When Tali Edut, one half of The AstroTwins, ELLE’s resident astrologers, was first learning about astrology, she looked to the stars—Hollywood’s stars. “That’s kind of what got me,” she explains. “I would start to see the link between celebrities,” realizing how different groups fell under each zodiac.

Now, as an astrology expert, Edut is well-versed in the signs of all your favorite celebs. Which one comes to mind as the celebrity who truly exemplifies their sign? Edut doesn’t hesitate: It’s the ultimate Libra, Kim Kardashian. “Every sign is connected to a body part, and Libra rules the butt and lower back,” she says. “She broke the internet because of her ass. They’re also the sign of beauty and harmony and order. She’s front row at every fashion week but was also a closet organizer before she became reality-star famous.”

As for which celebs represent all the other signs, Edut breaks down each one, below.

Aries

When it comes to explaining celebrity astrology, Edut says she always uses Aries—“the most obvious divas out there”—as the prime example. Some of those legends include superstars like Aretha Franklin, Diana Ross, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Marvin Gaye, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Pharrell—essentially any singer who’s “most likely to have an extended stint in Vegas,” Edut adds. “They just have that cardinal fire sign, so they’re going to blaze brightly and hold their own on the stage.”

Taurus

For Edut there’s one iconic Taurus: Adele. “Taurus rules the throat,” she says. “They’re very sensual. They’re the slow jammers, and [Adele] has written every slow jam anthem out there.”

Gemini

Geminis exhibit a fluid, transitional energy, giving us celebrities like Prince, who, instead of a name, eventually started going by a

Cancer

Cancers are our watery, sensitive celebs, including people like Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, and Khloé Kardashian. Edut also adds that Cancers are ruled by the moon, meaning they can get moody and have a hard time letting things go. Another famous Cancer? Margot Robbie. “[Cancers] are kind of the ultra femmes, and of course, she’s the Barbie of our time,” she says.

Leo

It’s no surprise that a bunch of big-name celebs are Leos, the zodiac sign that’s known for being confident, driven, and cool with being the center of attention. Just a short list includes Kylie Jenner, Demi Lovato, Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, and Meghan Markle. “They kind of all court controversy but play innocent at the same time,” Edut says. “They’re sweet but feisty.”

Virgo

Virgos—celebs like Beyoncé and Zendaya—are known for being grounded and hard workers, but Edut says, they can also have an amazing sense of rhythm and be great dancers. “Michael Jackson was a Virgo. Pink is a Virgo, who’s amazing with her acrobatics on stage.”

Libra

Libras are a bit tricky, Edut says, explaining that they can be both romantic and spicy sometimes. (She notes that people like Bruno Mars, Lil Wayne, Eminem, and Gwen Stefani are all Libras.) So what unifies them all? “I just think they’re all so good-looking, like Bella Hadid. They’re the judges and critics too. They can be very: This is the way it is, like Gwyneth Paltrow and her Goop edict. They’re very beauty-focused, very much about looking good, being styled up.”

Scorpio

Scorpios are our sly, sexy celebs, i.e. the Ryan Goslings and Penn Badgleys of the world. “They’re like definitely the sex symbol types,” Edut says. “And mysterious.” Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, Willow Smith, Winona Ryder, Matthew McConaughey, and Kendall Jenner are all Scorpios. “They’re kind of edgy, punk rock, doing it their way. Ryan Gosling is super private. You don’t know anything really about Scorpios. They share selectively.”

Sagittarius

When it comes to Sagittarius celebs, you’re going to find a lot of pop stars, Edut says, including Miley Cyrus,Nicki Minaj, Britney Spears, and Taylor Swift. “[They’re] everybody’s best friend in a way. They have that larger-than-life personality. They’re rebels, but also good girls. Sagittarians are known for being generous, ruled by Jupiter, the planet of generosity—I heard [Taylor Swift] gave [people] who worked on her Eras tour a $100,000 bonus.” They’ve also “got to tell it like it is,” Edut says, pointing out that Sagittarians are often known for their outspokenness.

Capricorn

One of the most well-known Capricorns is, of course, Michelle Obama, a “strong woman in charge,” Edut says. “Also it’s an earth sign, meaning Capricorns are very devoted to fostering growth. Obama, for instance, did so much with the garden and for kids. They’re just women of steel.” Another celeb who represents Capricorns’ “iconic energy”? Edut points to Kate Middleton.

And good news for any Capricorns out there: Edut says they age in reverse and a lot have an “iconic stage” when they’re older (Dolly Parton, Betty White, Diane Keaton—all Capricorns). They can also be the best at what they do (LeBron James, John Legend).

Aquarius

“They are just here to be weird and not give a fuck,” Edut says of Aquarians, pointing to singers Alicia Keys and Harry Styles. She adds that they can also have that goofy, girl-next-door energy, like actor Jennifer Aniston.

Pisces

Our Pisces celebs are full of emotions and feelings. See: Rihanna, Drew Barrymore, Millie Bobby Brown. “Sometimes it almost feels like they’re getting the short end of the stick,” Edut says. They can also be a sign of sacrifice, she adds, and sometimes champion a cause, like Simone Biles standing up for mental health.

Dot your i’s and cross your t’s, my babies, ruling the skies from August 22 – September 22, but running the show every damn day is Virgo.

