With the new, fresh energy of Spring (and a Libra Full Moon) comes the dawn of Aries season. Known for their fiery, direct, and bold dispositions, Aries won’t demurely accept subpar gifts, and they will rock with you just a little bit more if you nail their birthday treats. Lucky for you, we’ve got a cheat sheet. Read on for fabulous and bright presents that will bolster the spirit of the Aries you love – and maybe a few that can soothe their passionate, high-energy tendencies, too
Cool Their Fire And Be A Birthday Hero
The best gift you can give your Aries is some good old-fashioned relaxation. If you can soothe their reactive tempers or talent for healthy confrontation, you’ll earn a spot in their big, loyal hearts. If they’ve yet to dabble in any relaxing substances, send them some CBD goodies from Dad Grass. Whether they’re more the Gummy, Joint, or Tincture type, the brand’s got something to make everyone just a little bit happier. For something that packs a bigger punch, send some Turkish Delight-inspired edibles from Rose Los Angeles, made in partnership with small farms and chefs, featuring local and seasonal ingredients.
Nail the wind-down toolkit with OSEA’s Vagus Nerve Trio, which will balance Aries’ heated instincts with ocean-inspired oils and a pillow mist designed with the nervous system in mind. Don’t stop at bathcare: upgrade their facial situation with a serotonin-boosting toner and mood-mellowing cleanser from CAP Beauty. Voila: your favorite Aries’ bathroom is now a spa.
Fire Up Their Vinyasa Flow
If you know an Aries, you know they’ve got a competitive, somewhat aggressive spirit (said with love). They’re compelled to have the most vigorous vinyasa in class – and the activewear wardrobe to match. Stoke their trademark fire with some vibrant, statement-making sets from Girlfriend Collective. Check out Splits59’s sleek collection for pieces your Aries can excel in, whether they’re nailing that one-handed chaturanga or their new half-marathon PR.
Gift them a pilates, yoga, or other movement membership to satisfy their overachieving tendencies. If they need an IRL community to fuel their fire, email a gift card from the very chic Silver Springs or L.A. Springs Pilates in LA; Sky Ting for your New Yorker; The Class for either coast. For the Aries who prefers to efficiently knock out their workout from home, gift a Sky Ting TV membership for the yogi, or a Melissa Wood Health membership for the pilates fanatic.
Acupressure And Dry Brushing For Their Self-Soothing Toolkit
While they might not be inclined to treat themselves to extraneous skincare or self-care purchases, an Aries is bound to geek out over a new tool that promises to elevate their routine. Trick them into slowing down and balancing their fire with some rest and relaxation, and this go-getting Fire sign will thank and love you forever. (You’ll surely benefit from their newfound serenity, too.) Slow their roll with the Acupressure Set from WTHN, for a gift that will give them a true glow from the inside out – on the daily. Send them OSEA’s Total Body Glow Trio to give the gift of a healthy lymphatic routine; add on a Rose Quartz Gua Sha to enhance the ritual. Finally, you can take credit for both their gorgeous complexion and mellow mood.
The Doctor Is In (You Are The Doctor): Formulate The Perfect Herbal Arsenal
We’ve already established that most Aries love optimization and efficiency. Why not upgrade their daily mood and productivity with some herbal helpers? For an Aries who’s into science-based, quick, and easy optimizations, look no further than Cymbiotika. The Magnesium L-Threonate and Golden Mind formulas – both of which work to boost brain power and cognitive function while calming the nervous system – deliver instant efficacy with liposomal delivery (translation: the vitamins are encapsulated in fatty membranes, making them more bioavailable). And it’s just another bonus that they taste like candy.
If your Aries needs a life outlook or mood adjustment after the Libra full moon – which may have cast some of their close relationships under the microscope in a new light – pick out the perfect floral formula from Alexis Smart Flower Remedies. While a “flower remedy” might seem like a light and subtle medicine, these little blue bottles are anything but. Your Aries will feel the difference from this homeopathic gift.
For the Aries whose frenetic energy doesn’t do well with coffee – but who’s still in need of a little caffeine, because we’re all human – gift Wooden Spoon Herbs’ delicious Morning Matcha Gift Set, complete with Mushroom Vanilla Maple Matcha Satchets (don’t even try to say that two times fast) and a limited edition porcelain Matcha Bowl. While you’re at it, send them Elix Healing’s Digestif tincture ($36), ideal for harmonizing an Aries’ appetite for life and predilection for spicy and exciting foods.
Keep It Spicy
Now that we’ve settled our score with calming skincare and herbal antidotes that an Aries wouldn’t buy on their own, let’s bring the heat. Send them all things spicy and flavor-bombed, from Fly By Jing’s collab with Fishwife to Jacobsen Salt Co.’s exciting array of infused salts. Is it just me or do Aries love mustard? Gift them the finest from Maille, if you know them well enough to make it not that bizarre to send them dijon for their birthday.
And we would both be remiss to forget something sweet. Tack on Spring & Mulberry’s Spice Market bundle ($36), featuring intoxicating date-sweetened chocolate bars studded with beautiful pieces of Mango, Urfa Chile, and Pecans. Let’s keep it rolling with chocolate: Simply’s chocolate & date bars will sweeten their coming year, and Ghia’s dangerously addictive crunchy hazelnut spread is the equivalent of gifting a one-way ticket to heaven. It’s official, you’re the best!
Bold Styles For A Bold Sign
No Aries – or any sign, let’s be real – will turn down a glittery gift. Isn’t it amazing that the predominant birthstone of this season is a diamond? You might want to splurge a little. Don’t shoot the messenger! Shop Kinn’s stunning collection of Tennis Bracelets to spoil the Aries you adore, or pick out one of Kimai’s unique Salazar Tennis Bracelets, adorned with asymmetrical diamonds and a customizable cord.
If your Aries cares more about their shoe closet than their jewelry box, send a pair of timeless loafers from Freda Salvador they’ll wear on repeat for years to come, or gorgeous (and comfortable) flats from M. Gemi that’ll go the distance, whether they’re working, playing, or escaping in a flight of passion.
Get to gifting – and we’ll meet you back here next month to talk all things Taurean.
