Tenth House
The House of Career
The tenth house is your public peak. It rules your career, your reputation and your role in the wider world, the legacy you are quietly building at the very top of your chart.
The cusp of this house is one of the chart's four angles, the Midheaven, a sensitive point that carries extra weight in your chart.
What the tenth house rules
Ambition, achievement, authority, and how you are seen professionally. It is the mark you want to leave behind.
Planets in the tenth house
Planets here shape your ambitions and your public image, and often point straight at the work you are here to become known for.
The sign on your tenth house cusp
This is your Midheaven. It shows your calling: the direction your reputation and career naturally want to grow.
Naturally ruled by Capricorn. Each house has a sign that feels most at home in it. The 10th house belongs to Capricorn and its ruler Saturn, which is why this house carries a Capricorn flavour even before you add your own planets.
Which sign rules your 10th house?
This is the 10th house in general. Your own chart places a real sign on its cusp and may hold planets inside it, both personal to your exact birth time. Build your free chart to see yours.
