Similarly,
it has to be remembered that the 10th being the house of creation,
action and the 5th that of creativity, the potential for action, the
6th-8th relationship between the two is meaningful. One
cannot smoothly act unless the conditions necessary for the same are present.
The 10th is an impediment for the 5th because it is
located 6th from it; obviously the urge cannot have an easy go if
the 10th house is not strong enough to meet the challenge of the 5th.
Uttarakalamrita,
khanda V. Sl. 1 attributes livelihood as on of the factors governed by the 1st
house. This is understandable as the 1st house denotes the natural
and personal traits. The nature of profession, a person follows is determined
by the nature of the planets influencing the lagna-factor i.e. the lagna and
chandralagna and their lords. Saravali Adh. 22. Sl. 12, says - `When the Sun is
located in any sign of Venus (Taurus and Libra) and is aspected by the Moon the
man is fond of prostitutes, he supports, many women and lives by
watery-vocation.’ (Note – it would be observed that there is not the remotest
reference to the 10th house in the Sloka and yet it is very clearly
stated the profession is one of by watery vocation - `Saliajeevi’). Jataka
Parijata. Adh. II. Sl. 56 says - `The house in which the lords of the Lagna and
the 2nd house are located indicates the source of one’s livelihood.’
Brihat Parasara Hora-Purbakhanda-Karkamas Graha – Phaldhyaya-Adh. I. Sis 22-30
deals with the livelihood-result of various planets in Karkamsa. Since Karkamsa
is in the nature of Lagna, it is clear that Lagna is relevant to the question
of determining profession.
Kendras
are theh pillars of the horoscope. Kendras reveal what are within and they get
expression and manifestation through konas. The 10th Kendra has two
konas viz. the 2nd and the 6th. Hence what is within the
10th gets manifested through the 2nd and 6th.
Planets occupying the 2nd and the 6th will express the 10th.
So the planets in the 2nd and 6th give the clue what will
be the a vocation of the native. If there is no planet in the 2nd
and the 6th then the lords of the two houses will mould the
avocation. Thus we see all the twelve houses of the zodiac have some
contribution in moulding the avocation. Mid heaven (i.e. the 10th
house) manifests, not the characteristics of one sign alone but also the
modifying characteristics of the other eleven signs all tending to make the 10th
what it is.
There is no separation in the unity of the zodiac. It is an endless
circle which cannot be broken.
To
decide the nature of profession and livelihood, the key-qualities of the planet
or planets influencing the 10th will help us to arrive at a facile
judgement.
Beside
other significations the Sun is a creator, promoter, owner, manager and
physician. He also rules government, brokerage or commission. When the planet
that proves to be the deciding factor as regards a person’s livelihood, happens
to be the Sun the person may get rulership of a country, land, province,
district, etc., royal positions and dignities, service under the Government,
administrator, a maintainer or law and order enforcement of commands. He may be
engaged in medicine, doing mediatory work or highly authoritative jobs in
Forest Department, Municipal Corporation etc.
The
moon is planet of fecundity and rules liquids, mind, mental work, unsteadiness,
movements changes, salt, seas, etc. If the Moon is deciding the profession then
the person’s job will have something to do with the following factors: Shell,
pearls, Salt, agriculture, ships, fish, hospitals, service to women (women
welfare), holy shrines, maternal property, etc. He may be a sailor, mariner,
navigator, fisherman, boatman, dealer-in-pearls, or one working in
pearl-fisher, mid-wife, nurse etc.
Mars
is a planet of action and rules profession involving rudeness or cruelty,
engineering works, fire, lands and daring operations. Callings involving
instruments, armaments & tools & department like police, military and
medical. The person’s will be connected with military preparations, doctor
(Surgeon), chemist, butchery, metallurgy-generally all works in iron, steel of
firer.
Mercury
is a planet of reasoning or education. Governs merchandise, and profession like
clerks, accountants, auditors, copyists, teachers, authors, translators,
postmen, messengers, astronomers, mathematician, publishers, printers, etc. are
due to the influence of Mercury.
