The thinkers of the zodiac are intelligent, creative, inventive or simpler put, visionaries.

These eccentrics are ahead of time and are fantastic problem solvers. The best career paths for Aquarians are those that provide them with the space and freedom they seek. Engineer, scientist, inventor, app developer, astronomer and artist are ideal careers for the ever-analyzing Aquarians. Also, they are humanitarians at core, so they can do well in jobs as social workers, therapists or counselors.

Pisces

Pisces representatives are least money motivated of all the zodiac, as they are guided by their feelings and artistic sensibilities. Of course, they won’t work for free nor will they choose just any sort of a career for themselves. Pisces are generous, sensitive, intelligent and emphatic people and they cannot see themselves in stressful working environments with a lot of pressure. They can thrive in music, dance and all sorts of arts. These born artists can do wonders whether it be on a canvas, an instrument, clothing or interior design. Since Pisceans are capable of picking up on other people’s emotions and moods and are natural humanitarians, they can do well in jobs that require helping others.