A mutable earth sign, Virgo energy is discerning; it’s about acts of service, the controlled cure, and the vision of things not as they are but as they could be.

Virgo is ever operating from intention rather than impulse; words are measured, actions weighed. In some ways, it is the sign of our better angels and divine potential.

What are Virgos like?

24 Illuminati cultist or high-frequency Virgo? What’s the difference? Beyonce

They make it look easy, folks, but they work very, very hard.

As an earth sign, they aren’t concerned with acquisition and comfort like Taurus nor building a legacy like Capricorn.

Virgo wishes to be useful.

Virgo shares the spirit of caretaking with the cardinal water sign Cancer, but while crabs want to tend to others, Virgo wants to teach them how to tend to and fend for themselves.

Consider Virgo musician Buddy Bolden, lauded as the father of jazz; his style of playing was so powerfully original that it birthed an entirely new genre.

Yet, not a single recording of his exists today.

The ballad of Bolden suggests what Virgos innately understand, that the evidence of genius is measured in the enduring echo of influence.

Virgo is the most common zodiac sign by the numbers, but their earth-born medicine and practical magic are wholly unusual when distilled and distributed.

In a nod to the uncommon but common, the lesson for Virgo is perhaps best expressed by one of their own, the poet Mary Oliver.

Though her poem “Wild Geese” is well-read, oft-quoted, and taped to many a dorm room wall, it is a message that bears repeating.

“You do not have to be good.

You do not have to walk on your knees

For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.

You only have to let the soft animal of your body

love what it loves.

Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.

Meanwhile the world goes on.

Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain

are moving across the landscapes,

over the prairies and the deep trees,

the mountains and the rivers.

Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,

are heading home again.

Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,

the world offers itself to your imagination,

calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting —

over and over announcing your place

in the family of things.”

As Oliver intimates, Virgos shine when they can abandon themselves without hesitation or self-hatred to the purity of their primal selves, exchange pain with others, and conspire with the wilderness within and around them. In doing so, they offer the rest of us a standard of humility, wholeness, and humanity to which we can aspire.

Planetary ruler: Mercury

Virgo is ruled by Mercury, the planet of consciousness and communication.

Named for the messenger of the gods, Mercury also rules Gemini, but the planet’s energy manifests itself differently in each sign.

For airy Gemini, Mercury is about the rapid exchange and absorption of information and the search for answers. For Virgo, an earth sign, the influence of Mercury is equally curious but more vested in practical solutions.

Here, Mercury brings awareness to the material plane, and natives are adept at seeing not only what is but what could be. Mercury obeys reason more than emotion, which lends Virgo a critical lens and an objective approach to problem-solving.

Virgos have an undue reputation for being uptight when, in fact, the influence of Mercury in conjunction with their mutable modality lends itself to highly affable and relentlessly adaptable folks.

Virgo is willing to change their mind, methods, or macrobiotic diet if it makes sense or allows them to be of greater help to others. To that end, Mercury governs service and daily routines. These people want to be useful, to do well, and to be well.

Not for nothing, nun organizing, poor aiding, Nobel Peace Prize-winning humanitarian Mother Teresa was a Virgo, and International Make Your Bed Day falls during Virgo season.

I rest my case.

Mythology

24 Virgo is Latin for maiden, and the myth of Virgo is associated with the abduction of Persephone by Hades. IMDB/Disney

The largest of all the zodiac constellations, Virgo has many mythic ties but is most often associated with the story of the earth goddess Demeter and her daughter Persephone. Once upon a time, the world lived in an unending season of spring, with Demeter, the goddess of grain, ensuring that all things stayed in full bloom, full time.

The largest of all the zodiac constellations, Virgo is associated with the myth of the goddess Demeter and her daughter Persephone.

Seasons changed, and winter came when Persephone was abducted by hell daddy Hades and taken to the underworld to be his bride.

Bereft at the loss of her daughter, Demeter cast the earth into barrenness. She beseeched Zeus to return Persephone, and he appealed to his brother Hades. A deal was struck, and Persephone was permitted to leave the underworld on the condition that she ate nothing until she returned to the land of the living.

24 Virgo is associated with Demeter, the bringer of seasons. zwiebackesser – stock.adobe.com

Reports vary, but either Hades, the dubious character that he is, purposely gave Persephone a pomegranate seed to suck on, or she ate it willingly, preferring to be a queen of the dead over being infantilized above ground. Thus, Persephone was returned to her mother but was forced to return to the underworld for four months every year.

The synergy between Virgo and Persephone/Demeter is reflected in the sign’s sense of duty , a willingness to go to hell and back and a propensity for choosing subpar partners at every turn.

This cycle of surrender and return explains the change of seasons; winter reigns when Persephone dwells in the underworld, and spring returns when she is reunited with her mother. The alignment between Virgo and Persephone/Demeter is reflected in the sign’s sense of duty and service, willingness to go to hell and back, and a propensity for choosing subpar partners at every turn.

Charms/strengths

Apex Virgo and repentant aristocrat Leo Tolstoy wrote, “The truth is obtained like gold, not by letting it grow bigger, but by washing off from it everything that isn’t gold.”

With this sentiment, Tolstoy points to one of the high-shine strengths of the Virgo ilk: discernment.

