Enhance Your Resume With Astrology

If you just aren’t happy in your job and you are beginning a search for a new position, your resumé is a powerful vehicle for getting you that all-important initial interview. Astrology can help you to identify the best things to say about yourself, aside from the details of education, experience, publications, and professional memberships.

When you say, “I am the right person for this job because…” you want the rest of the sentence to reflect your individuality. This article presents ways to identify key personality traits to emphasize when applying for a job. Your Sun-Sign describes your most positive career assets quickly and clearly.

Life is not about changing our habits to satisfy the next employer. It is about choosing to emphasize one set of behaviors over another throughout our lives. Out of this, character is born. Describing your character traits to a stranger is risky, but it will put you in a class by yourself in that pile of resumés in the Human Resources department of your favorite job prospect. It also allows you to state the one thing that is most important to you in a job. That way, the prospective employer knows at least one of your requirements from the outset.

Sun-Signs indicate the primary psychological type. There is a proliferation of literature about Carl Jung’s typology and there are tests to determine which one is your primary type. But you really don’t need tests, as astrology provides a simple method for figuring this out.

The table of signs, elements, and psychological types that accompanies this article is really all you need.

The elements work in pairs: Air and Water (Thinking vs. Feeling) form one pair of opposites; Earth and Fire (Sensation vs. Intuition) form the other pair. When one type is dominant, the paired function is relatively absent from consciousness. So if you are an intuitive type, the less conscious component of your personality is sensation, and vice versa. We are all familiar with the thinking type who can barely admit to having any feelings!

DO YOU RECOGNIZE YOURSELF?
