Does Your Job Fit Your Zodiac Sign

Does Your Job Fit Your Zodiac SignAstrology and Your CareerDoes Your Job Fit Your Zodiac SignHas your astrological sign ever impacted what career or jobs youve chosen? Or your job search? Maybe its worth a second look.As you may have heard, astronomers at the Minnesota Planetarium Society announced last week that the signs of the Zodiac are all wrong. They say our understanding of the Zodiac is off by about a month, meaning people have been identifying themselves with the wrong signs.With that news, I realized Ive been thrust into an astrological identity crisis. The horrorThe table below shows the societys alternate Zodiac and the Zodiac signs as weve known them.ALTERNATE ZODIACZODIAC AS WEVE KNOWN ITCapricornJan. 20 - Feb. 16Aquarius Jan. 20 - Feb. 18Aquarius Feb. 16 - March 11Pisces Feb. 19 - March 20Pisces March 11 - April 18widder March 21 - April 19Aries April 18- May 13Taurus April 20 - May 20Taurus May 13 - June 21Gemini May 21 - June 20Gemini June 21 - July 20Cancer June 21 - July 22Cancer July 20 - Aug. 10Leo July 23 - Aug. 22Leo Aug. 10 - Sept. 16Virgo Aug. 23 - Sept. 22Virgo Sept. 16 - Oct. 30Libra Sept. 23 - Oct. 22Libra Oct. 30 - Nov. 23Scorpio Oct. 23 - Nov. 21Scorpio Nov. 23-29Sagittarius Nov. 22 - Dec. 21Ophiuchus Nov. 29 - Dec. 17Capricorn Dec. 22 - Jan. 19Capricorn Dec. 17 - Jan. 20A week ago, I was clearly a Sagittarian, which, according to the web site Divine Caroline, means Im ethical, full of energy, and philosophical. Im also an excellent decision-maker and can be a fair and easygoing boss (if I were one). It also said some of the best jobs for Sagittarians are editor (Yes), public relations professional (can do), and coach (done that).But according to the alternate Zodiac, Im on the cusp of being either a Scorpio or an Ophiuchus, which is a 13th constellation the ancient Babylonians tossed from their calendar because they only wanted 12. (I guess they were easy to please.)According to Divine Caroline, Scorpios are described as intense ( ummm, no), and the best jobs for them are detective, lawyer, educator, scientist, surgeon, or physicist. Ophiuchus, meanwhile, represents a man wrestling a serpent. And where might they fit in the working world? As doctors of medicine or science. They also seek higher education and enlightenment.Well, I couldnt take the idea of attending law school or medical school, and the only thing that resonates with me is educator, since I teach part-time.I remain clearly a Sagittarian, and astrologers say that despite what the Minnesota group says, I will always be one because nothing changes for those who follow the Tropical Zodiac (as most of us Westerners do), because its fixed to seasons.
