I've been in love with the written word for as long as I could remember. I've always wanted to be an author. I wrote poetry, fiction, plays and also songs. I was the Drama Club president back at high School and now, I'm majoring in English Literature. My biggest dream is to publish something of my own one day. I asked around and I was told that publishing is mainly a 9th House thing.
I have Taurus at the cusp of my 9th House. Venus, the ruler of my 9th, is located in the 3rd House in Sagittarius and it's in conjunction with both, my Mercury (Sagittarius) and my Sun (Sagittarius). I also have Gemini at the cusp of my 10th House, a Virgo Ascendant and Libra in the 2nd. My Mercury conjunct my Pluto ( which is in Scorpio) in the 3rd House.

So, is there any indicators of writing talents in my chart ? Do I have the potential of being recognized one day as an author?

Thanks in advance
Here's my natal chart ( transits aside )

With all the third house planets and Sagittarius/Gemini emphasized you will devote a lot of time to writing.

Getting published isn't easy for anyone unless you have personal connections, so don't be discouraged by the opps between your Sag planets and your mid heaven It just means you will work toward realizing your dream.

Writing would very much fit your Gemini midheaven. Whatever your career will be, it will likely be the focus of your energies. Your MC ruler in the 4th may indicate that you may like to work from your home, or in another place where you feel 'at home'. You prefer solitude because you can concentrate better when working alone, which also fits if you want to pursue a career as an author.

I say stick with it. If you want, we can talk more in depth about which genres are most prominent in your chart. (For example, mine, transgressive fiction, is all over the place.)

Happy Penmonkeying!

Thanks Indigo for the encouragement
I'd love love to talk to you about what writing genres I should concentrate on.

Yes, I think that you have the potential. You have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and may possess a wide imagination, which is nourished through reading. Your chart ruler conjunct Pluto, your 3rd house ruler and Venus shows not only your love and aptitude for writing but also a creative mind. You are adept at communication but you work best if you are able to express your thoughts and feelings through writing. You are attentive to details but sometimes, you don't have the patience for it and prefer seeing the big picture instead. I think your writing style would be something that would leave people thinking.

Hope this helped! Wishing you the best of luck!
