What’s Your Sign? Your Next Sex Toy, According to Your Zodiac

Astrology, like sexuality, should be expansive and exploratory, not something that makes you feel stuck in one set of ways. While each of us may have a favorite position, toy, or fantasy, exploring new aspects of our sexuality is a valuable part of intimacy with ourselves and others. 

Let the stars guide you

Likewise, while we each have a sun sign representing our “main” personality, we all have the entire zodiac within our chart. Your sun may be in fiery Aries, while your emotional moon sign might fall in nurturing Cancer, and your romantic Venus placement may be in curious Gemini. All of these signs and planets make up the multifaceted constellation of you (no pun intended), so use this lineup as inspiration to explore every aspect of your chart. If you have a partner, check their sign and ask them what they might be interested in trying. While you can explore every aspect of your and your partner’s charts, the placements that most pertain to sexuality and romance are the Venus sign, the Mars sign, the 5th house (for pleasure and creativity), and the 7th house (for long-term partnership). 

Remember that one of the most important parts of choosing a sex toy is ensuring that it suits you. The right toy should ideally fit your desired power level, price point, and ergonomics. If one suggestion intrigues you but is out of your budget, search the site for a lower-priced option. If you want an internal toy with less girth, filter by diameter to find the right fit. I recommend thinking of sex toy shopping as an exploration of options: some may be for special occasions, and some may turn into your trusted favorites. With that in mind, go forth and explore the sensual side of your natal chart! 

Your new fave sex toy, according to the zodiac

Aries: 

Aries are adventurous, energetic, and fun-loving sensualists. They are known initiators and are often captivated by intense sensations that command their attention. Fiery Aries may find themselves drawn to impact play like a moth to a flame: the controlled pain and power dynamics can release adrenaline and endorphins, heightening their senses and eliciting pleasurable emotions. The Rouge H-Style Leather Flogger is a classic impact toy that will draw all of Aries’ attention. Floggers can be used in solo or partnered play, and techniques can range from simplistic to sophisticated (see: Florentine style flogging). 

Taurus: 

Tauruses are sensual, grounded, and committed lovers. They have a unique appreciation for fine textures, sensations, and emotional connectedness with their partners. Boundless Bondage Rope satisfies Taurus’s standards for sensory play and environmental sustainability. As bunnies or riggers, Taurus will feel fulfilled by the sensation of being held by ropes, the emotional experience of being bound, and the exchange of trust inherent in rope play. Whether they’re suspending a lover by a tree branch or tying them on a lush throw by the fire, Taurus will love the various sensations, emotions, and environments they can explore with rope. 

Gemini: 

Geminis are energetic, playful, and intellectually curious. They love to play with duality, switch it up, and explore the multifaceted nature of their sensuality. The Lovense Lush 3 will pique Gemini’s interest with its high-tech, innovative design and possibilities. Gemini’s endless curiosity will be (almost) satisfied with unlimited patterns via the app, and the ability to sync to music. The Lush 3 is perfect for long-distance couples or travel enthusiasts, and nearly silent for whatever scenario Gemini may find themselves in. Geminis love having options, and it's especially important to make the right choice with a G-spot vibrator. This article on how to choose the right G-spot vibe for you will help you decide, regardless of your sign! 

Cancer: 

Cancers are caring, devoted, and intense lovers. They thrive on romance, and feeling both physically and emotionally close with their partners. Their beautifully tender hearts can sometimes cause them to retreat into their metaphorical “crab shell,” and some self- or partner-induced care can help coax them back out. The Kama Sutra Massage Candle allows Cancer to set the scene, dote on their partners, and receive some (much-needed) TLC in return. Indulge Cancer’s sweet, sensitive nature with a nurturing massage after a long day, or as a form of foreplay. 

Leo: 

In intimate moments (and, let’s be honest, in all moments), Leos want to feel like royalty. To win Leo's heart, shower them with affection: tell them they are pretty, marvel at their accomplishments, and dote on them with gifts. For Leos who want to feel extra special, the Soraya 2 is a leader in luxury sex toys. Leos can have it all with this rabbit vibrator: the Soraya 2 has internal vibration to stimulate the g-spot or p-spot, and external vibration for clitoral stimulation. With a gorgeous design that satisfies both their sensual desires and aesthetic sensibilities, Leo can be the star of the show with this vibe. 

