Concerning careers and potentials, are my observations right?

(Keeping in mind that I've considered careers in writing, working with animals, using my intuition plus my partner wants me to team up with him to do real estate projects)

My birth chart is in my signature, below.

What I've learnt from research:

(1) Capricorn in 6th could potentially support working with animals as a daily, secure job.
(2) My Juno, Saturn, Moon and Venus's placements could imply marrying into money, or being business partners with other half. (My boyfriend is the business man type with big ambitions, he's also a little wealthy).
(3) Stellium in 4th house could indicate a career associated with the home (real estate?).
(4) Capricorn in 6th could also support my 3rd observation.
(5) MC in Taurus supports success in the arts, or perhaps just using creativity?
(6) Ruler of MC in 2nd house could imply making money via my MC energies.
(7) MC trined with the house of creativity, further indicating potential success through creative endeavours.
(8) Ruler of 2nd is Mercury, which could indicate money making through Mercury energies (writing?).
(9) Mercury sextiles the planets of the 5th house, the house of creativity. Creative writing?
(10) Venus trines 5th house planets, possibly strengthening creativity and the love of it.
(11) Intuitive planets in the 5th house indicating using intuition for creative purposes?
(12) Successful intuitive pursuits supported by the trines with intuitive planets Uranus and Neptune, to the MC. And possibly even the stellium in Scorpio?

Let me know if there's anything I've missed or if there's anything I'm wrong about.
Opinions appreciated

*edited: (13) Ruler of 6th house in 7th, could indicate a partner who's connected to my job, or something along them lines?

Oh, and (14) Ruler of 11th (house of friendships, fame) is Mercury.

Hi. I think your interpretations are perfectly valid examples of the placements you've listed. But I didn't see any mention of the Sun. Its very important to try to accommodate the needs and values of the Sun's sign, house and aspects in one's vocational path. If it were just a job to earn money, then the Sun's involvement is perhaps less important - it can be fulfilled elsewhere - but if you're talking about your calling in life (or at least the next phase of your life) then the Sun should be a strong factor in your interpretation.

I didn't think to consider the Sun. My sun's in the 3rd house, conjunct to Jupiter also in 3rd. What's your interpretation on this? If you don't mind

Re: Concerning careers and potentials, are my observations right?

Hi. I just had a look at your chart. The Sun being the chart ruler makes it especially important. It seems to me to be a very cultured and ethical Sun, in Libra in the 3rd house, conjunct Jupiter and trine the angular Saturn in Aquarius. So this would suggest that you need to do something in which you need to feel that you are living in accord with your own morality, and perhaps ideally something where you feel that you are making the world a more beautiful/harmonious place in some way. Maybe this could be simply in the way that you interact with the world through your job, but perhaps also by pursuing a vocation which involves a more direct pursuit of beauty and harmony, like art or social change.

And then of course there is the square to the Uranus Neptune conjunction, which interestingly falls in the Sun's natural house, the 5th. There is a theme emerging here, with Saturn on the 7th cusp trine Sun in the corresponding sign of Libra, and also with Saturn and Uranus being in mutual reception, with Uranus in the Sun's natural house. Leaving aside Neptune for a moment, there seems to be a strong need to find and live by principles of one sort or another, even if this manifests quite gently rather than evangelically. Moon in Libra also adds to the need for harmony, too, of course, especially given its conjunction with Venus. Venus (the Sun ruler) being in Virgo brings a need to find that harmony with one eye on how much practical use you are being to others, and how well you have understood and refined the particular skills you can offer in this regard. With Venus ruling the MC from the 2nd house, this is particularly important.

Following the rulership trail leads us from Venus in Virgo to Mercury in Scorpio, and a 4th house which has a very different feel to the parts of the chart discussed so far. I'm tempted to speculate that there were somehow two sides to your father, or perhaps a side of him that you saw and a side of him that you some how anticipated or longed for on some level. But I suggest this tentatively. If this does happen to be the case, then resolving any residue from this could be a useful stage in integrating the Scorpio 4th house planets with the airy/earthy features discussed above.

And of course its not just any planets in Scorpio, it includes Mars and Pluto. So to some extent the planets are divided neatly according to their inherent natures. Sun, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn are inherently civilised planets falling in civilised signs. Meanwhile Mars and Pluto are in Scorpio! The Moon and Mercury would seem to be the anomolies when looking at the chart in this way, which perhaps will help you to integrate the watery energy with the rest of the chart.

The Scorpio 4th house planets suggest to me the possibility of a deeply embedded sense of being bound to some unfathomable process, that you must at some point surrender to. This could be purely a personal thing, but it could also be experienced in a wider context of social change in some form. This part of your chart brings depth and staying power, and although it might feel uncivilised to other parts of your psyche (whether you are experiencing it internally or through projections onto others) it really gives your whole being a richness - an extra dimension. If you don't express these Scorpio energies directly through your work, you'll probably need to find some outlet outside of work so that they don't make your home life too intense. Or perhaps you'll choose to live in a way which is inherently intense anyway - building your own house or being a war correspondent or any other number of possible a ways of life that would force you to dig deep to find new resources from beyond the boundaries of your familiar self.

But I would imagine that you'll need something in your life that involves probing and pushing boundaries. Physical exercise could be a good way of siphoning off any build up of Scorpio energy.

With the Neptune squaring the Sun along with Uranus, it does seem a deeply idealistic Sun, with the power to envisage new ways of being and channel them through individual creative effort into the world. The trine to Saturn will help a great deal in grounding the visions, as will Venus in Virgo. Meanwhile the Scorpio planets will provide great staying power, and although Scorpio and Pluto are not idealistic energies in the way that Uranus and Neptune are, all of the outer planets are concerned with change on every level. So it might be worth you having a look round to see if any social causes grab you as possible career options.

Chiron in the first is square the nodal axis and trine the MC. So it would perhaps be useful to reflect on whether or not you have felt unfairly treated by life. If there is something, then making peace with that will possibly put you in touch with a sensitivity to others in similar situations that will play a part in your life purpose.

Well, I went on a bit more that I intended. Hopefully there's something in there to take away. Its very difficult to talk about an isolated part of the chart when the whole chart is available. Though I do think its worth sometimes playing around with specific placements too, as a kind of mental gymnastics/yoga which then feeds into chart synthesis.
