Introduction
n
This book seeks to present a systematic study of the tenth
io
at
house. In the preparation of this book, a great number of
uc
ancient and modern bookshave been consulted.The intention
Ed
is to study the subject of Astrolory scientifically. The study of

al
any scienceis based on experiments, observationsand infer-

on
ences. Every science grows on the basis of the work of the

iti
predecessors,who devotedtheir lives to study, research,prac-

ad
tice and teaching. We grve the material from the works of the
Tr
ancient seers.
r
fo
But the rules given by them have some limitations. In

tre
thoee days, there were not so many professions as we have

en
these-dap. Therefore, it calls for fresh study, research,analy-

C
sis and conclusions.In addition we have given the opinions of

western authors that are basedon research studiee. We harrc
cpllected material fiom a large number of bmks by great
authorities and best writers both oriental and western on the
subject. Good number of exampleshave been added to illus.
trate the principlee. And in each, we do find the tnrth of
Astrological principles becomingprominent. We hopethat thirs
will arouse interest in the etudents for further study and
research.
There can be differencesof opinion among echolarson the
subject. If they are pointed out, we shall be happy to record
new opinions if found convincing.

In this book,we intend to presenta study of the tenth
n
tio
house, the determination of one's professionand financial
ca
position. Before entering into the suhject,we reproducehere
du
some of the basic principles of Astrolory for convenienceof

lE
ready reference.
na
In every horoscope,there are twelve houses' The ascen-

tio
dant is the sign rising at the time of birth. The tenth house
di
representsthJzenith. The fourth houserepresentsnadir. The

ra
seventh is the sign setting at the time of brith.

rT
Horoscopes are cast and represented differently in

fo
different parts of the country. The north Indian and South

tre
Indian patterns ar€ as follows:

In the north Indian method, the sigrrs are indicated by

numbers. The lagna, here, is the sigr indicated by 2 i.e.,
Taurus. The counting is done in the anticlockwise direction.
Thus, the fourth house falls in the sign 5 i.e., Leo. In the
seventh house, i.e., the sign Vrischika (Scorpio), Saturn is
posited. The tenth house falls in the sign of Aquarius.
The south Indian pattern is given on the rigth side.
Here the signs are fixed. In this book, we follow this as this
is widely used now-a-days in all parts of India. Readensshould
familiarise with both methods.

Theee27 stars are governd by the 9 planets. Each planet

rules over three stars at an interval of 120. Kethu over Aswini
Magha and Moola. Venus over Bharani, Poorva Phalguni and
Purvashadha etc. Each star denotesa division of the zodiac of
length 19"20'.ThusAswini denotesa distanceof 13"20' of the
zodiac fnom 0 of Aries. These divisions are extremely impor-
tant in prodictive astrolory. Each star extends over fpur
n
tio
Navamshas. Each NaVamsha denotes a portion of zodiac of
ca
length 3'20'. The true longitudesof the planets, can be easi\
du
obtained from standard panchangasor ephemerislike those of

lE
Lahiri. They should be enteredin the form of a table, denoting

na
the star and star lord for each planet.

Navarnsha ChaJca
The Navamsha chakra is very important for arriving at
correct ctnclusions. One cannot arive at the results Qerely
following the Rasi chart. Planets in Vargoththama become
auspicious. Lagna in Vargoththama navamsha makes one for-
tunate. QIq qtffi Erq - Mihira). A planet though weak in
nasi, if farrcurably poeited in the Navamshadiagram, derives
12 PrcfessiqnThroughAshologr
strenth. A planet may be debilitated in Rasi but may be exalted

in Navamsha. Then we cannot treat it as a bad planet. More-
over, with a little practice, by looking af the Navamshd {ia-
gram, one can know the star-lord of the planet. For these
resons the rasi chart should be always accompanied by the
Navamsha chart.
Each Navamsha measures 3o20'. The first Navamsna of

Aries is named Aries. The second is called Taurus etc, in the
order of Rasis. In this wa$, the first Navamsha of Taurus,
Virgo and Capricorn will be Qapricorn.
The first Navamshaof C'emrnr,Libra, and Aquarius w-in be
Libra.

