The 2 Zodiac Signs That Make Great Entrepreneurs (& One Who Basically Runs Corporate America)

If you’ve ever watched a single episode of Shark Tank, you know that entrepreneurship takes grit, originality and moxie to truly master. It’s not easy to put a small business or brand-new product on the market and get the masses to join the bandwagon. But it seems like there are some who are practically built for that hustle, while others thrive in a more conventional work life. This difference in personality may have something to do with the stars so, find out the two zodiac signs that make great entrepreneurs and one who basically runs corporate America.

Famous for their off-beat and eccentric ways, the water bearers are top of mind when we talk about entrepreneurship. As one of the most creative signs in the zodiac, not only are Aquarians original thinkers, but more often than not, they are the trendsetters. These humanitarians of the zodiac were probably the first to go vegan and try non-alcoholic wine long before it got on our radars. And because they’re the quintessential out-of-the-box thinkers, they’d rather forgo the confines of the 9-to-5 life in exchange for working for themselves because they need their full creative freedom. But just because they’re a little unconventional doesn’t mean they don’t have the means to really drive a super successful business. In addition to being highly innovative, Aquarians are also very analytical, so expect these air signs to be on top of every penny coming in and out of their little homemade organic soap shop.  

Charming, friendly and loquacious, Geminis make great entrepreneurs simply because they can sell water to a fish. Think of these air signs as that one vendor you frequent at the farmer’s market, not because their Gruyere is the best per se, but because they’re uber-friendly, and the service is always top-notch. Their mode of upselling is not pushy nor off-putting, no. They get to know their customers’ lifestyle habits through their gift of gab and introduce you to a delightfully silky and shareable Brie because they know you love hosting. (And yes, you always walk away with more artisanal cheese than you originally intended because they’re just that good).

Scorpios are—no surprises here—fierce and ferocious leaders, which makes them ideal candidates for the cutthroat world that can be corporate America. Ruled by Mars—the planet of action, power and movement—these water signs are the best individuals to have on your team if your company needs a new direction. Where most people are afraid to step on toes and hurt feelings, Scorpios don’t tippy-toe if there’s a bigger picture (and big money) at stake. They’re strong leaders who aren’t scared of delegating, making the necessary cuts and giving blunt feedback if it’s part of their job description. Those infamous plotting and scheming skills also allow them to seamlessly gauge and study the competition and create the perfect strategy to get a leg up.
