Have at it. I'm open to advice, observations, and nagging.

Hi Nua Kua. I'm just going to read your chart alone if you don't mind. It's very interesting....

There isn't much I or anybody could nag to a Virgo Rising about, since they are their own worst critic and my personal favorite. Likewise, I am my own worst enemy. I think Pisces (their opposite) isn't so night and day to Virgo in being a cynic or particular.
There are no other Pisces Risings around to confirm this, but I feel my descending a lot. Maybe it's just Mercury in 1st...

Venus in 20* Capricorn tells me you are not the typical Sag who values adventure or philosophy over romance.
Pluto in the 12th H is interesting. Are you secretive about death matters or afraid to speak of them, preferring to keep the subject private?

Mercury in Cap takes their time in responding, coming up with thorough responses and isn't much of the quick banterer who could go back and forth all day. Both Venus and Mercury are in the 4th H of Cancer (family) and so the way you express your love could be Maternal and so are your actions (Mars sharing the cluster).

Sun in 3rd, H of intellect which could mean for a Sagittarius, you don't simplify things and have an open mind, and you may have felt like or related to Gemini.

Moon in Exact Square to Rising and on IC in 4th H could mean you have emotional struggle with moving. You've had to move a lot in your life and it was especially hard on you but it's become so much apart of you and helped you grow...

A career in remolding or flipping houses. The ruler of the mc is in the 4th with its ruler saturn in the 5th house of creativity. At the least you could a consulatant for such with the ruler of the sag 4th house cusp, jupiter in the 7th with its ruler mars in the 4th conjunct mercury (planet of intellect/communcations) the mc ruler.

Since Gem on MC (Career), a Gemiian career seems fit; likely. Air Signs can juggle many different tasks at once, especially the mentality, are quite accomodating. There's heightened social skills and intellect. The needed empathy is there, but an ability to step outside the box and see a bigger picture keeps them from getting too attached to things, maintaining a free mind, which is important to them.

Personality wise, with Neptune in 2nd H there has been confusion about material things or finances.

I agree Cowfish Gemini traits will play a big part in their career. Also, there is a possiblity of being an interior decorator or an architect.

I'll just mention one thing.

For starters you have most of your planets below the horizon, therefore you will tend to be an inward thinking person, therefore being out on the stage or in politics, or a manger type or a salesman type probably aren't for you.

I would recommend looking into those types of jobs where you do your own research or writing or the trades where you can work alone in your own environment.

Maybe I’ll add more later, but you are a Sag sun sign and generally those folk like to travel around the world.

[Nu Kua]

Thanks, you all pointed out things that are accurate.

Raj, yes I am someone who likes to research and dig deeply into topics. In fact if I am doing such, or even studying a horoscope, I kind of move into another world for a few days while I immerse myself in the study. During that time, the family is on their own when it comes to dinner and what-not. And you are right on in that I do prefer to work alone in a quite place, or alternatively, with music.

Juicejuffer and Cowfish- the Gemini aspect to the career thing must be relating to the work I've loved to do in the past dealing with the news media. I do have a knack for that. I only am not doing any news at all right now because my mind and soul needs a break from this crazy world, and the fact of the major discrepancies between what is really going on, compared to what is reported in the mainstream media (msm) is something very hard for me to deal with.

Another thing re Gemini could be writing. But it seems whatever I do, will be done with home as the main base, doesn't it?

Now the interior design thing or house-flipper thing is interesting to hear, because I am constantly working on design projects around the home, and I do get a big thrill from it. In fact we are getting ready to remodel our bathroom, out of necessity due to plumbing issues but I can't wait for the complete remodel of this shoe-box sized bathroom. (re astrology, the plumbing issues are reflected in that, we moved here when transit Pluto was right on my 4th house cusp! ) Most summers (but not the past two) I do paint interiors for $$$$. And, my partner says that he never knows what color the house will be when he gets home from work. He doesn't even know that I'm planning to take heat down in the living room down a few notches, from "cranberry" to "taupe".

Cowfish- I must also 'feel my DC' a lot, and maybe this is why I've had great friendships with Pisces in general, in spite of the Virgo rising and Sagittarius Sun.

You are exactly right in that I don't tend to verbally banter much! I do far more 'talking' online than I ever do in real life. And yes, I am very home oriented and yes again, I do tend to show love in mothering ways, like fixing dinner for people if they've been overworked or doing things for them. Also true that the Capricorn stellium really tempers down the Sag a lot. In my youth I perceived that as being trapped; now I consider it a good thing.

Moon in Exact Square to Rising and on IC in 4th H could mean you have emotional struggle with moving. You've had to move a lot in your life and it was especially hard on you but it's become so much apart of you and helped you grow...

Yes, actually, until about 9 years ago it is true, we did have to move a lot, sometimes due to the craziest, most unpredictable circumstances, and this was difficult in so many ways but yes, I did learn SO much about life and had a ton of personal growth. I wonder what kind of person I'd be if there had not been such struggles.

Oh, and the Neptune in the 2nd! Good lord, I do not know how we made it in the early years. Confusion about finances- no doubt. I think when young I never worried about bills because I just assumed a bag of money would drop from the sky just when it was most needed. Needless to say, lack of money falling from the sky meant learning to be more responsible! I don't really care much about money for the sake of having it; actually I can easily envision a much happier world that isn't run by profit margins and where people work together for the things they need to live well, sans money. That's one of the reasons I garden.

Thanks for the input, everybody.

She is probably such a natural with it that it doesn't seem all that special to her! If only she knew... I've killed many a plant in my quest to learn how to garden, and I still do ridiculous things. In example, for some reason likely related to Pinot Noir, I thought it would be cool to plant a few Russian Mammoth sunflowers in the greenhouse. That was several months ago... now they are way to big for it and I've had to do all sorts of things to get them to lay down in such a way that the heads, just now beginning to open, are not pressed up against the top of the greenhouse as if they attempting to lift the roof. Of course being sunflowers, they are determined to face the sun, so now they have several crooks in the stems, like a roller coaster, due to me bending them and them straightening right back out just like they please. They are determined to show their glory, which convinces me sunflowers are Leo's.
What was I thinking? They can get upwards of 12 feet tall!

How does it feel to have Moon on DC?

My Virgo Rising Mom in law has a garden and grows flowers. Right now she has some angel trumpets? They're white and she wants me to paint those. Apparently they only bloom at nighttime.

Your greenhouse sounds like a lot of fun. If there was a way to transplant those sunflowers, but probably not...

what is Pinot Noir?

I haven't thought of St. Gabrielle's Trumpets for years! That is the name I know them by, but I just looked it up and they are the same thing. What memories! My Mom used to grow those and they are most awesome. She had the white ones.
Yes, just as the sun is done setting but while there is still light in the air, you can actually watch the "trumpets" begin to quiver... then suddenly one after the other they open up to full bloom! It's amazing to see. The scent is unbelievable. The blossoms themselves are short lived- they only bloom for one night, then they close in upon themselves and lay there flaccid the next morning, exhausted and spent from the glory. I hope you get a chance to watch them bloom.

Pinot Noir is a red wine.

I might could have transplanted the sunflowers 5 feet ago, but they are way too big now.
