Sports and Hobbies of the Sun Signs Aries through to Virgo

Some people will lose themselves for hours in computer and Internet games, while others are passionate about exploring the great outdoors. Some might turn on the TV to relieve stress, others will prefer to be busy in the garden, cooking or doing something useful. Here are some of the ways the Zodiac signs Aries through to Libra might spend their leisure hours:   

Aries Hobbies and Leisure Interests

Possible areas in which people might prefer to spend their leisure time can often be associated with their Zodiac sign’s ruling planet. With so much Martian energy, for instance, Aries will be as keen and energetic in their spare time pursuits as they will be in their main career ambitions.

Aries has a lot of positive drive which may centre on competitive sports such as horse-racing, football, tennis or more risky, exciting adventures such as parachute jumping or motor bike riding.   

Taurus Hobbies and Leisure Interests

With Venus as its ruling planet, Taurus appreciates art, music and creativity. They can also be quite lazy! Taking up some form of exercise is important to the Taurus; this will be needed in order to work off those extra calories they can’t help but accumulate thanks to their strong appreciation for good food!   

Gemini Hobbies and Leisure Interests

The fast moving planet Mercury associated with mental pursuits, communication and knowledge rules Gemini. Geminis need a variety of hobbies and pastimes to fill their days. Having a lot of people around them, many things on the go and plenty of noise and activity keeps the Gemini happy. Visits to the library, watching videos or taking a home-study course will occupy their restless mind. Quick and light forms of exercise keep them physically trim.   

Cancer Hobbies and Leisure Interests

Cancerians enjoy looking back into the past and may choose to spend their holidays ambling through old houses and museums. When travelling, they will no doubt have a few historical novels tucked away in their suitcase! Activities centred on the home and family will prove a satisfying diversion to the Cancerian whilst a collection of some sort: post cards, stamps, paintings for instance, will also be included in their list of hobbies.   

Leo Hobbies and Leisure Interests

Acting as host in social situations, working with young children, purchasing expensive clothes and jewellery could all be included in the spare-time pursuits Leo would enjoy. With a flair for drama Leo might be a prominent member of an amateur dramatic society. As well as enjoying sports, Leo will show a measure of creativity and will put this talent to use in leisure activities.   

Virgo Hobbies and Leisure Interests

It would be rare to see a Virgo sitting doing nothing. Virgos like to keep busy, preferably in a practical sort of way. Hobbies, therefore, may include gardening, intricate creative work, cooking, and knitting. An appreciation for music and art helps Virgo relax and unwind. Unless (which is highly likely) they are busy with another project while listening to the music!
