Explanation:
The Aquarius Personality: The Water Bearer (Jan 22 – Feb 21)
The personality of an Aquarius is characterized by the need for self-expression, creativity, and a sense of purpose. Aquarians have a natural curiosity about many things and are more than willing to use their far-reaching imaginations to feed that curiosity. Friends or colleagues of an Aquarius may find these unpredictable individuals to be warm and affectionate, though sometimes solitary, relentless in their pursuit of knowledge, and deeply inquisitive.
What Are the Best Career Paths for an Aquarius?
Although Aquarians are highly capable of many things, they are best suited for roles that require unconventional thinking. Aquarians embody many professional strengths, including critical thinking, social consciousness, and assertiveness.
However, the Aquarian personality has its drawbacks like other zodiacs. An Aquarius can lack focus, express apathy toward tasks that diverge from their interests, and insist on getting their way, even when that may not be beneficial for completing the task at hand. These qualities can cloud the Aquarian’s better judgment and stunt their professional growth.
However, positive Aquarian traits aid in professions in service, politics, and fine arts. These career paths allow the Aquarius to flourish in ways that are comfortable for them while encouraging them to amplify the best aspects of their personalities.
What Are Aquarians Like in the Workplace?
An Aquarius will feel at home in work environments that welcome the deep, abstract thought process that is natural to them, such as laboratories and museums. In these work environments, the Aquarius can jump at the chance of aiding a colleague or lightening the load of a manager; they naturally enjoy being helpful to others.
While their thoughtfulness and instinct to help can be great assets in the workplace, Aquarians also have some tendencies which create challenges in the workplace. Aquarians tend towards self-isolation. An Aquarius should remember that not everyone works this way, and that their colleagues will still be expecting communication from them. Disconnecting without notice can make an Aquarius a difficult coworker. Aquarians should inform their colleagues or managers about their desire for occasional solitary tasks during the workweek and explain how it improves their work, being both truthful and proactive in their attempt to overcome the challenge.
Along similar lines, another challenge that Aquarians are likely to face at work is having to adhere to a schedule instead of doing as they please when they please. Aquarians can become irritable when they cannot do what they want, and as we all know, work often includes doing things that are not aligned with things we like to do. Unfortunately, there is no magic fix for this, and Aquarians will have to learn how to fulfill work obligations that include fun and not-so-fun duties. Aquarians can overcome this workplace challenge by redefining what happiness looks like for them at work. The Aquarian may not find joy in fulfilling a task that they do not want to do, but may instead find happiness in getting the work hours they want (to schedule more of what they want to do in their personal time). Â If the Aquarius can learn to reciprocate what they want at work, they are likely to find greater enjoyment in their professional experiences.
