When it comes to getting to know people, we have different ways of expressing our personalities. Whether it's through our hobbies, the ways we connect with others, or how we present ourselves, we find avenues to tell others who we are. One of the most telling ways, however, is the way someone decorates and keeps their home. Whether you lean towards a certain style, or you keep things organized, or you have particular rooms you're drawn to more than others, how your home looks says a lot about you!

Speaking of personalities, we know that zodiac signs also tend to say quite a bit about your personality. Your sign can have more of an influence over your tastes more than you realize, and we bet we can tell you what your house looks like right now based on your zodiac.

Aquarius (January 20 to February 18)

Your place is chaotic and messy, and relatively bare-boned. You have the necessities, but they are things you’ve acquired from friends and family, or the local thrift store. You don’t care too much if everything looks cohesive, but prefer your home to be an authentic reflection of yourself. You have an entire bookshelf of theory and psychology books in plain sight because you want an excuse to talk about them.

Pisces (February 19 to March 20)

You strive for your place to be a sanctuary from the outside world. You’ve incorporated light colors, particularly shades of blue, to make the area feel serene. You have throw pillows and unique seating options everywhere, to make room for guests as well as to give you plenty of options of where you can relax. Rooms have no specific preference on what they’re for because you tend to move freely without stressing too much. There are signs of constant tasks that were stopped and started again in every room. 

Aries (March 21 to April 19)

Your home is pretty low maintenance, given your desire to exert your energy elsewhere. You still like to stay on top of things, so you have up-to-date appliances and contemporary style furniture. You want to keep plenty of space available for whatever you choose to do on any given day, so you keep things arranged to accommodate. Depending on what’s happening in your life, everything is clean and put away. You have activities strewn about to keep you occupied. Still, you have one particular room/area of the house where you can keep yourself engaged and active.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)

You have decadent items everywhere. Your throws and home decor are plush and tailored to your higher-end taste. You lean towards colors that connect you to your earth element, but with touches of feminine energy. You prioritize comfort and beauty, so every room in your home has a comfortable place to relax that is striking in its appearance: from your large bed to your comfy couch to your sleek bathtub. 

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

Given your penchant for communication, we know that connection is everywhere in your home. Whether it’s wifi, a voice-activated smart home device, computers, or a smart television, you want access to everything regardless of where you are. You keep an open concept layout, particularly in the living room, to not feel restricted. You don’t have specific themes for your rooms, but they all hold conglomerations of all your interests. You want your rooms to appear more prominent, so you incorporate bright colors, or even white, in most of your home to give the appearance of a larger space. 

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)

Your home is representative of comfort, unity, and relaxation. You prefer soft colors to bring peace of mind to yourself and your guests. You have pictures on the walls of loved ones, perhaps even a specific photo wall. Your kitchen is your pride and joy, though, given it’s in a constant state of use. You allow plenty of light in, and you keep your kitchen items on display. You’re invested in really gorgeous pieces that you want to show off. You can let things get a little messy at times, but it’s just a reminder that a home is meant to be lived in.

Leo (July 23 to August 22)

We already know that you’re a maximalist, Leo. Patterns and colors are not exclusive here. You aren’t afraid to experiment with bright and colorful furniture paired with a bold rug or wall furnishings. Your home screams for attention, but it isn’t haphazardly thrown together. There is a method to the madness. You have a floor-length mirror placed in a random room in your home to make it feel larger. You keep everything in an excellent state out of a sense of pride for yourself

Virgo (August 23 to September 22)

Everything has a place, and everything is in its place. It’s organized and tidy, with plenty of plants and small side projects to keep you occupied. You won’t find any chaos, though, because once you start something, you always finish it. You go out of your way to find natural (or natural-looking) materials for your furnishings. Whether it’s wooden tables and chairs, or bamboo baskets to hold your stuff, you want things in place that also ground you in nature. 

Libra (September 23 to October 22)

You have aesthetic, modern furniture with touches of elegance. You like everything to come together cohesively—neutral colors with touches of pastel, matching furniture sets, and plenty of space to not feel restricted. Everything is probably in slight disarray, but you rarely let messes get too out of hand. You want to be prepared in case others decide to stop in.

Scorpio (October 23 to November 21)

You have classic, even gothic touches if you can get your hands on them. You aren’t totally isolated, but you have one area of the house that is your personal space. You create a sacred oasis for you to recharge, but you don’t spare luxury when it comes to yourself. A giant velvet headboard or a tall, detailed armchair exists somewhere in your home; Something that is unique but also only for you. 

Sagittarius (November 22 to December 21)

You’ve got a whimsical state of mind happening everywhere. You have easy to manage decor that can be swapped out, but you usually keep a few pieces front and center that reflect your interests. Rarely is anything organized, but not because you don’t care. You just feel there are more important things than having every aspect in order. If you can spend time planning your next trip or reading your favorite philosophy book, why wouldn’t you?

Capricorn (December 22 to January 19)

Calendars and schedules everywhere, full of to-dos. You like to keep things simple and classic. You have a modern style couch, sleek and sophisticated accents, and plenty of storage space to keep non-essentials out of the way. You have a room or space dedicated solely to your work projects, and it’s the most organized area in your home. You aren’t stressed about everything being spotless, but you do like things to be in order and presentable.
