Question #5471: Help with a difficult choice

[AskSatanOperator]

Hello, everyone. This is not a spirituality-related question but it's a life management question. We all know it's important to progress in your lives to reach higher levels of advancement. Please, bear with me while I give you some background knowledge behind my indecision.

I accepted an offer to study at a very good university 2 years ago. But, due to some issues with securing funding as well as some mental health and relationship issues, I was given a retrospective interruption of studies, which then turned into a forced withdrawal due to non-payment of fees. 2 years later now, the situation with funding has been fixed and my student record has been re-activated. That, however, thwarts all my planning.

Having struggled with unemployment, I had planned to work this whole year to make some savings before going back to university in September 2025. Despite everything, I feel like I'm not in a position to ask for another interruption of studies. It doesn't help that, to add complexity to the problem, I tried to transfer to my top-choice university and they said 'no'. Not now because the foundation programme I want to transfer to is full, and not next year because my current university's foundation programme allegedly doesn't align well with the undergraduate programme I would be progressing toward right after.

These are the options I have at the moment:
- Withdraw completely from university and reapply for next year, hoping I will still get some good offers and basically spitting in the face of this very good university I'm registered with at the moment.
- Stay in the current university and start this year without changing from my Biological Sciences with Foundation MSci programme to a Computer Science with Foundation MSci programme.
- Stay in my current university and start this year changing to the desired programme.

Now, the reason behind the change is for "future-proofing". According to my analysis, fields like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and big data will offer the most job security and growth in the next decade and beyond. Biological sciences may be a field too difficult to get in and without much growth. I'm happy to hear arguments agreeing or disagreeing with this. What's certain is that not having a degree is the biggest reason behind my unemployment.

From a birth chart point of view, I don't have any particular direction of what I should do. I have a 10th house stellium (Sun, Mercury, Venus) in Sagittarius. The North Node is also in that house. Scorpio is on the cusp of my 10th house, making Pluto my 10th house ruler. Pluto is also tightly conjunct the MC (less than 1 degree) from the 9th house side in Scorpio. I have many fixed stars aspects that give both military aptitude and talent for the sciences in general, not to mention Mercury is strongly aspected my chart ruler Uranus, which is in the 12th house in Capricorn.

Pisces is on the cusp of the 2nd house, with its ruler Neptune tightly conjunct my chart ruler. No planets in the 2nd house. Cancer is on the cusp of my 6th house with no planets in. The 6th house ruler is in the 8th house in Libra.

Other factors supporting higher education (in my opinion): Jupiter, my stellium ruler, is in the 9th house too in Scorpio. Before anybody says my Sagittarius doesn't really have a stellium because Sun, Mercury and Venus are often bundled up together, I have to tell you there is also a 4th planet in the stellium, Mars, which is in the 11th house.

There's some more non-spiritual factors further complicating my choice. Financial support from the government for higher education is legally for a maximum of 4 years. I already used 2, which means the last 2 years would be completely on me, unless they took into account the mental health issues for the first 2 years, which allows them to extend support for as long as necessary. Either way, I cannot live anymore in "ifs" and "maybes", so it's best to prevent any issue by making savings.

To get maintenance support from the government, I need to work at least 10 hours a week during my studies anyway, due to my immigration status which changes next year.

What are your thoughts? What would you do in my situation?

Hey, how are you? Just breathe my friend.
First thing: do not share that chart info with people unless they are clergy as some may find it and not use it in a good way. Don’t feel bad though I made that mistake a few weeks ago.

As for your decision, why don’t you talk with your university about maybe not going this year so you can assure them you can pay?

You seem to be torn between the two because you not sure which to Persue first. Personally I had this issue as well. I couldn’t decide weather to do school or work or self work. What I did was self work, which sounds like you did( if not I can help there) Trust your intuition
From what I read I believe you want to not go to school but are afraid of losing reputation and respect and are worried. Just talk with the school and see what they say. The Gods guide us. Do what you feel and they guide you too. Sometime you can’t progress as you are going about it from the wrong angle.

This doesn't apply here because the AskSatan account is an anonymous account and the whole reason why the Ask-Satan section exists. If you read the description of this section, you'll find out it's exactly for posting anonymous questions with private data like birth chart data and things that you want to keep private. So things you cannot post from your real account.

What are your thoughts? What would you do in my situation?

Greetings, Brother / Sister!

First, my congrats with great chart and opportunities.