Bhava Chakra
en
The Bhava Chakra should be ca-staccurately. The cusp of

C
the houses can be calculated very accurately using standard

ephemeris like those of Lahiri, Raphael etc. The Rasi chart
sometimes misleads. It is not enough. When the lagna is at the
beginning ofa sign or at the end ofa sign, one cannot arrive at
correct conclusions regarding the position ofplanets in houses,
without the aid of the Bhava Chakra.
A planet placed in the exact cusp of any Bhava will pro-
duce the effects of the house to the full extent. When it is at the
ends, it gives very little eflbcts. For other positions, we have to
guess the results by the method of proportion.
The method of prepartion of the Bhava Chaka should be
understood carefully from standard manuals of Astrologr.

Raphael's table of houses is considered to be very accurate'

they are posited. Saturn, Jupiter and Mars hare special as-
pects in addition. Saturn aspects the houses€ and 10; Jupiter
aspects the houses 5 and 9; Mars aspects the houses 4 and 8'
These special aspects are full aspects and are very important
n
tio

According to Varaha Mihira and other ancient writers, all
du
the planets have 1/4 aspect over the houses 3 and 10' They

Mars has full aspect over the 4th and 8th houses. Other
en
planets have 3/4 aspect over these houses.

C
The aspect of benefic planets Jttpiter, Venus,:Moon and

benefic Mercury over any house is good.
Full aspect betweenbenefics is also considered io be good'
Palnets aspecting their own houses greatly promote the
significance of the house. That house flourishes under such
circumstances. In the words of Prithuysas:

If a planet is placed in its own house, or aspects its own
house, the matters signified by the house, flourish.

Let us ondsider the fol-

lowing horoscope. Here 3 Jupiter

In this way the aspects are considered. Here the aspect

iti

Weetern Aspects:- Westerners consider the aspect be-

r
fo
tween the planets in a di{ferent manner. It is useful to be

tre
familiar with their methodsalso.Here the angle betweenthe

en
aspecting planets is censidered.

C
1. Conjunction. Conjuction of benefic planets is ex-

tremely good.When maleficsand beneficscombinethe benefic
losesits beneficial nature and the malefic ite cruel nature.
2. Parallel. This occurswhen the aspectingplanets have
the same degree of declination, above, below or on opposite
sides of the equator
3. Oppoeition (180").This is denoted by the symbol 0.
Oppositionbetweenmaleficsis condideredto be evil.
4. Trlne (120). This is denoted by the symbol A. and
is considered to be a powerful aspect, re4l auepicious in

nature.
5. Sextile (60). This is denotedby the symbol *. This is
also auspiciousin nature.
6. Square (90). This is denotedby the symbolE. This irs
onsidbredl to be an evil aspect.
?. Sesqutquadrate (136").This is denotedby the symbol
Et and is consideredto be evil.
8. Biqulntile (144").This is denotedby the symbolt. This
aspeet is good in nature.
9. Semlsquare (45"). This is denoted by the L and is

Stellar Positions
ra
rT
The true longitudeeof eachplanet, at birth time, should be

fo
aeurately calculated with the help of somestandard ephem-

tre
eris or good Panchanga. The Ayanamsha used should be re-

en
oordedin the form of a table. Then, it should be found out in

which gtar is each planet plaed. Then the lord of the star
C
should be recorded. There is close aonnection between the

planets and their star lords. During the Dasha periods also,
one experiencesthe results of the star lords. If we ignore the
star lords and only dependupon the rasi chart, it will be moet
incnmplete.Very many facts cannot be explained adequately
unlessthe nature of the star lord is included.In stellar Astrol-
oS/, even the star-lords of the various cusps of houses are
calculated and recorded.

Vargas of Planets: Division Charts

1. Rasi: This irs a division of 80,, arc length. (e.g.) Aries,
Taurus etc.
2. Hora: When a sign is divided into two equal
halves, each part is called a Hora. It is of 1b,'arc length. In
odd signs the first Hora is ruled b.y the Sun and the
second Hora is ruled by the Moon. Reverse is the case with
the even sign.
Prelirninaries t7
3. Drekkana: (Decanate) When a sign is divided into 3

equal parts, each is clled a decanate. Each drekkana is of 10"
length.
The Ist, IInd, IIIrd drekkanas are ruled by the lords of
the sign, the lord of the 5th and the lord of the 9th there-
from.
4. Navamsha: This has been already explnined.
5. Dwadashamsha: When a sign is divided into 12
equal parts, each is called a Dwadashamsha. The lords of
the 12 signs, from the sign concerned, rule the 12
Dwadashamshas.

On the other hand, if it is situated irr inirnical signs, it

Chapter II
Planets and Profession
n
io
at
Plannets in 10th house, lord of the 10th house, those influenc-
uc
ing Lagna, lord of lagna, the Sun and the Moon, are all
Ed
significators of profession.
al
The signs oaupied by the significators of profession also

on
influence the nature of the profession.

iti
ad
Consideration of all the three lagnas - Janma lagna,

Tr
Chandra lagna and the Surya lagna is necessary. So the great

r
fo
writers have recommended. Varaha Mihira says: t{*d: I q

tre
mears Janma lsgna, F{ means the Moon and ef* the Sun.
en
Planets having the greatest influence over these do indicate

C
the professions.
Thus it is necessary to know the professions indicated
by the different planets and by the signs first of all. Then
these have to synthesised together. For this, one has to study
a good number of horoscopes. Also, the same person will
follow different occupations at different periods. For this,
it would be necessarlr to examine the dasha periods he will
be running. The nature of the planets vary according to
the aspects, conjuction, placement, the signs and houses
of occupation, the Navamshas they occupy, the stars
they occupy and so on.
Firstly we will broadly outline the jobs ascribed to each
planet.

The Sun indicates government service, trees, timber,
chanting of hymns, gambling, wool, medicine, metalwork,
gold, father, kings, fire arms, fire, poisons,and forests.
The Sun denotesemployment in the State Service, admin-
istration or management. It indicates people having much
authoriy and power.

The Sun denotesgovernment offrcials,kings and adminis-
tio
trators. One may be in a government service,or in the senrice

The Sun indicates one's father. When the Sun is connected

na
with the 10th house. One may have income through his father.
Or he may use his father's property as capital and thereby
tio
prosper. This can be so when the influence ofthe lords 9 or 5

connected with frre and frre arms.
Influence ofJupiter, as lord of 9th house would point out to
chantig of hymns and the profession of a priest. Or he may be
emplbyed in a mutt or a religious institution. The reason for
this is, that the Sun is a satvic planet. Influence of the 12th
house is also to be considered here. For the twelfth house is
said to have close connection with temples because the Sun
indicates timber. When it is connected with the lord of the 4th

the 10th house should be fairly strong so that one may not
waste his time in trying different professions. Thirdly house of
gains should'be strong enough so that one may be able to enjoy

at
status, and profession ofa person. In thisbook, we have given
uc
Ed
plenty of examples, a study of which will clearly point out to

the importance of this house. In the horoscopes of great men,

Surya lagna and the Chandra lagna. They exercise propound

influence on one's life. But eastern as well as western authori-

C
arriving at correct conclusions.

The tenth house has to be invariably judged not only from
the lagna but also from the Chandra lagna. This is considered
the opinion of ancient sages and scholars like Varahamihira.

of the planets placed in the lOth house from the Chandra

C
the judgement of any house three factors are to be mainly

considered: 1. the house itself,2. the lord of the house and 3.
, the Karaka planet of the house. Firstly note which planets are
placed in the house and then the planets are aspecting it. Then
. we should see the placement of its lord, in rasi and Navamsha
and its stellar position, lts association and aspects with other
planets. Lastly, the Karaka for profe*sion is the Sun. But if we
ane interested in the income from the profession, we must
, study Jupiter. The reader should refer to standard works like
; Phaladeepika, Jataka Parijata and Prashna Marga for under-
; standlng the rules regarding the judgement of Bhavas in
gendral. Here we gtve a brief outline of the most important
, points.

Saturn is afllicted. In the horoscope of Napoleon, Saturn is

a downfall too.

