Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Aries is one of the most passionate zodiac signs, so it's not surprising that they are at the top of the list regarding romance. These rams are born to be bold and full of life. To be the winner of an Aries' heart, you have to be daring and unpredictable and be prepared to add some spice and variety to the relationship. Take them by surprise with a spontaneous weekend retreat or any sporting activity that will give them an adrenaline rush, like sky diving or rock climbing. Aries are also fond of sporting rivalry, so play them badminton or cricket and watch them sparkle.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Sensual Taurus, an earth sign represented by the bull, is all about enjoying the physical sensations of life that the world offers. For these foodies, romance is a multi-sensory one. Surprise Your Taurus lover with a couples' massage, and then have a candlelit dinner with foods known to increase your physical drive, like chocolate, oysters and figs. Besides, they will undoubtedly fall head over heels for thoughtful and luxurious presents such as soft cashmere blankets, scented candles, or silk lingerie. Taurians are nature lovers, so plan a romantic garden picnic.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
The adventurous, social twins are always ready and willing to experience something new and exciting. Plan a series of "blind dates" where you will be the ones to plan activities without letting the other person know what the plan is. It could be anything from visiting a new coffee shop to trying a weird and quirky activity like goat yoga. Gemini is fond of smart chitchat, so take them to the coffee shop and talk to them on the brain-teasers, wordplay, and intellectual discussions. Their minds are constantly in motion, so shake up your dates with activities like a calm museum walk and a lively comedy show.
Cancer (21st June - 22nd July)
The Crab is one of the most emotional and romantic signs. This sign is nurturing. Cancerians are the type of people who would rather spend the evening at home watching their old favourite movies with their partner while cooking a delicious meal together; how about surprising them by recreating the ambience of your first date or anniversary at home with candles, flowers, and their favourite music? Write a poem or letter full of heartfelt words and show your deep feelings. Cancerians treasure sentimental souvenirs, so give them a photo album or scrapbook that contains memories of your relationship.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Charismatic Leo people are natural performers who love to be the centre of attention and to be praised. Prepare a luxurious evening featuring all the accessories, such as dressing up, taking selfies, and treating yourself to a fancy multi-course meal. Fuel their dramatic side by reading romantic messages aloud or courting them with a love song. Leos are fond of grand romantic gestures such as having a beach or a park filled with candles and flowers and with a string quartet playing their music. Drown them in expensive gifts such as jewellery or designer accessories.
Virgo (23rd August - 22nd September)
Virgos, who are private and practical, tend to appreciate the small, intimate gestures that demonstrate that you are focused on and responsive to their needs. Get rid of the things they hate to do by doing it for them or cooking their favourite dish. Leave little notes with love hidden in places where they might not expect you. Think of budget-friendly dates, such as cuddling at home, sharing wine, having a deep discussion, or walking around a historic neighbourhood and admiring the beautiful architecture. Virgos value the quality time they spend with their partners in a setting that is dedicated to them only.
Libra (23 September - 22 October)
Libras have a good sense of aesthetics and strive for balance, beauty and harmony in everything they do – including romance. Forget about the competition and focus on yourself; turn your home into a place of beauty by lighting a candle and playing soft music. They will be elated at little things like having portraits taken by a professional or being taken care of with flowers, poems, and other artistic ways of expressing love. Organise dates with romantic finesse or a lovely outdoor concert. Present them with gifts they will love, like handmade jewellery or elegant home decor items.
Scorpio (November 22 - December 21)
Scorpios are one of the most romantic and passionate among all the signs and are very intense. They are searching for emotional closeness and the spiritual, otherworldly bond that surpasses the physical. Turn the lights down for your magical date nights and create a sensual ambience with cushions and mystical music. Read aloud from romance novels or poetry, look into each other's eyes and be lost in the moment. Scorpios also have a weakness for the mysterious and intriguing. You can give them symbolic, mystical gifts like birthstones, tarot cards or jewellery with deep personal significance.
Sagittarius (22 November - 21 December)
Those free-spirited archers must be matched with a partner whose level of thrill-seeking and spontaneity matches theirs. One day, make them wonder what is going on by taking them on an unannounced road trip without telling them where to go. Besides, try taking a dance, cooking or kickboxing class for couples, which will help bring out the playful side of your partner. Travelling is a big part of Sagittarius's life. Therefore, it's only fair that the journey is just as romantic as the destination. On such holidays, you can gift them items to help them explore their wanderlust.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Hardworking Capricorns possess a touch of tradition in their romantic desires. They will like you because you are going the extra mile to be a typical gentleman by opening doors for them, sending them flowers, or picking them up for dates. Plan nostalgic journeys like a drive to see Christmas lights or a ride on an old-fashioned railcar. At home, suggest your undying love to them by drawing a bath with rose petals or giving a massage with scented oils. Etch a meaningful note onto a classic gift, such as a pocket watch, a writing journal or a leather-bound book.
Aquarius (from January 20 to February 18)
The air sign Aquarius, which is intellectual, seeks uncommon romance and is attracted to the mind connection. Set up exciting date nights such as attending a lecture, taking a workshop to learn a new skill or a never-ending philosophical discussion over coffee and pie. Shock them with something unusual you can both get involved in, like visiting a psychic or going stargazing. Offer them unique and original presents that reflect your artistic side, for example, a self-made art book full of jokes and memories or tickets to the concert of their favourite band that is not widely known.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
The gentle, spiritual Pisces is always dreaming away and wants to experience heavenly love. Create the mood with the proper lighting, music and fabrics that are made of gauze. Slow dance under the stars, gaze at the moonlight and share your innermost wishes and dreams. Dream up dates like going for a tarot reading for a couple, attending a Renaissance fair, or exploring the mythical ancient ruins. Gift them objects with sentimental value like handwritten journals, religious symbols, or accessories with their romantic quotes or lyrics written on them.
