dear Mystic Chris,
That was right on spot. I am very committed to social causes, and have been told I should go into law. I'd love to work for a
social justice organization, but there aren't very many that pay (lots of volunteer opportunities, but nothing that pays).
The causes I find close to my heart are economic justice and environmentalism (perhaps due to my aquarius rising? Or Chiron
in my 2nd house?). May I ask why you suggested 4th house causes? Just curious.
Thank you so much,
DeLani
Hello DeLani,
I had suggested 4th house causes because the ruler of your 11th house, Saturn, is placed in your 4th house, AND the ruler of your 4th house, Mercury, is in your 11th house. That is, there is mutual house reception. The goals which each house represents are more easily fulfilled in the area the other represents because the houses support one another.
The 11th house, among other things, represents humanitarian causes, your goals and dreams, and where you feel bigger than life. With Saturn in your 4th house, that connection would suggest that you accomplish your goals and dreams by pursuing causes or projects related to the 4th house. Actually, I did not mention this before, but the 4th house represents your home, one of your parents, your home environment, or your birth land. On a more general level, the 4th house can also represent the environment and concern for it. This explains your interest in environmentalism. Another interpretation of the ruler of your 11th in your 4th house is that your home will be the base of operations for one of your organizations or in pursuing your dreams. Maybe you like having neighborhood meetings at your home or working from home. In my last post for you I had focused on issues affecting people since the 11th house is concerned with humanity. But now I see that your Midheaven is in the nature-loving sign of Sagittarius, and the ruler of your 10th is in your 11th house. Whether you choose to fight for Mother Nature or your fellow Man, you will feel larger than life and on track in pursuing your dreams.
In addition, you have a bucket shaped chart. It has most of the planets in a couple of houses and directly opposite that group is one planet that forms the handle. This planet is known as the Singleton. Bucket people usually have a single-minded drive in achieving their goals, which is usually represented by the Singleton, which in your case is Saturn.
I hope that I have addressed your concerns about the 4th house. Also, have you considered studying grant writing? You would be paid a good amount of money helping non-for-profits and other organizations get money.
Best wishes!
Mystic Chris