Bhagwan Gotq is a great Acharya of Hindu Astrology
io
-
whose views are held highly authoritative. at
uc
He says that all the planets placed in the tenth house

Ed
counted from Lagna or the Moon are to be understood

as
al
bestowers of income in their respective periods according

to
on
their karakatva or significance.

iti
ad
Also income can be told according to the occupation indi-

Tr
cated by the planets which rule the Navamashas in which

the
r
tenth house cusps from Lagna, the Moon, and the Sun fall.
fo
tre
This very view is repeated in phaladeepika by

-
en
Mantreswara also.
C
Thus it is very importq,nt to consider the three Lagnas:

_
Janma lagna, Chandra lagna and Surya lagna and the plinets
in the 10th house from these lagnas. Then the lord
of the
Navamsha in which the lord of the 10th house counted
from
these lagnas is to be considered.
The results according as the planet placed in the 10th
h_ous9from these lagnas is briefly fouo*"r (These results can
".
also happen when the Sun etc. happen to be the Navamsha
Lords).
The Sun: property or wealth from father, wealth
through one's own exertion.

Satya-Samhita is a very important work in Astrolory.
.It is consideredto be the basis of Dhruva Nadi. It gives
very many important rules.
Satyacharya.asks us to consider the strength of the tenth
house and its lord: The etrength is judged by the rasi and
Navamsha in which the lord of the tenth house is situated.
Simitarly the strength of the lord nf +ho qtor in whinh thc Inrl
Plnnetsin the 10thHouse 87
of the 10th houseis placed,alsoshouldbe considered.Then the

casteand age ofthe personghould be considered.
If the lord of the 10th houseis placedin beneficrasi, amsa
and star, and has subha karthari yoga, (i.e., placed between
benefics) or is aspected by benefics or is in own rasi,
Moolathrikona or exaltation signs the professionwill bring
good fortune to him. If it is moderately strong, moderate
fortune is indicated.If it is nery weak, incomefrom profession
will be small.
Then one has to asc€rtain the yogakaraka for profession
i.e., significator for profession. (Planet placed in the tenth
house,its lord planets ruling the navamshain which the lord
of the tenth houseis placed).

If the Sun is the yogakarakafor profession,and is situated

du
service.

The nature of the signs has to be given great consider-

ation. Great writers on the subjectsay that airy signs (Gemini,
Libra, Aquarius) show much literary work. The fiery signs
(Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) denotemachineryand occupationsin
which ftre, iron, and metals are used.
The earthy signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) show work
connectedwith earth, agriculture, trade of corn, labour, healy
work, gardening, building, carpentary and masonarSl.
The airy signs (Gemlni,LibraAquarius) are termed scien-
tific signs. They only indicate literary work, mental occupa'
tions, interest in scientiflc studies, and shop-keepingetc. The
n
sign Scoropio produces doctors, physicians and chemists.

di

Westerners recommendanother method. Note in which

type of signs majority of the planets are situated: movable,
en
C
fixed or common.
(1) If the majority of the planets are found in movable
signe, it makes one very energeticand actirre,ambitious and
hard working. He may be a leader, inventor, pioneer, a good
organiser or a good buglness man.
(Examle: C'andhdl's horoecope:5 planeti.r are in Chara
rasi).
(2) If the m4iority of the planets are in fixed sigrs, it
denoteeplain, rigid nature. Onebecomespatient and steadfast
and follows the rulee of descipline. They are successful in
government service, and other well established occupations

The planets owning the 10th house, placed in the L0th

the indications of the tenth house, provided they are not

of the 10th house, one gets opportunity to do meritorious
deeds.
The planets in the llth house, during their periods and
subperiods also will produce gains. So also the planets in the
2nd house and owningthe 2nd house.
The Dasha Bhukthi principles should be studied from
Phaladeepika, Laghu Parasari, Jataka Parijata and other
standard text books. We quote here only those relating to the

So, we have to consider planets placed in the tenth house,

the lord of the tenth house, planets associated with these
aspecting these and consider their Dasha-Bhtrkthi periods.

During the Da-shaof the lord of the 10th house the person
concerned will successfully complete any undertaking com-
menced by him. He will lead a happy life. He becpmesfamous
and gets a permanent position. He commands great respect.
All the good results are to be understood, when the planet is
strong and has benefic aspects, influence of benefics. Other-
n
wise results will be different.

