Now a word about what the classics say.
According to Sarvath Chintamani, source of income should be declared from the
planets occupying the 10th house from the Lagna (Ascendant) or from the Moon
(Chandra Kundli). Stronger of the planets will determine the profession or
business of the native, if there is no planet in the 10th house,
support is to be taken from Nabamasha chart, Dasamasa Chart apart from
Deskhokone. However, according to Marteshwara (Phaladeepka), the profession of
the native is decided by the lord of the Navamsa occupied by the lord of the 10th house
from the Lagna, from the Moon and the Sun (severally) whoever is the strongest.
Be that as it may stress has been laid on the benefic or malefic nature of the
10th Lord. Detailed significations have been given to planets
and houses in Uttarakalmrita. Without analyzing in detailed significations so
far 10th house is concerned: Commerce, honor from the
Government, Service, Teacher. Here I may mention that is it's for the astrology
to apply their mind before the ticklish question as to what would be 'My
profession' is answered. The judgment has to be left to the astrologer to
pronounce results in view of horoscope before him, his experience and
God-gifted institution.
It is clear from the above that the
role of the planets in detaining the nature of profession and sources of
income for livelihood cannot be ignored. It may not be possible for me to refer
to the possible contributions by all the planets. The Sun represents the top
brass in older times as well in modern times i.e. the King (now President,
Prime Minister, etc. Member of political parties, Legislators, Ministers) even
lawyers, Judges and government servants including high officials. The Sun in
Scorpio or in Leo and at times in Aries is capable of making the native a king
say Prime Minster etc. from the past, I can quote, that Akbar the Great has Sun
in Scorpio, Alexander the Great had Sun in Leo, the Sun in Virgo produced
persons like Mahatma Gandhi, Adolf Hitler had both Sun Mars in Aries, and The
Sun in Aquarius produced a great Astrologer Bangalore Suryanarain Road.
Closely connected with Sun, I also
refer to the position of the Sun in the horoscope (Taurus as Lagna), the Sun
was in cancer with Venus, Saturn, Mercury and the Moon, in the horoscope of the
Congress with Saggitarius Lagna, the Sun was Scorpio and Mercurry in Scorpio,
the case of horoscope of Bhartiya Janta Party (with Gemini as Lagna), the Sun
was in Pisces and in case of horoscope of Shiv Sena, the Sun was in Gemini with
Cancer as Lagna. Though this information is connected with profession but has
been included as the politics has also come to stay as profession.
Summing up, it would be apt to say that
while pronouncing the judgment of profession, the Astrologer has to see the
horoscope form various angles and if there are no planets in the 10th house,
the results would depend on the placement of the 10th Lord aspects
on the 10th house and 10th Lord and
conjunctions, if any. Even Saturn in the 10th house is capable
of making the native a king or a leader of masses.
