The Laziest Thing Each Zodiac Sign Does

There are times when you just have to let yourself be lazy. You can think of it as self-care because, in many ways, it is. Life is hectic, and we all spend a lot of time working and being busy.

Each sign of the Zodiac has their own way of doing everything, and that includes how lazy they are. The laziest thing the zodiac signs do is all dependent on what astrology reveals about their personality traits and how they act in certain situations. So, who are the lazy zodiac signs?

Well, we all have our own ways of being lazy, and often times it’s just shutting the world out and sleeping. If you are the kind of person who is always overscheduled and feels weird if you’re not being active and productive, your laziness will be different than someone who is a sloth and has no problem doing nothing. 

It can be difficult for some people to recognize that there is a place in our lives for laziness. These kinds of people may beat themselves up for being lazy and not recognize that we all need to recharge our batteries sometimes. If you always keep going and going, you could wind up exhausted and spent.

It’s important to take breaks and allow yourself to do nothing. It’s great if you can be lazy outdoors or in a beautiful place, but that’s not always practical.

ARIES (March 21 - April 19)

Aries aren't known for being lazy. In fact, they're usually so overscheduled and overbooked that they have to get to a place of boredom before they'll get lazy. The laziest thing that Aries does is text, message, or call someone who is only a room away.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)

Virgos aren't a traditionally lazy sign — they'd judge themselves too harshly if they were. The laziest thing a Virgo might do is not make their bed (usually because their cat or dog is there and comfortable), or not do some household chore right away.

The thing is, a sink full of dishes or not throwing out flowers that had wilted right away would probably make Virgo feel very anxious.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)

Pisces are good at laziness, but they don't really see it as laziness per se; they see it as a time to daydream and think of ideas.
