Transits to the Vocational Houses–Temp Job or


Career Departure?

©2007, 2010 by Donna Cunningham, MSW, reprinted from The


Mountain Astrologer (h p://www.mountainastrologer.com/)

If your work situation is changing and you need to figure out what’s
happening, where in the chart would you look for answers? You would,
of course, consider the three vocational houses — the 2nd, 6th, and 10th
— as well as the Midheaven (10th house cusp). Rather than looking
exclusively at natal placements, pencil in the current positions of the
planets from Jupiter on out. Any that are now transiting — or are about
to enter — one of the vocational houses would have the most direct and potentially longest-lasting
influence. These transits create new trends and working conditions that color your career potential
for anywhere from one year to 15 or 20, depending on the planet’s speed and the number of degrees
covered by that house. (A house can cover any where from 25-45 degrees, depending on the season
and latitude of birth). Let’s look at some ways your career may be affected by the planets’ current
positions.

Processes You May Experience During an Outer Planet Transit

The table below gives you an overview of what goes on during outer planet transits, regardless of the
houses involved. These aren’t the only possible expressions by any means. However, they show
typical processes, distilled to the essence. You might not experience the steps in the order given. You
might repeat a step several times due to retrograde and direct motion, or you may stall in the process
for long periods. By seeking insight and being willing to grow, you gain a great deal.

During a Saturn transit, in During a Uranus transit, in


some areas of life, you are: some areas of life, you are:

Confronting lack or loss Feeling stifled and restless


Taking responsibility Questioning the status quo
Eliminating dead wood Discovering like-minded
Ge ing your act together souls
Raising the bar Experimenting with
Performing at peak possibility
Waiting for the right time Straining at bonds
Reaping what you have Bursting out of
sown confinement
Reinventing yourself
Reconfiguring your life

During a Neptune transit, in During a Pluto transit, in


some areas of life, you are: some areas of life, you are:

discontented or lost Brooding on wrongs


Realizing you’re stuck Delving into causes of pain
Seeking a savior Unearthing the suppressed
Fooling yourself you’ve Reacting to your
found it discoveries
Submerging The Self in it Accepting your part in it
Finding out you’ve been had Healing the wounds
Turning to Spirit for peace Reclaiming your power
experiencing a rebirth

We’re in a time when several conflicting urges, desires, and sets of events are happening at once. Part
of the challenge in turbulent times like these is resolving these conflicts.

How do Outer Planet Transits Affect your Vocational Houses?

Suppose that one or more of these planets is currently transiting the 2nd, 6th, or 10th houses of your
birth chart. Your job situation and career path may change during a transit to a planet in one of those
houses or to the Midheaven. Briefly, here are some ways your work can be affected by an infusion of
new energies into any of those three houses.

During a Jupiter transit, you could be itching to grow and expand, feeling optimistic about your
chances, believing that you have wisdom to offer others, seeking opportunity, feeling lucky, and
spending more than you earn. (Jupiter finishes its stay in Aquarius in January, 2010, and moves into
Pisces for a one-year stay.)

During a Saturn transit, you could be taking on greater responsibility at work, ge ing your act
together, raising the bar, performing at peak, waiting for the right time, and reaping what you’ve
sown.

During a Uranus transit, you could be feeling stifled and restless, questioning the status quo,
discovering like-minded souls, experimenting with possibilities, straining at bonds, bursting out of
confinement, reinventing yourself, learning new technology, and reconfiguring your career path.

During a Neptune transit, you could be feeling discontented at work or that you’ve lost your life
purpose, realizing you’re stuck, seeking a magical escape or a soul’s dream, fooling yourself that
you’ve found it, finding out it was all an illusion, and turning to spirit for peace.

During a Pluto transit, you could be dealing with rich and powerful people, inclined to get involved
in office politics, brooding on wrongs, unearthing what has been suppressed, reacting to your
discoveries, healing your wounds, and reclaiming your inner power. What I’m describing here are
the early, back-to-the-drawing-board expressions of transiting planets — how they spur us to grow
into new, healthier ways of using each planet’s strengths, like the spirituality and creativity of
Neptune or the transformational power of Pluto. None of these processes is continual during the
whole interval, just when the transiting planet forms aspects to a natal planet.

Career Challenges of 2010-11

During these two years, as Pluto, Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter form a transiting
t-square, our lives are likely to change in many important ways. In a very
short time, we’ve already seen far-reaching changes to the global economy
and the ways we earn a living.
If one or more corners of the transiting t-square in early degrees of the
cardinal signs falls into your 2nd, 6th, or 10th house or aspects your
Midheaven, it is likely that your career will be affected over the next several
years. The most profound impact would occur if you have natal planets or the
Midheaven in early Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn. If so, you could benefit from a chart
consultation by an experienced astrologer who can help you sort out the ways this complex
astrological picture could affect you personally. Although I’m retired from doing chart consultations,
you can find my insights into the outer planets and their career pa erns in my ebook, The Outer
Planets as Career Indicators (The Outer Planets and Inner Life, volume one) It’s available at

Would Eclipses — either Lunar or Solar — on the cusp of the 2nd, 6th or 10th act like an Outer
Planet transit? Or perhaps in aspect (conjunct, square or opposition) to the ruler of one of these
Houses from the 2nd, 6th or 10th — eg. Solar Eclipse on the 6th cusp square Mercury in the 3rd?

