There are so many Christmas movies that it is almost impossible to figure out which one to watch during the holiday season. This comprehensive list will help you figure out which movie will fill you with the holiday spirit. Don’t forget to check your moon and rising signs!
Aries – A Christmas Story
Not many people may realize this, but Aries are sanguine softies who only lose their cool when mercilessly provoked. That’s why Ralphie, a boy who dreams of protecting his family with a BB gun and then beats up a cruel bully will resonate so well with them.
Taurus – The Holiday
Taurus is ruled by Venus, so naturally, they are paired up with one of the most romantic movies on the list. The earth sign will fall in love with the cozy aesthetic and the tender dialogue. They will also appreciate the empowering message of self-worth.
Gemini – The Santa Clause
Kind-hearted Geminis will sympathize with this film’s main character, Scott Calvin. Scott mirrors the air sign’s dualistic nature when he is forced to assume the role of Santa while simultaneously fulfilling his role as a father.
Cancer – It’s A Wonderful Life
George Bailey’s compassion will appeal to Cancer’s heightened sense of empathy. This film about a man’s unshakeable devotion to his family and community will fill the moon children with the Christmas Spirit.
Leo – White Christmas
This Christmas classic about romance and showbiz is perfect for our theatrical lion. The rousing musical numbers, fantastic costumes, and breathtaking set design will have all of the Leos dreaming of a White Christmas.
Virgo – Miracle On 34th Street
Yes Virgo, there is a Santa Claus! This heartwarming tale of Kris Kringle convincing a no-nonsense woman and her precocious daughter to believe in Santa will speak to the logical and pragmatic Virgo.
Libra – The Happiest Season
Like Taurus, Libra is also ruled by the planet of romance and adoration, so it only makes sense to pair them with another holiday romance. Libras will instantly empathize with the main characters’ plight of trying to maintain familial peace.
Scorpio – The Nightmare Before Christmas
Never make a Scorpio choose between Halloween and Christmas. Underneath their broody exterior lies a child-like wonderment that revels in the joy that the holiday season brings. Enjoy this holiday classic, but please don’t kidnap the Sandy Claws!
Sagittarius – Home Alone
Kevin McCallister must be a Sagittarius with his ambition, innovation, and his remarkable ability to intimidate the Wet Bandits. The mutable fire sign will enjoy the film’s fun hijinks, but they will also appreciate how the film touches on the importance of family and togetherness.
Capricorn – Scrooged
Capricorns will love to hate the film’s self-important yet charismatic protagonist, Frank Cross. They will simultaneously applaud Frank’s business sense while cheering on his emotional growth throughout the movie.
Aquarius – How The Grinch Stole Christmas
Aquarians will love this movie because they can identify with the film’s non-conforming titular character. They will also appreciate the importance the movie places on goodwill and charity over commercialism and materialism.
Pisces – A Muppet Christmas Carol
This movie will appeal to Pisces’ sentimental nature and love for nostalgia. They will giggle at Gonzo and Rizzo’s antics. And they will cry happy tears as they watch Ebenezer’s transformation from a miserly old coot to an empathetic philanthropist.
Ophiuchus – Die Hard
Have you ever heard of the 13th zodiac sign? If not, don’t worry about it. But if so, just know that Ophiuchus should watch Die Hard because they are not a real sign and Die Hard is not a real Christmas movie! [Editor’s note: And she’s willing to die on this hill.]
I hope you enjoy these wonderful holiday classics and have a magical holiday season!
