Scorpios may seem silent and frigid, yet they are very perceptive. They're not book-smart, but their distinctive thinking helps them solve problems. Ryan Marquardt, astrologer and proprietor of Ryan's Astrology, says Scorpios are detective-like: Water indicators normally lead by three steps.
"They are definitely big-picture people, [and] they have a well of wisdom they draw from to come up with ingenious solutions."
Aquarius, the oddest sign, thinks differently. Their quirky inclinations may not make them seem smart, yet they're frequently ahead of the herd. Air signs are quick thinkers and may outwit others.
Virgos are smart and scrutinize everything. You want these guys on your side because of their unequaled problem-solving skills. Loftis thinks "it is great to have some Virgo vision to help solve problems or come up with creative solutions."
Aries, the first sign, are quick-thinking and swift. Their independence and confidence increase their intelligence.
Geminis are the smartest zodiac sign because they learn rapidly and move quickly. This air sign is continually learning and has a big mental arsenal.
