Greetings everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well. I will be 30-year-old (this year) and I am having genuine difficulty with starting my career.
Ever since my childhood, I had a passion for space-based telescopes and looking out in the stars. This dream motivated me to pursue higher studies and so in August 2019, I went abroad to pursue M.S. in applied mathematics to Netherlands from a top university.
This turned out to be a rude awakening. Almost instantly I started struggling financially, mentally (COVID, racism) and emotionally (failing exams, delays, constant fighting with parents). A lot of the things were new to me as well (different and fast education system) and it took me a long time to adapt to this. I did get mediocre/good results but only after lots of efforts and struggles.
I finally finished my Masters in May 2024 with a grade of 8 (delayed by 3 years but good grade). My supervisor was happy with my performance.
After finishing my Masters, I started looking for jobs (analytical) and PhD positions, but again from the past 6 months I am continuously facing rejection from companies. Demotivated by rejections, I enrolled for online courses in order to upskill myself. I ranked 1 in their exams. Yet, no improvement on the job front and still getting job rejections. I am currently working part time (no money) under a professor as a research assistant on his project.
I am genuinely bothered and emotional and I am starting to see my breaking point. I am putting 200% (continuously working day and night) and getting 0% return for anything. I have seen people (in my professional circle) stabilize their life for half the effort. I am also turning 30 and have no source of income. I don't know when things will improve for me or if it will improve.
To top everything off, I have Saturn Return + Moon Mahadasha/Saturn Antardasha + Sade Sati starting in May 2025(all at once). Don't know how to handle this as well.
So, I wanted to get some prediction for 2025 related to career. I have attached my birth details below. Any prediction/advice will be genuinely appreciated.
Date of Birth: 23/06/1995
Time of Birth: 07:45 AM
Place of Birth: Patna, Bihar, India.

Certain aspects of your chart are unclear, making it difficult to verify. Could you explain the reason for the three-year delay before providing further comments? The Moon, as the Lagna Lord, in exchange with the 11th Lord Venus under the Nakshatra exchange may indicate distractions and difficulty focusing. However, the exchange between Saturn (as the 8th Lord) and Jupiter as 9th Lord , with Saturn also acting as the 8th Lord[Research] , strongly favors opportunities for pursuing a PhD, especially with the Dasha period[ Moon -Jupiter-Moon] currently active.
Thank you for the response.
The main causes of delay were lots of ups and down that were happening in my life and the fast study pace (2.5 month-based quarter system). I had a background in Electrical and Electronics Engineering for my B.Tech, but the switch to Applied Mathematics was a very steep curve. However, the major delay was due to incompatible supervisor during my final project (started from September 2021). In my final project, I was isolated all the time. I did not meet my supervisor for 2-3 months and then only met for like 1 hour which was not sufficient. Also, COVID impacted me as I was not able to build a stable study circle(lockdown). As a result, I was also not able to discuss my problems with anyone.
While my supervisor looked interested in this project, he was not interested in helping me (only cared about results). Everything was needed to be done by me. As a result, it was very draining and caused a lot of delay.
On the domestic side, I was living in a housing where people had a dislike towards Indians. This also kept me on a backfoot. It was only after January 2023, I met a group of really good friends and finally managed to enjoy my university life.
After all this, I finally managed to complete everything by May 2024.
The current professor I am working under is really good (started working in November 2024). We almost talk on a daily basis, and he constantly motivates me to push forward. He even hosted me for dinner and was very cordial. The only problem is that he is going to retire from next year, so chances of me doing a PhD. under him is not possible. This is a source of conflict for me. I don't know if I should commit 100% towards the project or should I look for an actual job (which is also not going well at the moment). I plan to decide on this in the upcoming weeks.
From an astrological point of view, I felt like when Saturn was in Capricorn was very upsetting phase for me. Even when Saturn went retro in Aquarius, the old problems started to pop up (rejections/delays etc).
I hope this answers your question. Do let me know for further clarifications

