Star signs are like ghosts, you either believe in them or you don’t. Not only are we believers in the supernatural here, but we also love reading about what our future might hold. A horoscope can describe your whole personality in just a few short sentences and learning more about your traits should never be seen as a bad thing, in our opinion. So, where do star signs come from? Well, in astrology, a sign of the zodiac refers to one of 12 specific constellations of the zodiac that the sun passes through. A person’s own sign of the zodiac is the one that the sun was in when they were born.
In this EZ Living Furniture blog, we have decided to shine a light on mirrors. A mirror is the one home accessory that can reveal to you your true self and coincidently, so can star signs. The 12 signs are broken up into particular months and dates, for your convenience, we have listed them all below, starting with this month’s sign. Each month will have a stylish mirror attached to it that accurately represents your character.
Sagittarius - 23rd November - 21st December
Capricorn - 22nd December - 20th January
Aquarius - 20th January - 18th February
Pisces - 20th February - 20th March
Taurus - 21st April - 21st May
Cancer - 22nd June - 22nd July
Virgo - 23rd August - 23rd September
Libra - 24th September - 23rd October
Scorpio - 24th October - 22nd November
Sagittarius (23rd November - 21st December)
Element: Fire
Symbol: Archer
First things first, happy birthday month to those of you who fall under the Sagittarius sign. This zodiac sign is one of the freest and most adventurous of them all. They enjoy travelling and are full of passion. These rule-breakers resist orders, regulations, and schedules. They just like flying by the seat of their pants sometimes. If you want an honest opinion, a Sagittarius will give it to you, but be warned, they won’t spare your feelings. This sign is more a thinker than a feeler which is why they find it hard to show empathy. The best mirror style for a Sagittarius is our Mimi Mirror. Boasting a striking gold metal frame, it will suit a variety of colour schemes, meaning it will look fabulous in a living room but could also work extremely well in the bedroom. Because of its versatility, it can also easily lend itself to a number of locations, perfect for that travel-hungry Sagittarius in your life.
Capricorn (22nd December - 20th January)
Element: Earth
Symbol: Goat
Capricorns are ambitious, determined, materialistic and strong. They are the hardest workers of all the star signs and because of this and their ambitious nature, they are trailblazers in the professional world. Fearless and resilient, they make great partners in life, as well as friends. Capricorns will go out of their way to consider the needs of their closest companions, even if they have a lot going on (which inevitably, they do). They will prioritise their time accordingly and will come up with a realistic solution to a friend's problem. Because a Capricorn is always rushing from one place to the next, it stands to reason that the best mirror for them is something small and practical. The Luri Black Table Mirror is functional and can be moved around if needed, which is why it is so suitable for a Capricorn’s life.
Aquarius (20th January - 18th February)
Element: Air
Symbol: Water-bearer
Aquarians are very upfront and intelligent individuals. They want to save the world and actually have the smarts to be able to do so. They may come across as uncaring because they don’t sweat the small stuff and can’t empathise with those who do. They do accept other’s people’s opinions, but only when it is backed up by facts and statistics. Aquarians live primarily in their own bubble. This can come across as shy to many but once you get to know an Aquarius and engage in thought-provoking conversations with them, that’s when they really open up. This star sign is extremely caring and will do just about anything to help those around them. They are nature lovers and sustainability is very important to them. Therefore, we have chosen the Ellipse Fumed Oak Mirror for an Aquarius as an ode to their love of nature. This mirror has a fumed oak finish and could be positioned next to a window to reflect the outdoors indoors, perfect for this particular star sign.
Pisces (20th February - 20th March)
Element: Water
Symbol: Fish
Pisceans’ symbol is two fish facing opposite directions which perfectly reflects their continual inner struggle. On one hand, they want to be successful, busy, driven, and active, but on the other hand, they just want to stay in bed and pull the covers over their head. Pisces’ are drawn to self-expression, which is why they often follow creative career paths such as a writer, artist, graphic designer, singer, songwriter, or a variation of these. They are imaginative, so much so that they are often prone to daydreaming because this can help them to avoid reality. A Pisces is a good friend and an even better personal therapist because they are incredibly empathetic. They just “get” how you feel, never judge, and listen endlessly. The only problem with a Pisces is that they are “too” emotional and compassionate. If a friend is upset and confides in them, a Pisces will often end up crying more than the friend with the problem. Always tears with a Pisces. But it’s not all bad, to represent their creative side, we have chosen the Inez Mirror for this star sign. The unusual shape makes this an art piece as well as a functional mirror.
Aries (21st March - 20th April)
Element: Fire
Symbol: The Ram
We’re going to be wholeheartedly honest about this star sign, an Aries can be quite needy. They demand your total attention and loyalty. They can get bored really fast, which is why they also expect you, as their friend, partner, or family member, to entertain them. It’s not all bad though, an Aries is very warm and passionate. They have a big presence that can light up a room and they’re lovely to be around because they genuinely care about other people. Ask them a question and they will tell you everything you need to know, and we mean everything. Their high energy is coupled with a competitive nature, so don’t try and “up one” on this individual with regard to home decor, or anything really, because you will most likely end up on the losing end. The perfect mirror for an Aries is our Tamara Mirror, because this too, will demand your attention just like an Aries.