10th is of higher purpose and highest self-realization, the peak of human dignity, ambition, greatness, realizing full potential. 10, 11 and 12 I call higher houses that deal with absolute influence on the world, "presidential charts" as I call it because of them being mostly about impact, 12th highest potential when utilized for humanity being about MO.

In your situation I believe this is extremely important (and is the challenge of your stellium obviously) to find what is your Destiny Call not what will "suit for money" or other lower purpose. Profession is a way of highest self-realization. 10th is not 2th nor 8th. It is about service to humanity, highest and noblest. The sphere should not be chosen by lower interests such as money or fame and other lower ego purposes. They should be chosen by what resonates with your higher and true self. You have to go to Gods with it. Telling it just by your Stellium and Ruler of the Stellium feels like impossible thing for an astrologer because it can be whatever.

I looked for my Profession of the Dream all my life, it was my life's quest, and I went to Zeus with it (it was in the times he was called Satan here). And gradually I was led to the Idea Fix, Polar Axis which the worlds rotate around, to which I wished to give myself 100% to the end and do nothing in my life but it alone. Be its monk. Of course it was chosen to the disagreement of family (they had to accept - I told I did not need life without it), to the expense of good living and all future (destined to die in poverty) just I understood that I wanted nothing in life but it. Life simply meant nothing with all its money and other lower things without it. It was found through Zeus.

Not everyone have this fate - everyone's fate is different as everyone's criteria is of course. You might have different criteria then to die at the stake for profession of the dream. I only tried to show you the energies of MC, NN and 10th house activation. Some people see the goal of their life to donate so they have to judge things by different criteria, but with the same higher energy of 10th. There are no right and wrong paths, there are just paths. The idea here is to feel Destiny Call, romantic and altruistic, Godly. Yet coming with it to Zeus and doing his ritual till understanding comes, I think would serve a good service to your choice.

Yes, your life goal is definitely connected somehow to Jupiterian / Sagittarian topic such as high education and/or high education institution as well, probably you being a professor there or such, or traveling abroad. This is up to you.

What I wish to say is before choosing where to spend these your two years that are paid by government (as far as I understood your post) I suggest you to ask Gods to lead you to your true Dream that will make you completely fulfill and realize your stellium. Realization / sublimation of the stellium is very important. These energies might go dangerous if not used in proper way for the higher purpose.

I am sorry, honestly I could not understand the official part of your post dealing with specific law situation of your country in regards to education and what your own financial issues have to do with it. But as far as what I could get out of your post is that you have 2 somehow "guaranteed" years left and you need to invest them into the right cause. Here you have to hear your heart call, what you really want to do in life. Nowadays people are very separated from their heart, usually by lower interests such as money, reputation, survival etc. That's why we have to come to Gods with it. Ask them to let you hear you true self.

Also if you do mistake, and young people can do mistake in these matters very often, do not worry, you can apply for second, third and endless education - you can pay yourself for them or ask your parents, relatives or friends to help you financially with it - later, when you find your path. Nothing wrong with being dependent for your purpose. The West now have psychic disease of trying to be independent early and force separate children from parents' house. Not every society is so insane. To live with parents and have all high educations needed is absolute norm and how every intelligent built their life. "16 years old kicked from home to have own business" - is not how Tesla or Mozart lived. Maybe its a good way for actual businessmen, but not all nor most meant to be one. Society needs other people too.

As for your astrology, other than stellium, prominent Scorpio and 8th house topic in regards to career sphere is very good for all kind of sciences & investigations because they give much depth and concentration. Neptune dealing closely with CR is not always about art or stage / performative arts thing. Of course you might have talent in related thing but if you do not really want it you are not obligated just by your astrology. Astrology is never an obligation it is how you use it that makes the difference and really matters. Neptune gives different talents, including that of science such as ocean investigations and chemistry, but can be even in those charts that experience extreme Destiny Call in the exact sciences - I saw such charts among Nazi. These might change and transform much in their science. This is because one can't judge the Destiny over one aspect. Destiny is very complex, especially when dealing with stelliums like in your case. Stelliums are dissolved only by following the extremely powerful Destiny Call / inspiration that you have to listen and hear by your heart.

Stelliums are also of great fate in profession. Mediocrity life is not good for the Stellium - it will wreck it over. Anyway whatever you choose I can show you typical stellium professions (almost no chart without stelliums) - they are never "easy":

This uneasiness gives them needed drive for their special missions. I also saw how extremely prominent scientists successfully dissolved worst stelliums including those surrounding Caput Algol:
