What can astrology tell us about our career choices?
Whether we are searching for the best career to go into, considering changing careers, or making a decision on which path to take within a current career, astrology can help us understand our motivation, make informed decisions and take informed actions.
Careers through the signs.
Aries
The Aries personality is assertive and energetic, which fits in well with career fields that require a sense of self-confidence and willpower. Competitive by nature, the Aries personality needs to be challenged, and to be recognized. Active careers would do well here … fire fighter, police officer, or anything to do with sports or the outdoors.
Your success comes from your ability to define your goals, and then working with focus and intent to achieve them.
Taurus
The Taurus personality is attracted to careers dealing with finances in all of its various forms. Attractive careers for you include real estate, or financial broker or advisor. If you lean towards your more aesthetic side, you may be attracted to the fields of interior design, jewelry or antiques … you definitely have fine taste! Any field in which you act as a consultant would be a good field for you, with your sense of where to put finances to create the best environment possible. Long term positions, where you can apply your logical, clear thinking are idea (you do tend not to like change!).
Your success comes, in part, because you have patience, and you are fairly objective in making decisions and taking actions. You know the balance between work and play, and do not easily lose focus.
Gemini
The Gemini personality is one that deals well with intellectual focus, and is drawn to careers dealing with gathering, processing and sharing information. You are the communicator of the Zodiac! You have an interest in almost everything and everyone, and generally know all about what is going on around you. Teaching, journalism or writing would make excellent professions for you. Wherever you work you need intellectual freedom. A conventional or rigid work environment will see you resigning post haste!
Your success comes in large part because of your ability to know what is going on around you, and your ability to think and act quickly. Also … you have everyone’s best interest at heart.
Cancer
Compassionate, home-loving Cancer will do well in the “helping” professions. Your great heart and ability to communicate will serve you well here.

In the business world, public relations is an option.
Your success comes from making best use of your intuitive nature, and your imagination. You have the ability to create a working environment that people feel safe in.
Leo
Your sense of self-confidence and your creative nature will serve you well in the career world. Of utmost importance here is that you are surrounded y people that acknowledge you for the work that you do, as you crave attention! You are someone that needs to be in front of the lights, where you can be both seen and heard. The entertainment industry would make for an ideal work environment. If you choose to go into the business world, you need to aim for corporate positions, where you can have some influence, see and be seen. Professions that are project oriented, so that you are moving from one thing to another, will also serve you well.
Your success comes from your ability to make a memorable first impression on people, your charisma once you have their attention, and your sense of loyalty.
Virgo
One of your strongest attributes is the systematic manner in which you approach your work. You are detail oriented, and love to analyze things to death!

Any field that requires strict attention to detail … such as engineering, or event he field of medicine, will be satisfying for you.
Your success comes from your logical approach to any problem, your patience and dedication, and your ability to stick with a project through to the end.

Scorpio
The Scorpio personality is quite a strong one, with a “need to know” about anything and everything. You love complex issues, and you love making sense of things. Spirituality and
medicine are fields that might interest you, as well as the fields of chemistry, any type of detective work, or even the field of politics (as a political activist).
Your success comes from your intense willpower, and your physical endurance. You also tend to be pretty resourceful!
Sagittarius
The Sagittarius personality is one of a visionary that seeks truth. They are open minded, and very interested in the well being of those around them, and in the mental realm of ideas. An overriding factor here is their need for personal freedom. Working in other countries, work that requires travel, or work related to a specific “cause” would attract the Sagittarius personality.

Capricorn
The Capricorn personality is one that continues on their path despite all obstacles. They are loyal, and they will put in the work that needs to be done to succeed. They are literally the worker bees of the Zodiac. A Capricorn personality is also one that believes in themselves, and their ability to get things done. In whatever field they choose to work in, they need to be at the top … they need to be the person making sure that the show is run correctly. A position where they can work independently, as well as a position that is seen as long term, is what a Capricorn personality needs. Conservative occupations that offer a great deal of security is what the Capricorn personality will do well in.
Your success comes from your loyalty, from your attention to detail, from your endless patience and sense of commitment.
Aquarius
The Aquarian personality is one that likes taking new and unique approaches to life. Working outside of the rules never bothers you … you make up your own as you go along.
