WhatkindofjobshouldIlookfor?

[Amoroso]

Dear All,

My husband and I need to completely change our lifestyle if the marriage is to stay vital. This means a radical change of job for him, and a radical change of work schedule for me. It means alot of different things are going to have to be moved into place.

Here in the states. when I was a senior in highschool, the school's marching band led an annual Halloween parade, and all the various squads of instrument players dressed up in costume. That year the piccolo squad dressed as a dragon and marched in a single file, under a huge colorful dragon-tent encased in large cardboard boxes and we were joined together by rope, with me leading the way in the front. Gosh, as a write that it sounds torturous! I spent the entire parade straining against the front box and screaming directions (not a whole lot of music-making went on), leading 7 other people who could not see where they were going around the community streets in the dark.

I feel like John and I are in are own Halloween parade and I am leading again......

Anyway, here is the question: "What sort of job should I look for?" I am wondering if I should simply expand what I am doing or look for something completely different. So without further explanation, let me know your ideas.

I am interested in hearing what others have to say before I write my own observations. That Neptune at the IC bothers me, I must confess.

Blessings,

Hi Amoroso,

well I am far from the best person to interpret a horary, but will set the ball rolling with a couple of observations anyway...

I'll take the sixth as the job - its ruler, Mars, is on the DC in the 7th which is to do with your idea that a new job will enliven your marriage. Mars is co-ruler for you too, are you the initiator of this change? thats a lot of red on that chart

Next in my mind is Jupiter rising - and moon making her last contact there... you've entered a new phase of growth and expansion. Money is not an issue is it? Moon applying to the AC tells me that you'll rise to whatever challenge presents.
With mars both opposite Jupiter and square saturn, maybe now is not a good time to look for a new job, but perhaps you will be working for yourself? I don't know what you're doing at the moment! Looks responsible though.

Anyway, as I said, I'm only learning this type of astrology, so apologies if this makes no sense.

joy,
pm

Dear Amoroso,

First does the chart qualifies to read with AC in via combusta ? I think YES FOR YOU since your natal AC also falls in via combusta.

AC via combusta and Moon just out of it and last over Jupiter lord of 2nd and 5th in 1st. You have to make huge sacrifice (alas Sag and Pis) to implement the changes. Unfortunately the nature of question forbid the chart to assess for the essentially of proposed change.

Your natal strength, the VENUS rapt conjunct Chiron opposing Rx Saturn in 9th. Both venus and chiron represent music. Venus is very weak by house placement and essential dignity although 10th house speaks of fine arts with its lord in 2nd. The horary 10th falls in zodiac 5th the Leo with Sun in 2nd (skills). Sun trines Mars in 7th who oppose second lord Jup in 1st. Mars gained strength though in fall. And Jupiter by essential dignity suggest "interest in the matter" - whatever you take up. I suggest you go for financial management in you own field.

Mercury exactly squares 5th cusp and also gained strength though in fall. Mercury in 8th rapt conjunct anti-vertex. The envisaged change is Karmic and you gain by it since Mer is lord of 11th house and is devoid of affliction.

Wish you good luck

Kris

PS: Can you elaborate on the circumstances that lead to present situation ? No compulsions, if interested only.

Dear PM and Kris,

Thanks much--I think you both ahve described things pretty well. I wasn't thinking clearly when I cast the chart (3:00 am) and could not read it.

Kris, I don't mind elaborating on the circumstances but will come back to this later. (By the way, I was wondering how you are doing.) We are expecting family and I have a lot to do.

I am self-employed and take on contracted projects.

More soon,
Amoroso

Dear All,

Kris asked what are the present circumstances that led to the current situation. All I can say is that the Chiron/Uranus opposition in the natals of my husband and me, plus that same opposition in our composite (we're about the same age) led to an enormous crack in our foundation, which ultimately is a GOOD thing.

In our composite, Saturn sits smack dab on the IC. If we are willing to go the distance, he is there to help. Somewhere recently, didn't Jade write "foundations, foundations?"

We have to make some mighty changes, many of them scary and requiring huge leaps of faith in order to turn some things around. It involves basic issues between us that have never been solved, which are related to basic issues WITHIN us which have never been resolved. In many ways, it would be easier to split, but then those inner demons don't get a turn on the dance floor.

