Jupiter in 10th house! Not good for professinal life?

[Govindaram]

Hi learned Members,

I have seen few ppl horoscope ..they are having guru in 10 th house and landed with a job. but they have some distress and unhappiness in their job. Jupiter in 10 th house is not good for professional life or career? i request all members to share their experiences!!!

Thank you

[elipsis]

I seriously doubt it. I don't think Nicholas Sarkozy, Steve Jobs and Emma Watson had bad careers.

[lovacrs]

Relatively speaking, there could be some problems when this placement happens in Ge or Vi, specially Vi.
This is because of natural enmity.

[Govindaram]

wat about its effect for taurus asc ppl?

[Ghrishneswar]

Jupiter is first rate malefic for taurus being owner of 8 and 11 h

[buwa82]

To contribute to this thread; aries lagna with jupiter in 10th house. Though he is financially sound, he could do much better considering all his abilities etc. Kind of getting stagnated. In short he should be in a much better place than he is right now.

[Govindaram]

Yeah Buwa82,

I agree with you! those who have jupiter in 10 th position have better capabilities and qualities, but they cudnt secure good job (qualified job)!A friend of mine has jupiter in 10 th house for taurus asc, he has good talent and energy but he wasnt able to get a good job!

Jupiter in 10th surely results in upheavals in Professional life whoever it is! Steve Jobs never had a smooth sailing in Apple from begin to finish though he had all the attributes of a great professional.

Jupiter in 10th confers an ability to think out of the box for solutions to business problems. These natives are the best placed to revive sick businesses, thanks to their integrity, endurance and generosity.

They often become victims of vicious owners/promoters of businesses. Family life takes a beating!

Jupiter is not very suited to 10h as it is upchaya. Benefics are not able to protect their interests and fight out.

[Dev]

I know of a lady with jupiter in 10th, her lagna is mithuna and rasi is vrichika.
She got into a very good profession and her talents are not that good, may be below average, but she never had problems in getting the job or in sustaining it.She is in the job since more than 15 years.
She is not very meticulous at work, has little ideas and is not very dynamic but is soft and open to learning.

Dear All,

Guru, as a natural benefic, his connection with the 10th house / 10th lord is deemed auspicious.

Guru bestows opportunities, progress & integrity.

Guru influencing the 10th lord, the native is likely to be learned, will earn respect, interested in astrology, saintly in disposition.

Best Regards..

Very true , the aspect on 10h or 10 l is good.

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Mars in 10th is better for professional life. Rather than Jupiter. Mars is digbala here.

And of course Sun too but I am trying to explain a point.

Jupiter represents truth rather than integrity per se. The fact is that integrity means the person is doing what he believes is right regardless of what the law is. Integrity is ruled by the 4th house. 4th rules clan and hence even the members of a mafia team if they do what they think is right, they are behaving with integrity but for the wrong reasons. That is why we say Jupiter regulates Mars which gives integrity for the right reason.

In professional life, it is imperative that you always do what you think is right. That is how you climb the professional ladder and YOU STAY PUT unlike Jupiter. If Mars is a Yogakaraka, much good would result. If Mars is a functional malefic, then it can create havoc because Mars would just go on its own way - which is integrity for the wrong reason. Generally the additional requirement is that Mars must be in its own sign, as for the case for all natural malefics, is imperative as well because Mars energy is such forceful and can easily go wrong. So a Cancer Ascendant with Mars in Aires is very good. The OTHER REQUIREMENT is that with Jupiter, the person need not go about alone. He would have social standing as well meaning the society is on his side and hence the route to the top is easier. An aspect by Jupiter on Mars in the 10th is splendid especially the trine (note for the 75% aspect, Jupiter casts the forward sextile or backward square according to Barbara Pijan or BPHS if you read the classic correctly).

Having said that, sometimes a person can also leave the job for the right reason with a good Mars in the 10th like what Dinesh Mathur mentioned about the dasa of a Yogakaraka and the person leaves the job. In this case a good Mars is leaving the job for integrity reasons. Other planets can leave the job for other reasons including Jupiter who does not like the associating with the bad because Jupiter always hold the truth close to his heart.

Having said the above, if you recall Nina, myself and one famous Indian Astrologer (I forgot his name) subscribe to the fact that the 1st house has more say in a person's professional life. After all 1st house rules our innate disposition ie. what we like and we will only go for jobs that we like.

