I have wanted to be a teacher as long as I can remember (when I was little I used to play school with my dolls) I think this might have something to do with mercury and jupiter.

I'am a teacher to my family and friends but outside the classroom LOL!

P.S. the virgo and pisces in me caused me to take up nursing instead. I love helping people!

the 1st chart screams teacher, especially sun/jupiter conj. jupiter in the 1st. THE rising sign ruler is saturn, which is in sagittarius/10th house. Sagittarius is the natural teacher, 10th house associated with career. then theres the sagittarius mars, saturn, and uranus. i bet you'll be a very good teacher, students wont forget you! what kind of teacher do you want to be? art? history?

the 2nd chart has sagittarius in the 6th house(work/job/health). leos are good teachers in general.

I have several indicators of teaching ability in my chart, but I can't recall them all. You can look at my chart yourself if you still have my info. But the ones I remember:

Mercury conjunct MC/in the 10th - I have the ability to communicate effectively, and to effectively convey and transmit ideas and information. 10th house influence is "parental," giving my Mercury more authority.

Jupiter and Neptune in the 3rd - Jupiter in 3rd is optimistic, meaning as a teacher I'm very positive about the learning experience and I am very encouraging to my students. My way of communicating can be positive and stimulating. With Neptune in the 3rd, this indicates intuitive abilities and compassion in understanding my students needs and being able to be responsive and creative in meeting their needs. Normally Neptune in the 3rd is thought to endow the ability to work with disabled students or students with learning disabilites, and I have done a lot of work with those types of students.

Ceres in the 10th/conjunct Sun and Mercury - Conjunct Mercury, Ceres stresses intellectual development, and with the Sun there's focus of nuturing a sense of self and personal identity. These of the two main things I try to encourage in my students. Since Ceres is in the 10th, that need to nuture extends beyond the personal and social, to "everyone's children" in a sense.

Venus and Saturn in the 9th - Venus and Saturn in the 9th indicates how I seen education's "end." While the planets I have in the 3rd indicate the initial process of educating, like Jupiter's optimism and enthusiam and Neptune's intuiion and compassion, these 9th house placements show what I expect as the end result: through education, a student should be become a balanced and creative individual (Venusian qualities) possessing wisdom, discipline and self-possesion (Saturnine qualities).

There was some other things with asteriods but I don't recall what exactly right now.

So, now there is just dance. Its always been there. Being able to focus on that one thing has made me a better teacher.. because it takes alot.
I just wish it paid the bills.
I've got soooooo much Neptune/Mars/ Saturn/MC square action right now that is just the start of what may be the worst transits all at once you've ever seen...
So on that note.. its no wonder I have no idea what I want to do....I'm on auto-pilot.

Virgo Sun, Merc, Venus, Ceres conjunct in the 7th

wow, i have so much to learn! i realized tht when i read your analysis of these charts.

basically i am trying to find common themes from charts of ppl like Einstein, Feynman, etc etc. I was expecting some uranus aspects to merc, as i've seen them touted as indicators of intelligence. but up to now i dont see it appear frequently. (i've looked at abt 6 charts till now). i do however see a very common merc-saturn theme.

Im teaching also...well supply teaching because I didnt enjoy working in just one school...I dont have much patience with teaching actually. Id rather be thinking making connections and inventing...now if only someone would give me the funds for my own labratory without having to go through all those years of working under someone else...sigh only in my dreams.

I may have to settle down soon though cuz funds dont grow this way. Im still thinking about other career/job options, and I have this march break to look and apply.

More importantly, my chart ruler, saturn is in the 9th house as well.....very teachy position, interesting to note that my saturn and mars in the 9th are both in libra, as a teacher I'm extremely fair, impartial, serene, it really brings out my best qualities.

I have been working as a Teacher's Assistant since October with pre-schoolers. I never had a real interest in working specifically with kids (although I'd working with special needs adults and children before), but a lot of my older friends are teachers and had suggested that I would like being one. It turns out that I really love the kids-they are so funny! But I don't think I would ever consider being a head teacher.

I once posted a question once here asking whether my chart would indicate working well in education.

Here are some of my aspects

Sun Sextile Saturn 7°54

Before I taught in the schools, I was a free-lance tutor for about 6 years. I like doing that much, much better, but it's to inconstant money-wise for me to support myself.

I hear ya...I tutored throughout the last few years of university and before deciding on going to teacher's college...and even now that Im supplying...

Its nice pocket money but wont pay my way out of student debt.

Sagittarius rising
Sun, Jupiter and Mercury in the 5th house (loved working with kids!)
Venus in Gemini in the 6th house

As I understand from the posts here, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn are to be looked at as well as 10th and 9th houses.

My Mercury is in the 11th hs and it also rules this house which I believe may be interpreted as communication with groups. Mercury sextiles Virgo Saturn conj North Node in the 1st hs. Saturn is the ruler of the 6th hs. The 9th hs ruler, Mars, is in the 10th hs of career. As for Jupiter & Saggitarius, no major teaching-related aspects.
