Treat your mum like a star!

Sagittarius
To honour your Sagittarian mum this Mother's Day, nothing beats a weekend getaway. If you've got the time and the resources, go for a long drive or on an antiques run through small towns that are off the beaten track. The time you can spend together exploring the world around you will show your adventurous Sag mum that you really appreciate her energy and courage. If you don't get a chance to travel, arrange a lively get-together with family and some of your mum's many friends. She'll jump at the chance to mingle and flirt with the crowd, showing off her party dress and sense of humour.

Ideal Mother's Day Gift:
Your Sagittarius mother adores strong, heady perfumes; seek out something based in the oil of hyssop. If she's a traveller, surprise her with a portable CD player and a few discs by her favourite musician - music will help to while away the hours on long flights!

Capricorn
Your Capricorn mother takes the responsibilities of her role as your parent very seriously. She can sometimes play the martyr, putting her kids before everything. This Mother's Day, pay tribute to her dedication by taking her to a restaurant she's always really wanted to visit but felt was too pricey, even as a splurge. Realise that, to her, status is important; just knowing that you understand that will touch this hard-working lady's heart more tenderly than any old homemade card.

Ideal Mother's Day Gift:
Though mushy and sentimental when it counts, your Capricorn mum really appreciates a little extravagance - especially when it involves jewellery. A simple onyx ring or delicate bracelet would suit her conservative but sophisticated taste.