Virgos are naturally adept at divining value, sensing faults, and recognizing potential in all things and all people. This translates to the tendency to be preoccupied with refinement and perfection. This tendency can come across as judgment or critique but is more about observation and assessment than condemnation.

They aren’t judging you; they’re seeing you. Moreover, what they see makes them want to help. While Virgo is absolutely about pushing an agenda and keeping order, the soft belly of that bullying is a desire for efficiency and efficacy that benefits the collective.

“The truth is obtained like gold, not by letting it grow bigger, but by washing off from it everything that isn’t gold.” Leo Tolstoy

Virgos are not in it for the glory and rarely pause to appreciate what they’ve achieved, fixed as they are on what else can be done. Further, adversity is akin to diesel fuel for Virgos, who thrive on being underestimated like Virgo GOAT Jesse Owens.

To that end, Virgos, like all earth signs, are built to endure, though they often take on and take more s**t than necessary.

Poised and averse to high-octane drama, Virgos are rarely messy, especially when falling apart. Adept at survival and allergic to looking weak, they want their suffering to have meaning, to benefit others, and to stand as an example of what can be overcome.

We see this modality in Virgo Evan Rachel Wood, whose own experience of abuse led her to become an activist on behalf of other victims and survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence. Her efforts led to the passing of the Phoenix Act, which extends the statute of limitations for sexual assault survivors.

When it comes to making a stand, making art, and making their way through the world, Virgos don’t showboat; they just show up.

24 Beyoncé, born September 4th, is the patron saint of Virgos. Getty Images for Shawn Carter Fo

As Beyoncé explained to Vogue Magazine, “I’m not alive unless I am creating something. I’m not happy if I’m not creating, if I’m not dreaming, if I’m not creating a dream and making it into something real. I’m not happy if I’m not improving, evolving, moving forward, inspiring, teaching, and learning.”

Indeed, the process of creating and evolving is more important to Virgo than the product of that trajectory. For further evidence of Beyoncé’s incomparable Virgoness, watch this clip, where our regal earth queen gets her hair caught in a fan onstage and doesn’t panic, stop the show, or miss a single god***n beat.

Imbued with relentless imagination, Virgos are natural world builders; we see this expressed in artists, writers, and proud power-playing geeks like Tim Burton, Roald Dahl, Stephen King, Tyler Perry, and George R.R. Martin.

The influence of Mercury makes Virgos clever and quick but also prone to anxiety, overthinking, questioning text messages they sent ten years ago, and tensing at the thought that they have been wrong or done wrong. Their preoccupation with cleanliness, order, spotless floors, and color-coded condiments is a way to divert and expend this mental energy.

The taxing, contemplative nature of the Virgo mind is beautifully personified by the viral Sad Keanu meme.

Our boy is a Virgo, and he’s got a lot to think about, folks, not least of all the legion of people having sex with his avatar and how to redistribute the cash he has earned but doesn’t think he needs or deserves.

Bless.

Some upshots of the overactive mind of team Virgo are that they remember everything and are absolutely hilarious, making high art of self-deprecation.

More than happy to ruminate over the personal problems of others and themselves, they are excellent at giving advice, shining light, showing levity, and providing practical solutions to pressing problems. We love you, Virgo, and we see you too.

Challenges/weaknesses

24 Typically, Virgos keep it together, but when they fall apart, they go full-blown tiger blood breakdown like native son Charlie Sheen. Getty Images

The very desire for betterment that drives Virgos can also paralyze their progress. Needing something to be perfect before it can be seen and shared is a bit of a blessing/bane among this contingent, and they tend to get in their own way.

Additionally, for all of their prodigious talents and gifts of discernment, they fail to see their worth. This makes them endearingly modest and infuriatingly hard on themselves. Many secretly fear that they are not fun and are somehow unlovable.

There’s a bit of a “nobody likes me, everybody hates me, I guess I’ll go eat worms” vibe here, except they won’t eat worms because their bellies are preternaturally vulnerable to upset.

We’ve established that Virgos are adept at seeing where and when things can be improved, but their keen vision and “helpful” insights can only be received and applied if their perspective is invited.

Not everyone can stand to be seen, and natives would do well to tread lightly and make suggestions gently.

Along these same lines, the Virgo ability to see what could be rather than what is lends itself to them routinely slumming it in romantic relationships. These people view derelict houses and derelict romantic partners as irresistible DIY projects, looking at you, LeAnn Rimes, Lala Kent, and Amy Winehouse.

Of Virgo director Werner Herzog, critic Roger Ebert once said, “Even his failures are spectacular.” A sentiment that rings true for his zodiac brethren.

24 Wildly talented with a penchant for toxic relationships, Amy Winehouse expressed both the blessings and banes of her zodiac sign. Getty Images

Virgo’s tenacity is astounding when applied to constructive and/or creative pursuits and downright staggering when they put it towards their unmaking. Case in point, the arch of cocaine-snorting, tiger blood drinking, goddess bedding Charlie Sheen or George “I will ride this lawn mower to the bar if you hide my car keys” Jones.

24 Tammy Wynette and George Jones. Redferns

Some of the most illustrious trash monsters in history have been Virgos, including Caligula, the ever-industrious Ed Gein, and Ivan the Terrible, who was described as “intelligent and devout but also prone to paranoia, rage, and episodic outbreaks of mental instability that increased with age.”

All in line with low vibrational Virgo energy.