Taurus (21st April - 21st May)
Element: Earth
Symbol: The Bull
Taureans are extremely driven and have an intellectual and analytical nature. This can mean that they are often misunderstood and seen as laid-back, lazy, and stubborn. This is untrue though. A Taurus likes to think deeply on all matters. They deconstruct situations carefully, pull them apart in order to understand things fully, and this takes a while (hence them seeming lazy). Once they arrive at their own conclusion, you can rest assured that it has been thoroughly investigated and is rock solid. Taureans don’t like sudden changes because they are such deep thinkers, they want to be given the time to think the change through first. The Averill Mirror is the best choice for a Taurus because its large size and straight rectangular shape are dependable. This no-frills star sign just wants a practical mirror that can give them all of the functionalities that come with a mirror i.e. reflecting light and making a room feel bigger.
Gemini (22nd May - 21st June)
Element: Air
Symbol: Twins
Gemini’s have big personalities. They like variety, keeping their options open, and having lots of opportunities on the go at once. They also like being “in the know” about everything and everyone. So, if it’s gossip you’re after, the best person to go to for this would be a Gemini. This star sign is not considered emotional in the slightest, in fact, when someone shows emotion around them, they are already planning their hasty exit. Still, they’re not all bad, a Gemini is incredibly open-minded and can adapt to multiple people and environments. Because of their willingness to say “yes” to every opportunity, they can often become overwhelmed and are unable to finish all of the tasks at hand. Have you ever heard of the phrase “Jack of all trades, master of none”? That’s a Gemini. You won’t often find this star sign scanning the aisles of a furniture store, but when you do, they are on the lookout for something extremely adaptable for their varied lifestyles. Therefore, we have chosen the Riesco Green Marble Table Mirror for them. This can be simply picked up and moved from room to room or place to place.
Cancer (22nd June - 22nd July)
Element: Water
Symbol: Crab
It is well known that the symbol for the Cancer star sign is a crab. They might have been assigned this particular creature because of their mood. Quite frankly, it can change in an instant. A crab’s 10 legs could even reflect the number of personalities a Cancer has. You might often wonder how many people really live inside of a Cancer. Still, it’s not all bad, because you will also get 10 ride-or-die friends or partners in one. These intense individuals are similar to a Pisces in that they are extremely empathetic. Although sometimes intense, a Cancer is loyal, charming, and charismatic when its mood is up. Because a Cancer can change their mind in an instant, we have chosen a mirror with a timeless design for them, the Hyde Black Arch Panel Mirror to be exact.
Leo (23rd July - 22nd August)
Element: Fire
Symbol: Lion
Leos love being the centre of attention, but as a friend or partner to them, you’ll be happy to allow this because they are charming, warm, and generally great company. A Leo loves to perform, talk, be admired, and receive the praise and respect of others. So, it’s no surprise that Leos would make great actors. The one thing that a Leo cannot stand though, is being ignored. They command respect from others and assume a boss-type role in every relationship they have. These confident, bright, and naturally regal individuals are fun to have around. They are funny and welcoming, and having fun is very important to them. Like their symbol - a lion, they are also extremely protective of their own. This is sweet at first, but sometimes it can become overbearing and can come across as jealous, controlling, and possessive. The Square Scooped Edge Panelled Mirror has a gold finish, perfect for that spotlight-stealing Leo.
Virgo (23rd August - 23rd September)
Element: Earth
Symbol: Young Maiden
Virgos are detail-oriented people. They strive for perfection and have exceptionally high standards for themselves and those around them. Organising is the most important thing to a Virgo which is why their homes will always appear immaculate. If for some strange reason, a room in their home appears unkempt, they will obsess about it, often ignoring other tasks until this room has been tidied. Because Virgos are so hard working and reliable, they expect everyone else to be, and this is their main downfall because they become highly critical of others. Still, a Virgo is a true friend and is the most caring of all the star signs. They make good nurses, caregivers, and parents. They have an amazing ability to ignore their own needs when it means caring for someone else because they have huge hearts. The Palladian Mirror is the most perfect of all mirrors which is why it is most suitable for a Virgo.
Libra (24th September - 23rd October)
Element: Air
Symbol: Scales
Libras are, above all else, social butterflies. They enjoy mingling and chatting with different types of people. They are pleasing and diplomatic and tend to fit in wherever they go. Shape-shifting is like a sport to a Libra. You will often find them lounging around and flirting with people because, similar to a Leo, they love being centre-stage. A Libra loves to take an objective viewpoint and will analyse, ponder, and dissect things to find the fairest solution to a problem. They enjoy learning new information and crave mental stimulation. Balance and fairness are very important to a Libra, so their symbol, a scale, is an accurate representation of their personality. Libras also tend to gravitate towards beautiful things. They are unlikely to welcome anything into their home that isn’t exceptionally attractive. This includes furniture, home accessories, and even people. The best mirror for a Libra is, of course, the Kona Mirror. This statement piece would bring a touch of glamour to a Libra’s interior.
Scorpio(24th October - 22nd November)
Element: Water
Symbol: Scorpion
Scorpios have intensity and charisma like no other. They can easily command a room but still manage to remain anonymous to others. It’s an impressive skill! They keep themselves and their private lives fiercely guarded. A Scorpio likes danger, challenges, extremes, and darkness, so even though they might not share a lot with their partners, family, and friends, you can be sure that there is something juicy going on underneath their cover. Scorpios are relentless and will stop at nothing if what they are fighting for has a positive and meaningful purpose. They don’t crave anyone else’s approval and will create their own, usually unorthodox, path. A Scorpio’s symbol is a scorpion and this perfectly reflects their character. Word to the wise, do not mess with a Scorpio. If they feel threatened, they are likely to attack, and the sting from their tale can be fatal. The Galentini Mirror perfectly express a Scorpio’s power and untamed nature with its unusual yet striking design.
