12 Capricorn Gifts To Get This Year

The holidays are rapidly approaching and so are your Capricorn friends’ birthdays. But what exactly is considered a good Capricorn gift? These no-nonsense, practical sea-goats (no, we won’t apologize for saying that) are characterized by their ambition and hard work. Basically, they’re out to climb the career ladder, conquer the world, and win every board game imaginable. So don’t get them trinkets—gift them the tools needed for world domination or like a really, really nice laptop cover.

How to Approach Your Capricorn Gift Ideas 

Born December 22 to January 19, Capricorns have a bit of a tendency to be ‘all work and no play’—sometimes, they seriously need to unwind. But don’t tell them that. Instead, bait them (with love) into a nice little self-care sesh. 

Ruled by Saturn, the planet of structure and boundaries, Caps exude big boss energy. They’re more than likely to have a detailed to-do list, a five-year plan, and a color-coded Google calendar. As cardinal signs, they’re natural-born leaders, and as earth signs, they’re grounded and concerned with material things—they prefer living in the now rather than dwelling on the past or daydreaming about a far-off future. A good Capricorn gift idea should express that. 

Additionally, practical Caps don’t really get caught up in every single trend like certain other signs—Libras, we’re looking at you. Instead, they tend to march to the beat of their drum, inserting personal elements into their style, makeup, and interior decor. And while this is not to say they’ll never try out a trend, they're going to need a much better reason than “it’s very in right now” to give it a go. So when picking out a birthday gift for your favorite Capricorn, remember that they’re definitely a ‘quality over quantity’ type.
