The dog I think of as My Dog was picked up from the shelter when I was about 16 and he was six months old. He was a cattle dog mix, which at the time was really uncommon in our area.

We were only getting a dog because my mom was worried about home invaders which was a bit insane as we were out in the country and we’d left our German Shepherd down in Arizona with my dad for complicated reasons.

I turned the corner and saw him. Instant connection. He was curled up dozing, all blue and white freckles with red ears and feeties. His clipboard said “SLY” in huge red letters. I called it softly and he opened his eyes, ears perking. He roused to sleepily amble toward me, lick my fingers, then go lay back down.

My mom joined me in dismay, seeing the love dripping off of me. She hadn’t wanted a puppy but it was clear which dog we were going home with.

Sly was a monstrous puppy. Fans of cattle dogs will be unsurprised to learn he was exceedingly clever, mischievous and Bored a Lot. It turned out his name hadn’t been Sly. It was Billy. But I think we all know why a huge red warning had been applied to his kennel. We named him Sly anyway.

My mom doesn’t remember threatening in earnest to bring him back but it happened. Sly loved to chew. He had no interest in fetch or most toys but he adored chewing. I lost headphones, backpack straps, and pillows to his voracious teething. We tried to dissuade him. He just learned to chew when we weren’t looking. Then one day, clever but not smart, he set his teeth to a plugged in cord and electrocuted himself. He was fine, just really startled!

Thus ended the chewing, forever.

He wouldn’t even pick up toys. He was fully convinced having things in his mouth was only a matter of time before they turned on him. He’d run after a ball at dog parks, grab it in the euphoria of the chase, then immediately spit it out.

He was still a lot of dog and my moms rumblings about his poor behavior led me to join 4H with him. My friend Lia was in with her spaniels so I had an in. We did twice weekly training in obedience and showmanship.

That was it. Sly transformed into the best dog. From a bored unmanageable puppy he became a partner, ready to work on whatever we needed to work on. He learned buckets of commands, eager to please. Sit, down, wait, stand, front, back up, shake, roll, heel. The only thing we could never convince him to do was speak. His bark was reserved for Danger.

We went to compete in the county fair together, entering obedience trials and dog show portions.

The instructions are clearly stated before obedience testing. A dog must stay sitting for two minutes when told to stay, and three minutes for laying down. If our dog broke we were not supposed to speak to reissue commands, simply wait quietly.

It was us in a line with five other dogs. He passed the sitting part just fine. The down one was longer and a wretched golden retriever broke. But then his trainer pulled out a ball and started trying to redirect him with it. The other dogs watched with interest but stayed down. Sly started up. He desperately wanted to herd the golden back into place.

With elbows off the ground he froze, realizing his mistake. His head whipped to me. In silence, I swept my arm down in the nonverbal command for down. He dropped obediently and watched me fixedly for the rest of the time. I think he could feel my disappointment.

We failed.

But the judge came up to us afterward as I was petting him and said, “I was so impressed your dog knows nonverbal commands, and that other dog was so distracting! Let’s retest with the next batch.”

I was thrilled and Sly was steadfast, staring unblinkly at me for the full three minutes with utter determination. He won blue ribbons in obedience and got later best in breed since there was no other cattle dogs.

astro hypothesis: what's your ideal bedroom like?

once upon a time (a year ago) i spoke of using your house rulers to deep dive into the story of the houses. i did a hypothesis about money and another about careers - but what about your home? for that take a look at your 4h and the persona chart of its ruler (ex: my 4h is in gemini, i will be looking at my mercury persona chart NOT my ic persona (thats more family and childhood dynamics in my opinion)).

today i want to focus on somewhere critical to all of us - our bedroom. you can look at the 12h and/or the moon in this chart to get a better idea of what your ideal bedroom looks like or should be like to feel most rested and comfortable.

why?

the 12h rules over solitude (where you might go to escape everyone else in your household), the subconscious (where we supposedly go in deep sleep), etc.

