebody say bar crawl? Sagittarius, a single, stationary party will not do! You need to make this night last as long as possible, and an epic, bar-hopping adventure is the best way to do make that happen.
Just make sure you’ve got a designated driver–or at least a ridesharing app ready to go. New Year’s is the most dangerous night to be on the road, and if you’re drinking then you should absolutely NOT be driving, okay?
Capricorn (December 23-January 20)
Hey, Capricorn, loosen up! If there’s one night of the year when you can let yourself have a good time, shouldn’t it be New Year’s Eve? You’ve worked hard throughout 2019, and you deserve a break.
If you have a partner, take them out for a night on the town–and don’t hold back on that midnight kiss. If you’re single, head to a club or bar where other singletons your age are partying. Don’t worry about anything except having a good time.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
New Year’s isn’t necessarily your favorite holiday, Aquarius. You see it as a time to reflect on what you accomplished over the past 12 months–and how much more you could do in the coming year. It’s a night to take stock and plan for the future. Your beverage of choice isn’t champagne but coffee–or maybe kombucha–as you give some serious thought to the state of the world.
To be honest, it’s kind of a downer. But our problems aren’t going to magically solve themselves at midnight.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
The end of the year is a strange, almost magical time for you, Pisces. It’s full of possibilities–especially since we’re starting a new decade. You’d like to spend your New Year’s Eve thinking and planning and dreaming of all the ways you’ll evolve. If you are spending the evening with other people, it’ll probably be a more subdued, thoughtful group. You don’t need fireworks disco balls to mark the end of the year.
