We talk a lot about how your zodiac sign describes us, but does it go for intelligence too? We finally sat down and found out which zodiac sign is the smartest.
Studies have shown a direct correlation between IQ and income. It means that the smarter you are, the more you are likely to earn.
Although we can learn more through study, how intelligent we are is something that is pretty much fixed. No matter how hard we study, our IQ levels aren’t going to change that much.
But is how smart we are completely random? Is it based on our genes? Or is it something to do with our zodiac sign?
Read on as we examine what your sign says about your intelligence, and which zodiac sign is the smartest.
Cancer
Cancer is a more emotional than intelligent sign.
Rather than using their intelligence for their own gain, they tend to devote themselves to helping others. This makes them ideal for careers such as nursing or other healthcare roles.
A famous Cancerian is a perfect example of this: Lady Diana.
Leo
Leo might not be the most naturally intelligent, but they possess strong leadership qualities.
In terms of overall smarts, they don’t rank as high as some of the other zodiac signs. But they are very quick thinking: they won’t over-analyze a situation but will come to a decision and stick to it. And that decision most often turns out to be the right one.
A perfect example of this is the well-known Leo, Barack Obama.
Virgo
Virgo isn’t the most intelligent of the zodiac signs.
But what they lack in raw brain power they more than make up for with hard work. They tend to focus on every minute detail and be very analytical, even when reading their daily horoscope.
And Virgo has one other thing that definitely works in their favor. Studies have shown that children born in September do better at school on average, as they are the most mature students in their class.
Libra
If you’re a Libra then you’re probably more intelligent than average.
Libra tends to take a long time to come to a decision. But this is partly because they are critical thinkers who are able to use logical arguments to defend their point of view.
Libras are also quite skeptical and prefer to make their own analysis and come to their own conclusions rather than relying on those of others.
Scorpio
Scorpio may not have the highest IQ of all of the zodiac signs.
But whilst they don’t have the analytical skills of some others, they are one of the most perceptive of all the zodiac signs. They are able to accurately assess situations and easily understand them.
This makes Scorpios ideal candidates for working as psychologists or therapists.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius is known for being one of the wittiest Zodiac signs.
And fast, clever wit requires a high level of intelligence. They are also great problem solvers and are able to improvise to find solutions that aren’t always obvious to others.
Sagittarius is quite restless and it may be this restless mind that allows them to find the right solution or the right witty line.
Capricorn
Capricorn is intelligent, but often prone to overthinking.
This may be due in part to their high levels of empathy. They see a lot of what is going on around them and will worry about the impact of these events on others.
But their intelligence and empathy are a strong combination in the business world. You will often find a Capricorn in positions of leadership.
Aquarius
Aquarius is highly creative and can handle pretty much anything thrown at them.
Whatever endeavors they put their mind to, they will usually thrive at. They are the ultimate jack-of-all-trades and are always seeking new challenges or different intellectual stimulation.
They are also very good at honing in on the crux of any matter without being distracted by unimportant details.
Pisces
Pisces is more skilled in emotional intelligence.
They have a strong intuitive sense combined with a high level of imagination. They can be self-critical but their emotional side can also make them come across as dreamers.
When channeled correctly, these attributes can make them highly artistic.
Aries
Aries is a very intelligent zodiac sign.
They are quick thinkers who don’t tend to dwell on issues. Instead, they come to a decision and stick to it. This is in part due to their stubborn nature.
They also have incredible stamina and will not let up until they achieved their goal. Their drive and ambition mixed with their intelligence can be a powerful combination.
Taurus
Taurus is a slow thinker; they will take their time over a decision.
But this does not mean that they are lacking in intelligence. They are shrewd and have a powerful sense of intuition. But they prefer to deliberate over decisions rather than rush to judgment.
Much like Aries, they have a stubborn streak so there is no point trying to force them to make up their mind until they are ready. But when they do finally make decisions they can have far-reaching consequences. A perfect example of this is the famous Taurus, Mark Zuckerberg.
Gemini
Gemini is the most intelligent of all the zodiac signs.
A Gemini will not only be able to understand complex subjects but will also be able to articulate them clearly to others. Their brains work incredibly fast and this allows them to find solutions much quicker than most.
And if you needed any further proof that Gemini is the smartest of the all the zodiac signs, then it is backed up by science. For of all the zodiac signs, Gemini has the largest number of Nobel Prize winners, including Niels Bohr, Thomas Mann, and Henry Kissinger.
