Are you ready to chart a course in your career in the light of this cosmic knowledge?

Using the Birth Chart to Gain Career Forecasting

So why are these particular houses, the 2nd, 6th, and 10th houses and the MC (Midheaven) so important in your career path? Because they each represent different aspects of your cosmic map, and together they paint the full picture of your potential in your professional life.

Analyzing these four important astrological factors can help you determine which career paths are best for you. Now, armed with this information, let's take a more detailed look at how to draw your own unique career map.

10th House

This house is known as the house of career, goals and reputation in society in the natal chart. The signs on this house and the planets within it provide valuable information about your public image, how you progress in your career, and generally what kind of professional you are.

The sign in the 10th house shows your approach to career goals and how you can achieve success in business life. For example:

If Aries is in the 10th house, you may be inclined to take on a leadership role, take initiative, and work in competitive fields. If you are a Libra, diplomacy and teamwork will be at the forefront for you, and you may be looking for a fair and balanced working environment.

Planets in the 10th house also influence how this house expresses its energy: If the Sun is here, you may be a natural leader and have a strong desire to achieve significant success in your career. If you have Mercury, you may be better suited to careers based on communication and information exchange, such as writing, teaching, or consulting.

Additionally, the position of the ruling planet of the 10th house and its angles with other planets can also give more in-depth information about your career. For example, if the ruling planet of the 10th house is in a difficult aspect (square, opposition), you may face some difficulties on your career path, but these difficulties can make you stronger and increase your ambition.

Midheaven (MC)

Midheaven, located on the cusp of the 10th house, represents how you are perceived in society, your professional image, and your highest career goals. In the context of business and career, the sign of the Midheaven and the planets located therein greatly influence the manner and potential for achieving success in business.

The sign of the Midheaven offers clues as to what traits will stand out in your career:

A Midheaven in Capricorn indicates a disciplined, structured and focused approach to career advancement. You can be successful in positions of authority and roles that require responsibility. A Midheaven in Leo, on the other hand, tends to shine in areas such as leadership, creativity, and performing arts. You may like to be in public and the center of attention.

Planets in the Midheaven make these career characteristics even more evident:

If the Moon is located here, the ability to connect emotionally with people plays an important role in your career. You can be successful in areas such as public service, healthcare and education. Positioning Mars here allows you to reflect your ambition and energy into your work. You may find success in competitive industries and positions that set challenging goals.

Although the Midheaven and the 10th House offer valuable insights on this subject, it is necessary to look at their relationships with other houses to see the whole picture. This way, you can see potential paths in your career more clearly. 

2nd House

The 2nd house is known as the house of personal values, material gains and financial security. The signs and planets located in this house determine your financial abilities and way of earning:

Your signs and planets here show you which approaches are suitable for gaining financial gain and creating value. For example, a 2nd house in Taurus may represent a patient and reliable approach to financial matters, while in Cancer it may indicate the search for emotional security and the use of material resources in a familial context.

Strong planets in the house (for example, Venus or Jupiter) carry positive signs for financial success and often indicate material well-being.

6th House

The 6th house governs work life, daily routines and health conditions. Astrological factors in this house can affect relationships in the work environment and productivity at work:

The signs here give clues about what the ideal working environment should be like. For example, a 6th house in Virgo may indicate a preference for attention to detail and an orderly and methodical work environment.

Planets in the 6th house (e.g. Mercury) determine how communication and analytical skills play a role in the workplace. If Mars is located here, you can display an energetic and challenging attitude at work.
