As the post-holiday blues cast a shadow, searches for “signs and symptoms of seasonal depression” have increased by more than 550%, so there is no better time to consider a New Year getaway.
With this in mind, BonusFinder.com sought to discover an ideal vacation destination for each zodiac sign based on astrocartography, a form of astrology that allows people to consider which locations are best suited to them, using their birth charts). In this, BonusFinder had the help of celebrity psychic and astrologer Inbaal Honigman, who said: “Applying astrology to well-being, romance or shopping is increasingly popular, but astrocartography isn’t often consulted… yet. Astrocartography is an extension of each individual’s star chart so that you can find the best locations for yourself worldwide. For example, the ‘Sun Line’ would be where you feel most yourself. Your ‘Venus Line’ is the best place to build your home, and Jupiter is the best place for holidays.”
Here are her and BonusFinder’s sun sign suggestions:
