Discovering Your Major Life Themess

How I Discovered My Major Life Themess

While being an astrologer allows one to see numerous aspects of the personalities and characters of others as well as oneself, it doesn't always mean an astrologer knows everything there is to know about astrology. In fact, there is so much to learn about astrology, that it's fair to say that one could spend the majority of his or her life learning just one aspect of one type of the many different types of astrology.

Consequently, I'm ashamed to say that while it's taken me over 25 years to learn enough astrology to call myself a professional, I've actually just learned (in the last couple of years) how to calculate the Major Life Themess.

Recently, I had several major epiphanies which resulted in the illumination of my MLT. This, after nearly 40 years of being in the dark as far as what I wanted to do with my life.

While I've had the pleasure of performing in numerous capacities - with Motherhood being the most rewarding - not all of my endeavors have been so fulfilling. Consequently, I wandered from one interest to another, searching for that one right job that would bring me happiness.

However, it seemed that time and again I'd reach a dead end. I was not fulfilled by much of anything - either in intimate relationships or in my work - yet I continued to hope that it would all come together for me soon. Because of this, I felt as though I wasn't actually contributing anything. This, in spite of the fact that I've raised two wonderful daughters who, even now are contributing or on the way to contributing something of lasting value in their own right. Too, I've worked in management in various fields/industries the majority of that time, and had been recognized or awarded for my achievements in one form or another.

Still, what I really wanted - that happiness that I sought from constructive labor, so to speak - continued to elude me...until I finally came to realize that what I really wanted to do was help others. As my youngest daughter, Kristen, would say... Duh!

Yet, how I should go about that, what area or discipline I should focus on, continued to remain a mystery, just a hazy silhouette of my Purpose, my LifePath, which stayed buried deep in my sub-conscious, the exact nature of which refused to reveal itself to me.

But hey! That was a start! At least I now knew that I wanted to do something constructive to help others.

I've studied or at least read something on just about every -ology or -ism and subject imaginable, but had come no closer to discovering where my real propensity and talents lay. So, while I've studied astrology for the last 25+ years, and have been a practicing astrologer for the last 24, I still didn't quite make the connection....

Until recently.

As I was compiling statistical data on my own birth chart for one of my astrological lessons, I noticed two overall themes: Unconditional Love, and Service to Others.

For a Triple Leo (Sun, Moon and Ascendant in the same sign), these two themes can be extremely challenging, since Leos can generally be very Self-oriented (though not necessarily selfish), egotistical and arrogant. To complicate matters, however, I actually have six planets in Leo, as well as my Ascendant! A bit lopsided, you might say!

Not only that, but six of the seven of those planets are in the 12th House - the House of Guilt, Sorrow, Selflessness and Service to Others! I emphasize selfLESSness, because it has been painfully obvious that I must focus on being selfLESS rather than selfISH. And this has been a MAJOR challenge for me, a septuple Leo!

You can well imagine that I might have spent most of my life feeling guilty about and trying to live down all the negative aspects and attributes of the Leo nature. And, while not always successful in this endeavor, I have tried diligently to recognize and amend my faults. Certainly, not an easy task for anyone, much less a Leo! And even more so for someone with so many planets in Leo!

Yet, in addition to this, two of my planets are in the 1st House - the House of Self, two are in the 3rd House - the House of Communication and one's environment, and six are in the 12th House, the House of Guilt, Sorrow, Selflessness and Service to Others.

What this means for me is the following:

The MC or Mid-Heaven represents the subject's direction in life and gives a clue about his ambitions and goals. My MC is in Taurus ... the sign of Love and in the 10th House, the House of Career. Does that mean I'm going to make a Career out of Love or something to do with it?

Although the 12th House is, according to some astrologers, the House of Guilt and Sorrow or Restrictions, I choose to see it as the House of Opportunities, since, in my case, I've been afforded quite a few of them! But, again, the 12th House is also the House of Selflessness and Helping Others. And with so many of my planets in that House, I�d venture to say that I was �destined� to do just that � help others!

So, what am I going to do with these opportunities?

What would you do if this were your chart?

Well, I won�t leave you hanging.

What I (1st House) have chosen to do is communicate (Mercury in the 3rd House) what I (1st House) have learned (3rd House) about Unconditional Love (Taurus in the 10th House) to others (12th House & Chiron in the 6th House) to learn about and apply this same Unconditional Love for themselves. And because Leos generally have such a strong voice (read have big mouths), and because I have so many of these same planets in Leo, I�m sure I won�t have any problems accomplishing my task!

Unfortunately, the situation in which I found myself is not that uncommon. Most of us � even many astrologers -- spend a majority of our lives being unhappy in our jobs and with our work, and attempting to determine just what it is that we really want to do.