Virgo: 

The “maiden” or “virgin” of the zodiac, Virgos are devoted, sensual, and sophisticated lovers. They are also surprisingly kinky (as they like it; they prefer to keep you on your toes). The sign of high standards, Virgos strive for perfection in themselves, their loved ones, and naturally, in their sex toys. For Virgos who want high-quality, earth-friendly orgasms, the Fun Factory Vim Wand is the upper echelon of vibrators. Surpassing the typical “texture” of vibration, the Vim Wand stimulates two types of nerve endings: Ruffini receptors (which respond to pressure) and Vater-Pacini corpuscles (which respond to vibration). With customizable speed settings to fit
their every desire, Virgos will be able to give and receive pleasure with this wand. A toy ten years in the making, its painstaking craftsmanship and sustainable manufacturing reflect Virgo's arduously high expectations and refined taste. 

Libra: 

Ruled by Venus, Libras are artistic and romance-novel-esque in their sensuality. Known for their people-pleasing tendencies, Libras want to make sure their partner is comfortable at all times, especially during intimacy. Libras pull out all the stops for their romantic gestures, including the adorable Liberator Heart Wedge Sex Pillow. Liberator pillows help Libras to keep their balance (see what I did there) while exploring new sex positions, allowing them to hit all the right angles and fulfill every fantasy. The heart pillow comes in nine colors (yes, including pink) to suit Libras’ aesthetic preferences. 

Scorpio: 

The archetypal sensualists of the zodiac, Scorpios are deep, emotional lovers attuned with the subconscious side of sexuality. They are known for being experimental, but there’s nothing a Scorpio loves more than a classic, sumptuous, and sizable toy. The Fun Factory Black Line Big Boss allows Scorpio to explore the depths, angles, and girths they desire. With a prominent head for G-spot stimulation, an ergonomic loop base for easy handling, and a 25% stronger motor that concentrates vibration in the shaft, not the handle, even Scorpios will be impressed by the craftsmanship of this toy. To top it all off, Fun Factory’s sleek Black Line design suits Scorpios’ intense, Plutonian nature. 

Sagittarius: 

Sagittarius is a fun-loving free spirit with a sense for the spiritual, philosophical, and big-picture ideas of life. The same can be said for their sensual side, where they are expansive, curious, and may find fulfillment in the spiritual aspects of sexuality.Sagittarius can add Coconu Body Oil with CBD to their tantric rituals, or to intensify any erotic adventure. Made with coconut oil, cocoa butter, and CBD, Sagittarius can relax, heighten their pleasure, and slowly explore their sensuality with this intimate oil.
(Note: oil-based products like this can damage latex and polyisoprene, and therefore are not compatible with condoms) 

Capricorn: 

Ambitious and loyal Capricorns want to please and be pleased. Devoted, hardworking, and high-quality lovers, they want a toy that reflects the same. Whether they’re dominating or submitting, Capricorns love the thrill of power dynamics. The Njoy Pure Wand is a trusted favorite that gives Capricorn full control. Weighing in at 1.51 pounds of solid stainless steel, this wand is a literal heavy hitter for powerful stimulation of the G-spot and P-spot. A toy for all bodies and power dynamics, and one that lets Capricorn put their signature muscle into their lovemaking. 

Aquarius: 

This air sign loves something out of the ordinary, and the Womanizer Premium 2 Clitoral Stimulator is a high-tech, versatile toy that uses suction instead of vibration. With 14 intensities, a Smart Silence feature, and an Autopilot setting that “takes you on a different journey each time,” Aquarians can exercise their creativity with this toy’s near-endless possibilities. The water bearer can take the Womanizer into the bath, too, as it’s 100% waterproof. 

Pisces: 

Pisces are creative, compassionate, and crave a deep emotional connection during intimacy. They are sensitive and generous lovers, and want to make sure their partner is both comfortable and free to explore their wildest fantasies. Sliquid Sea Natural Lubricant is a water-based lube with seaweed extracts to increase sensation, comfort, and closeness with Pisces’ partner and themselves. Body-safe, toy-compatible, and inspired by the ocean itself, Pisces can indulge all their passions with this subtle addition to solo or partnered play. 

A note on safety:
When exploring new sex toys, positions, and aspects of your sexuality, always keep safer sex practices in mind.

If you have any questions or concerns, ask your doctor, OB/GYN, or book a session with a trusted sex educator. Many cities offer instructional classes on rope bondage, flogging, and best practices for safety - if you’re in the NYC or Seattle area, you can check out Babeland’s schedule for in-person classes. If you are in a rural area or want to maintain your privacy, consider online options like Babeland’s virtual workshops, or classes on sites like Shibari Study and OhYesPlease. Always read toy manuals for safety considerations and other best practices. Doing your research and taking safety precautions allow you to have the utmost enjoyment (and least stress) in your sensual experiences.
