Deep diving into your astrological chart has many benefits. Elevating your makeup routine, weeding out annoying men on Hinge, and now, figuring out how to make your home your happy place once and for all. Thanks to TikTok, word has spread that using your moon sign as a reference point for your home decor could be a universally flattering experience.
Why follow the moon? According to the good people at Co-Star, your moon (determined by where the moon was positioned at the exact moment you were born, so go ahead and text your mom now) “rules your emotions, moods, and feelings. This is likely the sign you must think of yourself as since it reflects your personality when you’re alone and deeply comfortable.” Yep, alone and comfortable are the exact vibes I want to be at the end of a long day.
But you obvs don’t want to have a middle schooler’s solar system hanging in your living room, right? So, how do we accomplish this mystical mission… Well, I was today years old when I learned that astrologers have agreed upon a specific color story for each sign. With that in mind, here’s how to decorate based on your moon sign for diehard Zodiac lovers and, frankly, anyone who needs some inspo.

How To Decorate Your Apartment Based On Your Moon Sign
Aquarius
Aquarius is the sign of the water bearer, so naturally, this aesthetic is waterfall-friendly, with an emphasis on colors like blue, grey, and green. FWIW, Aquarius is still an air sign, so try keeping your style modern and minimalist, just like your distant relationship with your emotions (hehe).
Pisces
As a water sign, a Pisces is deeply emotional and sensitive, so you’re going to need your space to be as comforting, snuggly, and calming as possible. And, as it would turn out, your safe space is the ocean! So ofc, the best colors for these little fishies are deep blue and seafoam from under the sea.
Taurus
An earthy green is the complementary color for the bull who can’t take no for an answer. Since Tauruses are fearless and resilient AF, a bunch of big, bold statement pieces (maybe in gold to contrast the green) are a must.
Aries
If you’re an Aries, you’re probably a firey individual, and I’m definitely afraid of you. In this case, fighting fire with fire is perfectly acceptable since red is the color to soothe your soul. But since Aries are also known to be carefree, for sure mix in some cooler reds, oranges, or other tones to keep your firey nature balanced.
Gemini
Speaking of individuals I’m definitely afraid of, enter my favorite two-faced icons. Geminis are all about duality, so symmetry and sets of two are your look, Connie baby. The official colors of the twin sign are bright yellow and white, but I don’t think I have to advise y’all to go above and beyond to keep things interesting.
Cancer
Cancers are more than crabs; they’re also the official moon children of the Zodiac, which is perfect for this lunar exercise. Bring the silvery white of the moon’s glow into your home with white candles, while keeping things romantic and soft with light pink tones and enough throw pillows and blankets to build your inner child fort they’ve been crying for.
Leo
As the royalty of the jungle and #1 superstar in your own heart, you need gold, gold, and more gold to remind yourself what a winner you are. As a Leo, you’re confident in stealing the show, so maximalism is your friend.
Virgo
Oh, my Virgos, I know you’ve been meticulously planning an apartment rebrand with intentionally chosen, personally meaningful pieces for about a year now. Just in case I reached you in time to add a few suggestions, lean into silver metals and a subtle, organic blue (with a green or brown undertone).
Libra
As lovers of balance and harmony, you’ll enjoy a space where various unique elements are blended together. Take your time to mix textures, architectural styles, and furniture all in one place. P.S. your color is pink, so maybe get a little Wicked by harmonizing with some green.
Scorpio
The Scorpion’s go-to color is black, but like an inky, mysterious, sexy black, elevated by shiny, metallic, and slinky materials other signs wouldn’t be up for the challenge of nailing. Every good Scorpio knows spite is a favorite motivator, but keep your space a tiny bit sweet with pale greys or purples as an accent color.
Sagittarius
Since Sags are so footloose and fancy-free in the world, whimsical energy at home should be balanced with serious structure. The Archer screams all things wood, handmade, woven. As a fellow fire sign, color-wise, more orange is par for the course, but astrological experts also encourage a sprinkle of purple.
Capricorn
Don’t let the allegations of being cold stand, Capricorns! Your home should include a plethora of shades of brown (like the mountain your goat mascot likes to frolic on), which is actually very warm. As an ambitious over-achiever, a few complex art pieces versus an overwhelming shelf of tchotchkes is going to be your move.
