A lot of us check our horoscope daily, and most of us know our astrological sign. Have you ever thought about your sign and how it relates to your feet? Interestingly, there are quite a few connections between the body, your level of fitness and activity, and your sign, so you might want some hints on shoes and foot care for the year. Get inspired, and then get shopping!
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)
You tend to overheat and do things with gusto– it’s best if you invest in sandals instead of super-heavy heels. If you live in a colder climate, buy peep-toed or open-toed heels instead of full-on pumps.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)
You are sensual, and you love good things. Invest in a pair of sexy shoes with a higher-than-normal price tag, because they suit your sign perfectly. You take good care of your things, so your shoes will last a long, long time. Talk about cost-per-wear!
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
You are very spontaneous, Gemini. Since you like to change your plans and flit from place to place, it’s imperative that you find shoes that support your feet from day to late at night. Who knows where you’ll be whisked when the work day is done?
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You have an extremely sensual nature, so why not express that with your taste in footwear? Instead of simple pumps, find a pair with a bow on top, and instead of plain flip flops, get a pair with mother-of-pearl.
Leo (July 23 – Aug 22)
Your spine or your back is at stake, dear Leo, so pick shoes that are more practical. Instead of skyscraper heels, try out wedges or platforms that decrease the amount of pressure put on your back. Vanity, as they say, is a great motivator for Leo, so you will love shoes that complement your skin tone. Try coral and nude shoes to start.
Virgo (Aug 23 – Sept 22)
As a Virgo, you have great endurance, so that means you can pull off fancier shoe styles than some of the other signs. You’ll feel great because of your healthy diet and your high metabolism, so pick shoes than complement your lovely physique. Sling-back heels will make the most of your great calves.
Libra (Sept 23 – Oct 22)
Let’s face it: you love to party! Since you’re very social and have a love of quality, stilettos in buttery leather are a great pick. If you live in a colder climate, select knee or even thigh-high boots with saucy additions like ties, buckles, and studs.
Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)
You are affected by your powerful emotions. Because you are a sign that loves to be loved, get a pair of shoes in a vibrant color like red or fuchsia… and don’t just wear them on date night.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Did you know that there are more Sagittarian Olympians than any other sign? Since you rock at fast-paced activities and you have natural confidence, you should look for active-style heels with sporty elements for work, and all-terrain shoes for downtime.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
As a Capricorn, you probably enjoy leisurely activities like hiking and walking. Since you can get lost in your work very easily, you should try to find no-nonsense heels with stacked heels or padded insoles to ease any weariness. You should also invest in a pair of active-style shoes for the weekend.
Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
You are a social sign, and that means you won’t be caught hanging out in front of the computer for long. Since you love socializing and hanging out with new groups of people, make sure your footwear complements that. Fun, flirty, and comfortable is just the ticket.
Pisces (Feb 19 – March 20)
Dear Pisces, you have foot problems! Did you know that your feet are the weakest part of your body? If you need to buy shoes this year, make sure that they received favorable reviews for fit, quality, and support, especially if you have an active job.
Do you read your horoscope, and are you willing to try out these tricks?
