Anyway...I've been reading about the Midheaven, and it seems to me that the traditional things it represents are career, public face, etc..
I was wondering if anyone else ever felt that the Midheaven is actually more important than it's been made up to be. I feel extremely identified with the sign it falls in (Aquarius), much more than with my asc (which by the way I don't feel it describes me at all). I don't have anything else in aquarius and I don't have much uranus influence (if any)
I don't think that my chart looks like a freedom loving person, however you wouldn't believe how much I love it, and it's the first thing people notice about me: how "free" I am, (also a bit of an airhead) hehe.
The only way I feel I "represent" my sun/moon/asc (can/cap/taurus) is when I say I like to be at home, I need a lot of space, and when I get a bit depressed (but that could also be my Moon sq. Saturn)

Anyway, I have a Pisces MC (4 Pisces), I also have Venus in Pisces (29 Pisces). I'm not sure if I really identify with it.

We all live more or less withing the frame of rules our society forces upon us. Freedom is on the decline, more and more world is becoming a small place where we can't run from our past and/or mistakes. It;s a shame there isn't really a fresh start anymore

I have some Sag and no Aqua. I work hard as hell to be able to earn money and make choices in my life. And I don't consider that any more or less Freedom loving . It's just what it is. I choose constraints and sacrifices now for sake of a happier tomorrow

authority and prominence, in particular to the career, the ego-consciousness and spiritual awareness, the aim in life,the brain proper

In the Midheaven, all of the energies of the individual are brought together in a certain method. The Midheaven is not only the cusp of the tenth house, but also the point at which the real inner existence and spiritual direction in our lives is found.

Cosmobiologists and Uranian Astrologers don't use the houses like we do. Therefore,they don't focus on the Midheaven as the 10th house cusp and as career like Mainstream Astrologers do.

Also the Midheaven is not the 10th house cusp in both Equal Sign house system and Whole Sign House system.
Midheaven can be conjunct or opposite the Ascendant. It can even be located in the bottom half of the chart.

My Midheaven is in Gemini, but I don't really relate to it except for an emphasis on communications

I have the following aspects to my Midheaven

wide conjunct Saturn - discipline,structure,realism
(Saturn is in a Gauquelin sector with it being in the 9th and less than 10 degrees from the Midheaven..in my case, it's less than 7 degrees... and so it's a strongly placed in the chart)

oppose Jupiter - expansion,philosophy,optimism

trine/sextile Lunar Nodes - connections,associations

trine Uranus - unconventional,change,innovation

biquintile Sun - ego,self expression,vitality

minor planets:

conjunct major asteroid Pallas in Right Ascension - creative intelligence,pattern recognition, social politics

trine Dwarf planet Pluto in Right Ascension - Transformation,regeneration,elimination,nonconformist,evolutionary intensified lessons,experiences

trine Hygeia (big asteroid) - health,hygeine

square transneptunian Dwarf planet Haumea - fertility,creativity,regeneration,nonconformist,evolutionary intensified lessons/experiences

sextile transneptunian Dwarf planet Eris - diversity,equality,nonconformist,evolutionary intensified lessons/experience

sextile centaur Chiron - healing,teaching,nonconformist

sextile centaur Asbolus - divination,nonconformist

biquintile transneptunian dwarf planet candidate Ixion - second chances, matters dealing with gratitude,nonconformist,evolutionary intensified lessons/experiences

parallel asteroid dwarf planet Ceres - nurturing,food

Nodes of objects:

conjunct/oppose Heliocentric and Geocentric transneptunian dwarf planet Ixion Nodes - collective second chances,matters involving gratitude,nonconformist,evolutionary intensified lessons/experiences

oppose Geocentric South Uranus Node - collective unconventional,change,innovation

sextile/trine Heliocentric Neptune Nodes - collective inspiration,imagination,compassion

Excellent info, Glaucus!

I identify with my MC. It is probably because my Moon is exactly conjunct it (MC).

I love it when people perceive themselves as 'free' and then they talk about boundaries and boxes, metaphorically

That would seem like a very strong lunar influence, and so Cancerians have nothing on you. The Moon is so very prominent in your chart. It's like your very soul.

so lunar things like emotions,feelings,fluctuations,sensitivity,intuition,nurturing,women,dreams,unconscious would be highly major theme in your life

also

with you being born in the Southern Hemisphere, I was wondering if you can relate to Sun in Pisces

The tropical zodiac is based on the northern hemisphere seasons, but you were born in the southern hemisphere. Therefore, I do wonder if you can relate to the Sun in Pisces traits.

Some astrologers flip the tropical zodiac signs to accommodate for people born in the southern hemisphere.

I must say though, that my chart describes me pretty well. There aren't many, if any, things that I'd say I don't feel or relate to, when it comes to the placements in my chart.

Anyway, I just put that as an example as I thought it'd be easier to make my point.

Glaucus, that's awesome information. I'll try to find some more information about Uranian and Cosmobiologist astrology. I knew it existed but I didn't really know what it was about.
I was also born in the Southern Hemisphere, so I wonder if that has something to do with it.

What I meant by "free" was: hating a 9 to 5 job, not wanting to be tied down to the point of not wanting to form a family, loving to meet new people, new scenaries, travelling, etc etc

Hm. I would probably be severely depressed if I worked a 9 to 5. I don't like being scheduled. I also don't really want kids because they tie you down too much. I don't mind marriage, though.