the moon rules over comfort (what we find comfort in), the subconscious (which connects again to deep sleep and dreaming), cycles and rhythms (hi sleep cycle and circadian rhythm), etc.

so here are some observations of what i believe to be important to a room based on these factors in your 4h ruler's persona chart.

a capricorn (10°, 22°) moon / 12h saturn / capricorn 12h / moon aspecting saturn person likely wants a minimal room. they don't what a lot of clutter - if their room is cluttered they might be experiencing a lot of waking/life stress/anxiety that is effecting their sleep. they like neutral and natural colors in a room - beiges, "agreeable grey", dark green, and dark blues in particular allows them to feel calm and as though they are able to relax. arctic white paint or cool white light may trigger them into feeling like they are in work mode instead of relax mode. they seek quality furniture that is timeless - they don't want to constantly have to replace the pieces they have in their room because they don't last or no longer fit the style. they don't want to have to think at the end of the day that something broke or they hate a piece because it doesn't fit the trend anymore and they now have to replace it. they don't want another thing they have to do, they just want to crash. organization is key - everything in their room should have a spot. they want everything that belongs in there to have a place (books are organized by author/series, clothing is color/season organized, glasses have a spot on a side table, jewelry has an organizer that rarely changes, etc). there is often a very refined and elegant feeling to their room. the sheets have a classic design (they are white or white and grey), the mirror is elegant yet classic, the bed is simple yet fits and fills the space well, etc. and most importantly room darkening curtains and lots of blankets (no capricorn/saturn person wants to be awakened by the sun or because they are too cold at night)!!!

a gemini (3°, 15°, 27°) moon / 12h mercury / gemini 12h / moon aspecting mercury person might have a rather eclectic style in their room. it might feel like they are testing out a look or like they have a lot of different vibes that don't necessarily fit one another. color finds its way into this room no matter what and it is often multiple colors at once that draw a person's attention. its very strange because this space is never just a sleep space for them often its multi-functional in some way shape or form like they have the ability to have a sitting space for others... could be a chair or a window seat or a desk... speaking of desks - books, vinyl, cds, gadgets, etc are a big part of the gemini/mercury vibes in a space. often their media have a spotlight moment in a room. lastly this space has an air of awareness in it - its not totally sleepy vibes, you know for sure when you see this space its not just for sleep. this is a place of study, reading, music listening, etc. it might just feel like not much sleep occurs in the space at all!

leo (5°, 17°, 29°) moon / 12h sun / leo 12h / moon aspecting sun rooms are warm and inviting. there are likely gold elements or warm paint colors used in the room. luxury is a must - the bed is likely memory foam or plush - the pillows are probably hotel/high quality. the comforter is down feathers and/or a fluffy/fuzzy blanket is present. it is very likely that stuffed animals are present too or at least one that is too adorable not to be there. there is some sort of central piece in this room - a giant mirror, a big art piece over the bed, a grand wall of books, etc. something in the room is guaranteed to always get a compliment from people who peak in during a house tour. it is also rather common especially in younger years for these people to keep their awards/trophies on display in their room as it fills them with a great sense of pride. windows are very important to this person's bedroom too as they tend to enjoy natural light when they can get it.

aries (1°, 13°, 25°) moon / 12h mars / aries 12h / moon aspecting mars people love a bold look in their room. its the energy of platform beds, industrial metal frames, etc. if they can use an "aggressive" color (red, orange, yellow, etc) in a bedroom they will... however they like a modern and sleek look despite their bold color schemes. they also like a minimal room - the bedroom is for their bed - point, blank, period. it's about having the essentials nothing more nothing less. they won't being using decorative pillows they have to remove every night or a decorative blanket that just hangs over their footboard. heavens forbid a decorative ladder with a decorative blanket that's not for use but for the eye. if they can't use it, they don't need or want it in the space it will just make them annoyed and cause them to feel like everything is in the way of them getting to the relax/wind-down portion of their day. now strangely enough, they often workout in their bedroom, so it wouldn't be shocking to find a pull up bar in the doorway or a peloton bike in the corner of the room. and 10/10 they will be getting up using an alarm - but it is rather unlikely they will need multiple alarms to make them get out of their bed in the morning.

likely more to come on home hypotheses, as i look to make renovations to my own home despite/because of being creatively burnt out. thank the heavens for astrology doing the leg work.

