Secret Santa Gifts by Zodiac Sign

What to give to the secret someone on your list

by Sally Philips

Giving is one of the best parts of the holiday season, and the tradition of pulling a recipient's name out of the hat -- whether at work or in your large family -- is one of the more exciting traditions surrounding gift-giving. Thoughtful little gifts are often just as welcome as bigger splashes that cost an arm and a leg. Here are some suggestions for how you can make each Sun sign happy with a surprise gift that doesn't break your bank.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Ever see those wild-eyed winners of shopping sprees madly wheeling their carts down aisles, throwing in everything they can reach? That's an Aries dream come true. Give yours a gift card from a store full of impulse items you know they covet.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
You only need to remember two words for these sensuous souls: body butter. Choose a yummy scent and wrap it up with a bottle of their favorite essential oil or cologne, then top it off with a coupon for a foot massage from yours truly.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
These plugged-in media junkies love their tunes, so you can't go wrong with an accessory that enhances their iPod. Give them one of the new ingenious karaoke microphones that plugs into players, isolates vocal tracks and amps up the singers' renditions.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
These homebodies love the holidays and they love entertaining, so cooking is likely to be a big part of their seasonal agenda. Enhance their domestic ways with a nifty new kitchen gadget: scrapers, peelers, openers, mincers, squeezers, mashers, mixers ... the list goes on.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
These egomaniacs are always intrigued with their own image ... luckily, you can get their photo emblazoned on almost anything from coffee cup to mouse pad. Other items they might like include personalized passport holders, luggage tags, key chains or calendars.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Try one of the new tiny vacuum cleaners designed to tidy up computers. Their super-efficient design features -- including USB power plug and retractable cord -- are sure to make sensible Virgos swoon as they suck up every crumb lodged in their keyboard.
