Characteristics: "Aries is the impulsive, self-motivating go-getter of the zodiac," says Biehl. This fiery sign operates best on its own or when in control -- and not as well under another's command.
Cleanse Horoscope: To get through a cleanse, Aries should make a point to unplug from the every day, says Biehl. Allow yourself to indulge in frequent massages to recharge the mind, body and spirit, and to help balance your energy. "Consciously connecting mind and body will also help," says Biehl. That means reading up about several potential diet programs before trying one or "pursuing a physical regimen with a strong mental component."

Aries has a knack for starting commitments with gusto, but often fails to finish them, says Biehl. Choose a detox that you can do in short bursts, so you can sustain momentum.

Characteristics: Much like the bull that represents it, Taurus is a solid, steadfast and sometimes stubborn sign. "It's also particularly attuned to sensory experiences," Biehl says. Think: the color and smell of flowers, the sound of music, the sight, aroma and taste of food, as well as physical touch.
Cleanse Horoscope: Taurus responds well to taking in the beauty of its surroundings, so for detox success, you'll need to keep your senses stimulated. "A liquid plan won't do for long," says Biehl. "Taurus needs the experience of chewing."

Not ones for depriving themselves of life's finer things, Taurus gals fare best with whole-food cleanses, which allow them to eat a variety of tasty solid food.
