If you’re drawn to a certain dish on Thanksgiving, you have to thank the stars!
Between the variety of vegetables that accompany the turkey and the decadent desserts that follow, everyone has a favorite food to look forward to during the holidays — and according to celebrity astrologer Kyle Thomas, it can be linked to your zodiac sign.
In fact, Thanksgiving comes at a time sandwiched between two astronomical events with particularly charged astrological significance. Turkey Day this year falls on November 23rd, after the November New Moon and before the Beaver Moon in the month.
Thomas — who is known for his cosmic guidance for celebrities, business executives and high-profile influencers — tells PEOPLE that November’s Full Moon on Nov. 27 will radiate the Gemini zodiac sign frequency.
Gemini “rules communication and short-distance travel,” Thomas says, and those are two events that many people associate heavily with Thanksgiving. In addition, he says the sign “encourages our minds to connect with others, especially those close to us such as friends, neighbors, close acquaintances and siblings.”
Bring some food for thought to the Thanksgiving table this year, and scroll down to find out which holiday dishes you pair with based on your zodiac sign, according to Thomas’ suggestions.

When it comes to the zodiac sign that seeks “variety” and “adventure,” Thomas says Aries is because of the sign ruled by Mars. So he says the Thanksgiving dish you get along with the most is a festive salad!
Having a fun-loving spirit that’s “ready for anything” is why Thomas says “a wide variety of salads can satisfy Aries’ cravings” at the holiday table. Whether they are spicy or sweet, try them all!

Of all the zodiac signs with a sweet tooth, Thomas says it’s “definitely” Taurus. So he says the Thanksgiving dish you get along with the most is cake!
Ruled by Mars, Thomas says Tauruses like to “enjoy the moment” because it “teases their taste buds.” Because of this, they’ll probably “dive right into” any cake on the menu – but can you blame them? “Their fluffy goodness will make them feel like kids again,” she adds.

Thomas says Geminis “crave social interaction and laughter;” therefore, the Thanksgiving item they most agree with is juice or wine. “A social lubricant,” he says, “could help their slippery tongue stir the pot of conversation” at the dinner table!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Because crawfish are known to be “traditional in a lot of ways,” Thomas says the Thanksgiving side dish they go best with is mashed potatoes. “They love the feeling of a home-cooked meal,” he says, adding that they will be “attracted” to this preparation “because of the simple comfort and warmth.”

As earth signs, Thomas says Virgos “love to cook for the ones they love” and “enjoy respecting tradition.” That’s why he says the Thanksgiving item they most agree with is the food synonymous with the holiday: roast turkey or ham!
(For bragging purposes, Thomas says that Virgos “might even be the best ‘kitchen witches’ in the zodiac!”)

Ruled by Venus, Thomas says Libras “love sugar, sweet, and all things good” and are therefore most attuned to what comes after Thanksgiving dinner: cookies!
However, as an air sign, Thomas adds that Libras “can be a bit indecisive” since they’re “symbolized by Libra” — but that means they’ll “eagerly try to nibble on all the cookies on the table just to see which one hits,” he adds.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Seasoned breads with butter.

Thomas says Scorpios are “the most intense zodiac sign” in the circle, which means they often have an all-or-nothing mentality. He says this is especially true when it comes to food, craving “deep and immersive experiences and cuisine.”
Meanwhile, Thomas says the Thanksgiving foods that Scorpios go best with are buttered bread and spicy spreads because of the “simplicity and power” that would “capture” them. While there’s “a lot to focus on” with these cute sides, Thomas says he’ll “still be drawn to his passion.”

Whether it’s apple, cherry or pumpkin, “they’ll be willing to try them all,” he says.

As the most traditional zodiac sign in astrology, Thomas says Capricorns will be drawn to mac and cheese. He explains, “That’s because their planetary ruler is Saturn, which makes them choose the humble classic!”

Thomas says Aquarians are known for being “forward-thinking individuals,” since they’re ruled by Uranus. Of all the foods on the Thanksgiving table, he says this zodiac sign goes best with grilled vegetables.

As the water sign symbolized by the fish, Thomas says Pisces are “always drawn to viscosity”—which is why he says they’re the Thanksgiving food their favorite soups will be excited to “swim toward”! The best part about this, he says, is “I can try a little bit of them all” since the soups are easy to consume.
