Midheaven in Fire Signs
MC/IC
The Midheaven (MC) is a great indicator of your public status and your career in your natal chart. The
MC is in the 10 th House and this shows how comfortable a person is with speaking with the public, as
well as, what would be his or her career.
When speaking about the MC we cannot forget about the IC, these are both opposites to each other,
however, they both need to work together and please each other in a way, so that you are achieving
your mission.
So, when looking at your midheaven, you cannot disregard your IC (which is in your fourth house). The
IC represents what it is that your true desire and the midheaven shows how that will be done in the
public world.
Your IC is what you internally keep to yourself, and who you realize you are (which is about 6 years old),
and hide it from the world, however, your MC is what you show the world.
The IC also represents the father figure, while the MC represents the mother figure in your natal chart.
To know your MC, you must know your date of birth and the exact hour you were born. Your MC is not
your solar sign. May I remind you that your MC is in your tenth house cusp, while your IC is in your
fourth house cusp and despite being opposite from each other, they are both very connected.
Below is a description of MC in the fire signs, however, you should take into consideration what planets
are matching your tenth house, as well as any other aspects that it might create. So make sure to see if
you have any other planets in your MC and if they are creating any other aspects with other planets as
well.
Midheaven in Aries
If your Midheaven is in Aries this means that your IC is in Libra, you crave harmony and balance. You
praise beauty and peace between family members. You have this need to feel special and to please
everyone around you especially the public, you have this urge of getting out, however, you analyze well
all of your options and brainstorm well before doing so. A lot of people might underestimate you,
however, you have been born with great talent, and you have a great way of showing others how wrong
they are. At some point in your life, you will show how strong you are to the public in whatever it is that
you do. People see you as this strong independent person and who is not submissive. In terms of
career, Midheaven in Aries needs to own his or her career, needs to be recognized, and you need to lead
whatever it is that you do. With a Libra IC, there is a high possibility that your career is beauty oriented,
or you might even be some kind of a beauty icon or model.
Midheaven in Leo
If you Midheaven is in Leo this means that your IC is in Aquarius, you crave justice and you have felt very
restricted growing up. This is why your Leo Midheaven provides you with the will of showing people
who you are. Since you’ve lived mostly restricted due to your IC, it is no surprise that now you are free,
that you will show who you are and live what you weren’t able to live. So, in the public eye, many
people will see you as this young spirit who shines, you have a great gift at creating the big picture in
whatever you do and achieving your goals. In whatever it is that you do, you are extremely creative and
need to express yourself through what is innovative and original. Above all, you need to be recognized
and you do not tolerate any lack of respect, especially regarding your work. You are extremely loyal to
who you are and to others, you are a hard-working person who will do everything in your power to
achieve your goals, however, never disrespecting or stepping over others. Leo in the midheaven is what
we call the superstar position because just like any superstar or celebrity you own the stage, and you
need to feel that you are admired by fans or followers. Some of MC Leos are great at vlogging and have
many followers for example.
Midheaven in Sagittarius
Midheaven in Sagittarius means that your IC is in Gemini, meaning that you have always enjoyed
communicating with yourself when growing up. You were probably one of those kids who would write
every day in a journal or write even letters or big text messages. Your midheaven grants you with
spirituality and philosophical views and bright energy, you love to communicate, and you are very
outgoing. As a child, you had struggled to communicate with others, however, as growing up you will
notice that this is what you truly want, you want a career that allows you to express yourself freely and
even share knowledge with others. Most of you might be teachers, mentors, explorers, or even
astrologers. Your Gemini IC grants you with the will to learn, while your MC Sagittarius provides you
with the gift of teaching others what you’ve learned as well. You are highly loyal to what you believe in,
and you work hard for what it is that you want to achieve in life. People see you as the wise one, with
positive energy and a positive mindset, however, you shall be careful because your curiosity can lead
you to do things that may give you a bad reputation, despite that, you have all it takes to achieve your
goals and mission in life.
