What You Should Do With Your Life Based on Your Astrological Sign
As you know, every astrological sign has its own set of traits and personality characteristics. You can also look at them to see what careers might be best for you. Below, find out what jobs might be a good fit based on your sign. Of course every personality is different and yours may not fall perfectly into what the zodiac chart has to say, but you can use this as a guide if you’ve recent graduated and are looking for career inspiration.
1/12Aries
As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries is used to being number one. That certainly explains your competitive nature in the workforce. You’ve got big ideas and have the energy and bravery to make them happen. You also enjoy the spotlight, so when it’s time to reap the benefits of your success, you don’t shy away from being proud. After all, you know you work hard and you deserve the praise. Just be careful not to burn out — your passion can sometimes turn you into a workaholic. We know it’s hard to slow down when you’re enjoying the challenge, but it’s important for your sanity and your career to take care of yourself, too. Best Jobs: PR Pro, Doctor, Travel Blogger, Entrepreneur
2/12Taurus
Your loyalty is one of your strongest traits in life and career, Taurus. Bosses love you because you’re hard-working and they know you’ll get the job done without having to be reminded of deadlines. You appreciate a steady income so you’re more likely to enjoy working for an established corporation rather than starting up your own business from scratch. Either way, once you get into a managerial role, you’re going to be amazing boss. And bonus points if your job has anything to do with creativity as you have so many ideas. Best Jobs: Singer, Interior Designer, Manager, Art Gallery Director
3/12Gemini
You’re probably the one who jumps at the chance to do the research portion of group projects. That’s because curiosity is one of Gemini’s personality traits. And maybe your curiosity is to thank for always being on the pulse of what’s trendy and what people are talking about. Besides helping you be a great conversationalist, that trait is also going to come in handy when you’re making a name for yourself in your career. You’re a people-person, so look for a job that lets you interact with others as much as possible. Best Jobs: Athlete, Documentary Filmmaker, Journalist, Consultant
4/12Cancer
Do your friends joke that you’re the mom of your squad? That’s probably thanks to your Cancer traits. You tend to create a happy family vibe with whomever you’re with — and that includes coworkers and people you’re working for. A perfect job for you would be something that allows you to nurture others. You’re also happy being at home, so a freelance position could be calling your name. Best Jobs: Author, Hospitality Industry, Teacher, Social Worker
5/12Leo
Ever catch others following your lead? Yeah, that’s a natural Leo trait, and it’s going to help you succeed when it comes to your career. Thanks to your charming personality and ability to convince others to see things your way, you’re going to excel at being a leader. But here’s the caveat: you need to believe in what you’re selling in order to continue being happy and successful in your job. Helping others is one of your biggest passions, so try and merge the two into one if you can. Best Jobs: Actor, Nonprofit Advocate, Lawyer, Politician
6/12Virgo
Oh, hey there, smartie! You’re a true academic — a planner, a strategist, sometimes even a perfectionist. Your attention to detail is going to help you in any career, but especially ones that require a worker to be on top of their game all the time. Virgos should choose a job that lets you put your impeccable skills to use, as well as one that will truly benefit from your amazing ability to be the first to know things. Best Jobs: Social Media Manager, Accountant, Journalist, Detective
7/12Libra
There’s a reason why your symbol is the scale, Libra. You’re great at looking at both sides in every story and you try to find balance in everything. There are specific careers out there that could benefit from those traits. You should also look for a job that puts you with people as you’re an awesome team player and interact well with others, even if it’s just at a networking event for your company. One other thing to keep in mind when choosing a career: Libras have great taste and appreciate beautiful things, so try to incorporate that into a job if you can. Best Jobs: Judge, Journalist, Architect, Critic
8/12Scorpio
You’re probably the one your friends look to when it’s time to split the bill. That’s because Scorpios have awesome money skills. Thanks to your ability to strive under pressure and amazing intuition, you’re also great at intense jobs that need someone who can think fast on their feet. No matter what you do though, you’re destined for a power position. Best Jobs: Banker, Psychologist, Surgeon, Lawyer
9/12Sagittarius
Your bohemian spirit makes you a perfect candidate for a creative and flexible career. The biggest question you have to ask yourself when deciding on a job is, “Will I love it?” You’ll not only want to feel passionate for the subject matter, but you’ll also want to learn new things along the way (meaning it’s probably best to say “no thanks” to a stagnant desk job where you’ll be doing the same thing day in, day out.) Best Jobs: Entrepreneur, Travel Photographer, Magazine Editor, Book Publisher
10/12Capricorn
Your ambition and work ethic are two of your greatest strengths when it comes to your career, Capricorn. Another thing you’re great at is attention to the details — whether you're being precise with numbers or shapes or formulas, you’ll excel at a job that allows you to show off your skills. And your boss will love you since you’ll make it your mission to get it right the first time. Best Jobs: Architect, Manager, IT Professional, Scientist
11/12Aquarius
You’re compassionate and also have a powerful voice (makes sense that you share a sign with Oprah!). Find a job where you can motivate others with your energetic personality and leadership skills. You’re also great when it comes to solving problems, whether the solution is in the small details or a big idea. Best Jobs: Entrepreneur, Sales, Coach, Aviator
12/12Pisces
You’ve got a naturally warm personality, Pisces, and that’s going to work to your advantage when it comes to your career — no matter what you’re doing. But if you’re looking for jobs that go along with your sign, seek out ones that let you help others. You’ll feel more fulfilled. You’ve also got a big imagination and super creative ideas, so something in the arts would also be a career win for you. Best Jobs: Photographer, Fashion Designer, Doctor, Talent Agent