Now guess what? Jupiter is digbala here. 1st house represent your WIDER attitude towards your professional job if you go by what Shrinkanth has said above about the 10th house in the Rasi Chart. So it means that Jupiter has much say in our overall wide perception of our job and if this does not gell with our ideals including matters of truth, then we will also leave the job.

The trick is that Mars is natural ruler here. So all these Jupiter's perceptions are fed into Mars who then changes his perception on integirty matters and then he further goes into action in the 10th where he is the karaka (and digbala).

One thing I read and which I agree and beg to differ from Nina, is that for D-10 the 10th house would be more important than the Lagna.

If you know about divisional charts, the Lagna is considered very powerful, even more so than the primary karya house. But the D-10 is different as singled out by that article.

The 10th house of D-10 is not only the primary karya house. It is 10th to the Lagna of D-10 so the latter reports to the 10th giving the 10th house of Dasamsa highly important in terms of delineation weightage.

That just goes to show in Vedic Astrology, there is no hard and fast rules.

Just an addendum to further clarify what Dinesh Mathur said.

He is mentioning during the dasa of a Yogakaraka WHO IS THE 10TH LORD, the person may also leave his job.

Forgot to put in the phrases in CAPS in my earlier post above.

To sidetrack :

So now we know truth is MORE THAN integrity.

Jupiter's truth is the universal kind of truth because it is the karaka and digbala of ALL the dharmic houses.

The other planet of truth is Venus.

Venus is digbala in the 4th house of integrity and karaka of the 7th of personal interactions. So Venus is closer to the hearth of integrity than Jupiter is but less so than Mars because Mars is the specialised significator for integrity in the 4th and Venus is only just a general digbala (which is like a karaka) of the 4th.

Venus truth is in ferreting out whether each person is telling the truth. That means its job is to find out whether the person is acting out according to what he thinks is the truth ie. is a kind of seeing whether a person has integrity. So Venus I would say is between Jupiter and Mars.

But because Venus are not in the same camp as Jupiter and Mars, the methods he uses are unorthodox in the sense it depends on reading other people's speech and behaviour (Venus is the natural ruler of the 2nd and karaka of the 7th).

But just like Mars, Venus and Jupiter can be afflicted too. So sometimes the laws made by Jupiter are not universal truths ie. truths according to god's decree and Venus can read the reactions of others wrongly too.

So why we do not talk about Venus in the 10th? Actually Venus has a lot to do with career too. But its effects is from D-10 according to classics and in the Rasi Chart it is from the 4th and 7th ie. Venus effects on career matters has more to do with good relationship with the masses in the case of the Rasi Chart. Inevitably if Venus is well placed in Rasi, in D-10 it would show the career related in a good way to the masses in Dasamsa.

Venus in the 10th in the Rasi Chart is weak as Venus does not like to go about work alone. Even the 11th in the Rasi Chart is better for Venus than the 10th although 4th and 7th in the Rasi Chart for career matters for Venus is best.

hello khoo sir ,

what will be the effect of waning moon in 10th house for Libra ascendant?

[Khoo Hock Leong]

By the way even if Venus is placed poorly in the Rasi chart like in the 10th house, a strong Venus in D-10 means that Venus is strong as according to Saptarishis Magazine.

This has another interpretation from the above where Venus is placed well in Rasi Chart.

Here it means relationships in your professional life is of PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE.

We now come to a very interesting corollary.

From past post, it was mentioned that from the classics, we know that people with Sun conjunction Venus are into jobs involving security, law enforcement etc.

If you look at Shilpa's post on the combustion of the planet by the Sun under the Special Rules section, it was mentioned that the planet's :

(1) Rulership of the Moolatrokina Sign would be affected.
(2) The planet's karakatwa would be affected.

IMPLICATION
----------------

(1) implies Venus sense of diplomacy and personal interaction would be absent.
(2) implies Venus emotional rapport, camaraderie, love etc. would be absent.

But what is mentioned just about Venus being an upholder of each individual telling the truth, that function is NOT affected.

So Sun conjunct Venus are rather fierce people and hence the occupations delineated.

I refer to the recent article on Jyotish Ratnakar in Saptarishis Astrology Magazine.

Art of singing, the power of giving impressive lectures and literature from Venus.

The lectures point consonates with Venus as a planet that gets on well with the masses. Also generally people are mesmerised by good singers. As for literature as a kind of genre for reading, it is very wide as the literature can be imbued with all kinds of specific categories like whether is it horror, science fiction, adventure etc. So the catering of the masses is again indicated.
