The world has gone through many changes in recent years and that has caused people to re-evaluate their careers. In some cases, their careers no longer exist forcing them to change directions. Others are finding they must make adjustments to keep forging ahead.
Some who are still searching may find some direction by looking at their Zodiac sign. Your sign doesn’t specifically identify what course you are to take but does identify characteristics that affect the workplace attitude, challenges, and aspirations. Below is a list of identifying factors under Zodiac signs that can be a good place to start looking at changes you can make.
Aries
This aggressive sign tends to push people toward competitive aspirations and careers that involve bravery like athletes or a firefighter. Yet, that may not be you. The key thing to note is you can’t be in a career that requires you to be super patient, sit still, or passive. You need to be physical and be in a job that makes you feel worthy or even self-sacrificing.
You are bold and willing to take on a challenge. You take risks. You persevere and are perfect for management as long as you don’t charge ahead too fast. Keep to your worth ethic and use your intelligence to get ahead.
Taurus
This persistent and stubborn sign gifts those born under it with two speeds: methodical and hyperdrive. Taurus people are those who will take their time to strategize and organize a project before ramming forward to get it done.
This method leads others to believe that you are a procrastinator or lazy and tends to leads to an overabundance of coffee for you. While this method works for you, you may want to help others understand it.
You need a job with routine and stability. It needs to offer little surprises and require high productivity with detail.
Gemini
Communication is the center of Gemini’s world. These are the writers, poets, and songwriters. You have imagination, are quick-witted, and are animated in your expression. You are curious and sociable.
Careers that could fall into your Zodiac characteristics could be journalism, media jobs, public relations, crisis managers, public speaking jobs, and advertising. The Gemini needs a career with flexibility and a lack of structure because routine frustrates them. Pick a career that lets you adapt, change tasks quickly and create your schedule.
Cancer
Those under the Cancer sign are often underestimated. They are also highly sensitive and tend to care about details others overlook. They are nurturers and love helping others. If you are a Cancer, you need to connect emotionally to your job and will find that difficult unless it is making a difference.
People under this sign tend to head to creative careers and have an entrepreneurial spirit. No matter what, they define success by their sense of purpose. Some obvious careers for this group are childcare, healthcare, and education but you aren’t limited to those.
One thing to remember is Cancers, being extremely sensitive, tend to react negatively to criticism so they need a positive work environment. They need support in return for all they give and will shut down when they are micromanaged or threatened in some way.
Cancers need to see support, such as a verbal or email compliment, or something like Secretary Appreciation Day.
Leo
Leos tend to be powerful, high-profile people. Most who study zodiacs state these are people that belong in the public eye. They are the ones on television, on stage, in movies, and public office.
Leos are noted for huge egos but such egos are highly fragile. Some may need to learn how to take the slings and arrows before moving into the public eye. Leos are generous people with true intentions that result in helping others. They like to be proud of their work and gain public notice, which is why they are drawn to politics or charities.
Leos are the most loyal and can work well on a team. These are people who work well independently but are inspired by a teamwork atmosphere.
Virgo
Virgos have specific traits that make them excellent in certain detailed fields. They are organized, neat, and love sanitation. However, their careers can go beyond finance or healthcare. Any career that involves detail and consideration will suit them well, whether it’s filmmaking, interior design, or catering.
Virgos love remote work that doesn’t generate a lot of attention, even though they are excellent managers. They make great leaders as they can set a plan, expectations and create order where there has been extreme chaos.
Virgos like calm professionalism so careers that have no drama will work for you. The one problem Virgo deals with is being hard on yourself so pick a career that offers some support from co-workers and managers.
Libra
Libras will throw themselves into a project wholeheartedly. They are incredibly capable as well as charming. Their passion shows in their work and is normal to them. Libras are interesting because they have an array of interests and are some of the most flexible. Libras love justice and interpersonal connections. This is why they are prone to careers like judgeships, attorneys, diplomats, and other government positions. Libras are natural negotiators, cooperate fulls, and are loyal. They like challenges and work well on a team project. They also look unflustered in every situation, no matter how challenging it is.
Scorpios
Scorpios love attention and know they can get it. They love the glittery look and are enthralled that people stare at them. That is why many ends up speaking to thousands or on the movie screen.
Scorpios also know how to persuade. They love to win an argument and will push the envelope so careers, where they are challenged in this area, are perfect for them. They are charming but can be repelling too. Scorpios are self-critical, determined, and idealistic. That means they can self-sabotage. To succeed, Scorpios need to learn how to take constructive criticism and healthily express emotions.
Sagittarius
Those born under this sign typically are the “life of the party.” They are the best man on campus, the number one athlete, the class clown. They know how to make a boring meeting fun with doughnuts or tequila shots. This adventuresome bunch is ready for anything so they want a lot of excitement and freshness to a career. They get restless when they aren’t stimulated so a job needs to have a lot of variety for them to succeed.
While Sagittarians may seem shallow, they are deep thinkers who have a passion for others. Naturally curious, they want to continue to learn and grow. They have an instinctive charm so they are perfectly confident in any social situation. Some careers that lend themselves to success in this group include teaching, mentoring, and counseling but Sagittarians are limited to that. Any job that breaks the routine and deals with people will likely work for this group.
Capricorn
The Capricorn don’t like fuss and waste. They prefer to get ahead in work rather than go to the office party. They are minimalists who like to run things. They have incredible willpower as well as work ethic and will accomplish anything once they decided to do it.
These are those with responsibility and power. Capricorns don’t need compliments or awards. They are fulfilled by knowing they did their job well. For these reasons, they are remarkable in the business world. They like status, financial success, and high productivity.
Most in this group take conventional career paths and aren’t know for bringing warmth or personality to the office. They do what they say and win everyone’s respect.
Aquarius
Aquarians are interested in the overall plan, the big picture and care little for traditions or taking a career solely for the money. They are super intelligent and are always multiple steps ahead of everyone else so they make great strategists.
Aquarians don’t want work to overtake them and just want enough money to live so they can pursue their true passions. They are eccentric, inventive, and innovative. They want to change things. Jobs that follow their leanings include those in technology or science, or perhaps a charity or government work. They would also love working for intellectual entities like museums or art galleries.
Pisces
Pisces is a most imaginative group. For that reason, some people think of them as “ditzy” or “dreamy.” However, don’t underestimate the characteristics of Pisceans. They have supreme instincts and lots of empathy so they understand people more than most. They are drawn to helping others in that understanding. Highly curious, they can be a therapist or an astronaut as they are always searching for something deeper.
They are optimists and are drawn to jobs that have a mission rather than monetary value or fame. They are reluctant leaders but make for great managers as they understand people’s motivations. The one job they shouldn’t take is a highly competitive one that is based on profit, so careers like sales are a no-go for Pisceans.
Every person has unique characteristics that make them perfect for a particular career. The secret is to discover what makes you tick and which career falls in line with your personality, skills, education, desires, and dreams.
