Nature of the 10th House

Astrobix |

Work is Worship! But, There is one query that haunts almost everyone at some or the other time in life. A person has to think of  - what work should I do? What is the right course for me? Am I in the right profession? Will I ever be successful?  Will I become  a businessman or will i serve for someone else ? How much will I be successful in my career?

The complete life is based on the work. Work or profession can be predicted through

  • The placement of the lord of the 10th house in the Birth chart.
  • The planet placed in  the 10th house
  • The lord of the 10th house.
  • The conjunction of the 10th lord with the planet.

In the present scenario, there is a very thin line left between various professions. As an author can be involved in intellectual avocation but sometimes he is involved in composing and printing hence that is economic avocation. So it has to be judged after considering various aspects of the horoscope. Thus, to judge the right profession has become more challenging. Today the world is of specialization. so judging the right profession has to be cross checked from various angles.

The karak for the 10th house is the Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn. If no planet is placed in the 10th house then the lord of the 10 house decides the profession of an individual. also, the position  of the 10th lord in the Navmansha has to be judged. If there are more than 1 planet in the 10th house then the one which is more stronger will decide the profession.
