The Midheaven, also called the MC, is the zodiac degree highest in the sky at the time of birth. It is one of the main career and public-life indicators in a natal chart, showing reputation, ambition, visibility, achievement, and long-term direction.
This point describes how someone is seen in the outer world and what they may work toward over time. The Midheaven sign, ruler, and aspects can add detail about vocation, authority, public role, professional goals, and the kind of legacy a person may want to build.
