Looking for a little career inspiration? If "What Color is Your Parachute?" hasn't worked for you, try "What's your sign?" Take a look at the jobs that might suit an ambitious Aries, a trustworthy Taurus, or a glamorous Gemini.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Grabbing Life by the Horns

As an Aries, you may be inventive, confident, and very ambitious. Because of your creativity, a job in journalism, advertising, or public relations may be a good fit. People around you are inspired by your energetic nature and may even look to you for leadership--though you can be impatient at times. Earning a degree in one of these subjects can allow you to use your creativity and be an innovator in your field. A career in one of these industries can allow you to work independently or as a team leader.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20): Bullish on the Future

Practical, dependable, and patient may describe you if you're a Taurus. If you say you're going to complete a task, you do it, which makes it easy for people to trust you. Because you're methodical and task-focused, you may be good at finance and accounting jobs. Even better, these are degrees you can earn online--an excellent method for disciplined Taureans. If you're also creative, a career in architecture can allow you to dream up ideas and execute them in a very detailed and methodical manner.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Double Your Career Fun

A career in travel or hospitality allows Geminis to satisfy their quest for new and exciting experiences. You're not afraid to travel the world, and may be interested in trying things like mountain climbing, whitewater rafting, or traveling in a foreign country. You are intellectually curious and enjoy learning about different people and places. Your energy, enthusiasm, and optimism make you a good candidate for a career working with the public in the travel and tourism industry. Because Geminis may be intellectually curious, a job in academia may also be a good fit, because of the potential for ongoing learning experiences and research.

So what do you do with your guidance from the stars? Evaluate your character traits, strengths, and interests to determine the degree that's right for you.