Tarot

24 Virgo is represented by the Hermit tarot card, a symbol of cures found and knowledge gained through seclusion and surrender. Getty Images/iStockphoto

In the Major Arcana of the tarot, Virgo is represented by the Hermit. The card depicts a cloaked, bearded figure atop a solitary mountain, holding out a lantern.

The figure can be interpreted as a shamanic father time type, and the lantern as the light of truth and consciousness. The Hermit card carries a spiritual connotation, suggesting that it is through separating the self from the masses and retreating into the richness of reflection and the natural world that cures can be found and wisdom sought.

Fully formed, wholly himself, and with the vantage of the mountaintop, the card, like the sign, serves to remind us that when we look within, we never feel without.

24 Barefoot in the forest = Virgo porn. Halfpoint – stock.adobe.com

The energy of the Hermit card is distilled by writer, super freak, and fellow Virgo D.H. Lawrence, who espoused,

“This is what I believe: That I am I. That my soul is a dark forest. That my known self will never be more than a little clearing in the forest. That gods, strange gods, come forth from the forest into the clearing of my known self and then go back. That I must have the courage to let them come and go. I will never let mankind put anything over me, but I will always try to recognize and submit to the gods in me and the gods in other men and women. There is my creed.”

And so, too, is it the creed and the cure for Virgo; nothing is finished, and nothing is perfect; we honor the clearing in the forest by bowing to the godly, resisting the lowly, and exalting in the knowledge we find between.

Sixth House

Virgo rules the sixth house of service and survival.

Commonly called the house of health, the sixth house concerns itself with our ability to maintain ourselves and keep the true north of our bodies amid crisis, illness, and discontent.

It ain’t all green tea, colonics, and billowing linen pants, folks; it’s about how we build ourselves back from devastation, how that journey shapes us, and how we can apply that knowledge to help others. This is where and how service and health begin their braiding. We need strength to serve others, but our frailty teaches us what it means to need.

The lesson of the Sixth House is to integrate mental, physical, and spiritual energy and to balance self-care and acts of service so that we can fill up and pour from the same proverbial cup.

Body

In relationship to the physical body, Virgo rules the abdomen, spleen, and digestive system. This lends itself to natives relying on their strong “gut” instincts and a tendency to feel emotional upset, stress, and anxiety in their bellies first.

Sensitive to what others say and the food they eat, the great Virgo gift of order is best applied to a clean diet that keeps their bodies functioning like the temples they are, rather than the truck stops they can be.

Compatibility

24 Mutable sees mutable in the match of Virgo Zendaya and Gemini Tom Holland. FilmMagic

True astrological compatibility is divined through synastry, a kind of birth chart cross-examination that considers the entire astrological scape of two individuals. For general, expedited purposes, it’s safe to say the following signs stand a good chance of going the distance with a Virgo:

Virgo and Gemini are both mutable signs, meaning natives are highly adaptable and prone to changing their minds, plans, and middle names.

Ruled by Mercury, the planet of intellect and exchange, these two prioritize communication and find in the other a mental match. For evidence, look no further than Virgo high priestess Zendaya and her Gemini main piece, Tom Holland.

No one understands the complexity, obsessions, and dedicated spirit of a Virgo better than a fellow Virgo. We see this common sign and uncommon bond distilled in musician Nick Cave and his designer wife, Susie Bick. Together for decades, they operate as mutual muses to one another and, we suspect, keep an impeccably organized home and curated closet.

24 Virgo plus Cancer equals a carebear coupling. Getty Images

Virgo and Cancer are the uncontested caretakers of the zodiac, and in each other, they find the reciprocity they deserve. This is the match of tended home fires, a relationship of retreat and restoration. We see this dynamic at work in the longtime love between Virgo Lisa Van and Cancer business partner and househusband Ken Todd.

So, whether you’re looking for a perfume you’ll reach for every day or one to spray on before a night out, you have options. Below, we’ve gathered scents to represent every zodiac sign in your birth chart, from a tantalizing cherry for passionate Aries placements to a tropical oasis-inspired fragrance for dreamy Pisces.

Finding your signature scent takes time and patience, but knowing your zodiac sign could help give you a head start. Don’t just pay attention to your sun sign, though—your rising and Venus signs are just as important, if not more. “The rising sign is how we show ourselves to the world,” says celebrity astrologer Ally Lewber. “It’s a lot about our appearance [and] our physical body. The Venus sign is all about how we spoil ourselves. It’s luxury, skin care, fashion, makeup, and scents.” Venus also represents romance; Lewber refers to it as the “sexy sign.”

01 of 12 Aries The first sign of the zodiac, Lewber says Aries is the sign of “adventure, taking risks, and energy.” As a fire sign, you may be drawn to scents with smoky or woody facets. Lewber also recommends looking for warm, bold spices and rich, statement-making gourmands, like a boozy cherry accord. Perfumes for Aries: Matiere Premiere Crystal Saffron Eau de Parfum, $220.00 Shop Now Crystal Saffron is an intoxicating blend of saffron and incense oil layered over a creamy ambroxan base. It creates a powerful scent trail (also known as sillage) that lasts all day, so it can keep up with your packed social schedule. Fine’ry Not Another Cherry Eau de Parfum, $37.00 Shop Now Lewber says that your sign might be drawn to “tasty” notes, which makes Not Another Cherry an essential for your collection. With a combination of cherry, amaretto, almond, and a subtle, barely there rose, this option is as playful as it is decadent. Tom Ford Black Orchid Eau de Parfum, $160.00 Shop Now Perfumer Bérénice Watteau describes Black Orchid as a “striking, sensual, and enigmatic floral fragrance [that] leaves a powerful, memorable signature.” With a punch of addictive spices, velvety-rich florals, and syrupy vanilla, it’s not for the faint of heart, but neither are you, Aries.

