My question that hit my mind this morning after waiting about for many days after posting a written snail mail application for a gallery job, as the person who is responsible for desplaying the works, setting up the show, who will be in, and representing 800 artists in the graphic illustration market.
It sounds like alot of work, I will be responsible for matching up the buyer with the artworks: it will be about opening 8 shows a year and trying to display and sell as much work as possible; but I also suspect it will be about "creating the selling environment"- This is something I am eager to at least try for some reason, as these things never appealed to me before.
ALSO this will be me, an artist representing artists, but yet having no personal "ego", as this is not about selling MY artwork, (I'm excluded from being in any groups like this because of the closed market of Sweden at this time) however it does mean I can be the collective "ego" for many who need the representation, and I hope to just get a chance to do this job.. but as other things happen to be, I only sent in my CV and my letter of aplication.. the rest is up to them considering that if I communcate in the best way about my ablity and why they should hire me for such a responsible possition, then of course, there is an interview process, and then, if they like me, the job is mine, but those steps seem far away.
The Question: "Will I get a chance to try out the gallery job, or is there something else I am more suited to?"
Please note I did add alot of asteroids, but they are there for a reason, and I note that Vesta is conjunct the POF: I also note that Eros and Psyche are about to conjunct in Leo in the 11th house, something I feel relates to representing art for a group, as you have to "seduce" your public, and your group as well.
But the basics, it is Venus that is the ruler for the ASC of the chart, in Mutual reception to Mercury in the first house, (communcations but also ruling the 9th and 12th houses, as a foreigner and a behind the scenes person) with Mars, the ruler of the 7th (other people) but also in Libra (the detriment of Mars), in the first house (dignified). It seems to sugest that I can represent "other people" And the Moon as the Co ruler of the chart as well as the 10th house in the 11th also sugests a "career" or "publicly representing a group" The Moon will be conjunct Venus after it Sextiles Jupiter) Jupiter's placement in the 2nd house seems to say something about Money or Movable properties: Jupiter in mutual reception with Pluto, is the ruler of the 3rd house, the 2nd house ruler being in 3rd house, saying that "communcations lead to money, and being able to communcate powerfully is what this needs in order to make any money" But also the co ruler of the 2nd house is Mars, Mars representing other people (the 7th) in the first house. It means also, how I present myself (and those others, them) will lead to a great amount of chances to earn money.
But lets look at the ruler for the 6th house; although this job is certainly a 10th house thing, what of the day to day as a person responsible for a gallery and 800 artists and 8 shows a year? Does it fit?
The 6th house ruler is Neptune, Neptune and then co ruler Jupiter. I see this as alot of work from home, alot of "inside" work, planning, but also visual things, but once again with Jupiter as a co ruler, and in the 2nd house in Scorpio, it says to me the statements must be powerful; it represents, to me the ablity to make other's work, including my own work (from an effort point of view) into money for me.
But if I am representing others; if there is a chance of getting this job, will I make them money? it goes to the 8th house, and what is the 8th house ruler?
The 8th house ruler of the chart is VENUS, the ASC ruler. It is their Money, it is their Job, (12th is the second house to the 11th house as well as the 6th house to the 7th house) I believe that this is possibly a good sign.
The passing of the Moon from the 11th to the 12th house and conjunct Venus, later, POF and finally the Sun, the 11th house ruler, I see it actually possible to get this job, and the events seem to sugest that I CAN. Even the eventual Pluto Square to the Moon, sugests that I can...
There is also the Movement of Mercury: Mercury in the 1st about to Semi Sextile Jupiter but later Trined to Neptune, the 6th house rulers. Venus and Mercury are at work getting me a job
.
I also see the Vertex as being a sort of "hand of fate" pushing the direction, and that perhaps the "others" and the "job"(Neptune at 17 degrees) seem to be moving towards each other as well..
I'd like to see how this could play out.
If anyone wishes to add anything I may have over looked, perhaps those degree faces that I constantly over look (until after I print out a chart and sit down with it, some books and a nice hot cup of tea
I thought that we could all see how this will play out, but it seems naturally quite "positive" for some reason, so I'm hopeful, but I was hopeful with other things, and they didn't pan out.. even if I was qualified, the lack of a Swedish driver's licence was the disqualifyer.. as a photographer's assistant needs to get around fast.
Anyway, I hope this was a learning experience, as it certainly has been for me! Please feel free to discuss!
take care all!

Well, it's the 10th either way so it's hard to tell if you will get the museum position or another...see what I mean? You will get a position, that's for sure and it seem that it will be more associated with Virgo, mercury, 12th house occupations than Venus, 1st house public eye occupations.