Astro Observations #2

If you’re having issues with choosing a career path, look to your Sun! The sign, house, and planet that your Sun rules over can tell you where you shine best. Your sun is also something that you gradually grow into throughout your life. Ex: Sun in 4H would be best taking over a family business or learning a trade from a close family member. 4H Sun Julia Roberts’ parents ran a small theatre teaching local children how to act and she grew up to be an actress herself.

The moon is the fastest moving body in your natal chart and therefore rules over things that you may have fleeting feelings about. Scorpio and Capricorn moon placements can be difficult to deal with because these signs need time and extreme situations to let go and get over something. This resistance to emotional change can cause them to either be avoidant or they hyperfocus on things that cause them to feel specific emotions.

Aries placements, especially Sun and Mars, may find themselves being bored with their day to day life because they know exactly what they have to do to have a successful day. This knowledge pushes them to be more rebellious so they have something to fix. They go towards the unknown and situations of chaos to challenge themselves make things more orderly. This is why they are often to the first to do something specific successfully.

Gemini Moon and Venus natives don’t really fall in love very often, not out of boredom but because of high standards of their partners. When they do fall in love, it’s because the person caters to all their senses so they’re constantly stimulated. When they do find their person, they may be on and off with them because there are times when that person doesn’t constantly fulfill them so they take breaks and come back when that person prepared to do so.

Virgo placements are known for being perfectionists but often fall in love with people who others may not find desirable or worthy. This is because they have a 7H in Pisces. The Neptune like influence makes them have rose colored glasses in their love life. They also love the idea of having something/someone that triggers the perfectionist tendencies within them. People often trust the Virgo placement’s judgement because the results speak for themselves - until they see their partner and they question, “what are they doing with them?”

astro notes: jupiter through the houses pt.2

Symbolizing wisdom, luck, and spiritual growth, Jupiter guides us through journeys of abundance and higher learning. As it rules Sagittarius and Pisces, and co-rules Pisces with Neptune, its reach extends to philosophical pursuits, foreign travel, and spiritual exploration. From its exaltation in Cancer to its debilitation in Capricorn, Jupiter's placement illuminates our beliefs, aspirations, and sense of justice. Throughout this exploration of Jupiter's journey through the houses, we unravel its transformative power and guiding light, embracing its blessings of prosperity, abundance, and divine guidance.

Jupiter in the 4th House:

With Jupiter gracing your fourth house of home and family, you are blessed with a deep sense of emotional fulfillment and inner stability. Your home is a source of comfort and sanctuary, providing you with a strong foundation from which to navigate the challenges of life.

Your emotional resilience and stability make you a pillar of strength for your loved ones, and you may find that you are able to offer wise counsel and support during times of difficulty. Your relationship with your mother is particularly close and nurturing, and you may find that she plays a significant role in shaping your values and beliefs.

Family gatherings and traditions hold special significance for you, and you may take great pleasure in creating a warm and welcoming environment for those you hold dear. You have a deep appreciation for the importance of roots and heritage, and you may find that you are drawn to explore your ancestry or preserve family traditions for future generations.

However, it's important to guard against the tendency to become too attached to the past or overly protective of your emotional boundaries. With Jupiter's influence here, there may be a temptation to cling to familiar patterns or resist change, even when it is necessary for growth and evolution. Remember to embrace the opportunities for expansion and growth that come from stepping outside of your comfort zone.

Overall, Jupiter in the fourth house blesses you with emotional security, familial bonds, and a deep connection to your roots. Embrace the blessings of home and family, and use them as a source of strength and inspiration as you navigate the journey of life.