Hi,
You are currently in the midst of Lagna Lord Moon/Chandra Maha-Dasha. He is placed in the 10th house of Krama-Sthana and posited in the Lunar Constellation of Bharani Nakshatra, ruled by Badha-Karaka Venus/Shukra. They are in Sukshma Parivarthana. Incidentally, 4th & 10th lord Mars/Kuja is Yoga-Karaka. He is posited in the Lunar Constellation of Purva-Phalguni Nakshatra, which is also ruled by Badha-Karaka Venus/Shukra. So, his influence cannot be denied.
On the sidelines, Ketu is also placed in the 10th house of Karma-Sthana. He has below par Vimsopaka Bala in Dasha Varga and seems to be at his mischievous best.
Antar-Dasha lord Jupiter/Guru-dev rules the 6th house of Service. He is in Sukshma Parivarthana at Nakshatra level with Saturn/Shani-dev (who also has below par Vimsopaka Bala in Dasha Varga) and is not beneficially inclined.
Apart from these, from time to time the 12th house is getting activated. A quick look at D-10 or Dasamsa also shows Ketu and Mercury being placed in Vyayamsa...while Mars/Kuja is placed in Randramsa.
Given the situation, it would make sense for you to consider seeking help/guidance from experienced and knowledgeable experts for suitable Vedic/Dharmic remedies.
Sincerely...

Thank you for this detailed response.
This is a very detailed response, and it indeed does go into the minute details of the chart. If possible, it would really help if somethings can be answered:
(i) I have a career fair happening from 17th February to 12th May in Netherlands. The fair is distributed across a span of 4 months with one-week events happening every month. Since this will be my last shot for job search while in Netherlands, I wanted to ask will things improve in 2025?
(ii) I am not able to find a job and that's one thing. But I do have skills to offer. Does Ketu in 10th indicate going solo or freelancing?
(iii) I think there are two ways to approach things. One approach is to maximize the impact of best-case scenario and second is to minimize the impact of worst-case scenario. Assuming the first approach, which industry/sector can be considered good for me? Will research/ PhD. work for me in the long run? I am also open to new ideas/possibilities.
Your advice will be really appreciated.

Hi,
Current Antara of Jupiter/Guru-dev lasts until mid-May 2025. Thereafter, you'll start Saturn/Shani-dev return and Sade-Sathi or Saturn/Shani-dev's transit across natal placement of Moon/Chandra. Hence, my earlier suggestion.

If you have the right knowledge, EXACT predictions can be made. Astrology is an incredible tool for guidance, and one should take note of the energies of changing dasha lords.

Hi Sujit,
Sure! My father is head of a power plant and currently stays away from home. Mom is a gynecologist/general physician and works independently (self-practice). I have one elder sister who lives abroad. She is in research and currently works both in a startup and university (as a postdoc).

You're in Moon maha dasha and Jupiter antar dasha. Current time is better from past months so there is hope for developments on job. There are indications for Job, travel and relocation in coming months. Good luck and send me feedback.

Hi,
I needed some suggestions. My mother's side has a family astrologer who recently consulted my chart related to career. He suggested me to wear the stone of ruby (associated with sun). His point of view was that there is lack of self-confidence (which I agree to some extent) and that will aid me. But from my amateur knowledge, I know that my sun is in 12th house, and I feel like things can go wrong.
I am doubtful, but I do respect the advice that was given to me, and I will follow through with it. I wanted to ask that are there any potential signs that can be observed (related to wearing a gemstone) in case things go wrong?
Any advice is really appreciated.

Sincerely,
For Cancer Lagna, the Sun is the 2nd Lord, which makes it a Maraka planet. Therefore, it is not advisable to wear a gemstone for the Sun. A more effective remedy to strengthen the Sun is to align with its energies: wake up early in the morning before sunrise and go to bed early to ensure proper rest.
You should be careful with advice from net forums as you can get different opinion leaving you confused and difficult to choose.gsinha wrote: 13 Feb 2025 Hi,

In my view you can wear Ruby but not required.
Instead, you should do peace making remedies for Ketu.