HI, Duse. I tend to see eclipses as kind of a cosmic highlighter pen, pu ing an emphasis on the
house ma ers or planets they conjunct for a number of months after the eclipse, not as creating
a specific effect. I don’t see events “happening” with an eclipse that can’t be accounted for by
transits.

In any case, degrees of the intermediate house cusps like the 2nd and 3rd or the 5th and 6th
can vary considerably according to the house system used, as the cusps of the 2nd and 6th
might be quite different in Koch than Placidus or Equal House. The very fact that they DO
vary keeps me from paying much a ention to the actual degrees of those cusps in terms of
events. I just see them as markers for shifts of planetary focus from one area of life to another,
but with considerable gray areas where they shift back and forth. Events tend not to happen,
in any case, until there’s an actual transit to a planet.

The exceptions are the 4 angular house cusps/aka chart ANGLES–the MH (10th), Asc (1st), IC
(4th) and DSC (7th) because these are actual points in the sky and are strongly activated by
transits. The 10th/MH is especially powerful and often correlates with life-changing events,
changes in roles and status, and major career moves. But I still wouldn’t expect an eclipse to
the MH to correlate with any major event that transits couldn’t account for.

Hope that clarifies things for you. (I get the impression you’re hoping for something to
happen! Or not happen.) Regards, Donna

Ah, we’re in agreement, Donna. I, too, see Eclipses — and the subsequent “trigger point”
the Eclipse degree becomes — as a “highlighter” which can become an event due to transits
or, as I said, that trigger point being, well, triggered by Mars, the Sun, Venus or Mercury.
And sometimes even the Moon.

Thank you so much for the response and the clarification. :^)

Hi, Donna.

This is a post that’s a “printer,” meaning I will actually print it out on paper and keep it handy as I
look carefully at these transits. Mr. Moon and I both have big changes at hand. Thanks for this
great tool.

Hi, Donna. Like CJ above, this is a post I will print and keep handy as I write my blog and do
readings exploring astrology and business. Especially the chart “During an xxx transit, in some
area of life you are…” Very, very handy! Thanks. And since you invited us to do so, my blog site
is h p://astro4business.com (h p://astro4business.com). Thanks for your generosity.

Hello, Sreenivas, welcome. We’re all astrology students here–for a lifetime, because there’s
always more to learn! For job changes, you would look for transits to the 6th or 10th house or
planets in those houses, but particularly aspects to the Midheaven for highly significant career
events. Often the best prospects would come about through Jupiter transits to those places or
transiting trines.

Also, since Saturn is related to Capricorn and to the 10th naturally, sometimes a Saturn transit
to any of the houses of the chart will bring work related to the areas of life it represents. For
instance, I’ve seen Saturn transting the 3rd bring work in the communications field, or Saturn
transiting the 5th opening up a job working with children.

You’ll find more articles about careers under the category Vocational Astrology on the side of
this blog. Also, two of my ebooks can teach you more: The Outer Planets as Career Indicators
(The Outer Planets and Inner Life, volume 1) and Counseling Principles for Astrologers. There
is a tab at the top of the blog where you can go to find out more about my ebooks and how to
order them. Donna

Hi Donna,
Just not sure about this!
As we see an extended chart of progressions and transits, we see the AC (and DC, MC, IC) move
away from natal AC and likewise houses (span of degree and signs) also change positions.

When we say, “Transits of these outer planets to Vocational houses of 2nd, 6th and 10th and MC”,
do we mean the natal ones or the present ones?
Kindly explain and why is it so?

Thanks and Regards

When you’re doing transits, you use the aspects the transiting planets form to the the natal
chart–the natal chart continues to be the same throughout life.

Where the angles and planets change positions is the progressed chart, which I don’t ever use
and really am not talking about in this article. What you’re looking at with progressions would
be new aspects that the progressed planets form to the progressed angles or that the
progressed angles form to to progressed planets. Or that the progressed planets form to the
natal chart. And then there are several kinds of progressions. As I say, I get the answers I need
from going in deeply to the natal chart and transits. If you want to know about progressions,
find an astrologer online who specializes in that. Donna

Uranus was already in my career house, but then it made oppositions to my Sun and Mercury in
the 4th house. During that time, I moved across the country for a new job, lost weight, had my
dental braces removed, and a few other things… It was a very energizing time, but also quite
unse ling. I wish I knew about the remedies for moves & such challenging transits!!