Example: A certain person gets employment in Rahu-
uc
Ketu period. Rahu was aspected by the lord of 10th house

Ed
Jupiter. Moon was conjoined with the lord of the 10th house.
al
In the sign of the Moon, Kethu was placed. The nodes become
on
stronger than the planets when they are aspected or when

iti
they are placed in the signs of a planet.

ad
Tr
Thus, due care is to be given to the planets conjoined and

r
aspected by the lord ofthe tenth house.

fo

In another horoscope, a person gets appointment during

en
Rahu Dasha, Jupiter Bhukthi. Rahu was placed in 6th house,

C
in the sign of Mercury which was in the 10th house. And

Jupiter was placed in the star of the tenth lord.
Thus we find that of the Dasha lord and Bhukthi lord are
connected with 10th lord, even at the time of getting employ-
ment.
Similarly the lord of 2nd house, the planets placed in the
second house, planets assoclated with the lord of second house
have to be considered. Also we should consider planets
aspecting these. AU theee, in their periods and suu-periods can
give wealth. See:

Also it is an established fact supported by ancient works

that planets during their dasha.sgive the effects of the planete
in whose stars they are placed. Thus Jupiter when placed in

The periods of yogakarakas generally prove very

auspicious.One should apply the rules of "Jataka Chandrika"
for studying the nature of periods and sub-periods.Promo-
tions and gains of wealth are possibleduring the sub-periods
of benefics having connectionwith 1,2,5,10& gth houses
during the course of the dasha of a yogakaraka. This will
be more so, when the lords of the major period and the
sub-periods are friends of each other and are favourably
situated.

C
aspect, posited in inimical signs, signs of debilitation, in

heliacal setting brinp about loss of wealth in its periods
and sub-periods. Same is the result when if becomesuseak
in Gochara.
When a planet is favourably placed in the secondhouse,
it gives wealth. But if it is heavily afllicted, it will bring loes
of wealth. For example, Jupiter in the second house gives
good amount of wealth provided it has the strength to do
so. This will be so when it is in exaltation, friendly sign,
own house etc.

Though Janmalagna is of primary importance, in this

r
fo
respect, consideration of Chandralagna is also required. Very

often planets placed in lagna or Chandra lagna signiff the
tre
profession. In Phaladeepika it is mentioned that in the dasha

en
of the strong lord of lagna, one's prosperity continuously in-

C
creases. From these considerations, it is clear that asc€ndants

and planets plaeed therein have a great influence over one's
wealth.
Strong planets placed in the lagna signiff the profession. If
Mercury is there, the person may earn his livelihood through
writing or teaching.
When three or more auspicious planets occupy the ascen-
dant, people born are happy, prosperous and wealthy like
kings. On the other hand if three or more evil planets occupy
the ascendant people born are ovencomewith grief, diseases,
fear and rejected by others. So oys Saravali (a classical text on
Importance of I-a,gna in the Judgement of Weolth lO7
Hindu Astrologr).
Sunapha, Anapha, Durudhura and Chandradhiyogas,
have reference to Chandralagna.
Gajakesari yoga arises when Jupiter is in a Kendra posi-
tion from the Moon. (Even here it is with reference to Chandra
I,agna).
In Sakata yoga, Moon does not get the benef,rcinfluence of
Jupiter since they are in 6,8 houses mutually.
, In Brihat Jataka, Mihira says:

When Lagna or Moon falls in Vargothama Navarnsha and

In Saravali, it is told that when the lord of the lagna is

From this discussion, it will be clear that Lagna and

Chandra lagna deserve close scrutiny in matters concerning
fo
wealth. Westerners too, attach great importance to the aspects

tre
received by the Sun and Moon in considering money matters.

According to Pgrashara's
rules too, if malefics have con-

Even a malefic planet, poeit€d in own sign or exaltation

Thus it is a method of divining the result taking
into consideration all the three lagnas-Janmalagna,
Chandralagna and Suryalagna. It is said in Parashara llora
that results of the houseecan be known very clearly from this
Sudarshana Chakra.

The house conjoined or aspected by the lord and the
benefics flourishes. The house occupied or aspected by
malefics, decays. The hous€ which ie subjected to the evil
influence of a very large number of evil planets, naturally
becomesweak and its significance becomesfeeble.
In ancient times, the practice of judging the horoscope
with respectto all the three lagnaswas very much in vogue.
This becomes clear from many ver€€€rof Varahamihira in
Brihat Jataka such as 3qg{ffitffi IRcII:etc.

Even in the matter of guessing one's profession,

It is no novel method, but only an old method taught by our

A planet which is a yogakaraka with respect to all the

on
three lagnas,gets threefold power to produe beneficreeults.

iti
And one malefic with respectto all the three lagnas,naturally

The planets may be divided into two sets.

