I admire people who live with a purpose and define success by living out their dreams.

And I don’t mean “success” in the material sense of accomplishments and material possessions, but people who have found their passion through their jobs.

How many of us can honestly say that you enjoy what takes up roughly 40 %( and in some cases more) of your existence?

How many people can really say that they think of their job as “play”?

I have the ruler of my 1st house (Venus) in the sixth house and, joining them, is Saturn and Pluto. I have always been frustrated as to what my “usefulness” should be? What am I really supposed to be doing with my life?

I have a friend who has the ruler of his 1st house (Saturn) in the 10th-Jupiter and Pluto also there. He has worked for years on what he terms an “unsatisfactory” job.

I was reading through some of the stuff that I wrote years ago; back when I was applying the “law of attraction” philosophy to my everyday life.

What struck me as apparent in my writings was how it seemed that I’d been writing about and asking about the same thing time and time again: Job enjoyment, Job satisfaction, Job creativity, Career clarity etc.

Are other people with 6th house /10th house placements equally as preoccupied with issues related to work; Purpose; Calling; Career direction? Etc.

6th and 10th can be health and status too. Beauty…maybe.

I have Sun, Mercury, and Venus in the 11th, I get frustrated I'm not able to send a bigger message to a wider group of people. I think being a YouTube star would be a satisfying career for me even if I was just making How-To videos and whatnot.

Overall I'm content with my job. Not overjoyed with it, but compared to retail or the tag agency, it's a hell of a lot better. I can't say I've ever come home just absolutely hating people like I used to at my other jobs. I work at a hotel.

I'll take a look at your post. Coz I kinda think that think topic overlaps with your subject heading as well.

I don't believe in mediocrity. Nor do I believe in "celebrity". But I do believe in purpose, I do believe in conscious and joyful expression and I do believe that, in no other place can this expression be realized then at the work place.

The ruler of 7th house (Pluto) is in my 6th and the ruler of my 1st(Venus) is in my 6th. The ruler of my 9th house is in the 6th house
and the ruler of my 6th house(also Venus) is in 6th.

Not only is work a part of my identity(1st), it is also what I am "married"(7th)to.

But the irony is that, despite my passionate beliefs, it continues to be an area in which I struggle.

I struggle to find work that speaks of who I am

I struggle to find creative expression at work.

I struggle to appreciate and even enjoy the work I do.

Saturn is currently transiting my 6th house and things at work have gotten very tough. My self confidence and ability to speak up and have a voice has been muted.

I don't recognize the mouse character I've turned into and its got me wondering for how long will I continually go in circles and not realize the best "me" in what I do. Really!!!