02 of 12 Taurus Taurus is ruled by Venus, which means you’re especially in tune with luxury and aesthetics. “Taurus is all about hard work, but they love to play,” says Lewber. “They like to enjoy their reward: shopping, fine food, drinking fine wine.” She recommends “calming, grounding” perfumes with notes of lavender, cedar, and sandalwood, or light florals. Perfumes for Taurus: Maison Loius Marie No.13 Nouvelle Vague Eau de Parfum, $98.00 Shop Now This scent smells about as plush as your favorite post-shower robe. The first spray sparkles with a hint of citrus before it mellows into a creamy, comforting fig with hints of coconut. Veronique Gabai Délices des Bois, $290.00 Shop Now While Nouvelle Vague is a cozy, woody fig, Délices des Bois resembles the fruit fresh off the vine. Lemon top notes give it a joyful, sunlit quality, while the cedar and sandalwood base channels your sign’s innate sensuality. Aesop Aurner Eau de Parfum, $200.00 Shop Now Aurner is labeled as a floral fragrance, but it’s more herbaceous than this classification lets on. Chamomile provides a delicate contrast to cardamom and pink pepper top notes, while a heart of magnolia and geranium leaves gives off a fresh, spa-like impression.

03 of 12 Gemini “Gemini is the storyteller of the zodiac, so they’re going to need a scent that allows them to feel like they’re telling a story,” says Lewber. “They’re very experimental with scents.” Don’t try to limit yourself to just one signature, Gemini; as a mutable sign, you tend to collect a wide range of fragrances that fit almost any scent profile. Perfumes for Gemini: Régime des Fleurs Crushed Fruits Eau de Parfum, $260.00 Shop Now Crushed Fruits is a fruity, iris-forward scent that smells like a cross between a tube of red lipstick and a bag of strawberry candy. It’s exuberant and unexpected, with added juiciness courtesy of a medley of fruits: plums, raspberries, peaches, grapes, and pineapple. Whind Pomello Mint Tea Leaves Eau de Parfum, $150.00 $120.00 Shop Now This fragrance is as cool and refreshing as a tall glass of—you guessed it—mint iced tea on a hot day. As it wears, it transforms from a light, breezy citrus into a woody, aromatic base with a touch of brown sugar—perfect for keeping everyone around you on their toes. Dedcool 01 “Taunt” Eau de Parfum, $30.00 Shop Now An airy, not-too-sweet vanilla like Taunt is the perfect encapsulation of a Gemini who’s always flitting from one topic of interest to the next. This one also contains hints of bergamot and amber for a playful, flirty touch.

04 of 12 Cancer “With Cancer, think nostalgia, think history,” says Lewber. “And because they’re a water sign, [they’re] going to give a kind of floating, mystical feel.” You’re most drawn to nostalgic scents that remind you of your childhood, or scents similar to the candles you unwind with at home, because they make you feel safe and nurtured. Perfumes for Cancer: Giorgio Armani Prive Pivoine Suzhou Eau de Toilette, $195.00 Shop Now Did you grow up with someone who loved to garden? If so, this airy eau de toilette will flood you with memories. In between a fresh citrus top note and a cozy musk base lies a “delicate, blooming peony fragrance that captures the soft, pink petals in full bloom,” according to Watteau. Gabar 05 (Ludlow) Lull Eau de Parfum, $166.00 Shop Now This is a creamy, coconutty musk that instantly soothes. It’s cozy and cocooning, with a subtle tartness from a cherry heart note and warmth from its sandalwood and white musk base. Wear this to feel like you’re curled up in your favorite comfy sweatshirt, all the time. Belnu Chai Fleur Eau de Parfum, $170.00 Shop Now This scent will make you feel like you’re sipping a hot chai latte in the park during the first days of spring, when there’s still a chill in the air but the sun is finally out. It combines comforting chai spices with aromatic notes of lavender and green violet, and a woody vanilla base.

05 of 12 Leo Leos are ruled by the sun, which equals instant magnetism and “showstopper energy,” says Lewber. “They’re the life of the party, they’re the sun, so eyes are on them,” she adds. You’ll want to look for bold, flirty scents, possibly with a hint of smoke or spice, that are guaranteed attention-grabbers. Perfumes for Leo: The Harmonist Hypnotizing Fire, $250.00 Shop Now Hypnotizing Fire opens with spicy clove and pimento notes before it dives into an irresistibly smoky, resinous, and not-too-sweet vanilla that lures in compliments like moths to a flame.

Valentino Donna Born in Roma Intense Eau de Parfum, $105.00 Shop Now Walking around in a cloud of vanilla will have heads swiveling, Leo. Donna Born in Roma Intense amps up the original perfume’s vanilla note and pairs it with warm, rich amber and intoxicating jasmine. Alloy Studio Idyllic, $170.00 Shop Now This perfume is bursting with juicy pineapple, blood orange, and a kick of fresh ginger, creating the impression of humid summers spent sipping a fruity drink and laughing with friends late into the night. The gold bottle is a natural match for your sun-ruled sign.

