Next we should examine the
10th house both from the Lagna and the Chandra (Moon). They
represent among other things the occupational activities of the person
concerned and strong 10th houses from the Lagna and the Chandra
(Moon) are considered as one of the arguments in favour of a successful career
and fruitful life. A weak 10th house proves the proposition and it
is one of the factors which point to the opposite and adverse conclusions
regarding the occupation. If the 10th house both from the Lagna and
the Chandra (Moon) are strong or weak the Astrologer’s task becomes easy and
simple. His opinions are quickly made; the findings are positive and the
conclusions are absolute; if, however, both the 10th houses from the
Lagna and the Chandra (Moon) are neither strong nor weak, i.e., one is strong
and the other is weak the task of the Astrologer, the task of adjusting the 10th
house in question, gets complicated. The various factors upgrading the one and
pulling down the other are to be thoroughly examined, measured, weighed and
balanced and the necessary adjustments are to be made and the balance to be
struck in order to get down at the facts and to reach the conclusions.
We shall enumerate the
factors which make the 10th house gain in strength and which enables
us to label the 10th house powerful enough to be considered as one
of the arguments in favour of a successful occupation and an eventful life. The
10th house which contains its lord is deemed strong. It gains in
strength if a Planet happens to attain exaltation therein. The 10th
house which is fully aspected by its lord gets upgraded thereby. The Surya
(Sun) becomes powerful if it occupies the 10th house and the 10th
house becomes powerful if it contains the Surya (Sun). If, however, the 10th
house happens to be the house of the Surya’s enemy the gain both to the Surya
and the 10th house is nominal by the occupation of the Surya of the
10th house. Again if the Surya (Sun) gets debilitated in the 10th
house, the result is very negligible gain to both the Surya (Sun) and the 10th
house.
The 10th house
is upgraded if it contains the lord/lords of the 5th and/or the 9th
house provided the 10th house is not the house of their enemies or
provided in the 10th house they do not happen to be in their
debilitation.
The lords of the Kendras
also benefit the 10th house by their occupation thereof but the gain
is comparatively less. This is nominal the 10th house happens to be
the house of the enemy of the lords of the Kendras which occupy the 10th
house. Again the gain will be nominal if in the 10th house the lords
of the Kendras happens to be debilitated. The lord of the 10th house
is also to be examined to measure thoroughly the strength of the 10th
house. A strong lord of the 10th house well placed and well aspected
in the horoscope strengthens the 10th house. The lord of the 10th
house is strong if it occupies its own house; it is also strong if it occupies
the sign of its exaltation; it is stronger if besides being in its own house or
in its sign of exaltation it occupies its own Navamsa or the Navamsa of its
exaltation. It is exceedingly strong if besides being in its own house or in
its sign of exaltation it occupies at the same time its own Navamsa or the
Navamsa of its exaltation and the Nakshatra of a friend, or its own Nakshatra.
The lord of the 10th house gathers strength by the full aspect of
its dispositor – a Benefic or a Malefic. The lord of the 10th house
gets strengthened by the full aspect of a strong Benefic. A Malefic which rules
the 5th or the 9th house and which does not suffer from
ay other Dosha strengthens by its full aspect the lord of the 10th
house.
