Midheaven in Aquarius ♒︎ in the natal chart

Public Life: Having your Midheaven point in the natal chart in the sign of Aquarius indicates a public persona that is unique, quirky, and possibly quite bizarre. You enjoy playing to your tastes often giving little mind to what other people think of you. Not necessarily a life of fame or prominence you desire to live authentically. 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.

2nd House: 

Keywords: The keywords associated with the 2nd house are values, self-worth, resources, finances, material possessions, sensuality, physical body, belongings, beliefs, and ownership. 

Succedent House Type: A Succedent house type is ruled by a fixed sign. Taurus is the fixed earth sign ruling the 2nd house. 

The 2nd house in astrology is the area of life where we develop a relationship with our resources and belongings. In this area of the chart you are called to evaluate your attachments to the material world. In addition, the 2nd house is the place where you learn the value of self-worth, pleasure, satisfaction, and delight. Planets placed in this part of the chart will partially represent your capacity to generate wealth, resources, and income. Planets here need to experience life “hands on.” 

The 2nd house symbolizes your relationship with possessions and values. This can relate on a spiritual, physical, or emotional level. How you define yourself based on what your belongings are, your beliefs, the money you have, the relationships you are in, or anything else you can use as a physical definer of who you are can be experienced through the 2nd house. Deciding what you own or if your possessions “own” you is a core lesson of this area of the astrological chart.
