Ah, I know this is a little early, but I'm going to be terribly busy the next few days and being *late* isn't very Capricorny isn't it?
The following areas to cover are: Capricorn, 10th house and Saturn.
Cappy energy is very activated in my chart: Sun conj Merc in Cap/12th, Moon in 10th/Sag and Saturn (conj Jupiter) in 8th/Lib.
Sag Moon has given me a strong desire for freedom, factor in Scorp Uranus conj MC and Aqu ASC (conj Mars) and all this adds up to being independent; intensely and aggressively so. I like volunteer work and such, but when it comes to *work* work, I must have some measure of indepedence.
12th/Cap Sun isn't harmonious w/this as I've explained in the sun/moon/ASC thread. I've read a 12th sun is made to serve others. I think for this reason, I see my art as having a very social function. I feel a real social obligation to share what I've seen, or at least *try* to share it.
Giving up the ego in another sense, I think being an artist is like being a translator for the uncon. I become a conduit; this entails having to learn to give up the ego entirely. So the core of my being (sun) is really about "not being" at all, and working hard at it like a good Capricorn should! I've had to learn that the greatest liberation and attainment only comes w/the *conscious* release of the ego which takes a lot of drive/stamina (capricorn). Not the most fun lessons I'm sure, but I'm not complaining.
My sun/merc are very poorly aspected, esp sun. In fact, it's like everyone else in my chart is having a ball except these two! Both square Jup/Sat. When I was younger, my environment was very restrictive (12th).
What else? Sun/merc in Cap means that no matter how wacky the ideas I entertain are, the bottom line is: is this practical? How can this be applied (esp in terms of social benefit/Aqu)? Sun in 12th also makes me okay w/no sunlight and being in cold, institutional environments.
Oh yes, Saturn in 8th ($$) has also made me stingy! *Impulse* buy, what's that?? But w/Jupiter conj, I do prefer to spend big (jup) when the product has practical uses (sat) and if the quality of the product merits (sat) its high price. Finally, w/Sat/Jup square sun, I can be overdramatic (jup); I grasp overlying structures (jup/sat) very well, but have a lousy attn for details (jup); I can act insensitively/be self absorbed (jup). I'm sure you've noticed from my posts I like talking about myself ^_~ Don't worry, about 2/3 of my chart is empty so I'm not going to talk your ear off every month!!
