Hmmm, this is an interesting thread. Let's see what my MC says
MC in Aries
opposition libra saturn (3rd)
opposition libra pluto (3rd)
opposition scorpio jupiter (4th)
square aquarius venus (7th)
trine sagittarius neptune (6th)
Also mars, MC ruler, is in virgo (3rd). It trines my venus and sextiles my sagittarius uranus (5th)
MC in aries, I guess, would motivate me as some kind of trailblazer. So far, this has shown up in trying a few different professions, and not really sticking with any of them
The most notable aspect to my MC is a triple opposition to saturn, pluto, jupiter. With Mars hanging out nearby, there is a huge focus on the third house (crossing over to fourth house). I have been an English teacher, editor, research writer, interviewer for social research, ummmmm, what else?
Oh yes, I also have had a five year casual career life-modelling for artists. Perhaps that relates to MC square aquarius venus, or the MC ruler (mars) sextile uranus in the fifth house of self expression?? hehe.
I have an undergraduate degree in Anthropology and Sustainable Development, and am studying for my Masters in International Development. These seem to tie in with just about everything
I have read that hard aspects to MC are not necessarily so "difficult", would anyone consider this true, or false?
