25 STEPS TO CHOOSING YOUR VOCATION ASTROLOGICALLY

1) Planets in the tenth house. A planet nearest to the MC takes precedence over those further away, though this general rule is subject to a number of modifications that will be explained in its proper place

2) A planet in the ninth house, but 5 degrees of the tenth, has both, a tenth house and ninth house influence and should be treated as if it were in the tenth. A planet in the eleventh house as well (5 degrees of the tenth) also has the influence of the tenth; but this is weaker than those in the 10th or ninth cusp. Examine the sign on the cusp, its ruler, the sign and house in which the ruler is found.

3) Next, look for any planet that exactly aspects the MC. If none, then the planet or planets configure with it by platic (inexact) aspect, if within 5 degrees of orb.

4) If Saturn, has not already appeared in any of the above 3 conditions, he should next be considered as he is the normal planetary ruler of the 10th house (MC). Examine the sign he is in.

5) If Capricorn has not similarly appeared, this sign is now up for consideration, together with any planets occupied in it. Capricorn being the normal 10th house sign ofcource.

This exhausts the 10th house factors. We must now look to the 6th house and its affiliates. The sixth house governs employment, while the tenth is considered the nature of the occupation. In the horoscope of an employee the sixth house represents his employers (and vice-versa)
"A good servant makes a good master... just as ... A good master makes a good servant."
The above saying is literally true astrologically. The same factors largely, but not wholely, govern both.

6) Take the planets in the sixth (and the fifth and seventh within a 5 degree orb of the sixth) in the same way as described in step "1)"

7) Take the sign on the cusp of sixth as in step "2)". However, planets aspectomg the cusp of the sixth as in rule "3)" have no influence and should be disregarded.

8) If Mercury has not appeared in the above,then he is up for consideration as he is the normal ruler of the sixth. Follow step "4)", substituting Mercury for Saturn.

9) The sign Virgo rules employment as Capricorn rules occupation. Follow step "5)" substituting Virgo for Capricorn

Next on the adgenda is the Second House, which has to do with Money, Gain, Profit and Loss.

10) Follow step "1)", substituting Second for Tenth house.

11) Follow step "2)" similarly . Step "3)" is ignored in the case of the second house.

12) If Venus has not appeared yet, she should now be taken into consideration as she is the normal ruler of the second house. Follow step "4)" substituting Venus for Saturn.

13) Follow step "5)" substituting Taurus for Capricorn.

14) Now carefully note down all the aspects between the planets concerned with the 10th, 6th and 2nd house; also the planets in Capricorn, Virgo, and Taurus; finally between, Saturn, Mercury, and Venus.

15) Examine the planet rising closest to the Ascendant.

16) Locate the ''Best Planet" in the horoscope. (i.e. the planet that is most strongly placed by Sign, House, Elevation. With more favorable and less adverse aspects)

Now to see whether we're boss or executive material

17) Examine the Constitutional groupings of the planets (Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable). For greatest success in one's own enterprise, there should be a preponderance of the planets and angles in Cardinal Signs.

18) How many planets are "Accidentally Dignified"? (in the 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th house)

19) For high executive postions in employ of others, but not calling for "Ultimate Decisions", there should be a preponderance of the planets in Fixed Signs.

20) In connection with step "19)", for best results, Succedent houses should be well occupied. How many planets are Succedentaly placed? (2nd, 5th, 8th or 11th house)

Now we takle the scope of Partnerships.

21) Planets in the seventh house. Follow step "1)"

22) Sign on the cusp of the seventh. Follow step "2)" and disregard step "3"

23) Venus rules the seventh as well. As she has already been analyzed in relation to the Second house, note her position and aspects again for seventh house consideration.

24) Follow step "5)" substituting Libra for Capricorn

25) To choose a partner, analyze both horoscopes in synastry as well as in composite matches.

There you all go.

Later on i shall be giving a list of Occupations ruled by Planets and Signs respectively... i'm just a bit tired of typing... so make your notes.. and lets see what you all get... then when you've made all the notes..i'll give you the rulerships

Ciao for now

Oh.. Almost forgot the list of Sign Rulership

OCCUPATION RULERSHIPS

SIGNS


ARIES

KEYWORD: Leadership

VOCATIONS: Any occupation ruled by Mars, which permits of advancement and promotion. Those with poor chance of advance should be avoided. Those arent for the impatient Aries, unless a good quota of fixed signs are prominent in the chart, or Capricorn and Virgo are strong in the chart.

