Spiritual Gifts for Grads
I’m on the hunt for the perfect gifts for grads so it’s only fitting that I would apply my astrology wisdom to generate some ideas!
My first born will be graduating from high school this year and part of me is wanting to give a traditional gift to her, but another part is thinking, why not get her a gift that inspires and delights the dominant element in her chart?
Below you’ll find 12 gift ideas that are curated to align with your graduate’s dominant element in their birth chart. You can use these ideas to dictate your gift or inspire a new idea!
Experiential gifts for Fire Signs
For the fire signs, we are talking about Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. All of these signs have an intense desire to consume, it is their element’s natural tendency. When we look at these signs from their element, we realize that these people LOVE experiential gifts. They travel a lot, value experiential events, and go do things that have no tangible reward. The reward is internal. The reward is the experience of the event. And so, here are a few ideas for those fiery grads.
Astrology readings
A great way to help a grad on their next chapter is to gift an astrology reading. I offer gift cards for one on one virtual readings as well as mini readings that are pre-recorded. An astrology reading is an empowering and deeply transformative experience in which the astrology guides the native (person reflected by the natal chart,) through an intuitive and technical interpretation that can help them discover what they are here to do on this planet and the positions in their chart that are supporting their progress.
Memberships
Since the fire signs love experiences, a membership to their favorite kinds of experiences is a good choice. Think museum or art gallery memberships for the creative type, or travel clubs for the adventurer. I offer an astrology membership for those interested in honing their astrological chops and applying astrology to crafting a vibrant life.
Travel Experiences
Of course the most loved experiential gift is the ability to travel. Anything that can get these fiery people out to explore the world such as travel vouchers, all-inclusive trips, new luggage to take on future trips etc.
Intellectual Gifts for Air Signs
For our highly intellectual air sign grads, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, we look to expand their intellect and broaden their horizons in their mind. These are the kinds of people who love stories, whether they are creating them or consuming them. Choose an intellectual option for the air sign graduate.
Books
I have been collecting witchy and astrological books over the past few years and have a few mystical options for you to choose from if your grad is a spiritual book lover. All the books below are affiliate links and I will receive a small commission, at no cost to you, if you choose to buy any of them.

Subscriptions
Similar to the experiential gifts for the fire signs, the air signs love the experience of mental gymnastics. Learning and consuming information is deeply rewarding for them. So why not get a paid subscription to their favorite podcast or paid content creator? How about a subscription to Audible to binge all the audiobooks they want. Or maybe buy them a digital astrology course they would love to dig into?
Storytelling Workshops
One thing that some air signs love to do is tell stories. Your air sign grad could be a promising writer! There is an incredible course available for budding authors that helps them write and self publish their own book. The Tiny Book Course has helped over 1000 authors write and publish their works. (I’m not an affiliate, I just love their work and the people behind it.) This would be a great experience for those intellectual storyteller grads in your life.
Physical Gifts for Earth Signs
These grads have a love of all things physical and sensual. The earthy signs of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn all have a love of creating things with their hands and bringing ideas into the physical world. Give them the gift of pleasure and appreciation of their senses with one of the physical gift ideas below.
Art/Craft Supplies
You may have an artist or maker on your hands if all they love to do is paint, tinker, craft and make things using the power of their imagination and their skilled hands. Buying a gift card to an art supply store or their favorite craft store will give them something to do in their free time post school.
Crystals/Plants
Earthy signs love to play with the fruits of nature. You can buy them crystals, (some are quite pricey but you can often find good deals on the most coveted ones at the annual gem and crystal show in your city,) or plants to nurture. Some grads leaving for college or post college will need some green in their lives for their new homes.
Moon Play Journal
I created a luxe Moon Journal for the highly sensual Moon lover. Two options, Moon only with just Moon rituals and seasonal reflection pages. Or the Aspire which features an astrological planner in addition to daily tracking pages and more. They are handcrafted and printed on premium paper for a journal unlike any on the market today.
Intuitive Gifts for Water Signs
For our more emotional and watery signs, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, we can give them gifts that increase their intuition or help them create space for emotional healing. These signs are also quite creative as well, so any of the more creative gifts from above can also intrigue and satisfy the water signs.
Oracle Decks
Oracle or Tarot decks can help them tune into their intuition on a deeper level. My favorites are listed below. All the products below are affiliate links and I will receive a small commission, at no cost to you, if you choose to buy any of them.
Wisdom of the Oracle
Starseed Oracle
Healing Waters Oracle
Water Healing Gifts
These water lovers need water in their lives to practice self care. Giving them gifts that include water will help them on their tough days in work and grad school. Appreciating their emotional intelligence gifts with gifts for expansion will also help them in their future careers and relationships.
- Water features for their desk or office
- Hot springs trip vouchers
- Float tank experiences
- Artisan witchy bath salts
Spa or Wellness Retreats
Giving them the gift of time and space to heal and nourish themselves is perfect for water signs. When their cups are full, they can help heal others. This gift allows them to practice self care and be an example for others on their healing journeys.
Giving Gifts That Inspire
When we tune into our elemental gifts within our natal chart, magic happens! Giving any of the gifts on this list to your grad can help them cultivate a greater appreciation for their cosmic blueprint and give them a leg up on the next chapter of their journey.