Creativity and self-expression are central to your sense of identity, and you may find that you are drawn to activities that allow you to express yourself authentically and freely. Whether through artistic endeavors or playful pursuits, you have a natural gift for infusing joy and positivity into everything you do.

However, it's important to guard against the tendency to overindulge in pleasure or become overly attached to external validation. With Jupiter's influence here, there may be a temptation to seek validation and approval from others, rather than finding fulfillment from within. Remember to cultivate a sense of self-worth that is independent of external recognition, and focus on expressing yourself authentically from the heart.

Overall, Jupiter in the fifth house blesses you with creativity, romance, and joyous self-expression. Embrace the blessings of love and creativity, and use them to infuse every aspect of your life with passion, vitality, and purpose.

Your generosity knows no bounds, and you may find that you are constantly seeking opportunities to lend a helping hand or support those in need. Your compassionate nature and strong sense of social responsibility make you a valuable asset to your community, and you may find fulfillment in roles that allow you to advocate for justice and equality.

However, it's important to guard against the tendency to become overly self-sacrificing or perfectionistic in your approach to work and service. With Jupiter's influence here, there may be a temptation to take on too much responsibility or become overly critical of yourself and others. Remember to prioritize self-care and set healthy boundaries, ensuring that you are able to give freely without depleting your own resources.

Overall, Jupiter in the sixth house blesses you with compassion, service, and a deep desire to make a positive impact in the world. Embrace the blessings of health and well-being, and use them to create a brighter, more compassionate world for yourself and those around you.

Asteroid Lucifer #1930 Through the Houses

Asteroid Lucifer in astrology 🪽 shines a light on where we are tempted to stand apart, where ego steps in, and how we wrestle with pride. It's a symbol of independence but also of isolation, where we choose to defy the norm, sometimes to our own detriment.

It’s not the devil sitting on your shoulder, whispering bad ideas, but more of an inner rebel challenging the status quo and, yes, sometimes taking a few shortcuts when we think no one’s looking. Where Lucifer lands in your natal chart gives you a clear picture of where you’re most likely to battle self-deception, stubborn pride, and the temptation to prioritize yourself at the cost of others.

When Lucifer lands in your first house, this is all about self-image. You might constantly feel the need to present yourself in the best possible light, no matter what. It’s a slippery slope between genuine confidence and ego, and with this placement, your challenge is knowing when you’re overdoing it. You’ll lie to yourself about who you are or want to be, convincing yourself that a perfectly crafted image is the only way to be accepted. But true power comes when you stop performing for others and embrace your real, messy self. You don’t need to stand on a pedestal to be noticed. Your individuality already speaks volumes.

In the second house, Lucifer tempts you to think that your worth is tied directly to material success and possessions. It can lead to a tunnel vision focused on wealth, security, and how much you can accumulate. The need to control your financial situation might lead you to take risks or shortcuts. You’ll be tempted to think money can solve your problems or that what you own defines your value. The truth here is that real security comes from self-respect and the ability to feel worthy regardless of what’s in your bank account.

Lucifer in the third house can make you feel like the smartest person in the room. You pride yourself on your intellect and communication skills. The problem arises when your pride gets in the way of listening to others or accepting that maybe you don’t know everything. Here, you’ll face temptations to bend the truth or manipulate information to fit your narrative. It’s important to use your voice for good and resist the urge to prove yourself constantly. You already have something valuable to say; you don’t need to embellish it.

In the fourth house, Lucifer brings up deep-rooted pride tied to family and home life. There’s a temptation to put on a façade of perfection here, hiding any messiness or dysfunction beneath the surface. You might take shortcuts in emotional matters, pretending things are fine when they’re not. There’s a fear of vulnerability, and you might lie to yourself about the state of your relationships. The key to growth is learning to be honest about your emotional needs and letting go of the idea that everything has to appear perfect. Real strength lies in showing up authentically, even in the messy moments.

