Placing the perfect diamond [1] on your finger (and then showing it off!) is one of the most memorable parts of getting married [2]. But your engagement ring [3] should also be completely your own. If that means nixing an ordinary design for something more personal, like a turquoise gem, a ruby, or even a pearl, so be it.
But how can you tell which distinctive ring [4] is really right for you? Astrology, of course! Your zodiac sign doesn't only reveal your signature traits [5], but also your major style tendencies and your taste in design. Whether you're a romantic [6] Taurus who goes googly eyed over pink stones or a classic Capricorn who appreciates the sophistication of a traditional diamond, there's an engagement ring for you. Read on to see what's written in the stars.
