Does this depend on aspects between planets?

For me....I chose my job based on my personality and the fact that I can't make up my mind...so for now....I do this...

In the meantime I spread love and goodwill and have great compassion for people but also set boundries up so I don't flood with there stuff.

I want to be rich...yes...but not ultra rich or wealthy...just as wealthy as I can be so that I can spread my love and money outwards in a taurus formation from the center out..

I don't have any kids or plan on it and I take care of my parents. I have plenty of love in my life but sometimes I wonder if I should be some sort of adventurous swashbuckler...I pretty much chose to be alone while I study hard and exercise.

I ask this because a lot of horoscopes speak about coming into your truth? They say when you do you will experience flow...well I've been studying for years and I just hit a critical point where I do experience that but it was darn nabbit hard to get here and it wasn't no easy mocha.

So I'm wondering...IF I do something fun, like pickup a guitar, will the rays of divinity just pass through my fingertips and will I become famous? Or should i use my creativity like thomas eddison and invent things?

It's so hard...I'ts like whatever I do I'm good at it. I don't care...not ranting...just wondering...maybe our truth is we are not to know our truth until the time is right...

I know I'm on the right path because every day there are major syncronicities.

Yesterday I was reading the myth about minerva...and today I saw minerva olive oil on a table at a restraunt I never go to except for every year.

So he or she, the big mr. or mrs. upstairs, is sending me the right moves...I'm just wondering if anyone else can give me an amen.

you can be rich following your passions.
Is it art?

There are so many fields with $$$ that require an artistic person, you most definitely need a degree too.

Yeah...It's kind of like art...but I can't make up my mind. I make beats and stuff...I have a general inkling for music and drawing...but I also need to exercise...and what not.

I just come from a really traditional heritage too. It feels like art kind of freezes me and I can never finish a thing...

and then there is all this fear around puting something out there without knowing how it effects people...Like me and my friends used to rap and stuff...but now I'm almost 30....and I've matured past it.

I don't know what to do...I don't think I want to do art per say...maybe start a record label or help artists sell there art...

to be honest....I've thought about film...filming people and telling them what to do because I know how to bring the best out of them...and make them look cool as raz.

That's kind of why I'm studying for this exam too...once I get it I can move may way through corporate and see how these chums work it. Then I can strike out on my own with a team or something and make or design games..

I dont know...I even thought about a tarot publishing house...

I have jupiter in capricorn though so it makes it hard for me to be an artist I believe. I'm kind of begrudging and miserly.

And I've never really had any luck except for having love in my love and good fam...but my friends were never that good...except for a few...and I've had to work my skittles to the bone for any sort of feedback from the universe.

I feel like once I pass this exam I can open up...it's kind of like becoming a lawyer but never using your law degree...you just did it to pay the bills for a while until you figured it out...

I don't see myself becoming good in art because even though I have raw talent...I haven't practiced it and I'm almost half way through life...

And i know artists, fine artist, like oil painters, who are virtually masters in the field but struggling..

KEROSENE what are some creative positions that pay good cheese?

Well you all can see my chiron in gemini here...it's like a giant brain fart/bleeding session...it gets like this in real life too...endless mulling over of ideas and thinking strategically how to implement them.

That's the cap in me...trying to satisfy the moon in pisces..

I did my Master Degree, because my friend has applied, too Waste of time, not something I have a passion for, but you know... I was flattered when I was passing through all stages of the application (grades, interview, interview, another interview... money). Ahhh well, I'm just 30, I'm gonna do something I really like. Still plenty of time!

PS. I'm a study junkie! Doing 2 online courses atm.

Choose two: one based on passion and one that you are sure you can get a good job with.
There is no reason to do just one thing.

Many artists are also working, at least part-time - so they can finance their artistic pursuits. It usually takes some time, energy and effort before you begin to really capitalize on your art.

Just promise me you will chose your field based on passion, that is the only way to get successful in this life. I mean do you live for your work or do you work for your life?

It sounds like you want to live for your work, and thats why it would be a good idea to choose something you can stand doing for the rest of your life…. there is many people who chose jobs that isn't especially interesting but they got their passion somewhere else… people who are passionate about their jobs get successful and rich

Astrology can help guide you into the field where you could get successful, but it's up to you to chose the field which you are most interested in

Hmmm, I wonder if you are experiencing a Saturn return? I had the same questions, and still do, on the eve of my 30th birthday.

Maybe you should post your chart and have us take a look? I am curious about your 5th house,11th house, 9th house, 10th house, 6th house and 2nd house placements.

2nd, 6th and 10th have to do with professional life and career.

5th house is passions,9th house is higher education and 11th house is hope and dreams.

I would promise you that I can always do it on the side but it's hard to pursue it. Everyone around me who is successful never pursued their passions. The ones who pursue their passions....for me it is especially hard because I have no concrete examples in my life and I don't know exactly what my passion is...

Some people are greater at working hard than others, even if they didn't exactly follow their passion… but they somehow got a great self discipline. Maybe their overall passion is just to get rich and powerful? Maybe they just seem successful on the outside but on the inside they feel miserable because they don't follow their passion.

But don't compare yourself with others… just do whatever YOU want from life. The most important thing is that you feel your goal of life is being fulfilled, and that is not necessarily through your work.

Take your time to find out what you are passionate about, but don't hold yourself back.

I'm talking from experience, seriously!

Always follow your passion, imo. It will lead you to your purpose

What if you have like 5 passions and it's a full time juggling act?
Music
Drawing
Writing
Dancing
Running?
Computers and programming!

Sometimes I try to combine them in my plans...like combining drawing and writing into creating a publication like comics via Stan Lee...and combining dancing and running and music in exercise...

Or writing and music as in song writing?

Or thinking of a startup I could use my business degree to implement that makes the world better in terms of the passion nature.

Is this what you all mean by it? You don't necessarily have to do it for a living but it should compose a huge part of your life?

I see your point, I got similar passions myself. I love writing, acting, music and drawing but never did anything serious about it (yet).
My best advice is to try one of your passions, try making something concrete, like making it puplic whether it be making some drawings for an exhibition, or make some finished songs you feel you could act out on a stage, or try to write a whole book…. try try try anything you like!

@Alex, jealous much? Haha.

Anyway, even though it wasn't something I had passion for, I'm still proud of my achievement. I got Hons, btw. Sorry, if my honesty has offended you. I just thought, I could share my experience and chart placements... But I totally understand your sarcasm

I'm not being sarcastic and I'm not jealous of you. I admire that...I too am a study monk and get great grades. I wish my grades sucked though because then I would drop out of school and play in a folk band...or be forced to do something Iiked instead of strung along according to everything I'm good at.

I promise you I will try...but at the moment I'm fully devoted to studying..

I tried putting out my music and art before but realized from responses that even though it was pretty cool and good it would take me years upon years to ever sell it and make money from it.........
