How it works

The top of your chart.

Needs birth time

Like the rising sign, the MC turns through every sign in a day. An error of an hour can move it by a whole sign.

Not the 10th house

In Whole Sign houses the MC usually lands in the 9th, 10th or 11th house, so the MC sign and the 10th-house sign can differ.

Career planets

The Sun, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury add detail. Their houses show where effort turns into recognition.