06 of 12 Virgo Analytical and witty, Virgo is drawn to clean, fresh-smelling scents. Your sign is billed as “the helper” of the zodiac and is all about hard work and efficiency, but Lewber adds, you still have a taste for the finer things and love to treat yourself to luxuries both big and small.

Perfumes for Viro: Obvious Parfums Milk & Matcha, $170.00 Shop Now Subtly sweet orange blossom and creamy vanilla sit side by side with earthy matcha and mate oil in this refreshing eau de parfum. “It’s like sipping your matcha while catching up on the latest news—fresh, calming, and subtly intellectual,” says Watteau. D.S&DURGA Rose Atlantic, $210.00 Shop Now Even if traditional rose perfumes aren’t your style, Virgo, you’ll love the crisp, dewy freshness of this saltwater-infused option. A pinch of bergamot in the top notes brightens this otherwise aquatic floral.

Try Studied, a thoughtful blend of sparkling pear, sophisticated orris, and creamy, enveloping ambrox.

07 of 12 Libra Libra, you’re best known for your harmonious nature and your indecisiveness. According to Lewber, this means you might have a rotation of scents you love rather than just one signature. She says you’re drawn to light florals, crowd-pleasing scents that earn you tons of compliments. And that’s because you’re an air sign—you always have your finger on the pulse of what’s trending in the fragrance world. Perfumes for Libra: PHLUR Strawberry Letter Eau de Parfum, $99.00 Shop Now Strawberry is the note to watch for this spring and summer—but of course you already knew that, Libra. In Strawberry Letter, the strawberry smells dewy and freshly picked from the garden, before it dries down into a lightly floral amber base. Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau de Toilette, $137.00 Shop Now It’s almost impossible to find someone who doesn’t love this iconic 2000s perfume. There have been countless flankers, but we’re making the decision easy for you: the original formula strikes the perfect balance between fruity, floral, and fresh. Santa Maria Novella Medici Garden L’Iris Eau de Parfum, $180.00 Shop Now Housed inside this gorgeous golden bottle, you’ll find a sheer floral scent that will remind you of stretching your sun-warmed limbs on freshly washed cotton sheets. It’s clean, soapy, and soft; perfect for a Libra’s sensitive and romantic demeanor.

08 of 12 Scorpio “Scorpio is a very intense, very powerful sign,” says Lewber. She recommends a fragrance with smoky, mysterious notes like incense and woods, or ethereal fragrances that you can’t quite put your finger on. Whatever you choose, look for a fragrance with some hidden complexity—Lewber compares your sign to a “deep, dark ocean.” Perfumes for Scorpio: Mabelle O’Rama Lunar Dust Eau de Parfum, $160.00 Shop Now Perfumer Mabelle O’Rama took her inspiration from the night sky and how the longer you stare up at it, the more stars start to slowly reveal themselves. The fragrance unfolds similarly; it’s barely there at first spray, then it develops a cooling, almost-icy and powdery iris within the first minute of application. MALIN+GOETZ Leather Eau de Parfum, $100.00 Shop Now Soft leather scents tap into your sign’s nostalgic nature. This one in particular evokes the spine of a well-worn, leather-bound book, with an unexpected freshness courtesy of lotus flower, lily-of-the-valley, orchid, and green violet. Jil Sander Smoke, $290.00 Shop Now Smoke pairs bright, sparkling aldehydes with a dark, unexpected base of elemi, oud, and cedarwood. “It captures the fresh scent of clean linen drying by a crackling fireplace: a blend of smoky sensuality and the contrast of shadow and light,” says Watteau.

09 of 12 Sagittarius As a Sag, you’re always jumping from one thing to the next, so it’s no wonder you don’t have just one signature scent—or even a full bottle of perfume. Instead, Lewber says you likely have a stash of travel-size fragrances you carry with you for every excursion. Look for one that makes you feel “alive,” she says, or that reminds you of a favorite vacation. Perfumes for Sagittarius: Vacation After Sun Eau de Toilette, $60.00 Shop Now After Sun smells like the aloe vera gel you slather on after too many hours spent playing in the ocean’s waves or spiking a volleyball on the sand. It’s just as lively and filled with energy as you are, with notes like minibar gin and resort towel plush. Plus, the 1 oz. bottle is TSA-approved. Imaginary Authors In Love With Everything, $115.00 Shop Now Your sign’s lust for life aligns perfectly with In Love With Everything, an explosion of fruit punch, raspberries, and, according to the notes list, stardust. This is whimsical at every sniff, from the fizzy first spray to the jammy drydown. NOYZ The Solid Fragrance Sh**ty Day, $42.00 Shop Now Solid fragrances are ideal for your action-packed schedule, especially this one, which comes in a compact, easy-to-apply tube. The scent is fresh and invigorating, with a blast of salty oceanic notes and a ripe fig heart.

