Well, id love to start my own catering buisness...but that would be taking a huge gamble i guess...
'Should I start a catering business?'
The chart is cast in the hour of the Sun, with Sagittarius rising, both the Sun and Jupiter are part of the Fire triplicity, and as there are no other considerations, I will take the chart as radical.
You are signified by Jupiter, which is retrograde in Aries on the third House cusp. Jupiter has moderate essential dignity but retrogadation weakens it.
Your prime interest is on whatever Mars rules, and Mars rules the MC, your business (or intended business) and your career in general.
The business is signified by Mars, which is in detriment in Libra, although it does have some dignity through Terms. Mars is in the ninth House so is reasonably well placed. Mars also sextiles the Ascendant (you) which is a positive sign. However we need to be as specific as we can here. Is catering a possible profession at which you will do well? Amongst a long list of possible Mars professions, Lilly includes 'cooks', which is possibly the nearest we can get to a modern view of catering. The assignation is probably related to Mars' hot and burning nature. If we were to see Catering as having an organisational dimension, then Mars would get in because of it's military connotations, though Mercury and Saturn might be better on that skill.
Mars is placed in Libra, which is ruled by Venus and would be associated with Venusian professions such as musician, poet, singer, linen draper, or silk merchant. We might add to that beautician, clothes designer, and possibly the creative side of catering - preentation of food.
So yes, a possible career could well be catering, if you see it in the terms above. But we also need to consider income flows from your career.
This is shown via the second House and its ruler. In this case Saturn as ruler of Aquarius. Saturn is high in essential dignity and placed in the ninth House in Libra. That suggests good earnings potential. Saturn squares the nodal axis, which adds some difficulties to income generation.
Lets look at the balance of significators in terms of strength:
Jupiter, you, rather weak
Mars, career, neutral
Earning potential, Saturn, strong but may have difficulties.
Finally we need to look at the Moon, which in horary plays a very strong role. A strong Moon can contribute a lot to success. Here the Moon is peregrine, in the eighth and under the beams (within 17 degrees of the Sun).
On balance here only Saturn promises, the other significators do not. This is a risky enterprise, it might well pay off, but the odds seem against it.
