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.
South Node in Cancer ♋︎ in the natal chart
If your South Node is in Cancer in the natal chart then this indicates past lives or past situations in your current life in which you felt like a victim to your own destiny. This placement indicates a tendency to narrate your life and see your experiences as a story playing out in front of you. You have a deep connection to the cycles of the universe and often see yourself as flowing within it. This has lead you to be fatalistic in many ways or caused you to develop a profound sense of surrender in which you do not feel you can direct your own fate.
At times you may fall into depression or victim tendencies preferring to get sucked into the narratives of the past, family, and relationships. You are learning to understand your involvement in these situations and the role you can play in directing your own life path. As a natural storyteller you are beginning to understand your ability to weave your own narrative.
Individuals with the South Node in Cancer are developing a fierce sense of ownership and control over their own lives. Letting go of your dependency on others or an over attachment to your “story” is paramount in your healing journey.
