My father had Scorpio Mercury; he worked as a cryptographer for the military in WWII. (He was older when I was born.) His Mercury conjunct my north node. My journals are full of astrology glyphs...conversations I have with myself about time. My mother's NN in Scorpio also, square Pluto. She wrote all her notes in shorthand. No one in the family could read them. (Edit: well maybe my dad could, I just never knew it.) Just makes sense for a secretive sign to dig into alternate ways of recording information. === As for computers and coding: Obviously, Bill Gates is a Scorpio, with Venus conjunct Saturn in Scorpio. His Saturn conjunct Steve Jobs'. Mark Zuckerberg's a Scorpio moon. Gottfried Leibniz, inventor of binary code: www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Gottfried_von_Leibniz11th house Scorpio Uranus opp Taurus Venus-Mars. Just thinking about this, wondering if others have noticed the pattern. Pls don't quote |

I am 8th house Gemini sun merc, Scorpio Asc. So, I suppose I fit in a way.
In the programmer phase of my career, I ran into lots of earth signs. Boss was a Taurus, supervisor was a cap, then fellow programmer was virgo. But I began to suspect that the boss just had an unconscious hiring bias for earth signs. His partner was a Virgo, the shop manager was virgo, even his wife, who was the office manager, was a virgo. His longest lasting salesman was Capricorn as well. I figured I snuck in because my taurus jupiter was conjunct his sun nearly exact.

That's interesting geminiblues. Now that you mention it, my Taurus son with Taurus Mercury is into coding, moreso than my other children. He's not secretive about it, though...I mean he likes to show me his work and try and teach me how to do it. Maybe earth signs like coding for practical reasons, while Scorpio is mindful of the security potential there. |

I work in IT and program - most of my planets are in earth houses (venus(chart ruler) and mars(6th house ruler) in the 10th), jupiter conjunct uranus in the 2nd. Pluto conjuncts my asc and also satrun in scorpio. My mercury is in virgo.
Two of the best programmers I know who have alot of subject knowledge(I might be biased because they are also my friends lol) - scorpio sun/mars and libra sun/scorpio moon.
scorpio mars are great in the area of IT - they have alot of patience and just get on with it.
Programming is a subject where you need alot of patience, good attention to detail in addition to seeing the bigger picture. Depending on the industry you are in you also need to work well under pressure - I would attribute these qualities to scorpio and virgos especially. It's nice to see results of something you have put effort into to build and it being used.

Yeah, I've seen that too. It also happens with Mercury-Pluto aspects. Although they may lend themselves to digging and research of any kind, not just code-breaking. If I had to pick, they (and moon-pluto folks) are the interrogators.
I've got Scorp merc-mars, albeit square Saturn, and I've been really involved/interested in cryptogaphy and more. But then my brain capsized and that was that. + some circumstantial currents, but anyway.
Scorp merc Rx colleague works in cyber security. A friend of mine (with whom I'd study cryptography) had Venus in Scorpio on my Merc/Mars. She went to have a career in a closely related field. Venus = what we value & how we bring/offer value to the world, IMO, so it says something about your profession.
'Will try to get more examples. There are, or seem to be several indicators we could find.