Lucifer’s presence in the fifth house amplifies the temptation to seek attention and validation through creativity, romance, and self-expression. You want to be adored, and sometimes that leads to over-the-top behavior. There’s a risk of becoming so focused on how others see you that you lose sight of what you actually enjoy. This placement asks you to stop performing for an audience and to create or love for the sake of joy, not for applause. If you can get past the need for validation, this is where you can truly shine and let your natural gifts flourish.

In the sixth house, there’s a temptation to control every aspect of your daily life, health, and work. Lucifer here makes you feel like you need to be perfect, productive, and constantly improving. You’ll lie to yourself about your limits, pushing yourself to the point of burnout. The lesson here is to let go of the need to be the best at everything and to realize that self-worth isn’t tied to how much you can do. Learning to rest, set boundaries, and take care of your well-being is where your real power lies.

With Lucifer in the seventh house, relationships become the battleground for pride and ego. There’s a tendency to want to be right or to put your needs ahead of your partner’s, even if it’s subtle. You might be tempted to control or manipulate situations to get what you want, thinking that’s the only way to maintain balance. The challenge is learning to see your relationships as partnerships where both people are equal. It’s not about winning or losing but about learning to give and receive love without power struggles.

Lucifer in the eighth house tempts you to hide your vulnerabilities at all costs. This is the house of deep transformation, intimacy, and shared resources, but pride makes you want to keep control. There’s a fear of letting others in, of showing your flaws, so you might keep secrets or try to maintain power through manipulation. The path to healing here is through honest, deep connections. Real transformation happens when you stop trying to control the process and allow yourself to be seen in all your complexity.

In the ninth house, Lucifer makes you feel like you have all the answers when it comes to your beliefs, philosophies, or education. You might find yourself looking down on others who don’t share your worldview or feel tempted to cut corners in your pursuit of knowledge. There’s a desire to be seen as wise or enlightened, but this can lead to arrogance. The lesson here is to stay open to learning and evolving. True wisdom comes from knowing that there’s always more to discover.

Lucifer in the tenth house drives you to want recognition and success at any cost. Your pride is tied to your career and public image, and you might be tempted to take shortcuts to get to the top. There’s a risk of becoming so focused on your goals that you lose sight of your integrity. The challenge here is to build something lasting, based on your true values, rather than chasing accolades or status. Real success comes when you pursue what’s meaningful to you, not what looks impressive to others.

In the eleventh house, Lucifer brings up issues around fitting in with groups and communities. You might feel the temptation to rebel just for the sake of standing out, or you might manipulate situations to gain popularity. The key here is to stay true to yourself without needing to go against the grain just for attention. Find your tribe, but don’t let the need for acceptance or admiration dictate your choices. Your unique perspective has value; you don’t need to prove it by constantly being the outsider.

Finally, Lucifer in the twelfth house speaks to hidden pride, where you might deceive yourself about your deeper motivations. This is the house of the subconscious, and Lucifer here can make it easy to avoid facing your shadows. You’ll be tempted to suppress uncomfortable emotions or take the easy way out when dealing with your inner world. The lesson is to confront your fears and insecurities head-on. Real growth comes when you stop hiding from yourself and embrace the parts of you that you’d rather keep in the dark.

In honor of the date, I have pulled this up from the vault. Willow and Momo. Two turkeys I loved and adored back when I did 4H. Because I used to be kinda a farm boy lol.

Looking back at photos of past me doesn’t really hurt any more. Just feels strange. Like looking at an estranged cousin I haven’t seen years. Familiar, but apart and detached.

I’d wish him well, but she’s doing pretty alright these days lol.

Anyways, happy day y’all.

[ninelivesastrology]

I really think the 3H represents your culture because the 9H represents cultures from other people. It's not okay to say, "foreign" anymore, fyi. The 3H is so strong on locality, language and communication that we can say it can determine accents as well as languages. I know people may argue the 11H for culture, but it just doesn't like up for me in terms of house axes. 11H is communities such as the LGBT community. People from anywhere can join a community.

