'Briefly, any person–whether it’s a boss, parent, mentor, lover, friend, relative, or whatever–who has a planet conjunct your Midheaven within about 3-4° is going to have a strong impact on your career. Here are some of the ways they do.'

' The astrological community is prone to tedious debates that go on for decades and never get resolved, since we’re such a bunch of opinionated old Uranian cusses. One ongoing debate poses the question of which parent is signified by the Midheaven (10th house cusp) and which one by the IC (4th house cusp).'

"The Midheaven, or Medium Coeli (MC), represents the highest point in the sky at the time when you were born. Depending on which house system you use, the Midheaven usually corresponds to the angle of the 10th house cusp. The Sun reaches its culmination at the Midheaven and then begins to decline in the sky towards sunset (the Descendant).
