Are you having trouble thinking of the perfect Mother’s Day gift for your Mom?  Astrology can help.  Each of the 12 signs of the zodiac have different personality characteristics, and interests, that you can use as a guide as you shop for your Mother’s Day gift.  Here are some great ideas, by Zodiac sign, for your special Mom: 

Aries–Your Aries mother is bold, aggressive, and a trailblazer.  The perfect Mother’s Day present for her would be:

1. Tickets to any grand opening event—Aries loves being the first in anything
2. Tickets to see a Blue Angels flight demonstration—Aries rules the military and your mother will love this gift.
3. A trip to Gettysburg or any other well-known military battleground—for the same reason as above
4. Tickets to her favorite sporting event
5. A full weekend at a spa where she can be pampered in style

Taurus—Your Taurus mother is earthy, tactile and—I know you hate to hear this—sensual.  The perfect Mother’s Day gift for her would be:

1. Any silk or satin garment—Taurus women (and men) love the feel of these types of material.
2. A home-cooked meal.  If you want to make it even more satisfying for her, prepare her a meal of steak and potatoes!
3. Take her to a strawberry field—you know, one of those that let the customer’s pick their own strawberries.  This will appeal to the earthiness of your Taurus mother.
4. Singing lessons.  Taurus rules the throat, and Taurus people usually have beautiful singing voice.  Perhaps this is an untapped—until now—talent of your mother’s
5. A silk, Champaign-colored peignoir.  She will feel like a glamorous movie star. 

Gemini—Your Gemini mother is versatile, intellectual, and is fascinated by any form of communication.  The perfect Mother’s Day gift for her would be:

1. A book of crossword puzzles—this will give her hours of mental-challenging fun
2. A computer
3. Books—this is an absolute must.  Fiction or nonfiction, it doesn’t really matter as long as it is printed between two covers.  Geminis love to read.  Always give her at least one book, alone or in combination with her other gifts. 
4. A satellite Internet program for her cell phone—that way, she can still keep in touch while she’s on the go. 
5. Books-on-tape.  Although your Gemini mother loves to read books with her own eyes, she will also love to be able to listen to her favorite book while she’s driving or cleaning the house or doing the myriad other activities of this hyperactive sign. 

Cancer—Your Cancer mother is a sensitive homebody who loves her children and loves being a mother.  The perfect Mother’s Day gift for her would be:

1. Hand-pained pictures from her children (or grandchildren)
2. Top-of-the line cookware.  Cancer women love to cook.
3. Plush slippers, as she loves to spend half the day in her pajamas, just lounging around the house.
4. A “Mom is the Best” plaque for her living room wall
5. Cookbooks.
