Sun trine Midheaven (Robert Hand)

This can be a strong indication of personal success. You have a strongly developed notion of who you are, and even while you are young you will want to be an achiever. You want a great deal out of life in terms of goals and material possessions, but you are willing to work for them. You see the necessity of putting off today's pleasure to reach tomorrow's goals. At the same time, you can get others to work with and for you, so that all of you can achieve your goals.

You are probably a very practical person. You may have very strong ideals, but you are not likely to be carried away by them, unless the planetary energies in your chart are very idealistic. Even then, your ideals are likely to be about matters that affect everyone in the real world. You have a strong sense of your own values, and you will not get along well with people whose values are very different.

Authority figures, starting with your father, will be very important in your life. If your father is absent from the scene, your mother may play a fatherly role. The first people in your life who act as authorities will strongly influence your ideas of success and the kind of success you will pursue. Generally speaking, you should have a very good experience with these people, and they will give you a great deal of self-confidence so that you can stand up for yourself. Eventually you will be able to make independent decisions and govern your own life as well as the lives of others.

Throughour your life, you will probably have a clear idea of where you are headed and what your objectives are. And in finding your way, you will get help from authority figures, such as parents and teachers. You are able to avoid serious confluct with others as you pursue your life goals, because you are willing to make compromises and to work with others so that all of you can achieve your goals. Although you are interested in getting ahead in life, you are not so caught up in yourself that you cannot help others. If necessary, you will even make real sacrifices for someone in whom you believe. Also, you are able to use other people's help in such a way that everyone benefits.

You are able to be independent and get along with others at the same time. Although you are not a follower, you don't need to dominate over others either. Your objective is to make your life worthwhile, but you can feel successful without having great popular acclaim. You have your own standards and goals, and you have enough self-awareeness to know when you are on the right track.

While you are young, you may not understand fully what you are doing with your life, but do not be impatient, for this understanding will come. You may have a number of different interests, but each of them will probably help you understand what you eventually should do.

Sun trine or sextile Midheaven (Karen Hamaker-Zondag)

With the harmonious aspects between the Sun and the Midheaven, these natives strike others as forthright yet well-adjusted individuals and so make a good impression. They are seen as capable, purposeful and energetic, and others observe a lively response from the natives. Once again, job and other applications are favored. And when they set some goal, their balanced approach should enable them to reach it. Others approve of the way they fit in.

With these aspects there is an urge to be self-reliant and enterprising - perhaps to be one's own boss - for, whatever the aspect between the Sin and the Midheaven, the natives always like to hold the reins in their own hands. Normally they are very successful in this; for example as the head of some large undertaking or, on a smaller scale, as a wife who rules the home and permeates it with her strong personality.
