What Midheaven in Aries means

A career you lead or start yourself: founder, officer, athlete, surgeon, anything with speed, courage and competition. You do best as your own boss or at the front of the charge.

The Midheaven (Medium Coeli, the MC) is the highest point of the zodiac at the moment of birth and the start of the 10th house in most house systems, so it needs the birth time. It stands for your career, calling, reputation and public life.

Its opposite, the IC at the bottom of the chart, falls in Libra: a peaceful, elegant home; you need harmony at home and someone to share it with.
