The Thoughtful Creator
Taurus creatives are very practical in nature and are reliable in a work setting. Don’t be afraid to take on new and challenging projects. Obviously, no one is more stubborn, yet capable of moving the immovable object. This year, use your natural ambition and creative independence to speak for the team.

Virgo (Aug 21-Sept 20)

Virgo creatives are smart, but depend on intuition more than any other zodiac sign on the horoscope. When something doesn’t feel right, it’s typically a Virgo who brings it to the table. The challenge is in learning to trust this intuition enough to allow it to further your career goals.

Explore your inner performer and use this renewed energy to fight stress and tension that can diminish creativity.

As the most determined of all on the horoscope, Capricorn creatives never cease to amaze their peers.