The Mars Ruled Occupations that Aries should avoid:- Assayers, Surgeons, Dentists, Carpenters, Lumberjacks, Mechanics.

Non Mars Ruled Occupations for Aries:- Hat and Cap makers and Dealers, Hairdressers (make sure venus is strong here).

TAURUS

KEYWORD: Doggedness.

VOCATIONS: Those occupations of Venus having to do with Money; also Throat specialists (if regular medical signifactors strong). Boxer, Soldier, Policemen, Treasurer.


GEMINI

KEYWORD: Versatality

VOCATIONS: Any ruled by Mercury not requiring too much detail and especially those having to do with transportation. Gemini cannot stomach drudgery the way Virgo can. Thus Virgo makes better office help than Gemini, but Gemini is a better salesman. Gemini is more curious about things, whereas Virgo is about people. Gemini is the better speaker and superficially the better writer, but Virgo is more thorough in both cases. Virgo's facts are more likely to be right than those of Gemini.

Mercury Ruled Occupations NOT for Gemini: Teachers, Bee Keepers, Dietitians, File Clerks, Retail Grocers, Governesses, Nerve Specialists, Storekeepers, Doctors, Healers.


CANCER

KEYWORD: Domesticity

VOCATION: Those of Moon insofar as they have to do with the Cancerian Keyword. Thus Nursing would obviously be a Cancerian Occupation, but a Traveling Salesman, Fisherman, or Tavern Owner would hardly come under that designation.

Of itself, Cancer is greatley concerned with Real Estate and Home Ownership, though for best results, Saturn should also be strong. Home Appliances, House Furnishing and the like are within its guardianship.


LEO

KEYWORD: Greatness.

VOCATIONS: Same as the Sun with no exceptions.


VIRGO

KEYWORD: Detail

VOCATIONS: Everything ruled by Mercury, not exclusive to Gemini. Virgo has a special relationship to service, healing, pets and all mental work involving much detail.


LIBRA

KEYWORD: Balance

VOCATIONS: All of Venus not having to do with finance

Non Venusian Ruled Occupations: Judges, Diplomats, Lawyers (look for strong Jupiter)


SCORPIO

KEYWORD: Strength

VOCATION: All ruled by Mars and Pluto except things made by fire. Scorpio is strong in occupations requiring great patience - where Aries is weak.


SAGITTARIUS

KEYWORD: Publicity

VOCATIONS: Occupations of Jupiter, especially to do with Publicity.

Avoidable Jupitarian Occupations: Woolen Merchants, Wholesale Grocers, Aldermen, Appraisers, Bond Salesmen, Cashiers, Capitalists, Pursers, Financiers, Chiropodists, Shoe Manufacturers and Dealers, Shoe Workers.


CAPRICORN

KEYWORD: Hard Work

VOCATIONS: Occupations of Saturn, except Priests, Monks, Nuns, Plumbers. Capricorn is the occupational sign itself. It is the sign of business as such and the distinctive mark of the business man. Capricorn excels in those executive positions requiring patience as Virgo excels similarly in subordinate posts calling for the same quality.


AQUARIUS

KEYWORD: The Up-To-Date

VOCATIONS: All of Uranus... No exceptions. As well as positions which require a friendly personality and skill in meeting the public. Aquarius does rule friends.


PISCES

KEYWORD: Solitude

VOCATIONS: All vocations of Neptune without exceptions, and those of Jupiter (especially those Sagittarius isnt apt to do). Also occupations of Solitude such as... Monks, Nuns, Prison Guards, Wardens; and those connected with large institutions such as Hospitals, Sanitariums, Museums, Libraries etc... Clubs, Organizations, Secret Societies come under Pisces rulerships, and any occupation connected with these is indicated by Pisces as a vocational sign. If Venus is strong Pisces id often concerned with musical or acting talent.


I hope this helps you all find your true callings in life

Love and Light

Although my sun is in Cancer, financially oriented, I was never that ambitious. I'm poor and comfortable this way.

I just did this whole thing, but the instructions really don't formulate the pieces into a coherent direction. I've got all this stuff written down from each step, but there's no step to condense it.

Hey peace, I know tons of Virgos who are academics (writing their PhD's and the like) - seems like a very suitable profession for them!