10 of 12 Capricorn As ambitious and hard-working as you are, Cap, you also know the importance of treating yourself. “They’re the sign that, even though they’re going to be on a Zoom call, they’re still spraying their perfume,” says Lewber. “They’re going to smell good regardless of who’s around, or even if no one’s around.” In that vein, she recommends seeking out sophisticated, “grounding” scents. Perfumes for Capricorn: YSL Libre Absolu Platine Eau de Parfum, $169.00 Shop Now Herbal, aromatic lavender and creamy orange blossom sit center stage in this elegant and androgynous choice. It’s as soothing as it is elegant—perfect for grounding your earth-sign energy while still being polished enough to apply before post-work dinner and drinks. Arquiste The Architects Club, $205.00 Shop Now This smooth, sophisticated vanilla scent is a far cry from sugary or juvenile. It opens with a dry gin note, which provides a cooling contrast to the warmth of vanilla absolute, amber, cardamom, and woods. It’s the tasteful, grown-up gourmand your sign has been searching for. Comme des Garçons Black Pepper Eau de Parfum, $110.00 Shop Now Watteau calls this a “bold, woody-spicy fragrance that showcases the raw intensity of pepper.” “Original and elegant, it’s a unique scent that perfectly complements the ambitious, independent Capricorn,” she adds.

11 of 12 Aquarius Lewber calls yours the trickiest sign to decipher. “If you’re an Aquarius rising, Venus [or] sun, you’re probably picking something for some random reason that nobody understands,” she says with a laugh. “Maybe it was your best friend’s scent growing up, and it reminds you of them. Aquarius is all about the collective and groups of people, so they could also pick a scent that feels really welcoming and warm; something that says, ‘I come in peace.’” Perfumes for Aquarius: Maison Margiela Replica When the Rain Stops Eau de Toilette, $85.00 Shop Now “For Aquarius, they probably would give off a scent that feels a little like a cloud, very daydreamy,” says Lewber. Why not then reach for a perfume that mimics the cooling scent of damp earth and a storm that just broke, with a whisper of rose petals and zesty bergamot? Binaurale Matchbox Romance Eau de Parfum, $185.00 Shop Now Matchbox Romance plays velvety rose and carnation against the strike of a match. Its flickering, flame-like quality comes from a base of frankincense, vetiver, and tobacco leaf. “Eccentric and imaginative, it’s as unconventional as the Aquarius personality itself,” says Watteau. Future Society Invisible Woods Eau de Parfum, $98.00 Shop Now Slices of tart grapefruit and candied ginger float above the branches of a eucalyptus tree in this sheer, woody fragrance. Every scent in the Future Society line is inspired by the DNA of an extinct flower, which will stoke the interest of knowledge-seeking Aquas.

Priyanka Chopra, the celebrated actor and star of the film ‘Heads of State,’ recently found herself at the centre of an online debate due to her food preferences expressed during a rapid-fire question session. The incident unfolded on the red carpet at the premiere of her latest film, where Chopra was asked to choose between various popular dishes.

During the interview, Chopra was hesitant when asked to pick between empanadas and samosas, deciding, “Depends on the mood.” Her indecisiveness continued when choosing between enchiladas and chicken tikka masala, as she remarked “both.” However, it was her swift preference for hot dogs over the Indian snack vada pav that drew significant attention, as she admitted, “I love a vada pav, but hot dog is my weakness.”

A reaction video was edited and shared by a reel creator, Pushpek Sidhu, who is also known for critiquing American TikTokers, on his Instagram handle.

Watch the video here:

The Desi internet reacted swiftly, with many expressing their disappointment over her choices. While some considered her preference “absolutely blasphemous,” others defended her freedom to choose. Comments such as “Since when is Indian food better than Mexico food? Lmao” and “She is free to choose hot dogs over Vada Pao or any dish over any other dish. Doesn’t make her anti-Indian” reflected the divided opinion online.

The mixed response included comments like “True. But cmon! CMON!!! Hotdogs over vada pav! No chance” and “Any normal being Indian or other would not choose a hot dog!” indicating the depth of the debate.

Despite the uproar, Chopra’s performance in ‘Heads of State’ has been largely praised. Co-starring with Hollywood actors Idris Elba and John Cena, the action-comedy film is currently available for streaming on Prime Video.

As the new season of our much beloved show inches closer (September 14th), here is a trip down the memory lane in the form of a Zodiac trivia for the aficionados of the badass witches in Coven.

These are generalized predictions for each zodiac sign. For a personalized horoscope analysis to consult our expert astrologers online now.

Fiona Goode (Aries): As the Supreme Witch of the Salem Descendants, the glamorous Fiona Goode is every bit the royalty that is her history which imparts a significant amount of fire to her already passionate persona. She is beautiful and intelligent, witty and forceful, has a yearning for being the alpha female, much like an Aries woman. She is kind and extremely ruthless at the same time, she is a unique combination of opposites and a dynamic force of paradoxes. Her desire for leadership is a sure-sign of an Arian woman. She detests stereotypes, much like the sign which is ubiquitously the first, literally and figuratively. Ideologically, her heart is in the right place as she abhors racism. Power and control are the two things she cherishes, and her ambitions are a cautionary tale of aggressiveness taken too far.

Myrtle Snow (Taurus): An honest and an eccentric witch, Myrtle Snow has a deep-seated love for high couture fashion that is more than visible when she screams out “Balenciaga” (while wearing Carolina Herrera, ironically), after the French fashion house while she is being burnt at the stake! This connoisseur of impeccable taste and beauty cannot be classified as anything but a Taurus. Taureans’ love for fashion and materialistic pleasures is widely known.

