midheaven

Astrological chart peak

Midheaven is an astrological term for the highest point in a birth chart, representing the cusp of the tenth house.

It marks where the ecliptic crosses the meridian at the moment of birth and is associated with career, public reputation, and life goals.

Astrologers interpret the sign and planets near someone's midheaven as indicators of professional tendencies and how a person presents themselves to the world.

Her midheaven in Leo suggests a career in the spotlight.
