Ideas?

[illyria]

Well, I've heard some opinions on my eventual career, i'm interested in astrology, too, but to see through my own chart seemed not to be such a good idea. So it's unclear to me and i would rather ask for some fresh ideas about - what am i predestined for? do i have any significant talent or abilities? and am i capable of any public career such as acting for example?

or just what do you see i'm good at? i would be very very thankful for any answer, cause i'm so confused and now is the moment when i decide what i'm gonna dedicate my life to and i wish it is sth i really got the abilities and possibilities, the strive for and the good chance.

illyria,

You have a bucket chart with Jupiter (expansion, also teaching) focused in the 8th house (transformation, also psychology) as the "handle". So you have the ability to teach others about transformation processes in their life. Since much of your energy is at the bottom (inner world) part of your chart, you can use your inner world awareness to help teach others how to transform their lives through being aware of their inner needs and desires. This transformation process could also be helping others through a psychological method which helps educate themselves about their inner selves.

Inwardly,

Tim

Hi Illyria,

I've read your very competent post about AnnaViolet7's chart, so suspect you already know that :-

Both the natural (pluto) and natal (mars) rulers of the eighth are money planets, located in their own sign of scorpio (= money again) and dispositing Jupiter (the key planet to which Wilsontc refers). Since pluto = psychology/transformation and mars = action, I'd say some kind of career along the lines suggested by Wilsontc would certainly be financially rewarding.

That seems to be supported further by the stellium in the 4th house (psychological foundations) which is natally ruled by Jupiter in 8th (transformation). In terms of "predestiny" though, I guess the North Node in Pisces/7th might indicate relationship counselling of some kind - whilst Chiron in Gemini/10th suggests a career helping others to communicate.

However, none of this would rule out a possible career in acting - as this uncanny ability to understand people in-depth is an ideal talent for a "method actor", and that no doubt applies to other careers too (advertising or sales for example).

This will be a reading by traditional astrology so try not to let it confuse you even more. First, your chart indicates one who has freewill; you are not being driven by predestination; you are master of your own soul and will have to make your own decisions.

I will address the issue of acting although teaching and astrology are real possibilities for you. Gemini is the 10th house(I am using whole sign system.), its domicile and triplicity ruler is Mercury, and Mercury has a direct view of the 10th house: This gives you the mental ability for acting-- remembering your lines. Venus and Neptune both natural significators of acting are in the 5th house of entertainment. Venus joys in the 5th and is the second triplicity ruler there. The second ruler covers entertainments; the first would be children.

Libra, the sign of acting, is the second house. This indicates that you can make money at acting, and the Moon, another indicator of cash, is also there.

But also you will need a following, and that is indicated by Cancer(the public), the 11th house. The Lot of Spirit is there: This lot indicates your own initiative and freewill in traditional astrology; it is stronger than the Lot of Fortune(fate) which is why you have a freewill chart.

Therefore, make your decision and take the initiative. You can make your hopes and wishes come to pass. The stars are there to assist you.

Many thanks to all of you! :)

So.... what's my story. My friends and other people have urged me towards acting but my family has made me think that it is the worst choice for me because I don't have even a bit of talent. I've always wanted it and enjoyed while being the centre of attention and especially being on scene but as years passed some circumstances in my private life led me toward psychology. So it is 2 years up to now that I'm studing psychology and yes, I can see it is something that I have a knack for and I am really interested in....as I am so keen on astrology too, but.... as time passes doubt arises because yes, maybe I can be helpful to some people but even now, I can be helpful, indeed. But when I think about my life and my happiness I am not sure that I can work like a psychologist or astro-psychologist or something like that because I can't imagine making money out of it because I don't feel like helping for money but like doing it just for the sake of it. And I can't imagine it being my real profession but just a part of my life, not the whole of it. That is why two years after I turned to psychology, I felt about it like something I have to know and learn how to use it for good, but not the something that would make ME feel better, not the real thing for me. I felt that I want to live my life not for the others but for myself, too and that if I continue my education only focussed on that, I shall not be happy.
And that is why I turned to you. I've always been defending the power of freewill, but now have to admit that I feel scared - knowing that there is not only one possible way for me, to which I'd be led by the power of destiny. It is scary to know that I have to make my decision when it does not go with the flow. That is I've always had luck and relied on good chance so that things just happened and that was pretty good for me. Now it seems I have to make things happen for me. And it's quite a bit scary. But the thrill is great, too. ;)
Thank you once more and my appologies for my English but it isn't my native language. Greetings!:)

Psychodrama?

[illyria]

Psychodrama?

Well, it is interesting but somehow i won't feel comfortable in that role because when there is "drama" i am not able of being very reasonable and it is serious because of the "psycho". That is if i am a part of a consultation, i should be concentrated on the patient but the methods of psychodrama somehow don't allow me that because i focus a lot of attention to myself, my voice etc.