I do think the 3H is where we find inclusion because the Moon joys here and exalts in Taurus, the nocturnal sign that Venus rules. So safety, familiarity, memory and comfort come to mind.

And the 4H is second from the 3H, so if the 2H represents things that support and sustain, the 4H has this link to a culture's traditions like food and clothing which is something we get from our family. Cultures would not persist without the people to pass it down. It's why the 4H's signification is heritage. Bang.

[cowboymeemaw]

rant because its 6am, I haven't slept, and I ain't got shit to do. Anyway.

I don't understand them showmen who don't let their calves be cows. They fancy em up, get pissed when the calf does anything wrong. They don't seem to remember that it's their first time on earth too and they don't get that long.

On the night before sales day me and my best friend took our calves into the empty show ring, we dropped their halters and just let them play with each other. Just letting them exist and have fun before they're sent the the stockyard. And that entire time we got dirty looks from other showmen. During my sale I didn't stand there and set my calf up, I scratched his neck and let him lick my face. They're more than the trophies and the money.

It's the least you can could do for a calf that's gonna provide so much for you.

Picture- Nimi and his boyfriend Clover

[theworldoffostering]

E has embarked on a new adventure: The Dog Project which is part of 4-H. She now has somewhere to channel her vast knowledge of dogs. She is competing in obedience, showmanship, and agility. She won first in obedience and agility in our county in August. This month she is competing in the state 4-H competitions. She’s done well in part because she practices, and in part because she’s not competing against a lot of other people in her ability and dog size group. She really loves it!

Ascendents & the 4th House

According to Vedic astrology, it is said that the ascendent is the blueprint to your life. It is the most important point as it sets the map for your journey in this life. Therefore making the lord of the ascendent and where it is placed incredibly important. 

The lord of the ascendent is referred to as the Lagnesh, the house that Lagnesh is placed in is where the focus of person’s life goes. 

The fourth house (4H) signifies your home, mother, ancestors, property, homeland, possessions, comforts, domestic happiness, mental peace and emotional satisfaction.

Aries Ascendent - Cancer 4H (Mars - Moon)

Whilst Aries may appear to be quick, agile and always in some sort of a rush, there is a deep inherent need for comfort in the home. Cancer 4H would indulge in soft, cozy comfortable decor and furniture in order to beatify and create a sanctuary that helps them relax in a fast paced world. 

Taurus Ascendent - Leo 4H (Venus - Sun) 

Taureans are generally laid back until provoked, enjoying the comforts that life have to offer. Be it a delicious pastry from their favourite bakery down the street or learning how to make exotic coffee, a taurean needs a home that is fit for a king. There is a love for golden trimmings, with unique pieces that are difficult to come by. The space has to exude elegance and timeless beauty as the home is where taureans reign supreme. 

Gemini Ascendent - Virgo 4H (Mercury - Mercury)

With their minds and mouths moving a 1 mile a minute, Geminis are always a whirlwind of innovative ideas and suggestions. Unable to sit in one place for long, a gemini has to release their creative energy in order to exert themselves in the world. They are people free to be who they are on their own terms. However, with a virgo 4H, home is the place where they narrow their eyes and focus on bringing their thoughts to life. There is an incredibly practical approach to design and decor as it is functionality more so than design. Earthy minimalism is the way to go. Creating structure out of chaos.

on a similar vein as my Jersey Gotham fic, I raise you this point: I have not seen a single mentioned of 4-h in any regard to Clark. I mean c’mon, super country boy Clark motherfucking Kent??? Not involved in 4H??? Absurd. My mans was involved in AT LEAST rifle, horse, and cow clubs. Maybe a lil goat club as a treat. (Fuck sheep I have a personal vendetta with them so only sheep slander here). He still has the pledge memorized. He defaults to showing posture when nervous. You bet your ass this man can get any stain— shit blood mud— out of whites because “No I don’t need a dry cleaner Bruce do you know how hard it is to keep an all-white outfit all-white while in a barn I did that when I was seven fuck you”

Clark drops random stories from his time showing and then moved on like he hasn’t just dropped the craziest farmer bullshit city-boy Bruce has ever heard.

