Where to Travel This Winter Based on Your Zodiac Sign

With the accessibility of relatively affordable flights and the connectedness that comes along with the digital age, the world can truly feel like our oyster. But sometimes the overwhelming amount of options for travel can lead to analysis paralysis. And what better way to make a final call than going by the stars. With astrology-based travel trending, we tapped Meghan Rose, a writer and celebrity astrologer based in Los Angeles.

Rose, who is the author of the popular Star-Crossed: Relationships & Astrology newsletter and has over a decade of experience reading for elite clientele as well as sharing her insights on her TikTok, Instagram, and Substack. She’ll be popping up at the West Hollywood EDITION Lobby Bar through the month of December for a unique experience where guests, patrons, and hotel visitors get free 15-minute sessions with the purchase of the bar’s seasonal cocktail called the Holiday Helper made with Ketel One Vodka, Drambuie, vanilla, lime, and Boiron passion fruit puree.

The residency kicks off December 10, with two more installations on Tuesday, December 17 and Thursday, December 19, going from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. If you can’t swing by the Lobby Bar IRL, you can check out her thoughts on where to travel based on your sign below.
