Zodiac Signs and What Skills They Ought to Master During Vacation
Vacations are not only about relaxing — at times, they're the best opportunity to learn a skill that truly holds. Yet what's right for one sign will be pure agony for another. Whether for pleasure, creativity, or the sake of a long-term objective, here's the skill every zodiac sign should embark on during their university break.
Aries
Aries requires something hands-on and action-packed, such as learning a new sport, martial art, or even simple car repair. They prefer skills that provide instant feedback and can be proudly displayed.

Undo
Taurus would benefit from cooking or baking — anything that involves taste, patience, and cosiness. They'd love to master homemade pasta, sourdough, or even candle-making. Slow skills, rich rewards.
Gemini
Gemini loves variety and intellectual stimulation, so language learning or podcasting is an ideal choice. Anything that allows them to speak, connect, or think in the moment is their cup of tea.
Cancer
Cancer would excel at a talent that cultivates, such as journaling, photography, or interior design. They adore taking emotions and making them beautiful, and could make the most emotionally charged vision board ever created.
Leo
Leo should tap into public speaking, acting, or content creation. Anything that helps them express themselves loudly and proudly — and lets their natural charm take the stage.
Virgo
Virgo's ideal vacation skill involves detail and structure — think coding, graphic design, or editing. Give them a challenge with rules and watch them master it quietly before anyone else even opens the tutorial.
Libra
Libra would adore working with makeup artistry, calligraphy, or styling. With their sense of beauty and balance, they're natural talents in any aesthetic craft that makes the world a bit more put-together.
Scorpio
Scorpio is attracted to more intense skills — tarot reading, creative writing, or even programming. They're interested in those things that take concentration and enable them to create something worthwhile in the background.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius needs to lean into travel photography, reading maps, or narrative. They require something adventurous but something they can learn — a skill that accompanies them and improves with every new adventure.
Capricorn
Capricorns would prefer to learn financial planning, investing, or time management skills. For them, creating a productive skill on vacation is the ultimate relaxation.
Aquarius
Aquarius should look into digital art, app creation, or green design. Their skills must be futuristic or revolutionary — something that breaks barriers and isn't yet mainstream.
Pisces
Pisces might get lost in painting, writing songs, or mastering an instrument. They require skills that open up creative avenues, allow them to escape, and make emotion physical.

Strangers to friends: Bond over sports this weekend
Aryaman Singh, Aryan Ghosh, Priyanshu Mandal & Ryan Sengupta after a thrilling football match "I don't think there's anyone in my club I'm not friends with,' says 83-year-old Avinash Sahai, who picked up swimming late in life and stayed for the conversations. Across the city, strangers are turning into teammates as sports is making people connect. Office-goers are finding kinship over turf football and students are swapping cafés for cricket. From dartboards to dawn runs, Kolkata is discovering that the win lies in the forming friendships along the way. I learned swimming in 20 days and met some amazing people through shared interests. Schools should teach the art of conversation – it's how bonds are formed – Avinash Sahai, retired engineer An early morning run at Rabindra Sarobar More than just a jog When Amorto Das began running, it was a solo pursuit. But between laps at Rabindra Sarobar and Zumba warmups, he found community. 'We thought maybe 20 people would show up,' he laughs. 'At the first event, 350 did.' Now, every weekend at 6.30 am, 100–150 people gather to run and bond over coffee. 'There's no pressure, no podium talk,' says Amorto. 'You run, then chat with someone new.' Runner Sreyas Agarwal adds, 'It never feels like you're meeting a stranger after sharing an activity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The friendships that grow over post-run coffee are what keep us coming back.'

It's the kind of bond Shatadru hoped for when he set up one of the city's first artificial turf pitches in 2018. Among the 200+ women now part of the community is 43-year-old Aliya Ahmed Shah. 'For a year and a half, I just stood on the sidelines,' she says. 'Then one day, my daughter nudged me to join in.' Now, she plays alongside her children and has found more than fitness: 'I've made actual friends –not just mom friends.' Darts and the art of friendship Jacqueline Sharon Khanna didn't expect to become a state-level darts player. 'Darts changed everything,' she says, especially the friendships she's made. 'I joined my club's cricket team and bonded with women I'd never spoken to before. Sports just brought us together.' She also plays football, cricket and badminton. For teacher Ujaan Roy, darts started as a way to sharpen his math but grew into a way to connect. 'In Kolkata, darts is a conversation over a board,' he explains. 'You start playing, and soon you're talking about life. It's the banter and cheers that build real friendships.' For both, darts is more than a sport – it's a social lifeline.
