Zodiac jewelry: the zodiac necklace as a personal gift
A zodiac necklace is a personal gift that only requires you to know one thing: someone’s birthday. Your zodiac sign depends on your date of birth, from Aries (March 21 – April 19) to Pisces (February 19 – March 20). Below you will find the dates of all twelve zodiac signs, how to wear and style a zodiac necklace, and tips for giving one as a gift.
The short answer
Which zodiac sign belongs to which date?
- Aries Mar 21 – Apr 19 · Taurus Apr 20 – May 20 · Gemini May 21 – Jun 20
- Cancer Jun 21 – Jul 22 · Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 · Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22
- Libra Sep 23 – Oct 22 · Scorpio Oct 23 – Nov 21 · Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21
- Capricorn Dec 22 – Jan 19 · Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 · Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20
A zodiac necklace looks best worn short, just below your collarbone: on its own, or with a second fine chain and a few little stars in your ears.

Born on the cusp of two signs? The changeover date can shift by a day from year to year, because the sun does not enter a new sign at exactly the same moment every year. If in doubt, check which sign the sun was in for your year of birth.
Solenne: our zodiac necklace
The Solenne has an oval, gold-tone pendant of about 2 by 1.5 centimeters, engraved with your zodiac sign and its English name, for example LEO or CAPRICORN. The fine chain is 38 centimeters with a 7-centimeter extender, so you can wear it at any length between 38 and 45 centimeters.

Solenne – your sign close to your heart
An oval pendant that lies flat against your skin, with an engraved zodiac sign and its English name. Small enough for every day, and so personal you won’t want to take it off.
View the Solenne →It is made of premium stainless steel with a warm gold-tone finish, which makes it waterproof and hypoallergenic: no need to take it off in the shower or the sea. The Solenne comes in eleven signs; only Cancer is missing. For a Cancer you will find a lovely alternative below.
The twelve zodiac signs by element
In astrology, the twelve signs belong to four elements: fire, earth, air and water. Each element has its own character. Take it with a pinch of salt, but it is a fun starting point when you are looking for a gift and want an idea for the rest of the look.
Fire: Aries, Leo and Sagittarius
Fire signs are said to be enthusiastic, warm and outspoken. They don’t mind standing out: wear the Solenne with a pair of chunky gold hoops. Leo is traditionally ruled by the sun, so for a Leo the Helia necklace with three little suns makes a lovely second necklace.
Earth: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn
Earth signs are said to be down-to-earth, loyal and practical. They love jewelry they can wear every day: a simple gold necklace and small studs, nothing more. A waterproof necklace that never has to come off is exactly right.
Air: Gemini, Libra and Aquarius
Air signs are said to be social, curious and playful. They enjoy mixing and matching: the Solenne with a few little stars in the ear, like the Stjerna studs, or with a second necklace.
Water: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces
Water signs are said to be sensitive, intuitive and romantic. Cancer is traditionally ruled by the moon. The Solenne does not come in a Cancer version, but a moon is a lovely alternative: the Sonja half moon hoops in gold tone or the Simone in silver tone.
How to wear a zodiac necklace
At 38 to 45 centimeters, the Solenne sits just below your collarbone. That looks lovely with a round neck, a V-neck or an open blouse, and with a turtleneck you simply wear it over the top. Read which length suits which neckline in the right necklace for every neckline.

Stjerna – little stars for your ears
Star studs of 0.7 centimeters, in gold or silver tone. With a zodiac necklace they are just enough: a nod to the stars without overdoing it.
View the Stjerna →Want to layer? Pair the Solenne with a second necklace of 45 to 50 centimeters so there is space between the pendants. Choose something simple for that second necklace, like a fine chain or a small symbol, so your zodiac sign stays the focal point. More tips in how to layer necklaces. Mixing gold and silver is fine too: read how to mix gold and silver.

A zodiac necklace as a gift
A zodiac necklace is personal without you having to know someone’s taste exactly. Four ideas:
- For a birthdayA birthday always falls in someone’s own zodiac sign. Check the date in the table, especially if their birthday is around the 20th.
- For a new babyGive a new mother her baby’s zodiac sign, so she can wear her little one close to her heart.
- For friendsEach her own sign: a sweet gift for your best friend or a girls’ weekend. More ideas in gifts for your best friend.
- With a birthstonePair the Solenne with a birthstone for the same birthday, such as the Embla necklace or the Zoe ring. Find out which stone belongs to which month in birthstones by month.
