Just ran your chart... Your MC (Midheaven) is in Gemini. Your MC represents what career fits you best and how you prefer to express your public image - 10th house. With a Gemini MC you should be interested in jobs that involve communications (writing, teaching, sales, public relations, advertising). Also many people with a Gemini MC have multiple jobs because Gemini can do many things at one time they are very flexible. Also you have your Moon and Venus in Gemini, you have some dominant Gemini in your chart. Your Cancerian traits are still there however.... You probably resigned because you just want a feel for something different and that's how Gemini MC's feel at times, they want to experience every career basically. It's harder to tie a Gemini MC down when it comes to careers. ------------------ capricorn asc ♑ - jupiter prominent ♃ libra sun ♎ libra moon ♎ Triple Libran, 9th house Stellium in Libra ''Only through the darkness can you see the stars'' - Martin Luther King, Jr. IP: Logged |

I can't read charts but you should look into transits. Hopefully, someone can help with that. IP: Logged |

Are these your current transits? Sun square pluto can cause a lot of upheaval. Which houses are Uranus and Pluto currently in your chart? IP: Logged |

I'm guessing you woke up, looked in the mirror (literal, or figurative) and said, what the **** am I doing? I'm working too much, in a job I don't enjoy.Considering we only live for around... say 27,400 days or so. Every day you wake up and do a job you don't enjoy. Is another day "wasted". The only reason people do jobs, is so we can pay other people. Take it back to cave man days, the tribe leader got everything, the tribe members got all the benefits of the tribe. Fast forward to feudalism, were we had Serfs and Lords, where now Lords get everything, Serfs get less than the tribesmen did back in Cave days. Fast forward to to today, where people now spend every penny they earn to fill the pockets of those that don't need the money and have even less than all the generations before them. Oh but it's not like we will notice, I mean we have TV, Cinema, Games, and a huge range of other functional devices to distract us from the problems in the world. I mean, what do people really care if they can just afford rent and bills, and have a TV they can sit and watch their shows on, before and after working? Why should they care that there are people earning $350 million dollars a year and paying less tax than those who earn $15,000 dollars a year? I digress... Congratulations for realising you don't want to waste your time doing something you don't want to do. I wish you all the best in finding something more rewarding in your life to do. ------------------ Learn lots. Don't judge. Laugh for no reason. Be nice. Seek Happiness. Follow your dreams.

@just add water - and which house is Saturn currently in? I think Sun square pluto is causing an upheaval with your identity. Maybe you did not identify with your job. Jupiter trine MC could mean that something better is going to take its place so you had to get out of the job you didn't like in order for the better one to come along. Do you want to stay in the electrical engineering field or are you looking at other careers? IP: Logged |

Your Chart Sun 2°35' Cancer Moon 14°52' Gemini Mercury 16°22' Я Cancer Venus 16°20' Gemini Mars 22°17' Cancer Jupiter 24°59' Aries Saturn 16°45' Я Sagittarius Uranus 24°24' Я Sagittarius Neptune 6°44' Я Capricorn Pluto 7°18' Я Scorpio Transiting Saturn is trine your Mars and Mercury. This effect can have one feeling restricted, inhibited, like they can't move. But it's not as bad as when Saturn squares/conjuncts Mars. Natal Sun opposes natal Neptune. have you considered going into the health profession? Neptune always wants to do something that has mysticism, magic or touches people's lives in some way. But be careful of transiting Jupiter conjunct your natal Mercury and Mars. You may be seeing things with rose-coloured glasses right now. IP: Logged |

I got more of a sincerity out of meeting people around the city while doing work and electrical confined me to rooms alone for many hours it occupied my mind and kept me a little stimulated kind of therapeutic when I was in the zone but it wasn't clicking for me like I couldn't see myself doing this for a career .Funny the night before i said I wish I was involved with the medical field more and not so much a male nurse persay but something with assisting to others I was even considering doing thereputical counseling sessions for psych or adolescents .. ( I have a backround in music theory and composing ) I need something with more assistance to others I am good with my hands and can research a lot of stuff to understand any new trade but I'm not sure engineer is where the heart was. Something more public related ? Interact with others ? Maybe a weekend blogger for my own sanity ? Lol IP: Logged |

I think it is great that you realized the job wasn't for you and did something about it. Not many people do that and they always feel stuck. It takes courage to make changes.IP: Logged |

I think you would do well working as a music therapist or a physical therapist. If you want stronger job security, I would pursue a career in physical therapy. Your knowledge of physics that you acquired from your engineering degree will serve you well and it's a hands-on job. The money is quite good as well. I know how you feel. I was in your shoes before. It is very difficult to figure out which path you should choose and how to make it happen.. What you need to ask yourself is: what makes you happiest? Do you like teaching? Working with kids? Writing? Selling? IP: Logged |
