As the holiday season approaches, finding the perfect Christmas movie to match your vibe can make the season even more magical. But how do you pick the right movie?
According to one expert, you can use astrology as your guide, with each zodiac sign’s unique energy suited to a specific type of festive film. Whether you’re drawn to classic feel-goods, whimsical rom-coms, or heartfelt dramas, there’s a holiday movie for everyone.
To mark the holiday season, cultural expert Andy Halliday from City of Doncaster News shares his insights on how connecting with movies that reflect your personality traits can deepen the joy of watching them.
“Movies have a unique way of resonating with who we are, and when they mirror our own traits, they help us relax, reflect, and feel understood,” Halliday explains. “Matching a Christmas movie with your zodiac sign can create a personal holiday ritual that you can turn to year after year.”
Halliday shares his guide to the best holiday movie for each zodiac sign, designed to help you unwind and embrace the spirit of the season.
Aries – Home Alone
Fiery and fearless, Aries loves a movie with action and plenty of laughs, making Home Alone the perfect pick. The antics of young Kevin McCallister, running around his town and terrorizing burglars, tap into the adventurous and resourceful spirit of the typical Aries personality.
“Aries is all about energy and humor, and Home Alone delivers both in spades,” Halliday notes. “It’s a feel-good film with just the right balance of excitement and festive spirit, a surefire way to lift an Aries’ holiday spirit.”
Taurus – The Holiday
Known for their love of comfort and romance, Taurus will feel right at home watching The Holiday. The film’s cozy cottages, charming romances, and scenic countryside speak to Taurus’ appreciation for luxury, heartfelt connection and comfort.
“Those who embrace their Taurus nature love a story they can relax into, with plenty of warmth and romance,” Halliday says. “This film’s aesthetic and emotional journey aligns perfectly with the Taurus vibe.”
Gemini – Elf
Geminis have playful personalities and have an appreciation for a comedy actor like Will Ferrell taking the screen in one of his crazy characters. That’s why this star sign might appreciate the humor and whimsy of Elf more than other signs.
Elf’s lighthearted charm and infectious enthusiasm are a great match for Gemini’s social, curious nature. “For Gemini, it’s all about lightness and laughter,” Halliday explains. “Watching Elf is like sharing a joyful holiday moment with friends, perfect for their sociable spirit.”
Cancer – It’s a Wonderful Life
Cancers, with their sentimental and nostalgic natures, will be moved by the classic tale of It’s a Wonderful Life. As water signs, Cancers love a good, healing cry and this movie is sure to bring out the water works every time.
The heartwarming story of a man who has lost his way and has to find it again by realizing his impact on others touches on family values, resilience, and the beauty of a close-knit community.
“Cancers will connect with this story’s depth and warmth,” says Halliday. “It’s a reminder of the season’s true spirit, and it resonates deeply with their emotional side.”
Leo – The Grinch (2018)
Leos love a splash of drama, which is why the bold and colorful world of The Grinch suits them perfectly. The 2018 animated version brings humor, flair, and a heartwarming twist to the classic tale, ideal for Leo’s big-hearted and theatrical personality.
“Leos appreciate the Grinch’s journey and transformation,” Halliday comments. “It’s full of laughter and a powerful reminder of kindness, which aligns beautifully with Leo’s generous spirit.”
Virgo – Love Actually
With a discerning eye and appreciation for detail, Virgos will enjoy the interwoven love stories and heartfelt moments of Love Actually. This film’s structured yet romantic narrative aligns with Virgo’s analytical but deeply caring nature.
“Virgos will enjoy the film’s complexity and the touching way it highlights love in all forms,” Halliday explains. “It’s the perfect combination of order and emotion.”
Libra – The Holiday Calendar
Libras, who value harmony and aesthetics, will enjoy the beautiful visuals and charming romance in The Holiday Calendar. Although this is a lesser-known film compared to the others on this list, the story’s focus on friendship, love, and fate resonates well with Libra’s idealistic and sociable nature.
“Libras will love the film’s warmth and the idea of destiny, which mirrors their romantic sensibilities,” says Halliday. “It’s light, fun, and full of holiday charm.”
Scorpio – Edward Scissorhands
Scorpios, known for their intense and introspective nature, will be drawn to the magical yet somber world of Edward Scissorhands. Though the debate is still ongoing over whether Tim Burtons’ classic movie counts as a Christmas movie, its blend of fantasy and drama with a taste of spooky appeals to Scorpio’s depth and fascination with the unusual.
“Scorpios will appreciate the film’s darker, unique take on love and loneliness,” Halliday notes. “It’s a Christmas tale for those who see beyond the surface.” They can also watch this film during scorpio season as well as Christmas season because it doubles as a Halloween and Christmas film.
Sagittarius – Four Christmases
Sagittarius loves a good laugh and an unconventional storyline, making Four Christmases a great pick. This quirky holiday comedy about embracing chaos is a perfect fit for Sagittarius’ adventurous spirit.
“Sagittarians enjoy unpredictability and humor, and this movie delivers both,” says Halliday. “It’s a hilarious reminder to roll with life’s twists and turns.”
Capricorn – Miracle on 34th Street
Capricorns, with their appreciation for tradition and heartfelt stories, will enjoy the classic Miracle on 34th Street. This film’s themes of belief and perseverance resonate well with Capricorn’s determined and idealistic traits.
“Capricorns will appreciate the enduring values and timeless charm of this movie,” Halliday comments. “It speaks to their faith in hard work and miracles.”
Aquarius – Klaus
Aquarius personalities, with their unique perspective and appreciation for innovation, will love the creative animation and fresh storyline of Klaus. The film’s message about kindness and community aligns with Aquarius’ humanitarian spirit.
“Aquarius thrives on originality, and Klaus offers a refreshingly different holiday story,” Halliday explains. “It’s a reminder of the power of kindness—a core value for Aquarius.”
Pisces – The Polar Express
Pisces, known for their imaginative and dreamy nature, will be captivated by The Polar Express. This magical tale about faith and wonder is perfect for Pisces’ sensitive, mystical side. Sometimes it’s important to just sit down and fall back into the magic of being a child again and The Polar Express is one of the best films to do this with.
“Pisces will feel transported by this film,” Halliday says. “It’s a beautifully animated journey that speaks to their childlike wonder and appreciation for the fantastical.”
Andy Halliday, CEO of City of Doncaster News, comments:
“Watching a holiday movie tailored to your zodiac sign can offer more than just entertainment. Matching your energy to a movie can be incredibly relaxing as it’s a chance to see parts of yourself reflected on screen, which helps reduce holiday stress and brings a sense of comfort.”
“Whether you’re a spirited Aries or a dreamy Pisces, there’s a Christmas movie waiting to make your holiday season even more magical. Embrace the joy of unwinding with a film that feels tailor-made for you and let the holiday spirit shine bright”.
