You figure out the game of life quite early on and are open to experimentation of different lifestyles throughout your life journey. 

Career Possibilities: Some career possibilities for a person with this placement include computer programer, website developer, or a scientist of any variety. You often have a very technical mind, enjoying work with concrete tasks but also meaning. Other careers that would suit you well include humanitarian work, radio host, digital nomad, astrologer, movie director, artist, engineer, political activist or organizer, professor, science fiction writer, social worker, and community education or outreach. 

Ruling Planet: The ruling planet of your Aquarius Midheaven is Uranus. This implies that you may have a round about way of arriving at a career path. You may choose to travel the world extensively instead of saving up a retirement fund in a traditional job. This placement allows for you to be inventive with your public persona or career path.
