CAPRICORN
22nd December to 19th January
AQUARIUS
20th January to 18th February
This is the year you might find you’re working less independently and instead are coming together with your work colleagues. This is something you might
not be used to, but you’ll definitely see the benefits of working together as a team. Also don’t be afraid to dream big this year. No feat is too high or
unreachable. Plan your goals and you’ll be sure to reach them. You don’t have a resolution to stick to this year, as you learn easily from past mistakes, and know that they never last, no matter how motivated you are to make them work. Instead, you give yourselves smaller goals that are much more manageable that you know you will stick to. Every piece of work you do is thought about with precision. You don’t often make mistakes as you’re a logical person who thinks about everything in detail. You’re also a fast learner, so you need to keep your brain working by learning new things all the time. You adapt easily to any working environment so are happy to let colleagues change the temperature or chat often. You work best when listening to music.
Your job normally involves a lot of creativity which suits you down to a tee, but in 2018 you might find yourself having to jump out of your comfort zone. Less creative tasks are coming your way that might require logical thinking instead. This will only increase your skill set and knowledge within your work environment, so don’t be afraid of this change.
You would have made a New Year’s Resolution if you could have decided on one. Unfortunately your resolutions list was getting longer and longer, making it impossible for you to decide on just one.
You’re adaptable when working, meaning any environment suits: a loud coffee shop, a quite library, a cold office or a warm classroom. Wherever you are, you make the most of it and can work just as well if you’re out of your normal environment. Your creativity means that you’re a messy person. Your desk might look untidy to other people, but you know exactly where everything is.
