Hello people ... I am quite new to astrology but gaining increasing interest in it ...

I had a question what is the vertex and the MC ... I am a bit confused about those things?

Below is my chart ... any insights are greatly appreciated!

"Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's okay though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation...so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type...I'm like, 'hey girl, magenta!' and she's like, 'oh, you mean purple!' and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, 'no - I want magenta!'"

Intensity, the meaning of the Vertex is a point located in the western hemisphere of the chart (right side of the chart) in astrology is considered and auxiliary Descendant. The Anti Vertex is the point that is exactly opposite the Vertex.

Same Astrologers refer the Vertex as the third angle of the chart.

It is perhaps most widely used in synastry.
The Vertex is said to be activated at major
turning points in our lives, most notably when we meet a significant other or end of a relationship, and some belive it is triggered when there is a birth or death.

In synastry , it is often prominet in significant relationships: one person's personal planet or Asc conjuncts or oppose the other person's Vertex.

Intensity, The MC or Midheaven is the cusp of the 10th house, and it is associated with our outer standing in the world, our reputation and fortune. It represents fame and honor since it is here that we have our most visible activity in the outher world, and our clearest vision of the goal. We can see and use; it is our vantage point or perspective. Planets transiting this house may provide opportunities to achieve our goals.
