I always think that if someone phrases 'I want to know what I really want to do' then first it might be an idea to look at the 5th, 7th, and perhaps 11th houses, because the 5th is about what you enjoy doing, the 7th is a Venus house so tends to be what you like, want and find attractive, and the 11th house can encompass wishes and aspirations.

Then I find it helpful to consider the 2nd, the 6th and the 10th in terms of what resources, aptitudes and earnings you may generate (2nd); and what you daily routine, service, and work involves (6th), and then what reputation, status, goals, and achievements might develop over time, in fact what you might be recognised as, or what you might be known for, or what work towards or gain qualifications (10th).

In fact the whole chart will contribute to career because career is such a hinge for what kind of lifestyle, what you do for most of the time etc, and it says a lot about our personality, hence the 10th house is traditionally a career house, its cusp is the MC and it shines down over the whole chart from the top of the chart. Thus the highest planet in the chart is often significant and planets, signs, and aspects in the 10th will add traits to the type of career.

So one of my biggest problem these days is sticking to the conventional astrological delineation without being affected by the symbolism and its relationships and manifestations.

But I will try to see what you have going on in your chart, out of interest.

Of course, others might have a totally differrent swing so hopefully my synthesis will not rule out other input or deter you from your natural inclinations.

5th house:
Aries on the cusp, ruler Mars on the 8th in Cancer in the T-square mentioned, and trining Venus in Scorpio in 11th:

You like to get physically involved with others and could like caring for people physically, you know how to get intimate quickly and could get up close and personal quickly with someone's physical appearance/space.

7th house:
Gemini on th 7th, ruled by Mercury in Libra on 10th/11th semisextile Jupiter in Virgo on the MC:
You like variety, are curious, and communicative with others close to you or the public in general. You are interested in cooperation, peace, beauty and harmony and tend to be a relaxed communicator that is attentive to the little things someone is saying. You can identify quickly but sensibly with what services someone needs and will have learning and knowledge of services available.

11th house:
Libra on 11th cusp, ruled by Venus in Scorpio in 11th, Mercury conjunct 11th cusp:
You like friend circles, and groups to be harmonious and you are very social. You can chat on freely to a wide range of people from all walks of life about their relationships, their possessions and what they do and don't like.

2nd house:
Capricorn on the cusp ruler Saturn in Cap in same house

You find it difficult to get motivated, you tend to be uncertain as to what you want to put your time and effort into.

Uranus-Neptune in Capricorn conjunct 2nd cusp, opposing Mars in Cancer, squaring Sun in Libra in 10th, Uranus-Neptune sextile Venus in 11th:

Fearful of becoming self sufficient and taking personal responsibility. You may wish to push others into sharing the load and if you don't have the resources you tend to try and get others to provide or to cover your situation. Alternating between taking charge, and remaining a child. The sextile to Venus, inner reserves of capability that will develop and take others by surprise.

Money reserves can fluctuate between being disappointing and exciting. You could battle with self confidence but get around it by looking good and keeping up with what appeals to you and those around you.

You can determine trends and popularity of things, you probably are up with what the celebrities are doing, wearing, saying etc.

6th house:
Taurus on the 6th ruled by Venus in Scorpio in 11th, sextile Uranus/Neptune, square Moon/Saturn, trine Mars:
You like to be productive daily and don't particularly like sitting around with out worthwhile activities to fill your day. You do like adequate time out to enjoy life and not get too depleted. The social dimension has to be part of the day, you like to be in contact with others online. You could get frustrated with money, and feel emotionally drained at the end of the day.

Product promotion and placement might be part of the day.

10th house:
Virgo midheaven with Jupiter extremely strong, ruled by Mercury in Libra and semisextile to it, and Sun, Mercury and Jupiter in 10th:

You can be seen as someone involved with learning, it may have a practical training component or an apprenticeship. You could turn yourself to business in the profession at some point and may gain qualifications in business administration, or a tertiary qualification in the technical aspects of a profession. Or you could become an educator, guide or teacher to others.

Also as a side point, Pluto disposits several of the key players in the chart, its also strong on the 12th cusp, and it is squaring chiron on the 9th cusp.

You understand sex appeal you have an interest in getting an edge on others through exploring deep subjects. You can heal yourself and others by what you deal with in terms of troubles, loss and betrayal.

So by the astrological, there is a lot of information, and some better astrologers may get more streamlined indications and insights.

To look at the chart and seek by impression I am immediately focused to Mars and its aspects to Venus, Sun and though a wide trine, Pluto is up there with the contact to Mars probably because its heavy influence on dispositing sun and venus.

It seems why Mars gets the green light to dictate career is because it is is the 7th house, Libras natural house and the Sun is in Libra. Also Sun square Mars is the closest planetary aspect in your chart and the Sun is seated in the 10th.

Ultimately, your career looks to be in social causes and dealing with abuse, neglect, and separation.

Initially, you may be a beauty consultant under an apprenticeship - however with Jupiter on the MC you seek to improve services and make a difference by getting to the bottom of troubles and issues.

Sun in Libra in 10th, keyword, you identify with an important balance organisation

Mars in Cancer on the 7th/8th,
active protection of shared public resources (maybe like with taxpayer's funds)

Venus in Scorpio in 11th,
wearing something close to others in a large group (out of it idea but maybe wearing similar and being all lined up, and in each other's face in defined roles etc within a recognised group)

Pluto in Scorpio in 12th, so maybe
depth and force in (Neptune's House), like a force on deep water, ideas like that.

Jupiter on MC, being very good at details, well they call routine daily activities details I think. (and there's other keywords you could play around with)

I love keywords. But yes, I think Navy would definitely be a candidate. And I'm sure you will do well at anything you do.