2. Mercury, Venus, Saturn.

If all the three lagnae fall

into either of these two sets,

high order. L a gn a
Now we shall apply this Mo o n
Sudarshana Paddhati to the
horoscopes of a few persons Saturn

this procedure.

Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru.
Impofiotw of Ww in the Judeement of Wealth lll
The lagna, Chandra lagna and Surya lagna all are ruled by
Moon and Mars, i.e., they are ruled by planets of the same set.
Mars is a benefic with respect to all the three. Mars is a
yogakaraka with respect to his Janma lagna and Chandra
lagna. It is the lord of the Surya lagna also. In Mars dasha,
Nehru became the vice-president of the Indian interim govern'
ment and later in the Mare dasha he became the Prime Min-
ister of India. The tenth house receives the aspect of its own
lord Mars; Venus and Mercury and the tenth house form the
Surya lagna" aspect of Jupiter. The role of Mars as also the
strength of the tenth house becomes more clear from consid-
erations of Sudarshana Paddhati.
n
tio
For want of space, and other considerations of difficulties
ca
of preparing diagrams we do not give them. The student can
du
easily draw thern and veriff for himself.

lE
If there is no planet in a house, the aspecting planets

na
determine the effect. If no planet aspects the house, the lords

tio
of the house will determine the eflbcts. Parashara recommends

di
the consideration of varga,sof the planets also. If a planet is in

ra
benefic varga,its strength increases.

rT

Mahatma Gandhi's horosc-opeis given as e:rample. At a

tre
glance, we are able to see the influence of the benefic planets

en
on the tenth house. It is aspected by the benefics-Venus and

Mercury. It is occupied by Moon and Jupiter. All are in
C
friendly signs. Mahatma Gandhi was a lawyer (influence of

Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury over the lOth house). He was a
great leader. (MoonJupiter influence).
Now we will describe a rough method for judging the
profession without drawing this diagram. Firstly, write down
lagna, lord of lagrra, Chandra lagna, lord of Chandra lagna,
Surya lagna, lord of Surya lagna, and against these enter the
names of the d i fferent planets in fl uencing these by oeupation,
conjunction, and aspects. The profession is determined by the
planets having the maximum influence. Or sometimes, the
profession will be one indicated by the group of planets influ-
encing these lagnas to the maximum extent.

Importonce of Lagna in the Judgement of Wealth t2r
As we have mentioned earlier, in the opinion of the great

writers, all the three lagnas i.e., Janrma lagna, Chandra lagna
and surya lagna are to be considerqd. out of these the first two
lagnas have to be invariably considbred. IfVenus is only in the
lfth house from Janma Lagna there will be no poverty' The
persnn will be rich. But if it is placed in the 12th house with
bf""ett"" to the Chandra lagna and the Surya lagna, one can
imagine the extent of good results and wealth it can produce.
An e.-xampleof this is the horoscopeof Queenvictoria, in which
Venus happens to be in the 12th house from all the three
lagnas since the sun and the Moon are situated in vrishabha
lagna.

I(arakakhya Yogas
The Pqncha Maha Punrsha Yogag
Varahamihira, in hig celebrated work, Brihat Jataka says
that a person is fortunate when his birth is in Vargoththama
(same sigu in Rasi and Navamsha), when there is a benefic
planet in the Vesisthana (2nd house from the Sun), when the
angles are not empty and when there are Karaka planets.

Mihira's verses are full of vast meaning and Brihat Jataha is
tio
no ordinary work. It is supposed to contain very many secret
ca

principles of Astrologr.

The Pancha mahapurusha yogas are respectively

Ruchaka, Bhadra, Hamsa, Malavya and Sasa Mahayogas.

