"I’m a firm believer that it’s never too late to try something new, especially when it comes to your career. While changing careers isn’t easy, no matter what age you are or what career stage you’re at, it’s completely normal to want something new. In fact, it’s probably healthy to reevaluate your career once in a while, considering how much time you dedicate to work.

The characteristics we embody through our zodiac signs can help light the way for us when we’re questioning our future in this way. Evaluating our careers tends to happen when we hit big milestones in our lives or experience change, whether that’s through grief, new or ending relationships, or simply because of the passage of time. However, there are a few zodiac signs that feel that restlessness more than others. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a career you don’t love, or have wondered if you’ll ever make the jump to change your career, you might be one of these signs. Here are the zodiac signs that are most likely to have a career change down the road, and how each of these signs can thrive during the shift.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius signs are constantly seeking new adventures. Their relentless quest to learn and gain more wisdom is admirable and leads to the discovery of many new passions at every stage of life. When it comes to careers, Sagittariuses are skilled at taking on several pursuits at once. This might mean a day job paired with a side hustle, or freelancing in a variety of areas. The most important things for a Sagittarius to have in their career are variety and intellectual stimulation. When a Sag doesn’t feel passionate about their career, that is the first sign that it’s time to try something new.
Why later in life
Because Sagittarius signs are always gaining more wisdom, every year is the dawn of a new way of thinking about their lives. As a sign that is constantly evolving and thrives in change, it’s more likely that big changes won’t just be for the beginning stages of a Sagittarius’ career. In fact, Sagittarius signs are probably more equipped to handle a big career change in later decades than in early ones. The wealth of knowledge and confidence they will have gained on their journey in life will guide them to make good decisions.
How Sagittarius signs should approach changing careers
Instead of thinking of a new career as yet another path to go down without direction, think of it as a purposeful move to add more meaning to your life. Sometimes Sagittarius signs can be a little reckless, so it’s important to balance this tendency for impulsivity with a solid game plan. Living in the area between reckless and prepared is the perfect place for a Sagittarius to be. Don’t be afraid to pursue a couple of passions at once until you find your next great career adventure.
Pisces
Pisces signs are always dreaming about the next thing. They’re able to see the big picture, and all the beautiful outcomes that could potentially happen in their lives. The tricky thing is that Pisces are constantly living in the division between their fantasy of what could be and their current reality. It’s easy to see the possibilities, but it’s not as easy to manifest them. In the workplace, Pisceans are incredibly intuitive and almost psychic when it comes to reading other employees. Pisces signs are also probably the first signs to know in their gut when it’s time to make a career change. They’re able to recognize their own ability to achieve these new goals.
Why later in life
Pisces dreamers tend to let their dreams simmer for much longer than other signs do, and that’s completely okay. It may take Pisces more years than others to figure out what they really want to do. Or, on the flip side, they may have known all along what career they wanted, and just needed time to be ready to pursue it. Because of their sensitive nature and near ability to see into the future, Pisces are open to more change later in life, knowing it will work out if they put their heart into it.
How Pisces signs should approach changing careers
Pisces tend to go after their dreams, but believing and making them a reality aren’t always the same thing. If you’re a Pisces and dream of a new career, then the next step is to plan actionable goals. Take smaller steps first to make your days brighter in the meantime. Then, make sure you’re clear about your experience and potential areas of improvement. While your compassionate nature will often lead you to hype up your friends and family, now is the time to sing your own praises.
Gemini
Geminis have a million paths they could take in their lives, and they want to try every single one of them. This is the beautiful thing about this sign—they are never boring and only bored if they’re stuck in one place for too long. A steady career for an entire lifetime may seem absolutely untenable to a Gemini. Like the air signs that they are, Geminis are able to float into any space and thrive, adapting to new careers easily. They also can be great teammates who make the workplace fun and lively with their endless wit and playfulness.
Why later in life
Gemini signs are not the type to be concerned with what other people think, so the thought of pursuing a new career will likely not scare them. However, the reason Geminis might wait until later in life to make a career change is because they’ve just been so busy with all the many pursuits and interests they’ve already discovered, they haven’t had time to settle into any one path. It’s more than okay to want to pursue many ventures, and Geminis tend to embrace this at every age.
How Geminis should approach changing careers
For Gemini signs who change careers later in life, it’s important to tap into your strengths. Curiosity, which Geminis are known for, will help you discover your own strengths and weaknesses. What Geminis should watch out for is making any impulsive decisions brought on by restlessness or anxiety. If you do move into a new career, try to settle into it for a while as a side job or trial run. This will help you really understand why you wanted to pursue it in the first place, and eventually lead you to an environment you’re sure to thrive in.
