Treat your mum like a star!
Though several celestial bodies influence the maternal instinct and our urge to nurture - the Moon and Ceres, for example - your mother's Sun Sign reveals her essential identity, the way she expresses herself, her most basic drives, hopes and wishes. Look, then, to the Sun Sign of the maternal figures in your life and create the perfect Mother's Day!
Choose your mother's sign:
Aries
You may feel tempted to pamper your mum on Mother's Day or to give soothing, relaxing gifts like spa treatments or scented candles. But this Fire Sign mama's going to be bored silly by all that bubbly, flowery stuff! Your Aries mother possesses boundless get-up-and-go - and she loves a good dare. She actually finds conflict exciting, which would explain some of your tiffs while you were growing up. So don't bother indulging her senses or offering her escape. Instead, challenge her to a day of power-shopping or, if she's athletic, to an off-road bike ride. You'll be surprised by her energy!
Ideal Mother's Day Gift:
Your active Aries mother could really benefit from and appreciate a gym membership. Present her with a gift certificate and a bundle of tiger lilies, which, with their vibrant spray of colours and dots, are like the Aries of the flower world.
Taurus
Your affectionate and protective Taurus mum has always worked hard to provide for you and to protect you; she needs a day off, and a Mother's Day feast seems a pretty good excuse! Second to her love for her family is her love for rich, sumptuous food. A little sensory indulgence and your undivided attention should be enough to satisfy your mum's penchant for pleasure. Take your time, order coffee and desserts and, if she tries to beat you to the bill, insist that the date's on you.
Ideal Mother's Day Gift:
If you can get your hands on a bouquet of tropical hibiscus, your Taurus mum will simply love them. Their soft, billowy petals appeal to her tactile nature. She's also sentimental and will adore just about anything you give her - especially if it's attractively wrapped.