They are caused respectively by Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Ve-

tre
nus and Saturn when these planets happen to occupy Kendra

en
houses, identical with their own signs, exaltation signs, or

C
Moolathrikona signs. To illustrate, Ruchaka yoga is caused

when Mars ocanpies a Kendra house identical with its own
sign, exaltation sign, or Moolathrikona sign. These five yogas
have been grven great importance by almost all classical writ'
ers and have been included under Karakakhya yogas by
Varaha Mihira. In the horoscopes of great men, their presence
is frequently noticed. And unless there are rrcry bad yogas'
maning the horoscope, the effect of these Pancha
mahapurusha yogas seldom fails.
Mantreswara says that these five yogas can be considered
from Moon's position also:

the indications of the various signs. Also we hane girrcn the
professions which dre probable for different planetary combi'
nations. We have aslo given the traditional nrleg for determin'
ing the profession. One should not think that profession is
solely determined by the tenth housealone. It is here that the
difliculty arises. lOth house has se\€ral indications. It indi'
cates performanc€sof religious rites also. The 10th house tus
to be consideredfrom the lagna and the Chandra lagna. For in
many cases, the Chandra lagna may be mor\e powerful in
exerting its influence. Apart from this, we gave the rules for
detemining the aptitudee. The horoecopehas to be judged as
n
a whole. Then we should not ignore the influences of Chandra
tio
lagna, Janma lagna and Surya lagna in guessing the profes-
ca
sion. For, the lagnqs glrc a gooddeal of information about the
du
person. His aptitudes, nature, and profeseionare some times

lE
indicated by the influence of planets on the lagnas. For this,

na
Sudarshana Paddhati may be adopted. Lastly, the yogas

tio
present in the horoscopeare to be carefully noted. For, it is

di
theseyogas which rais€ a man to a high status in life. Infoma-

these principles, we may now study some illustrative horo-

It will be a rewarding experlenceand surely they will notice

the role played by planets in regard to the choiceof profession.

Also, as we said earlier, the Navamshachart, and Bhava chart
shoud be prepared and then only the horwcope can be studied
properly. The distinction between Rasi and Bhava has to be
borne in mind. Also the Naramsha Chakra ie of great impor-
tane. A planet may appear rrery weak in the r.asi but may be
strong in the Navamsha chart. Then we cannot think that the
planet is weak. Similarly, readers would have notied that
Mihira, Satya, Farasara etc., attach great importance to
Navamsha. In fact, they want us to d€cidethe profession by a
eonsideration of the lord of the Navamehain which the lord of

Mars has exchanged houses with the Sun. These two are
closely connected and therefore Mars derives much strength
and authority. From the Sun Mars in is 10th house. There is
connection between lords of 2nd and 10th houses. As Mars
denotes leadership and Sun is for C'overnment, she headed the
Government of a great country.
There is Clear Ingna.dhi yogo.
Also Sun which is strongly connected with Mars is related
to Jupiter by aspect.Thus lords of 2,9,6, and 10 are connected

io
together. Not only this, Venus and Jupiter are closely related
at
because they have exchanged signs. Venus is the lord of 4 and

Now we will study the tenth house in pa.rticular. It fialls in

iti

the sign of Aries. It is not subjected to any malefic influence.

Tr
Its lord is Mars. Mars is situated in the 2nd house. It is strong

'becauseit is in the sign of Sun. Not only this, it hae exchanged
r
fo
signs with the Sun. Sun indicates royal power. It represents

tre
Government. Thus Mars gets inmense power. Thus there is

en
close relation between the lords of 5, 10 and 2nd houses. 6th

C
house represents ministership. Since the 10th house is 8o

powerfully connected with the 5th house, ministership was
bestowed. Readere will further note that Mars is the
Yogakaraka for Cancer ascendant. There is much mone rea'
son. The Sun has combined with benefic planet Mercury.
Jupiter is Bharyadhipati. Ordinarily it may be regarded weak
in the sign of Taurus. Here it is not so. Jupiter has exchanged
signs with Venus. Venus is Labhadhipati Jupiter is
Bhagradhipati. Thus Bhagadhipati and Labhadhipati are
very strongly related. And such a Bhagiadhipati Jupiter is
aspecting the Sun. Jupiter is by nature a benefic. Herc it is the
Jord ofthe 9th house further. Such ajupiter aspects the lord of
th€ lagns by its powerful, benefic, trine aspect. Mars is

aspecting the Sun and Mercury. Readers will notice, that a

number of benefic yogas are present . Powerful Vasumad' yoga
is also present. Jupiter is in 11 and has exchanged signs with
Venus lord of 11. In the 6th house Venus is present. In addition
to this, therg is Lagnadhi yoga. All theseyogas, have given the
