Career & Job Astrology

Your career field is read from the sign of the 10th house and its lord, the strongest planet in the chart, and the D10. Each planet points to certain fields, and the full picture comes from reading these together, not from one factor.

Saturn is the general karaka of work and service, and the Sun of status and authority. But the field itself is shaped most by the 10th house, its lord and the strongest planet linked to it, since each planet is associated with different professions.

The Dashamsa (D10) is the divisional chart read specifically for career and profession. It gives a deeper view than the main chart alone, and is always read together with the D1.

Job leans on the 10th and 6th houses and Saturn, while business leans on the 7th house, Mercury and the strength of self. Which suits you depends on which of these is stronger in your chart.

Astrology shows your natural strengths and tendencies, not a fixed verdict. Your own effort and choices matter most, so it is best used as guidance to play to your strengths rather than as a rule that cannot change.

There is no fixed age in astrology. Timing comes from the strength of the 10th house and its lord, the 6th house, the Sun and Saturn, the D10, and the running Vimshottari dasha. A strong 10th house with a supportive dasha can bring a job early, otherwise it comes later.

Your date of birth alone is not enough. You need your full chart and the D10, which need your time and place of birth too. On Niyati, as soon as you enter your details, your chart, D10, dasha and transits are calculated, and you can then ask Niyati directly about your job timing.

A job tends to come in the dashas that are favourable to your 10th house, the 6th house and their significators, with transits sealing the time. Which dasha and transit open this window differs from chart to chart, so it is best checked against your own kundli with Niyati.

Delay is usually linked to Saturn afflicting the 10th house or its lord, a weak or afflicted 10th and 6th house, or the supportive dasha simply coming later in life. A delay is not a denial, and often points to a more stable career at the right time.

A government job is linked to a strong Sun (authority and government), a well-placed 10th house and Saturn, and certain raja yogas. But it is the combination in the full chart, not one factor, that shows the possibility, so it is best checked on your own kundli.