“Y’know i once got drunk and stole a tractor and plowed a dick into the field.”

“I’m sorry what?”

“nah nothing.”

Mans just casually drops that he helped establish breed standards multiple times and refined show standards for said breeds. He started a petition to change the classes for showing to include companion animals. PETA has stalked him and has him on their black list. He was excused of all tardies in school because during calving season, he regularly gloved up and pulled calves (bc why bother using an actual calf pulled when you have an alien with super strength).

Yes Clark is an alien, but he is a feral farm boy alien.

Possible Career Paths for the Sun Signs🌞

As I explained in my second Astro Observations post, the sign and house your sun is in can tell you where you naturally shine best. Working in a career where you stand out naturally can benefit you in many ways because when work does not feel like work, you have more room to thrive.

Sun in Aries/1H - Management, Military, Self-Employed Entrepreneur, Acting*, Modeling.

Sun in Taurus/2H - Banking, Finance, Singing*, Chef, Real Estate.

Sun in Gemini/3H - Writer, Radio/Podcast, Middle Education Teacher (ages 7-14), Athlete*, Entertainment Critic

Sun in Cancer/4H* - Family trade (Nepotism), Early Education Teacher (ages newborn to 7), Interior Decoration, Family Therapist, Historian

Sun in Leo/5H - Entertainer, Relationship Therapist/Dating Coach, Film Director/Producer, Youth Advocate, Late Education Teacher (ages 14-18)

Sun in Virgo/6H - Healthcare, Social Work, Human Resources, Comedian, Politician

Sun in Libra/7H - Lawyer, Mediator, At-Home work, Visual Artist*, Business Owner

Sun in Scorpio/8H* - Insurance Agent, Funeral Services, Sex Therapist, Addiction Counselor, Acting*

Sun in Sagittarius/9H - Theology, Post-Grade School Education (ages 18 and over), Travel Agent, Life Coach, Blogger

Sun in Capricorn/10H* - Business Leadership (ex: C-Suite), Family Trade (self-starting), Board Member, Politics, Entertainment Executive

Sun in Aquarius/11H* - Socialite/Influencer, Entertainer, Entrepreneur (with others), Humanitarian, Project Manager

Sun in Pisces/12H* - Psychologist, Executor, Jail/Prison Employee, Artist*, Occult Worker

Notes: 

Actors, Singers, and Artists are usually found in all houses, but the work they go towards depends on the house they’re in. For example, Actors in Leo/5H tend to go for lighthearted roles like Will Smith, while Actors in Scorpio/8H tend to have darker-themed roles like Nicole Kidman.

Sun in Aquarius/11H can usually succeed in whatever career they venture into if they have passion for it because the 11H rules over hopes and dreams. It’s why most celebrities have 11H Sun.

Sun in Cancer/4H, Scorpio/8H, and Pisces/12H tend to have more mysterious or behind-the-scenes careers because the Sun prefers the attention to be on their work rather than on the person themselves.

Sun in Gemini/3H is good with athletics because the 3H is a social house along with 7H and 11H. Also, most professional athletes or athletic employees learn multiple languages to tend to their teams, which are made up of people from different cultures.

Sun in Capricorn/10H careers usually take time which is why the careers I listed are mostly leadership positions. These natives are ambitious so not being in charge is not a good direction for their sun energy.

Cancer rising people are known for being deep thinkers who often analyze the pros & cons of every situation before they take an initiative in life. They also possess a strong memory. This sign is characterized by deep feelings, sensitivity & a genuine concern for others. These people kind of look innocent or like Angels in my opinion. They have that divine feminine look.

* Warning! Definition of “ don’t let their beauty fool you!”

Physical features:

BEAUTIFUL!

Baby faces.

Fragile bodies.

Round faces.

Big ol bitties.

Watery eyes.

Moon like features.
