Activities are easier for me to do, because I actually do have pretty specialised listening habits based on what I'm doing:

Tired/sleeping: Soft Machine or Grateful Dead - I listen to one of these two bands almost every night
Doing homework: Infected Mushroom, or pretty much any mellow trance artist
Jogging: Speed metal, or any classic/stoner metal with a decent tempo (i.e. Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Orange Goblin, Wolfmother)

For moods, it's a lot harder to give examples, but here's my best shot:

Happy: varies too widely to say, but this is definitely my most metal mood - I'll listen to nearly any genre as long as it's not emo-ish or slow in tempo
Bored: Electric Wizard at the moment - the murky, trippy abrasiveness is very satisfying in this mood
Relaxed: Grateful Dead, Ten Years After - other hippie rock
Depressed: usually not metal - probably something like Steely Dan or the Doobie Brothers - though if any metal band it would be Sunn O)))
Reflective: Opeth
Sentimental: Bathory

 

[Cythraul]

Standing on a mountaintop, raising your stein filled with fine brew to the sky, and making a mighty toast to the gods: Odroerir

 

[Sigma]

How about music for seasons?

Summer: Arcana - Le Serpent Rouge
The whole album is filled with an warm, dry, unending opressive drone. Feels as if you are lost in the desert, crawling in the summer's heat. Hypnotic.

Fall: Tiamat - Wildhoney
Warm production but with a distant atmosphere. Mid paced with lots of contrasts that plays well into the weather outside. Excellent for a walk on a nice grey-skied fall day.

Winter: Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger
Fenriz said it best on the interview contained with this cd "... fucking cold!"

Spring: Mercyful Fate - Melissa
General upbeat riffs and solos and King's vocals, but mainly for my own personal nostalgic reasons.
