Midheaven

I've found I identify most with my cancer midheaven and my leo moon. Has anyone else experienced this?
It could be that my natal libra north node is transitioning that is amplifying this with the full moon tonight too.

What does midheaven do?

The Midheaven is the entrance to the tenth house and relates to your career, reputation and social standing. These are your most visible achievements in the eyes of the world. This will guide you to your professional achievements and responsibilities. Your life's purpose, if you will. Your highest aspirations in life.


Your Midheaven Sign should give you some insight into what you need to realize your full place in life. You also must consider any planets that may be found in your ninth and tenth houses; they will modify the end results and make a difference in what career you ultimately choose and how successful you will be.

Of course, sometimes one must work at a job that isn't right, and it can wreak havoc upon you, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. By focusing on your MC, you can refocus on your ideal. Coupled with your natural talents and inclinations, you should eventually find your place in the world and become re-energized.

You can also use your Midheaven Sign to understand your personal and spiritual goals. You can gain insight into why you react the way you do to stressful situations. Being social is different for everyone. The MC can help you learn to trust your best social qualities to cultivate. It will show you how others perceive you. This can help you ascertain if your public "face" is helpful to you or not.

Mine is in Capricorn.

Take a look on this site --> http://www.alwaysastrology.com/capricorn-midheaven.html
My MH is in Aries and the description from here was perfectly accurate, it helped me realize by looking back on my overall progress in life considering education/career and social standing, why I tend to do things the way I do. Now it is more clearer to me where should I be going, in which aria will I truly shine and give my best.

this sums it up:

"An interesting thing about people with an Aquarius Midheaven is that they may have two sets of contradictory views simultaneously; they could be very conservative and still have views that have very little to do with the real world. They can be challenging and conforming at the same time."

I can be the most confusing person in the world, adding Pisces (double emotion), Gemini asc (double mind).
