Find Your Calling Through Astrology

Discover what you're truly here to contribute in this three-part online workshop with astrologer and author Carmen Turner-Schott, exploring how the Midheaven in your birth chart can illuminate your career, vocation and life purpose.

What kind of work allows you to express your authentic gifts? In astrology, the Midheaven (MC) is one of the most significant points in the birth chart, revealing our career path, public identity, reputation, achievements and the legacy we hope to leave. Yet it offers far more than a list of suitable jobs. The Midheaven shows the qualities we are growing into, how we wish to be recognised and the unique contribution we are called to make.

Because the Midheaven cannot be fully understood on its own, this workshop also explores its partner point, the IC, which represents our roots, family conditioning and emotional foundations. Together, the Midheaven–IC axis reveals how early experiences and family patterns shape our professional choices and evolving sense of purpose.

Carmen Turner-Schott brings a rare blend of astrological and psychological insight to this subject. A licensed clinical social worker and the author of 12 books on astrology and spirituality, she has spent three decades researching astrology alongside healing, mental health and personal transformation. Her grounded, compassionate approach makes her the ideal guide to help you look beyond "What job should I have?" to the deeper question: "What am I here to contribute?"

What to expect

This is an experiential and interactive workshop in which you'll work with your own birth chart throughout. Through guided exercises, reflection questions, chart interpretation and small-group activities, you'll learn to interpret the 12 Midheaven signs, the Midheaven ruler by sign and house, and the planets conjunct and aspecting the Midheaven, and how each influences your career experiences, visibility, leadership and life direction. By the end of the workshop, you'll have created your own Midheaven Career and Vocation Blueprint, bringing together the key indicators of your strengths, professional direction, public identity and potential contribution to the world.
