Jewelry shopping can be intimidating. That’s why we started Ask Holden, our blog where we answer your FAQs, break down scary industry lingo, and guide you in finding the perfect piece of jewelry.
The time has finally come! We already picked out The Best Wedding Ring for Every Astrological Sign, and we’re finally choosing your engagement ring. But first, we’d like to make a quick disclaimer that this is just the (completely biased) opinion of one horoscope-loving person on the Holden team and by no means should you feel obligated to let us determine the ring you’ll wear for the rest of your life. At the end of the day, the ring you choose is up to you (and we might be biased, but we love them all). So without further ado, enjoy the ramblings of someone with the CoStar app and a lot of passion (as to be expected from an Aries).
Aries - The Embrace Solitaire Set
As natural born leaders, Aries exude confidence. You’re courageous, fiery, and unafraid to speak your mind and challenge the norms, especially when it comes to your engagement ring. The Embrace Solitaire Set with an emerald diamond is bold, daring, and not afraid to take up space—just like you.

Taurus - The Floating Solitaire
If there’s one thing that makes a Taurus a Taurus, it’s your undying love of luxury and leisure. The Floating Solitaire with a cushion shaped diamond is the perfect representation of your desire need for rest and relaxation (I mean, you do need something to rest your head on). Plus, the floating diamonds on the band add extra sparkle, giving this ring a brilliant, luxurious look.
Gemini - The Gem Yin Yang Set
There are two sides to every coin, and Geminis are a prime example. As the sign of the twins, it only felt right to pair you with The Gem Yin Yang Set. This two-part ring symbolizes the duality of your opposing yet complementary parts. For someone as curious and playful as you, you need a non-traditional ring that speaks to your versatile and adaptive nature.
Cancer - The Melt Solitaire Set
A true water sign, Cancers are known for being deeply emotional and protective of their feelings. The Melt Solitaire Set, with its wave-like shape and a pear diamond (AKA a teardrop diamond), is the most obvious fit for such a sensitive water sign. But proceed with caution: a pear shaped diamond is as delicate as you—its pointed tip can chip if not properly protected by your ring setting.
Leo - The Double Claw Solitaire
We all know that Leos thrive in the spotlight and would gladly welcome a chance at royalty status. So, what screams royalty louder than an ultra-elegant ring setting? With not one, but two pointed prongs, The Double Claw Solitaire is both classic and classy, allowing your princess center stone to shine extra bright.

Virgo - The Arc Solitaire
Virgos are notorious perfectionists with meticulous attention to detail—sometimes to their own detriment. They’re extremely trustworthy and reliable, just like our trusty Arc Solitaire, which is consistently one of our bestselling rings. This, plus their loyalty and kindness, is part of what makes them such great companions and partners.
Libra - The Round 3-Stone
Libras are known as balancers. Being the compassionate and empathetic person you are, you often mirror those around you in an effort to be receptive. This mirroring is reflected in the perfect symmetry of The Round 3-Stone. But reciprocation is key, and you like to be validated by others, too—hey, you’re only human! This 3-stone stunner has nearly three times the bling, so rest assured, your ring is bound to be noticed.
Scorpio - The Panorama Signet
Dear Scorpio: you’re sharp, intuitive, and intense. So for you, we’re choosing something totally different from the rest. The Panorama Signet’s built-in marquise diamond is as sharp as your wit and as sparkling as your personality, making it your perfect funky engagement ring.
Sagittarius - The Low Set Bezel Solitaire
Sagittariuses have an insatiable appetite for adventure and change. Your endless curiosity results in many spontaneous decisions, making the low set bezel ring the most durable choice for your carefree lifestyle. Plus, without the sharp corners of a princess cut diamond, your radiant diamond is less likely to chip.

Capricorn - The Facade Signet
Disciplined perfectionists, Capricorns are notorious workaholics. Always booked and busy, you need a match that’s not only durable but also comfortable to wear for long periods of time, which is why we picked The Facade Signet with an Asscher diamond for you. The protective setting is pragmatic, while the Asscher shape gives just enough sparkle without being too much.
Aquarius - The Corridor Signet
Aquarians are air signs and the ultimate nonconformists. Just like air, you can’t really be contained or expected to stick to the status quo. For that reason, we picked a totally different, non-traditional engagement ring for you: The Corridor Signet. While cool and unexpected, this signet style still has a lot of sparkle. Is this your engagement ring or for everyday stacking? The ambiguity is what makes it very you. You’ve always done your own thing, regardless of what everyone else is doing, and we think that’s really rad.
Pisces - The Organic Bezel Solitaire
Prepare for the water works because Pisces are as emotional and sensitive as they get. As a crier and a water sign, it’s only right that you get The Organic Bezel Solitaire with a pear diamond (which looks like a teardrop or water droplet). The organic, textured band is not rigid but fluid, just like your range of emotions.