Stevie Nicks (Gemini): Enough said! As is proved by her birthdate (May 26, 1948), she easily slides into the category of Gemini. Despite her short height, her gargantuan status is proof of her magnetic powers of captivating people. Rumors have plagued Nicks throughout the years, alleging that she is a witch, partly due to her billowing shawls and bohemian tunics which was deftly and comically put to good use when she was cast as the White Witch (also an allude to her youthful personality), and revered as Misty Day’s favorite singer, paying homage to the reach and influence of her talent on the show.

Queenie (Cancer): She is able to transfer self-inflicted wounds and the pain associated with them to another person when pushed to the extreme even though she is calm and collected most of the times. These mood fluctuations earn her the honor of being a Cancerian. Despite her physical appearance that borders on obesity, she is not self-conscious at all even though she is at the receiving end of cruel jokes about her weight, and has cultivated a thick exterior (no pun intended!), much like her sign, Cancer. Her sassy and independent attitude makes for a tough disposition. She is very intelligent, but often feels isolated and different from the other witches that prompts her longing for a family and a desire for belonging; Crabs are known to crave the familial bonds of love.

Madison Montgomery (Leo): She is a focus of the paparazzi (due to her career in acting), and thrives on the limelight. This uncontrollable starlet is used to things going her way, and therefore is a perfect candidate for the position of a Leo. Her charisma is compounded by her striking beauty that nudges her towards vanity. She is extremely confident, self-centered and egotistical, embodying the essential characteristics of her sign, with traces of vulnerability. Vain and brassy, Madison is sharp-tongued and willful and her tendency to take jabs at people which seems like an innate talent. Narcissistic and sociopathic tendencies that don’t help in establishing a long-lasting friendship with her peers result in her being disliked but the self-centeredness of Leos prevents her from acknowledging it. Friendship means little to her in the grand scheme of things which is quite emblematic of Leos as her desire for success blinds her to everything else.

Marie Laveau (Virgo): This Virgo Voodoo Queen is the undisputed leader of the Coven’s most powerful rivals in witchcraft. She is revered by her patrons and is a local caregiver, quite symptomatic of Virgos. She is a force to be reckoned with, and steadfastly holds grudges longer than most and her revenge tactics are as violent as the violence ensued on her people. Based on a real character of a voodoo practitioner whose birthdate happens to be September 10, 1807, she is undoubtedly a Virgo.

Cordelia Fox (Libra): The reigning Supreme of the Coven, Cordelia is gentle and caring toward others, particularly her students. Her affinity for harmony and an encompassing love makes her a sound contender for a Libran. Despite her strenuous relationship with her mother, Cordelia is intelligent enough to conclude that the Coven cannot survive without her mother’s power, which adequately shows that she is a skilled problem solver in tough situations. Since Librans have a victorious mindset, she achieves success through her reliance on hard work. Her extreme loyalty and dedication to the students and the coven shows her partiality towards partnership and a common goal, like a dedicated Libran.

Kaylee (Scorpio): She is a Pyrokinetic witch that can be read as a tribute to the passionate flames of Scorpios. She is soft spoken and a rather hopeless romantic, and this sun sign is sometimes considered the most romantic of all the signs. She actively tries to resist her powers, wanting to keep them a secret, just like a Scorpio. Her refusal to accept refuge in the Academy, and insisting on a normal lifestyle is very much a sign of the stubbornness and decisive powers of a Scorpio.

Anna Leigh Leighton (Sagittarius): Her long reign is a testament to her likable character and agreeable nature. Like Sagittarians, she has a positive personality even after crossing sixty. She signs a truce with Marie Laveau and subsequently brings peace between the two groups for several decades, so her far-sightedness reminds one of a Sagittarius. Their philosophy of “live and let live” is aptly seen in this step of hers.

Zoe Benson (Capricorn): The quintessential girl-next-door, Zoe is tenaciously resilient which leads to a controlled behavior that helps her in being disciplined. This sounds a lot like the traits of a Capricorn. Zoe is a shy and reserved person and unlike her fellow witches, cannot remain cool under pressure and expects the worse, a weakness of this sign. Acting as a proxy leader in times of crises that is a sure sign of the managerial quality of Capricorns, she knows what’s best for the Academy.

Nan (Aquarius): Underestimated, she is the dark horse of the race. Her humanitarian side and her natural optimism for a world of possibilities lend her the qualities of an Aquarian. Her clairvoyance gives her an insight into people, aiding her ability to help people. She trusts her abilities implicitly and is reliant on them, fuelling her inquisitive side that might be responsible for her eavesdropping and her rejection of dullness, a weakness chiefly displayed by this sign.

Misty Day (Pisces): An earthy young woman, Misty Day was misunderstood due to her ability to bring souls back from the dead given her compassionate side, upholding the positive side of Pisceans. Since her resurrection from being burned at the stake, Misty spends her days wandering the swamps and listening to Stevie Nicks, giving wings to her imagination amidst nature. Much like Pisces, she likes the solitary arrangement with her faithful record player. Misty also seems to have a fear of abandonment given her empathy and sensitivity for life that forces her to crave human company, which is a negative trait of the Zodiac she seems to inhabit. She spends most of her time meditating, and like her sign, that could have led to her emotional intelligence.
