I was looking at my step-mom's chart who is a lawyer, and I had to laugh at how obvious some of the angles/placements are. Anyway my whole life I was told "you should become a lawyer", but I've had my reasons for not liking the profession.. Although now, I've been thinking if I could find the right branch of law it might not be such a terrible idea.. In general, for aspects I'd say:

9th house and Sag planets: obvious reasons

7th house and Libra planets: diplomacy and "open enemies", 9th and 7th house rulers are important too

Cap placements or strong Saturn: authority and hierarchies

Virgo/6th house depending on the planet: ability to meticulously analyze details and boring information lol

I'd also look at the 11th house: concerned with Aquarian "ideals" for society

So any thoughts? Anyone here go through law school/work in the legal world or know the chart of someone who has and want to share?

I never knew her birth time until recently, but going along with my theories she has ruler of 9th conjunct ruler of 7th (in 11th house), Virgo Jupiter-Moon-Venus in 9th. Jupiter sextile 9th ruler, Venus and Pluto conjunct MC lol. Sag Asc and Cap Mars in 1st

Also true about your Moon-Saturn in 9th. Cool that it's also trine Jupiter, which I was thinking might have something to do with it too..

Well someone is a lot more knowledgeable in astrology than I am haha.

No quite certain yet, I am stuck between becoming a Lawyer or a Forensic Psychologist. I'm just starting out, so I'm dabbling. The only thing I'm certain of is I love law.

It was usually the Sun and/or Mars in those signs.
My own Mars is in Capricorn.

I don't mean to be simplistic.. but the *amount* of people in my class who fit this profile is pretty astounding. I know their birth data because I have them added on FB. Obviously I don't have their TOB though. The ASC/Houses would also be significant.

Hey I didn't know you went to law school??

But that's cool about the Cap/Libra... And makes sense with your Cap mars, you have a Cap moon too right?

I guess it would make sense in my chart too with Cap Sun in 7th conjunct Saturn-NN (Saturn rules my 7th and is co-ruler of 9th)

How about you?

Nice, and yeah I'm sure you have plenty of time to figure it out...

I've considered going into Forensics too but would be interested more in the jobs that require a science degree, and I don't want to start over with that. Law school is just an idea at this point, paying for it seems a little too unrealistic unless I could kill it on the LSAT and get a decent scholarship.. But my undergrad major is Intl relations so I'd consider International law or maybe something like Environmental law...

He interned beneath prosecutors or whatever and was going to go to law school but ended up getting a really good job offer through connections he'd made. He fell in love with law and criminal justice.
