Aries: March 21 - April 19

Sign: The ram

Associated Element: Fire

Dominant Traits: Competitive, dynamic, eager, quick, bold, ambitious

Ruled by: Mars

Where to Go: Tokyo

Competitive and ambitious Aries will find Tokyo the place to be in the next year. As host of the Summer Olympic games, rescheduled to take place in 2021, this is where the world's most competitive athletes will call home for a few weeks.

Join them and watch the excitement take place under Tokyo's new stadium in Tokyo Bay as well as venues across the Heritage Zone, where the 1964 Olympics took place. Even if you visit the city when the Olympics aren't in session, you will find it lively enough to keep you entertained at every turn.

Where to Stay

Tokyo is in such demand that hotels can be a bit pricey if you want to be in the heart of it all. One hotel that provides luxury for less is the Shangri-La Tokyo, a five-star property across from Tokyo Station.

The Shangri-La offers unobstructed views of Tokyo's Imperial Palace and Mount Fuji and provides an indoor heated swimming pool with views as well.

Where to Stay

In the heart of Sayulita's Magic Town is an adults-only boutique property meant to make you feel as if you live here on the Riviera Nayarit coastline.

You'll be just blocks away from all the action while staying in one of six suites at Distrito 88, which features elevated pools and ocean or garden views.

You need the dramatic in your life, and watching herds of wildlife run across the plains is certainly that.

The second-oldest of the islands has only 51,000 people living on it, leaving nearly 80 percent of the island uninhabited.

Deep jungles filled with towering waterfalls abut the Pacific Ocean and look much as it did when the island was formed more than 5 million years ago.

Where to Stay

You'll have to stay closer to a town to enjoy this island, but as a practical person, you already knew that, Virgo. Stay along Hanelai Bay to be closest to the wilds of Na Pali Coast State Wilderness Park, Alakai Wilderness Preserve, Na Pali Kona Forest Reserve and Halelea Forest Reserve.

Try the Hanelai Colony Resort, which is tucked away from it all on a secluded beach beside the mountains. The condo-style accommodations provide a home-away-from-home feel with a kitchen and living space for the efficient traveler.

The land itself seems to be in perfect harmony as well. The green upon green along the Ring of Kerry feels magical and suits a Libra best.

Where to Stay

Libra, you rarely like to pamper yourself, but allow a little luxury in your life with a stay at Dromoland Castle in western Ireland.

Minutes from the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren and the Ring of Kerry, you'll be surrounded by Ireland's beauty and have the pleasure of staying in an actual castle.

Ruled by: Saturn

Where to Go: Munich

If there is a country of people known for being quite serious and independent, Germany often comes to mind. And this country, known for perfecting automobile engineering, beer and taking everything they do very seriously (even having fun), seems practically filled with Capricorns.

In the German state of Bavaria, the Purity Law of 1516 required that beer can only be made with barley, hops and water. It still exists to this day, although yeast has been added. You can sample the best of German beers at the world's largest beer festival in Munich (Oktoberfest).

While visiting Munich, you can also swing by BMW's headquarters and museum, found in a four-cylinder skyscraper, to see how Germany is a leader in building cars.

Where to Stay

Capricorns like things clean and orderly. You'll find it at the elegant Sofitel Munich Bayerpost.
