Hello everyone,
I would like to ask the advice for my career/work/job sector. Don't know if it has something to do with Saturn conjunct MC in 10th house and Chiron in the 6th house, I have suffered long time in this sector. There has been lots of frustration and now I think it's about time for a real change.
I have chosen graphic design for my study because I am sensitive to artistic and aesthetically beautiful things. It turns out not so well after my graduation. I wasn't very into it, especially when it's commercial graphic design that doesn't give you much freedom to express yourself, also the fact that working intensively in front the computer screen made me sick. I have thought about being an artist but somehow I was blocked, I don't know why, but I feel I am enveloped by a heavy load of guiltiness towards my family. I feel I need to make money, need to have a job that's socially acceptable to honour my parents so that I can reward them with good paid salary (I am from Taiwan and it's very common to pay back your parents when you start to make money). However, it never happened, instead I am in a vicious circle: I quit graphic design and I come back, then I quit, then I come back again. Because of that I am nearly 40 but I have not practically established a "career".
Apart from art, it's been long time I am interested in esoteric domains like astrology, tarot and I Ching and alternative healing: Chinese medicine, flower essence and energetic healing. I wonder if it is my true calling and my vocation, especially seeing Chiron trines my North Node and MC. A plan starts to grow in my mind: quit the computer and all those skills I've built, and start from zero, work in a massage house to learn the foundation of massage therapy, enough to pay my living and save some money to study Chinese medicine and flower essence --- become a therapist in alternative energetic healing.
I would like to ask advice from you if it is a chart that suits this path. I somehow have the intuition that it is the way, but to quit everything I've built so far (although not much, but there is something) just seems too scary. Also, there is still a part of me very attached to beauty and aesthetics, that means the work environment has to be aesthetically pleasant, with nice design and good taste. What I found very often is that people in the healing field cares less about beauty outside, but more focused inside. For me it's both important, but sometimes you do find imbalance and conflict, for example, people who work in the fashion might look good exterior, but the fashion world is full of egoistic people in a very competitive rat race. I don't know if this has something to do with Chiron in Taurus, I feel the wound is not being able to express beauty in my daily work.
Here is the link to my chart:

Looking forward to shed some light in my career sector.
Thanks a lot!
