Career in IT or IAS Job

Received the following email from a querist.

Dear Sir,

             I am XXXXX residing in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. I would like to know my complete astro details mainly focusing on my career. kindly help me with the same. Most importantly i want to know my accurate passion since i am very much confused in my career, and also i would love to pursue my passion as my career. Below are my details,

DOB : 25/06/1987

Place of Birth : Bangalore

Time : 12.17pm (Afternoon)

 I will tell you my relevant working  area but providing so, will it not be easy for you to map. Please dont misunderstand me because i had some previous experiences in which people used to ask my current working area and suggest me fields which are close to it or possibilities. But i seriously am requesting you and trusting you for accurate predictions since i always feel some what unsatisfied. I really really want to know my passion sir. People say in astrology even diseases can be predicted accurately with time, positionand nature. When things like these can be found out, why not passion sir?? I always think hard about what i like but i am not able to find. Please help me out sir. Sir with all these being said i am giving out my working area. I have done BE in Computer Science and Engg. and MS in Computer Science and Networking. I had a gap of one year between 2009-10 where i was less seriously preparing for IAS. I didnt take IAS that seriously. Sir having said all these i am relying on your inputs badly.

Your 10^th lord has Gemini sign. It has 3 planets in 10^th house. Mercury, Sun and Mars. Mercury being lord of ascendant / lagna and 10^th house is in own sign which is very good indication. Mars being lord of 8^th house and 3^rd house is also conjoined in with Mercury in 10^th house. This indicates strong career possibilities either in Insurance sector or in communications or Publication sector. The 8^th house represents things relating to History, dead people, sudden transformation  where as the 3^rd house represents Courage, communications, publishing, information technology.  Mercury is the significator of communication, Intelligence, Buddhi. Mars is significator of courage, authority , engineering, logic based professions such as mathematicians. Therefore from this analysis perspective job in IT sector or IT department in a Telecom company also suits you well. You will get positions of authority in your job.

The 12^th house lord sun (12^th house is house of losses, expenses, secret enemies, foreign land) has also conjoined with Mercury and Mars in 10^th house. SUN and Mars get directional strength in 10^th house hence possibility of you getting a foreign job is there during the Mahadasha and antardasa of Mercury, Mars and sun.

The 3^rd house , which is 6^th from10th house has Saturn placement which will result obstacles in your career . You will face disappointment and hindrances in career when Saturn Mahadasha or antardasha comes or during the transits of Mercury, Mars and Sun , they get associated with Saturn.

Jupiter , owner of 4^th house (7^th from 10^th house ) and 7^th (10^th from 10^th house) house is placed in 8^th house (11^th from 10^th house). Presence of Jupiter in 8^th will increase the gains from profession.  It will also promote the ethical income as Jupiter is representative of Dharma. Hence you don’t indulge in unethical practices and in case you do, Jupiter will establish your professional Dharma.

Since you are a Computers science professional, you are very right in this field as far as your current planetary positions in your horoscope is concerned. Why you are planning to do IAS is because SUN in 10^th house is a strong significator of job with the king (which in this case is Government of India)  and with position of authority and Power and name in society.

Your 10^th house of profession is very strong with presence of Sun, Mars and Mercury. Hence you may choose to be in Computer science field or opt for IAS. However , being a professional myself, I will strongly advise you to stay in Information Technology field and get some international experience as IT has a bright future.

SHADBALA

Looking at the Shadbala Chart, 10^th Bhava is number 2 Rank out of 12^th Bhava which concretes my observation.

Looking at the planetary strength SUN is Ranked as number one where as Mercury and Mars have 3^rd and 4^th Rank in the Graha Bala table. This shows that IAS job can be good for you in case you are interested in Govt job and wish to enjoy power.

The Navamsa chart also shows SUN in your 10^th house and Mars having 7^th aspect to 10^th house showing authority in profession. This once again confirms the strong possibility of Govt job with power.

Moon is the representation of mind and is placed in 9^th house with Venus. Saturn is aspecting Moon and Venus. Saturn is enemy of Moon but friend of Venus hence your mind will be under constant stress due to such aspect of Saturn which brings mental worries as its natural trait.

Dasamsa Chart Analysis

Your Dasamsa lagna lord is moon and the same is well placed in 4^th house and aspecting the 10^th house. This indicates movement in profession but within motherland only.

Jupiter is placed in 10^th house in dasamsa which is promising significant growth in profession. The lord of 10^th house is Mars and the same is placed in 9^th house of fortune which indicates that you will be very fortunate in your profession. The 9^th house is 12^th from 10^th house , it shows that fortune showers will come with connection with foreign land.

Mercury being the lord of 12^th house which represents foreign land, is in 7^th house (which is 10^th from 10^th house). Hence this is also a indicator of foreign land and aspecting lagna of D-10 chart.

Overall the probability of you landing in foreign job is higher than working in home land or Birth land.

Saturn is placed in 8^th house and is aspecting 10^th house which indicates sudden transformations and breaks in career. However it will promote the long duration in profession or in other words longevity of profession. You may change jobs but you may stay in same profession. That’s what we mean here.

lagna lord of dasamsa is in anant dasamsa in house 4 indicating endless fame in own country.

10th lord and 5th lord of dasamsa is in indra dasamsa in 9th house  which means service with king and enjoyment of power. This is a major Rajayoga giving huge fortune. Frequent long travelling and change of job will be there.

9th house lord of dasamsa is in ishan dasamsa in 10th house  indicating rightful and dharmic conduct in profession and thus creating a rajayoga.

House of gains 11th lord venus  is in ishaan dasamsa in second house of dasamsa chart indicating peaceful way of earning income with blessings of god and will accumulate wealth.

7th house lord of partners and associates of dasamsa chart is in ishaan dasamsa indicating good associates in profession but in 8th house of dasamsa chart. However the 12th lord is in seventh house indicating secret activities by associates to help the native in enforcement of rules because 12th lord is in yama dasamsa and lord yama is a justice giver.

3rd house lord mercury of dasamsa chart is in yama dasamsa in 7th house indicating lawful dealings with associates.

12th house lord mercury is in yama dasamsa in 7th house indicating losses from associates and partners in profession due to enforcement of rules.

Your Mahadasha and Antardasha periods

JUP Mahadasha -16 Years From 2/ 7/09 To 2/ 7/25

Antardasha of

JUP 20/ 8/11

SAT 2/ 3/14 (Your current antardasha)

MER 8/ 6/16

KET 14/ 5/17

VEN 14/ 1/20

SUN 2/11/20

MON 2/ 3/22

MAR 8/ 2/23

RAH 2/ 7/25

Saturn is placed in 6^th house from 10^th house in your chart. Hence this period of Saturn will be filled with mental worries and obstacles as far as service is concerned. The Antardasha lord is placed 8^th from the Mahadasha lord which is very inauspicious.

Therefore you will face lot of issues on domestic front because Jupiter is your 4^th and 7^th house lord but sitting in 8^th house of evil.
