July 4 Celebrations by Zodiac Sign

Create some fireworks of your own

Fiery Mars is facing off with powerful Pluto this 4th of July, adding a special energy to the holiday. Make the most of this July 4th by honoring your unique style of celebrating!

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
With your affinity for all things explosive, you're likely to be fixated on the fireworks. If you've got your own stash, you'll have to exercise serious self-discipline to save a few for the 4th. Your competitive spirit would relish participation in a race or contest -- if you're not too busy leading the parade.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Holidays are all about food, to the true Taurus, so a picnic or barbeque is your preferred mode of celebration. You appreciate the simplicity of Independence Day fare: burgers and apple pie are right up your alley. If possible, take some time away from the crowds and relax in a peaceful natural setting.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Your perfect party day involves making the rounds and dropping in on several different neighborhood gatherings -- after, of course, the parade. You won't want to limit your options by committing to just one celebration.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer is the sign of nation and homeland -- as well as the USA's Sun sign -- so you have a personal connection with this holiday. Your ideal celebration involves your close friends and family coming to your own backyard for a barbeque, where you can offer your classic comfort-food spread.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
You're used to being the life of the party, and this holiday is no exception. Go all out and host a theme party, asking guests to dress up as their favorite American patriots. Don't forget the Independence-Day yard decorations, like a lit-up Statue of Liberty.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Admit it -- this is probably not your favorite holiday. Loud noises, crowds, messy food … it all can feel like a bit much. Invite a friend or loved one to hike up a mountain to watch the fireworks from a safe, peaceful, nature-based distance.
