Your Perfect Side Hustle, According to the Zodiac

Let’s face it, even if your job wasn’t completely negated because of the lock down, we could all use some extra cash now and again. And while that might be a little more challenging now that we’re mainly stuck indoors, there’s nothing that says you can’t make money using just your laptop and your wits. Take a look at our perfect side-hustle suggestions based on your zodiac sign!

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Always the leader of the pack; always itching to try something new. The quarantine and social isolation might be harder on you than just about anyone.

So why not put that energy to work by being the first to spot and jump on a deal? You could be perfect at starting an online re-selling business through sites like eBay, Poshmark, or Mercari.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) 

Ah, Taurus. You cuddly little homebody. You’ve been training for this your entire life, haven’t you?

Use the energy you’d typically be spending on feeding and pampering your friends and family by teaching online cooking classes from your home. Bonus, it’ll give the public a chance to glimpse that beautiful and oh-so-cozy kitchen of yours.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) 

As quick-witted as they come, you thrive on social connections, Gemini. Don’t despair, all is not lost in this new social-distancing landscape of ours!

Keep that curious mind sharp by starting a podcast on a favorite subject. It’s the perfect way to constantly meet new people while still maintaining a safe lifestyle.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) 

While staying cozy at home with your nearest and dearest certainly isn’t the worst thing in the world, we know your tender heart still longs to take care of others.

No need to miss out on that connection. So many kids are navigating online school for the first time, there are bound to be needs for online tutors. Why not lend a helping hand?

Leo (July 23-August 22) 

What does one who longs to entertain do when there’s no one around to entertain? Get creative!

The world of voice acting can be incredibly lucrative, and what better time to dip your toe into a new avenue of the entertainment industry? All you need is some time, some determination, and a good mic.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) 

With your eagle eye attention to detail and your endless patience for getting something right, a gig as an online editor and/or proofreader could be amazing for you.

You know you already get off on catching typos online. Why not figure out a way to get paid for it?

Libra (September 23-October 22) 

Libra, you were put on this earth with an amazing eye for beauty. Share it with us!

Put your creativity and talents to good use by selling your art or handmade crafts on Etsy. We hear there’s a pretty high demand for post-apocalyptic chic cloth masks coming just around the corner.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) 

You’ve never been one for the spotlight, Scorpio. You’re someone who’d rather work behind the scenes, unearthing hidden gems of knowledge (and everybody’s secrets) along the way.

Why not use that discerning mind for the betterment of our current society? You’d make an amazing investigative blogger or online reviewer.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) 

Are you going stir-crazy yet, Sag? Jet-setting around the world and seeking out new adventures might not be completely possible right now, but it doesn’t mean you have to stay hidden under a rock.

Have you thought of being an online ambassador for one of your favorite brands? Put that attention-grabbing style and up-for-anything spirit to good use!

Capricorn (December 23-January 20) 

You’ve been helping people out with numbers ever since you learned what they were, haven’t you Capricorn? From math homework to household budgets to tax returns and everything in between, your keen eye for figures has saved people’s behinds time and time again. Maybe it’s time to make the leap into freelance financial planning.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) 

Things are feeling uncertain for a lot of us. But you, Aquarius, know these changes have been a long time coming.

In fact, maybe people will start seeing the world from your point of view, now—something you’ve been working toward for ages. Now’s your chance to launch that worldview-shattering online course that’s been brewing inside of you.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) 

Sweet, sensitive Pisces. You need art, beauty, and love more than ever now—and you want to share those very things with the world.

Think about putting together some online art or music tutorials, so you can share a bit of joy—and yourself—with others in this isolating time.
