what sign is it in.

what house is it in.

what aspects does it make.

what houses are those planets in taht aspect it?

my MC is in Aries, it represents my desire to BE.

my ruler of that, Mars, is in virgo. virgo as a sign should not specifically say i want to of service, thats the typical narrow minded approach to astrology. no one planet or sign is specific to do one thing.

what they are specific to sticking to is themes and energies, that relate back to it.

virgo themes besides health adn service would include intellectualism, problem solving, managing, organization, efficiency, logic, etc etc. what we also must consider is that in my case, this means tahts how my MC ruler Mars, DOES. not necessarily WHAT i will do for carreer, but HOW i do it as well. in virgo ways is how i approach what ever carreer intersts me. of course that will mold the carreer interests to a degree.

in my opinion, its the house that has as much if not more influence that determines what that planet in our chart wants to do, or atleast what it feels happiest in doing when doing it.

my Mars is in the 2nd house, i have a desire and liking for possesions, money, business.

this backs up my desire that in my carreer, i don't just simply want to "earn" money, i want to "make it". property, business, all is appealing to me. thats my mars in the 2nd house. i love monopoly

now.. aspects wise.. my mars sextiles Pluto tightly which is in the 4th house. emotions are psychologically undestandable to me naturally, its a language i understand.

its also an interest, psychology. pluto also backs up my interest and enjoyment of investigation (along with virgo for analyizing and understanding), investigation, understanding motives, looking into things.

my mars trines neptune which is in the 5th house, this perhaps backs up my desire for creativity, i am into photography, and films, film making, i have interest in doing those, my neptune trine to my mars is the tightest aspect (1 orb). this is biased energy to my chart since i am a leo asc & sun, with uranus trine sun, and uranus and neptune in the 5th with saturn in the 5th - lots of creative energy. aries moon in the 9th backs this.

iv had interest in counselling and therapy, this perhaps is backed up by the neptune - to mars in virgo aspect- service, compassion.

lastly, my mars trines saturn, backs up an interest in business, but organizations like military. establishments.

we should also consider aspects to our MC, my MC trines my sun, this backs up the creativity area and probably my desire for film making.

so what you want to do is - translate and udneerstand what your mc energies are interactiving iwth in your chart. and its ruler amd houses.

you should consider what INTERESTS YOU the most, interest is key, so is enjoying it. don't choose carreer on the most practical choice, you will want to change carreer eventually if you do and fall for something that really itnerests you taht you WANT to do.

There are also a few aspects with asteroids too. Not sure if you meant for me to post all that but just in case.

I'm envious of your mars aspects amoung other things you mentioned! Most of my mars aspects aren't very good, haha.

We have a few similar interests.
I love photography and have seriously considered pursuing it as a career... but I know it's not in demand and I definitely want to have a decent income. Gotta have that financial stablility. Plus... there are much better photographers than myself. And many of them. I'm not good with competition or criticism. Too sensitive...thanks to pisces moon.
Counseling and therapy were considered too. I'd want to care for the sexually abused more than anything. I gave up on going for that too. A lot of self-doubt.

I have sun sextile MC as well... nearly the only postive aspect to it.
Theres always hope though, right? haha

it wants to pick something practical and assuring of income.

it doesnt promote desire for risk taking.

which is okay,

but bare in mind if you pick a carrer you "think you;ll be good at" for the peace of mind of more chance of earning higher income. you will more likely sacrifice important carreer elements such as Interest, enjoyment, and being passionate about your work.

passion is key, passionate interest, or desire, or joy.

i made this mistake myself in college, i was told i was better at photoshop and webdesign, and i agreed, i thought i should go with that because i'd do better.

but you know what? i had no interest in waht i was learning, or passion, or much joy. and any faith in doing well at it was quickly outweighed by the lack of interest and joy, and desire. and in the end, i ended up with the same result i feared getting at something i wanted to do. - i didn't get good grades.

i was too scared to pick film making because i thought its too competitive and not an assuring choice to get income.

but its passion, interest and enjoyment of what you are doing, that drive you to success.

and as my good friend put it -

its better to regret something you did than regret something you didn't do.

later down the line, will you wonder waht you couldve acheived if you did what you really wanted to do or be?

thats just me, and my experience and what iv learned from.

I actually have a Pisces MC...and let me tell you I have no idea what I want to be lol. I will say that in general I chose what was the most practical thing to go in.

When I first went to college I got into psychology because it was the easiest way for me to get into med school. And I found the concepts not me. I'm the type of learner where you give me something to do and I can do it. But I can't explain why I can do it (which is why explaining things sucks...I can do them just not comprehend them). But I guess thinking non linear is tough for me.

pretty important aspects:
neptune sag quindecile jupiter taurus(165)
Neptune square MC
Neptune quindecile Ascendant gemini 29' (165)
Jupiter quintile MC

No, I have no idea of what I should be doing for a career.

I've been through so many ideas,but none seem to stick.

Over the last 5 years I've wanted to be an artist in many ways and that's what I've been pursuing with great enthusiasm.

I said once that I would become an "X" when I was very young..
I was asked "Why?" - and my answer was: "Because I want to help people!" LOL (how piscean).
I obviously had no clue what it meant then.. and I had a dreamy/hollywood version of "X" in mind.

But later at around 14, in high school I went back to thinking I would like to work as an "X". It has not changed since then.

I finished my degree in "Things needed in order to practice X" and am now doing a PhD and working part time in "X".

My MC is Pisces -
I had no confusion regarding this at all.

I can tell you of what I have learned, that Pisces MC people tend to have career aspirations of some kind of "Let's Save the World" mood. Indeed when I finished Highschool I had some kind of that Save-The-World feeling for what I wanted to choose to study in University. I ended up in "International Relations", but lately I understood that it was not because of my Pisces MC, but because my 2nd house Jupiter in Leo Trine 6th House Mercury in Sag which provides strong skills with languages, geography, etc...
And as you can see, my Jupiter & Mercury both are in earth houses (2nd & 6th) so you probably should see also what signs are in the cusp of those houses in your chart, or what planets fall in those houses.
