Help with my Quest for career

[Astrospective]

Hi,

This is my first post.

I want to say that I am so glad I found this forum. Seems like a great community . I was searching for answers about my future and help with choosing my career and I came across astrologyweekly.

I am at a junction in my life where nothing is making sense. I have options of what career I can choose but these options are not easy. I choose to purse one career and it seems to be a challenge but if I want to switch to another, the switch itself seems like a predicament.

So I was wondering if any of you can tell me what lies ahead and what would be the best career for me.

I really need some help, because frustration can be a horrible thing to handle.

I also want to say that my knowledge of astrology goes as far as reading yahoo / msn astrology. So if ask some basic questions please do not mistake them as ignorant or as to aggravate you.

I want to thank everyone for taking the time and helping me out.

hmm...never thought about anyone of those things.

I was looking into medicine as a potential field I could enter but restaurant management or foreign correspondence sound interesting.

Funny thing is I never cooked a real meal in my life!! except for the delicious pasta I make every once in awhile.

Thanks, olivia, for a quick reply.

Anyone have any other thoughts?


Also sorry for posting in the wrong forum

Thanks

Well if you were to give some ideas for which you are considering, or options for us to look at.

Your natal mercury (how you think and communicate) is the most challenged planet in your chart as it has 3squares.... two of which suggest a sharp mind but argumentative plus

Mercury square or opposition Neptune
Your mind is full of fantasies and illusions. It is hard for you to be objective and concrete with your ideas and you tend to be disorderly and lose concentration on your studies. Your extreme sensitivity may lead you to retreat to your fantasy world when you feel disappointed or hurt. Because of your creative and imaginative mind, you can excel in artistic achievements where you will communicate your ideas more easily. If you have grown up in a stable and harmonious home you will avoid your escapist tendency.
Alternate interpretation: Your mind is highly imaginative and creative and you possess dramatic, artistic, or musical abilities. As a child, you enjoyed daydreaming, fantasizing, pretending, and probably lived in "your own little world" a good deal. You perceive things which are not obvious to other people and you have an uncanny ability to "read" people and situations without being told anything about them. However, you must learn to discriminate between a true psychic perception and your imagination. Learning to discipline and focus your mind is necessary if you wish to use all of your creative potential. Otherwise, you could be simply a dreamer.

Communication with others is difficult for you because you often find words frustrating and inadequate to express your experiences and perceptions. Also, you may purposefully mystify or deceive others.

Sun opposite Pluto
http://www.cafeastrology.com/natal/sunplutoaspects.html

Your Pluto in 6th house shows you wants control, intensity in the type of work you do, co-workers and daily routines etc.
MC in Aquarius and modern ruler and tradtional ruler Uranus and Saturn are placed in your marriage house or business partnerships

Saturn in the Seventh House

The seventh house rules partnerships and marriages. That is, the seventh house is the way you relate to your closest friend or enemy. This house opposes the first. The first house signifies the way you project your energies onto others, while the seventh house signifies the energies you are looking for in a close relationship. You can think of it as that part of your own energies you want resonated or boomeranged from your partner. Traditionally the seventh, Libra, and Venus were equated. Venus rules relationships involving warmth and love. The seventh house is not naturally connected to love. Successful marriages are a combination of seventh house (partnership) and fifth house self-expression (love). Saturn in the seventh house may mean a number of things. If we follow the energy resonance line of thinking then you are probably drawn to saturnine people. You may very well have fewer relationships. While in a relationship you may feel weighed down by a sense of responsibility which may turn you off relationships. Or, you may find it difficult to build bridges with someone else. That may in turn keep you away from relationships. Don’t let this happen to you. Be aware of your predilection. Know that you might be the kind of person who takes relationships more seriously than most. Be aware that your sense of responsibility makes you a very good partner. Your partner benefits from your attitude. Advertise yourself as someone who might not get into relationships easily but when you do, they last forever.

Uranus in the Seventh House

Partners and people who you are in a one-on-one relationship with will complain about your erratic and inconstant ways. However, they will be charmed by your genuineness and simplicity. You may shy away from making a commitment and see relationships as a necessary evil. Your freedom loving ways make you hate feeling tied down. The whole idea of relationships may be slightly alien to your basic nature. In a partner you may search for a certain aloofness or love of personal freedom to feel secure. Your ideal partner enjoys his or her personal freedom as much as you do.

