The Type of Weekend Getaway Each Zodiac Sign Needs
Aries: Novelty & Physical Movement
As someone with tremendous willpower and exertion, Aries, your ideal weekend getaway includes novelty. Use this time for activities that get your mind and blood pumping. Think: bungee jumping, scuba diving, grabbing an extra tattoo while you’re at it. Talk to locals about their favorite food choices and give yourself permission to experience the best of the best from a local’s perspective.
Taurus: Ground in Nature & Pleasure
With an affinity for sensuality and all things pleasure, Taurus, your ideal weekend getaway involves feeling into the richness of life. The type of environment matters less than the overall intention behind it. Avoid forcing experiences or situations that seem overstimulating or drain your precious energy. Book a stay at a cozy cabin, visit hot springs, camp on a beach with friends, stargaze under treetops with a lover, or get that massage you’ve been eyeing after. Only include those who feel right for your soul.
Gemini: Urban Adventure
A lover of learning and knowledge, Gemini, your ideal weekend getaway involves intellectual stimulation and planned activities that center around personal hobbies and goals. You may benefit from taking more frequent getaways (including intentional stay-cations) compared to certain others. Urban areas energize your soul. Build a weekend based on seeing a favorite sports team play, pick museums that excite you, go to an event hosted by a favorite influencer, or see a musician perform at a venue you’ve been dying to go to.
Cancer: Connect with Chosen Family
Reveling in the unconscious domain, Cancer, you thrive in weekend getaways that foster a sense of belonging and interpersonal connection. Avoid societal pressure to engage in “all the things,” and only engage with what fosters a sense of deep personal meaning. Your ideal weekend getaway involves spending time with members of chosen friends and family. To you, the little things are the big things.
Leo: Indulge & Be Pampered
A sign who thrives on self-expression and leading by means of self-discovery, Leo, you ideally have a sense of variety and novelty in weekend excursions. You benefit more by taking less frequent, but more extreme travel as opposed to less profound, more frequent stay-cations. Saving money and being intentional in travel planning allows you to indulge and feel pampered when breaking free from the realms of status quo. Think: glamping, a music festival, or city weekend with your closest friend group. Financial restriction during travel will decrease the sense of meaning an experience brings to you.
Virgo: Self-Care & Wellness Retreat
With a keen eye for detail and precision, Virgo, your ideal weekend getaway involves organized activity focused on self care. As a sign who tends to express service towards others, take time to savor in what brings you comfort, joy, and release. This may involve a healing spa weekend, yoga retreat, romantic getaway, or spending time in nature.
Libra: Balance Everyday Living
A lover of harmony, Libra, your ideal weekend getaway creates a sense of balance within your everyday life. If you find yourself in a particularly busy season, a weekend getaway that allows time for introspection will heal your soul. If life has been moving at a slower pace than usual, spend time in a bustling city environment.
Scorpio: Let Go of Maladaptive Patterns
With a deep value for meaning, Scorpio, weekend getaways mean more than what’s seen surface-level. You need an opportunity to let go of patterns that may no longer be serving. This involves a mix of time in solitude (an early morning run, time reading, space to solo-hike), as well as opportunities to challenge and integrate new, authentic ways of being. For you, a night out on the town (date nights, dinners, dancing) are radical forms of self-healing.
Sagittarius: All-In Adventure
Carrying an adventurous spirit, Sagittarius, your ideal weekend getaway allows time to immerse into new cultures. Whereas certain people may benefit from time spent compartmentalizing activities, you benefit the most when your getaways go all in. This may look like renting out a ski in/ski out condo, staying with a friend in their bustling city apartment, or camping.
Capricorn: Goal-Oriented Travel
Ambitious and persistent Capricorn, your ideal weekend getaway allows you to work towards a larger goal. This experience is enhanced when shared with close friends and chosen family. Backpacking, embarking on a road trip, volunteer work, and learning new skills such as art, cooking, or in areas of professional development will ignite your internal fire far after the trip is over.
Aquarius: Leave Space to Wander
Innovative and humanitarian at heart, Aquarius, your ideal weekend getaway allows space for choosing your own adventure. Think: booking a room in a city with no schedule, wandering art galleries and museums, or taking a road trip to explore nearby towns. You may benefit from solo travel more than others, or perhaps enjoy travel as an opportunity to invite and deepen a connection with an acquaintance.
Pisces: Connect With Soul
The dreamer of the Zodiacs, Pisces, you benefit when travel touches on inspiration. An ideal weekend getaway involves a gentle rhythm and pace. The “what” and “where” are far less important than the “why” behind your change of space and scenery. The most fulfilling travel touches on deeper goals and aspirations, connecting you with personal values and meaning. Give yourself permission to adventure and explore, and allow an opportunity to integrate what you’ve learned back into everyday habits of being when the trip is over.
