These days, it’s easy to get caught up in work and totally lose yourself in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Before you know it, your social life is non-existent, you have zero notifications on your phone, and you just waste any free time you have surfing the internet mindlessly. Well, with a little effort you can maintain your sanity and actually spend your time constructively – and we have just the list to help you do it, all based on your zodiac sign:
Aries: On your marks, get set, go!
Aries are naturally competitive and bursting with energy. That’s why, if you’re an Aries trapped behind an office desk, or spending all your time in the university library, you most likely feel trapped, and the most suitable way for you to unwind is to start playing a sport. Gather a group of friends a few evenings of the week, and propose a friendly soccer match- and I guarantee you’ll feel all the tension in your body fall away.
Taurus: Got a green thumb?
Taureans are immensely patient (some people may even call them stubborn) and never give up on the things they commit to. That’s why they would find gardening to be the perfect hobby for them ! If anyone can make a plant grow, and actually make sure it survives, it would be a steadfast and nurturing Taurus. But remember, start slow, and invest in a few small potted plants for your bedroom, before you try to grow a vegetable garden!
Gemini: Say cheese!
Geminis love to have fun, and are some of the most artistically inclined signs. They also tend to have a pretty active social life, and a wide friend’s circle – so photography would actually be the perfect hobby for them. They’d get to capture all the memorable moments of the wild nights that they tend to have, and also have an opportunity to experiment and create something beautiful. However, they’d probably also have to deal with all their friends begging them to take pictures of them, because FB pe DP itnay saalon se nahi badli yaar…
Cancer: What’s cooking?
Cancerians are usually the super innocent, caring sweethearts in any group of people. They love to take care of the people around them, and nothing makes them happier than seeing others happy! So, it makes sense that they’d love to learn how to cook for their friends and family, as they’d see it as another way to express their affection for them.
A Cancer would benefit greatly from this hobby, as they’d finally able to host the tea parties and cozy dinners with the people they’re closest to that they’ve always dreamed of, complete with everyone’s favorite food!
Leo: I’m with the band!
It’s no secret that Leos love being the center of attention, whether they like to admit it or not. But it’s only because they have this secret desire to impress everyone – and what better way to do that than by displaying a very loud, in-your-face talent? Only a Leo would have the level of commitment necessary to learn a musical instrument, and they wouldn’t stop until they became a maestro. So, next time you wonder what way to spend your time – consider picking up a guitar, and strum away!
Virgo: Scrap the bad vibes
Virgos are probably one of the few signs who would say no to a hobby. Why, you ask? They’d consider it a waste of time, because they’re such workaholics! Well, hate to break it to you, Virgos, but you guys need a hobby the most. Try scrap-booking. It’s a pretty low maintenance activity, and a great chance to express your pent-up creativity.
The best part is, it’s a relatively peaceful and non-tiring hobby, that won’t require physical exertion or too much of your time, but will still give you that sense of achievement that you always crave .
Libra: What’s the s(t)itch?
Libras love beautiful things – and are usually drawn to craft-work. Knitting is a great activity for them because it’ll teach them that behind every beautiful thing is a great deal of effort. Libras have a tendency to abandon things halfway, and knitting is pretty forgiving in that sense, but they’ll soon be compelled to finish what they’ve started, because they’ve already decided that they want to give a hand-knitted sweater to their friend on their birthday. It’ll teach them the value of hard-work and commitment.
Scorpio: Lighten up!
Scorpios are a complex sign. They find it hard to let people in, because they don’t give away their trust easily, and because they are so real- they can’t stand people who are fake! That’s why, they may find themselves feeling disillusioned by life. The best way for them to find some peace of mind is to be the change they want to see in the world.
If you’re a Scorpio, find a cause, like a local charity or community service scheme, and do some volunteer work! It’ll be a great opportunity for self-reflection, and an even better one to help the ones who need it most.
Sagittarius : Read the signs
Sagittarians crave adventure. Above all, they don’t like being held down, or told what to do. They dream of the day they can travel the world, and finally be free! Unfortunately, they may not be able to fulfill their ambitious and lofty goals as soon as they like and they have a tendency to be easily fooled.
Reading is a hobby that will help a Sagittarius in more ways than one. They’ll get to read about the adventures that they one day hope to have, but they’ll also gain a better insight of what the world around them and the people in it are like, which is far from what they’ve cooked up in their head. Basically, think of it as training.
Capricorn: Finding the right words
Capricorns are known for their hard-working nature. In short: they’re probably on the verge of a breakdown with the amount of stress they have to carry on their shoulders. However, their stress is not usually regarding work because they’re well organized; it usually revolves around their lack of social grace.
Capricorns find it hard to let loose, make friends, and just have fun. If you’re a Capricorn, try learning a new language – but don’t do it online. Join a class, and force yourself to interact with the people in it. You guys will be united by a common goal, and you’ll be forced out of your comfort zone, all while learning a useful new skill!
Aquarius: Add some color to your life
Aquarians love experimentation, and are never too scared to try something new. They are open-minded, and their mind is like a canvas, that they color with interesting new experiences and ideas. So why not transfer your skills to an actual canvas, and take up painting? You don’t have to automatically become Picasso, but follow a few tutorials, or take some lessons in your free time, and soon enough you’ll have some wonderful works to hang up in your house!
Pisces: Are you writing this down?
Pisces folks are deeply intuitive and intelligent people, and they are often the people others go to for advice, or to vent. This can become a little overwhelming for Pisceans, who are intensely sympathetic and feel every emotion deeply – even if it isn’t their own. This is why, keeping a journal, whether it be online, or a good old-fashioned diary with a lock and key, will be extremely helpful for them. It’ll be a way for them to express all the feelings and things that are going through their mind, and they’ll definitely feel a lot lighter after.
So, what hobby do you think you’ll take up? Let us know in the comments.
