A person's Sun sign often reflects their inner hopes and dreams. Halloween costumes are an exciting opportunity to bring these fantasy lives to the surface.
If you're stuck for Halloween costume ideas, check out the list below. It could provide you with the perfect outfit to express your inner demons!
Your sign is ruled by Mars, the warrior of the zodiac. Dress up as a gladiator or a luchador (a Mexican wrestler). Aries is also the sign of courage, so a police officer, firefighter or military officer uniform would help you express your inner Ram. Superhero costumes are also popular this year, and bold Aries is perfectly suited to take on Superman, Batman or Iron Man.
Your sign is known for earthy beauty, from sensuous curves to brawny muscles. Dress up as Miss America or Mr. Universe to show off what you've got. You can also dress up as Poison Ivy or a walking tree to channel the Bull's love for green pastures. Taurus also loves to indulge, so don't hesitate to dress yourself up like a sweet cupcake!
What better way to dress up than to be Siamese Twins with your best bud or girlfriend? You can literally be joined at the hip! You could also go as famous real-life Twins, such as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Or a famous real-life Gemini, Angelina Jolie. Gemini is also an androgynous sign, so be a half-man/half-woman creature ... or just go in drag!
Your sentimental sign loves the homeland, so express your patriotism as the Statue of Liberty or Uncle Sam. Cancer also loves food, so dress up as an oversized banana or a milk carton. You can also pay tribute by dressing up as real-life Cancer Princess Diana, or embrace your sign's nurturing instincts to dress as a famous mom, like Carol Brady, Marge Simpson, or Morticia Addams!
What better way to channel your sign's mascot than as the Lion from The Wizard of Oz, or in a sexy cat costume? And of course, glamorous Leo rules over royalty and stars, so dress up as a king, queen or just wear tons of gold. Or go as an A-list celebrity or movie star, like Marilyn Monroe or Elvis.
This perfectionistic, word-loving sign can express its erotic earthiness as a sexy librarian. Virgo is also associated with Demeter, the grain goddess ... so a chaff of wheat may be right up your alley. Virgo is a great pet lover, so you could dress up as an animal -- a cat or dog or even a fox costume could be perfect. Or go as a classic Virgo good-girl, like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz -- and don't forget her little dog, too!
What better way to bring balance to this holiday than to dress up as Justice? A scale in each hand would help you make sure everyone gets their equal share of candy, especially if you're dressed up as Judge Judy. Or put on your best threads and say you're a fashion guru or interior designer. Libra is also the sign that most loves to shop, so dress up as a shopaholic with tons of boxes and bags and you'll feel right at home.
Your sign is the private investigator of the zodiac, so you may want to dress up as Sherlock Holmes, Nancy Drew, or Inspector Gadget. Scorpio also rules the underworld -- so going all-out as your favorite Mafioso will do, whether it's Tony Soprano or Al Capone. Scorpio is also perfect for so many dark, creepy Halloween costumes -- the Grim Reaper, Darth Vader, and the Devil will do. Or you could be a zombie prom queen, a skeleton, or a corpse bride!
The adventurer of the zodiac may want to dress up as Indiana Jones or Lara Croft. Sagittarians also love to make people laugh, so donning a clown costume or the silliest outfit you can find will be good for a few chuckles. The sign of the Archer is also perfectly suited to play a huntress from The Hunger Games, like Katniss Everdeen -- just don't forget your bow!
The businessman of the zodiac may want masquerade as a Silicon Valley tech bro or old-fashioned oil tycoon. Strong women, such as Hillary Clinton or Joan of Arc, are also well-suited to your sign. Capricorn also excels at building, so a construction worker's outfit -- make sure you wear a helmet -- will help you blast through any crowd. You could also be a superhero, as Capricorn is known for its nearly superhuman strength of character!
Aquarius rules outer space, so what better way to celebrate Halloween than as an astronaut ... or a space alien? Dress up as a scientist in a lab coat and taped glasses to channel this sign's intellectual bent, or put on fake tattoos and piercings to show your inner rebel. Robots, like in Dr. Who or Star Wars -- think R2D2 and C3P0 -- are perfect for your quirky sign!
Your sign's ruling planet, Neptune, commands the sea. Dress up as a mermaid or King of the Sea (carry your trident, or three-pronged spear!). Artistic Pisces would also love to be a ballerina, painter or poet for Halloween. Or wear soft flowing fabrics to be the Muse. Pisces is also known as the most psychic sign of the zodiac, so a gypsy fortune teller Halloween costume would be perfect!
