By
Changes in a career are seen from the 5H [the 12H from the 6H (service) and 8H from
the 10H (profession)] and the 9H (12H from 10H and also a house of Bhagya).
Compulsory changes
When the time factor (Dasha/ Progressions) is activating the 10H, 6H/ 7H with the
9H or the 5H. Or when the 9H/ 5H is activated with the 3H, 8H or 12H then we can
predict a non desired change or a break in career during the time in which the above
combinations of planets are activated.
When the time factor (Dasha/ Progressions) is activating the 10H, 6H/ 7H with the
9H or 5H. Or when the 9H/ 5H is activated with the 3H, 8H, 12H or 2H then the
native will remain continuously on an undesired career in a compulsory situation.
Transits

Before Mars dasha Moon dasha was on, and Moon is a strong significator of 10H
house with Sun, as discussed above, so he joined family business after his studies. But
as Mars indicates 5H, 9H and 6H he left the family business and joined service.

of change in a career either for positive or negative side.

the 10H or 9H house as follow.
From Cancer sign it aspects 10H sign Aries, which is rising on 10H house. Also, Saturn
aspects Moon which is placed in the 10H (Ascendant Lord) and Sun (Lord of 2H and

plus Jupiter indicates that the native will try to earn money through more than one
way. 10H sub lord is Saturn (Lord of 5H and 6H) conjunct Moon (11H Lord). It

Dasha Period
During Mercury/Venus dasha he started his career (1981) as described above. In 1998
and in 2006 I have warned him that due to health issues (particularly Eyes problem)
he may not be able to continue performing their activities at work, that around 2010/
2011 he may have to leave his job. The native left the job in May 2011 due to eye sight
problem, he cannot see fully as a normal person and both the eyes are afflicted. 2001
onward native is passing through Venus dasha, who is in 12H as lord of 6H and 11H; it
is in Ketus star, which is in 3H in intercepted sign conjunct with Moon (lord of 8H).
Venus is in conjunction with Sun (lord of 9H) and Saturn (lord of 2H and 3H). Dasha
lords are in Saturns sub as previously discussed.
Dasha lord is signifying 6H, 8H, 9H and 12H along with 11H, 2H and 3H. Eyesight is
indicated by Sun, Moon and Venus. They are all are afflicted by Saturn. Venus and
Sun are in conjunction with Saturn in 12H house (defect).
Moon is in Saturns star and square with Sun and Saturn (both are in 12H) thus all the
karakas of eyesight are afflicted in the birth chart. Not only that, but sub lord of 2H
(Sun) and 12H sub lord (Rahu) are also connected with Saturn who is in 12H.
Native was passing through Jupiter sub period in Venus Maha dasha (Venus/
Jupiter), when he left the job because of health issues (eyes problem). Jupiter is the
Ascendant lord on the cusp of 11H in its own star, and placed in the sub of Venus. Sub
period ruler (Jupiter) is in aspect with Mars (lord of 4H, 5H and 12H).
I
n Vedic astrology its said that, certain sub periods are not giving good results in
certain dashas. Those are as under:
Transit
D
uring 2011 Saturn was transiting through Virgo sign, which is intercepted
sign of 9H in the chart. He started his career over the same transit influence,
when Saturn was in Virgo sign in 9H.
Lets review the basic principles for changes in career. Dasha and sub period ruler
connected to 5H or 9H combined with a supportive transit of Saturn through his
influence over 9H or 10H will definitely bring changes in a career for better, or
compulsion to accept the situation, depending on the charts strength.