IF your time of birth is right your chart ruler is Venus and placed in 12th house with your Sun sign Aries. This is often called the house of 'self undoing' isolation, sacfices
Sun in the 12th House:

You have a tendency to be introspective and need some space and seclusion in order to pull up your strength. You may avoid the spotlight, and if you do find yourself in a public role, you tend to hide your true self behind that role! Because your will is directed inwards, you need to find a path for yourself that allows you to "get away from it all" at least some of the time. Honor your need to be alone with yourself, but avoid over-identifying with your inner world to the point that you truly feel alone in a crowd. You shine when you serve others in some way. Your compassion sets you apart from others, but try to work with it rather than let your compassion work against you by reinforcing your own sense of loneliness.
Alternate Interpretation: Some view this placement as the result of a misuse of power in past lives, because you are unduly hard on yourself. Your over-active mind is impressionable. You may become a square peg in a round hole if you wear the mask of others as your own. You require periods of seclusion for rest and self-examination, because you question why "no-one" understands you. If you seek counseling, you may become a counselor to help others avoid the pain of your experiences. You, too, are deserving. Acknowledge that if you are your own worst enemy, you can be your own best friend. -- Interpretation from the Spirit Success report.
Note that the Sun is more "comfortable" in some houses than it is in others. For example, the Sun's energy seeks to distinguish oneself as a separate identity. It feels very much "at home" in the fifth house which is its natural domain. In the twelfth, however, it is not as comfy-cozy! The twelfth house energy attempts to dissolve ego boundaries. The Sun is very personal, while the twelfth house is universal. The Sun represents the individual ego, and the twelfth house represents the collective. As such, the Sun in the twelfth house position is more complicated, both to live with and to interpret, than the Sun in the fifth house.

thanks astrooger50 for an indepth analysis of my chart and for an insight about astrology in your pm to me.

I am sorry for not being specific about my interests. Also I understand that astrology acts as a guide during my journey to my desired destination. So I will take the interpretations as guidance for what is good for me.

So I was looking into medicine (medical school) or film school. I am actually going to visit a film school tomorrow.

Now for the troubles. Every time I try to a step closer to medical school, the tougher it gets and now I am seriously consedering film school.

Astrologer50, you were right on the money when you said I was introspective. I tend to seclude myself when something troubles me. Also, you were right about my interest in music .

Again, sorry for not being specific and not viewing astrology what it actually is and does.

Thank you,
Astrospective.....life from the prespective of astrology

You might also like to look at your North Node in Aries in 12th house,cos this is what you are 'supposed' to be learning in this lifetime.;.

North Node in Aries and/or in the First House
With North Node in Aries, our South Node is in Libra. With North Node in the first house, our South Node is in the seventh house.
Co-dependency, indecisiveness, and a tendency for problems in one-to-one relationships are some of the issues this position suggests. With this position, we need to learn to love ourselves, to trust our instincts, to lead without fear. We tend to fall back on co-dependent relationships due to a fear of independence and of standing alone. We are indecisive and don't trust our instincts. We fear expressing our independent wishes and asserting ourselves because we prefer the comfort of being considered "good" people. Learning to act on our impulses, which implies a certain amount of self-confidence, is one of the lessons of this position. Learning that we can in fact live alone, which is a big fear of this position, will bring us to a point where we can offer ourselves to others in one-to-one partnership in a more balanced, healthy manner. Striving for internal peace, rather than focusing on achieving peace and balance in relationships, will improve our relationships and bring us happiness and satisfaction.

North Node in Pisces and/or in the Twelfth House
With North Node in Pisces, our South Node is in Virgo. With North Node in the twelfth house, our South Node is in the sixth house.
A tendency to worry unremittingly, to be plagued by vague (and sometimes not so vague) feelings of guilt about under-performing, to lack faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan, and to over-analyze ourselves and others are some of the issues this position suggests. With this position, we need to put some faith in spiritual powers or the "big picture", to let go of some of our fears that we are not doing enough, to love ourselves and others with more compassion and understanding, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that we (and others) are not perfect. We need to trust and develop our imagination, as well as our capacity for compassion. Learning to let go of some of our obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly will help us to achieve a greater sense of balance and to ease our fear of failure and guilty feelings.
