Free Astrology Advice: Horary Question – Should I Write?
February 23, 2007 by admin
Horary Question:
I am currently a stay-at-home mom, and before that I was a teacher. However, I am still wanting to work. What is the best career path for me? Does writing play any part in my future? I would like to know, because for the last year I’ve been laboring away on a novel and since the baby I never seem to have time to return to that passion.
—T.
Nina Gryphon:
Dear T.,
For vocational questions, it is best if we have a few alternatives to examine, since the number of jobs out there in the world is literally infinite. You provided one possibility, which is writing, and we can certainly discuss that. However, you will see that there are other possibilities in the chart, and this way, I can only guess what is appropriate to your situation. The horary question for your chart is below:
In this horoscope, writing is going to be shown by Mercury, which is the planet naturally ruling intellectual pursuits such as writing. We see that Mercury is in Pisces, and it is retrograde. Mercury is separating from the Sun at 5° Pisces, and the Sun rules you in this horoscope, because it is the ruler of the first house of self. So at first glance, we could say that you and your writing are on divergent paths.
As you said, a big part of the problem is that you’re busy taking care of your baby. And, of course, the chart shows that. Mercury is in the sign of its detriment and fall in Pisces, so we have to look at the ruler of Pisces to see what is afflicting Mercury. That planet is Jupiter, ruler of your fifth house of children. Moreover, Jupiter is in the detriment of Mercury, in Sagittarius. So the baby harms the writing.
Let’s see what lies ahead, however. We see that the Moon will shortly square Mercury, and indeed, the Moon has just entered Mercury’s sign, Gemini. So you have been thinking about taking up writing again. My concern is that the writing will turn out to be yet another chore for you. The fact that the Moon and Mercury are applying with a difficult square aspect tells me that there will be some effort involved here, and it may not be entirely pleasant. Also, Mercury is disposited by the ruler of Pisces, Jupiter, so the writing will always have to take a backseat to the needs of the baby.
Shortly, Mercury will enter Aquarius by retrograde motion. At that point, Mercury is going to be Peregrine, which is a considerable step up from its bad state in Pisces. However, in Aquarius, Mercury will also be in the detriment of the Sun, so we see that it’s going to be harming you. Most likely, it will be hard to both be a new mother and a writer.
Usually, when we are provided no vocational options, we cast about for any other likely planet. Here, I would have to go with Mars, which is in its exaltation and in house of its joy, the sixth house. Mars in the sixth house of illness might indicate some kind of medical profession, so this is one alternative you could investigate.
