Overview of Job Requirements

Job or Business in Astrology: Before explaining the Astrological combinations, that are perfect for the job as a Career, it’s really important to know, about the educational background, skills, passion, determination, and inclinations of a person.

At times, a person is not educated, but due to his cleverness, intelligence, and determination, he attains success. Such intellectuals make their way into the business world very quickly.

I personally believe that today is the era of proficient skills. To acquire your dream job, you need to be well equipped with the best skills and a spark to attain goals. Educational qualifications can certainly smoothen the career track, as in Educational Institutions, your teachers, mentors, study groups, and internship, these all together add to your overall personality.

I further add here that unless you work with someone, (founder of the company) who has reached heights in his career, your skills, and knowledge would be inadequate. As experience sharpens your skills and takes you towards achievement. The Lagna, Moon, and their respective Nakshatras articulate your talent and skills.

Now let’s find out those factors in a horoscope, which are the best combinations for the job.

Selection of Job or Business in Astrology

Overview of Business World

Businesses can be of many types. First, let’s understand the term Business. It can be a small-scale business, where a person buys a product from the wholesale market and sells in a retail market, keeping a marginal profit. Eg a shopkeeper. This kind of business only fulfills needs so it requires more physical effort than mental. Such a business cannot make huge profits.

On the contrary, big businesses work on a creative idea and serve the masses, such business requires skills and experience. Hence can gain profits and popularity. Let’s understand the combination of those profit-making businesses as this is important to understand that small scale business do not make huge profits so there will be fewer raj yogas or the chart will be afflicted.

Planetary Combination that depict Business in Astrology

• The Artha houses 2, 6, 10, and Upachaya 3, 6, 10, 11, houses are important in business as these are the wealth making combinations. Though according to Classics, these houses give problems, the truth is When a person wants money, name, and fame, he loses joy and happiness as work becomes his priority. Therefore, they get wealth but no eternal peace.
• The 7th house stands for Business or partnership. If 7th lord is connected with 3rd, 10th, 11th, and 2nd then there are chances of business.
• The 3rd house denotes courage, inclinations, and planning of your life. Therefore Malefic planets give the best results here, this is also the first Upachaya house. The planets posited in this house, will make you work hard, face obstacles, and take risks as this is 6th from 10th house. Though Business decisions are based on many factors, risks and courage is included among them.
• The 5th house planet or lord brings a change in profession. This is 8th from 10th house, so will bring obstacles and struggle, and 12th from 6th house, this will end the job period. therefore this is a house of change and execution of plans in the profession.
• Mercury is the karaka of Business. This planet signifies your decision making and analytical skills. Since this is the 3rd and 6th lord of the natural zodiac so it represents 3rd house things like agreement, contracts, media, and advertisements. And 6th house signifies Loans, dispute, competition, and debts. Well, there is no business, where all these things are not involved.
• The Rajyogas formed in the horoscope is of utmost importance. The Lagna and Lagna Lord related to the 11th house, 2nd lord and 11th lord, and also the yoga karakas. If these yogas are formed then the chances of success in business become very high.
• Above all, we can check the 2nd and 11th lord, 5th and 10th lord, and 9th and 10th lord strength in the Navamsha chart and Dasamsha chart as well. If there are wealth combinations and no afflictions then certainly there are chances of business prosperity and can make a person a business tycoon.

Job or Business in Astrology: Most Important Factors

The most important factor while deciding between career and job is the timeline. This can be checked by analyzing Vimshottari Dasha. So Mahadasha and Antar Dasha’s period is the most significant. These periods in fact signify that ongoing Dasha depicts job or business. If the running Dasha signifies the job combinations, like Dasha of the 6th lord or planets posited in the 6th house, it is better to take the job.

When Business signifying planets get active, like Dasha of 7th lord and 3rd lord, your mind will start working in the business direction. Above all, I would like to add that the Transit of planets has a lot of importance.

According to my experience, the event occurs only if all the planets collectively support the event. Though the topic of Transit is vast as of now I can say that Saturn and Jupiter transit should definitely be supportive of the event. And then finally the Sun decides the month and Moon declares the day for the event.