He seems to be up for working it out. So am I. (That Mars over the DC line is extremely accurate!) What did Kim say about the Chiron return awakening the wound but leading to resolution?

But I need to bring in more income so he can bring in less. We need to adopt an even more simple life style. (Our son did not get a cell phone until he was 17, and we were considered really out of sync around here, believe me!) I have pretty well decided just to expand what I am doing, now that I am well.

But I am curious, how does this show up in the chart?

Thanks much,
Amoroso

Amosoro!!!

Forest-leaves and trees!

It shows up in the chart like a big and LOUD and shiny brass band!

What do you think Jupiter, ruler of the 2nd house of 'talents, skills, resources and 'that which supports you or will support you' means on the ascendant if not, 'I will expand my talents and resources!'

Mars in the 7th says you are motivated to do this 'because of your husband'...you expend your energy and intention on his behalf. The Square to Saturn opp Neptune is about the issues that lie beneath, in your relationship and in yourself right now.

The moon makes no major approaching aspects so little changes in your 'line' of work. You will do that which you already do, just MORE of it. The final semisextile to Pluto says you will be transformed by the process. The final aspect to Fortuna blesses it!

His ruler is in his 9th--he's looking deeply at his sense of meaning and purpose in life.

Your rulers are in your 2nd and 7th. You are looking at YOUR talents and recourses, what you value, what gives you a sense of peace and pleasures and beauty AND you are looking at your marriage, from the foundations up!

Make sense?

Happy New Year!!!!

Der Amoroso,

I understand the gravity of situation. It does not matter not knowing the issue(s) in greater detail. I feel your mind is wobbling with the ideas of breaking and continuing the relation with your husband. Its really painful. Do you know, unresolved issues always exist in a relation, in any relation for that matter. Willingness to continue keep the relations intact. It happened for more than 20 years and why can't it go further. It can I feel.

Astrology is what I perceive at this moment that can help you at this conjunction. It is not pursuation but insulation. Yes. Keep away from astrology for some time and see how things develop (hopefully improve). Insulate yourself from Chiron (astrology) energy. Couple of weeks back I went slow with astrology as indescribable sickness caught me looking into chiron. I improved as I deviated from astrology. This is one good way I can say from my experience. And the current post brought me back to write long, othewise I am going slow with astrology that you must have noticed.

I read somewhere that the personal life of occult practioners would very likely to be tragic. That may be true.

wish you all good things in life.

I know what you mean, Kris. Sometimes staying out of analytical mode is extremely helpful. I have been studying charts less and writing more, when time allows.

Say, Amoro, that 9th-house Saturn in Leo says publishing to me -- do you have any personal writings that are ready for market? You write so beautifully... Am I mistaken in recalling that you have some very sensual/erotic writings? Publishing your writing may enable you to share healing energy with others (the Venus/Chiron opposition...).

That Scorpio rising with Jupiter & Moon, opposing the Mars in Taurus, seems very luscious to me, and electrically/erotically charged by Uranus in the 4th. Reinforcing the pattern is the ruler of the 8th in the 2nd house of money & talent.

This is a very focused chart, with the flow of energy delineated into very concise grooves.

Apologies if I'm way off -- the chart just screams this to me! LOL

Dear Samina,

Thanks so much for your observations! As it turns out, I am trying very hard to organize and discipline my writing into some kind of publishable form. For the past 6 months I've gotten up about 5:30 to write or read for several hours before the day begins, and have been reading many of the "new memoirs" that are coming out. I have notes stuffed everywhere and have long since given up worrying about who in the family is going to accidentally read some of this stuff. It can't stay hidden forever!

But the more I write, the more I uncover and the more I am confused as to which form it needs to take. So I just keep writing and figuring out and researching venues.

I did send in one piece to a religious magazine and to a major newspaper. At least it is a start.

So I think there is some truth to what you read in this chart. My mind certainly wasn't on the writing when I asked the question, but it does show up. The moon is coming up on a sextile to Mercury.

Thanks for posting this!

Blessings,
Amoroso
