Scrolling Instagram is one of my favorite things. I love to see gorgeous apartments. The apartments are amazing, and I love the exposed brick!All of them have stunning decor. So if you’re like me and you’re obsessed with beautiful home decor and wish your house could actually look like the Pinterest board you’ve been carefully curating since your college days, you may want to spruce up your space a little as you’re spring cleaning.
But you can’t really try out every single design trend you love without your house looking like a hodge-podge of different furniture and styles (unless you’re a Leo—more on that below). Your zodiac sign may be the best guide to help you plan how to update your space. Your sign can reveal a lot about you, so you want your home to reflect that. Don’t be afraid if this sounds daunting. I’ve done all the hard work for you. Here’s how you should update your home, based on your zodiac sign.
Aries: Use bold, bright colors to express your personality
Bright colors will match the boldness of Aries. Bold and bright colors will make your home pop and bring out your youthful side. You can start with some colorful pillows, and then work your way up to a complete Crayola house.
Taurus: Get outside and embrace your natural side with natural materials
Nothing says “Taurus” like lots of wood and natural materials. It’s almost like being outdoors, which is perfect for this earth sign. Tauruses enjoy spending time at home and love the warmth of natural colors. To make it feel more like an outdoor space, you can replace your glass coffee tables with a wooden version or add plants.
Gemini: Make your space as flexible as you can
Geminis don’t like to commit to one thing, so making your spaces do double duty is essential. Your house should be adaptable to suit your Gemini personality. You don’t have to choose between a bedroom and a study or a living room and a gym—just make your rooms multi-functional. You can make your bedroom a reading area or place to scroll TikTok. Or you can dedicate a corner of the living room to your computer desk. You can also use an ottoman as an additional chair or a sofa to make your living room more functional.
Cancer: Create the space you desire
Cancers are homebodies, so you’ll need your house to be extra cozy if you’re going to be spending most of your time there. You can think fuzzy blankets, furry pillows and rugs, muted colors and dim lighting. Your place will have a calming vibe that’s welcoming to anyone you do let into your sanctuary.
Leo: Embrace maximalism
As a Leo, I can tell you from personal experience that when it comes to decor, more is always more—more pillows, more patterns, more colors. Leos are known for their desire to be the center of attention. A room that is decorated from head to toe will attract attention from everyone who visits. Leos love extravagant style like chandeliers or fluffy pillows.
Virgo: Use Earth tones to create a space that’s practical and comforting
Virgos will love earth tones. Not only are Virgos Earth signs, but they’re also practical, so trendy furniture and colors don’t exactly fit their aesthetic. More natural colors that can go with anything, like beiges, creams, and grays, are perfect for you if you’re a Virgo.
Libra: Make sure your home is prepared for hosting
Libras love socializing so why not decorate your living areas to be the host of your friends group? Whether it’s your kitchen, dining room, or living room (or if you live in a tiny apartment, maybe all of the above), make your home welcome to guests. You can update your dining room with fun chairs, or add additional seating to your living area to accommodate all your friends.
Scorpio: Enjoy privacy with sectioned spaces
Scorpios love privacy so open floor plans are out. But even if your house has more open space than you’d like, you can section off areas to make it feel less like you’re out in the open. If you live in a studio or loft, you can use a room divider to hide your bed so you don’t feel like people are intruding in your bedroom when they come over. To make your living room separate from your kitchen, arrange your furniture in such a way that your sofa is next to an end table.
Sagittarius: Make a Statement with Wallpaper
Sagittariuses love to have fun, and what’s more fun than printed wallpaper? Bright wallpaper will give life and energy to white walls. And if you rent, you can always try out removable wallpaper, which is perfect for Sagittariuses who don’t like to be tied down. You can also change your style easily with removable wallpaper if you get bored (which is what Sags do).
Capricorn: Forget trendy, go traditional
Capricorns themselves are traditional, and trends aren’t really their style. They are fond of structure and rules so traditional decor is the best. Capricorns also tend to be serious, so styles like bright colors or crazy wallpaper don’t exactly do it for them. Capricorns will be excited by rich colors, Persian rugs, antiques, and Persian rugs.
Aquarius: Add antique furniture that’s as unique as you
Remember in Friends that Phoebe wanted all her furniture to come from antiques and not Pottery Barn? That’s peak Aquarius energy (and Phoebe just happens to be an Aquarius). You can swap your boring coffee table for something more personal from Facebook Marketplace, your local flea markets or antique shops. Etsy has a lot of antique and vintage furniture.
Pisces: Create a dreamy area with curved furniture
Pisces loves soft and dreamy curved furniture. A white curved couch with a cloud-like appearance is the perfect choice for a Pisces who lives in the cloud. Pisces are imaginative and creative, so curved pieces are fashionable and unique.