I´m quite new to this site and must say that I love it!
Thank you Divine Goddess for all that info.
What confuses me is how to combine all those aspects. For example, my case:

-MC and tenth house in Taurus (its ruler Venus in Gemini in the 11th house square saturn in second and opposite neptune in the 5th)
-Mars in Taurus in the tenth house sextile mercury in the first and ascendant
-Virgo on the cusp of the second house (its ruler mercury in cancer in the first house conjunct ascendant in cancer)
-Saturn in virgo in the second house
-Saggitarius on the cusp of the sixth house (its ruler jupiter in leo in the first house)
-Uranus in scorpio opposition MC

Apart from these aspects I have a strong 12th house (sun and moon) and my dominant planet is the moon and dominant sign is cancer.
Does all this mean I could be a banker, an artist, a top executive, a sportsperson, a writer, a spiritual guide, an astrologist, a monk or a physician? How do I know what the strongest aspect is influencing my vocation?
Thanks a lot!

Hello All,

Obviously i have sort of abandonned this topic, however, I shall give some more information regarding how to study the chart:-


Lets re-cap what we learnt earlier.


The 10th house rules occupation, employers, fame, honor, and power; and the 6th, service, inferiors, employees, occupations followed through necessity rather than choice, and ones which give little honor or renown. The following are to be noted in judging the nature of the occupation:-


1. The signs and planets in, or rulers of, the 10th and 6th

2. The Sun's house and sign position and aspects, and the planet nearest to the sun, especially if rising before it.

3. The ascendant ruler's position, and the planet in strongest aspect to it.

4. The planet in strongest aspect to the Moon.

5. The dominant planets in the map.


Now you see, the particular nature of the occupation is very difficult to judge as the field of choice is so large, and many people follow more than one pursuit, especially if the mutable signs are strongly tenanted, and the signifactors receive many aspects. As a rule the exact work is denoted by several positions rather than by one only and follows the general type of map, but the most important factors in addition to the 10th and 6th houses are the strongest planet in the map and the Sun, Moon, Mercury, The Ascendant and its Ruler.**

The stronger the positions and aspects of any planet, the more connection will it have with the profession, and the nature of the aspect does not greatly influence the matter except that good aspects denote the better and more "refined" occupations of the planets, while bad aspects denote the more laborious and "obscure". The success in any work, however, depends upon the aspects and dignities of the planets concerned, and any occupation denoted by a badly placed or aspected planet will never prove successful. The cause of the lack of success is shown by the position og the afflicting planet and its nature, thus Saturn may cause laziness or neglect; Mars, pride, obstinacy, carelessness or debt; Venus, trouble through pleasures or women; and so on. In choosing a profession, look to the most favorably placed planets.

The nature of the chief signifactor and the sign containing it should be combined when judging the nature of the occupation. Thus Saturn denotes work in connection with dark objects, lead, etc, and Gemini has to do with writings and books, so that Saturn in Gemini might denote a compositor, provided the rest of the chart were in agreement.

Note also that the houses correspond to the sign and rule the same manners, so that a planet, say in the 6th house has a similar affect to one in virgo.

*~*~*~*~*~*

Here are brief examples of occupations ruled by the signs, and the effect of a planet that is present in that sign:-

Very interesting!
I'm trying to piece this all together.

My tenth house (in Virgo) is a focal point of my chart with a stellium of Mars, Pluto, Jupiter and Uranus. Mars is closest to the MC.

Sun is Libra 11th house with Mercury being the closest planet (same sign and house).

Ascendant ruler is Pluto.....which is included in my tenth house.

The planet closest to the moon (11th house, 9 degrees Libra) is Uranus at the end of my tenth house at 1 degree Libra. (Mercury is also close at 17 degrees Libra).

Neptune is exactly conjunct my Ascendant in Scorpio (Venus is conjunct, too).

I'm good at any position where I work with the public. My major was Elementary Ed but I realized a bit late that it wasn't for me. I have done staffing, sales, customer service, etc. etc. Autonomy is the most important factor as to whether I like a job or not; I need a LOT of breathing room and don't like anyone looking over my shoulder. I still feel like I haven't found THE thing I should be doing; I would like something more meaningful than just a JOB..... I have been thinking about that a lot lately. I am very passionate about human rights, etc.....

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
