Some thoughts on Jeevanam of an individual astrologically

All those who study Astrology knows that 10^th House is called as Karma Sthana, Jeevana Sthana, Rajya Sthana etc., Indications of this house are Profession for livelihood, honour, father (9^th house also indicates father). Karma, royalty or authority, place, living in foreign lands (opposite to 4^th house which indicates living in own country) and debts.

The significators (Karaka) of the 10^th house are Jupiter, Sun, Mercury and Saturn. We should think and find out the logic behind allotting the four planets as karakas. Why at all there should be four planets and what is the reason for choosing Ju, Su, Me and Sa?

One logic, I can say is that Ju is the Dhanakarakan. Su is the karakan for authority and power. We can also call him signifying Karma. Me is related with Buddhi  and Money. Saturn is Jeevana Karakan due to hard work.

Lagu Parasari, the famous book of astrology says that the 2^nd lord and 12^th lord will give the results of the houses they sit. This means that these two lords will act as per the house they occupy. If they occupy the 6^th house, for example they give the results of 6^th house.

The second house indicates wealth, sustenance of the first house and 12^th house indicates the losses. As both factors are crucial for the career, we will see it in this angle. For the Chart of kalapurusha, the Jeevanasthana is 10^th house and that of Makara. Its second house is generally ruled by Saturn and its 12^th house is ruled by Jupiter. Now consider the 10^th house as Lagna. If the rulers of second house that is Saturn and 12^th house that is Jupiter are placed in 10^th house they will give the results of 10^th house as per Lagu Parasari.

Coming again, we all know that lagna is the indication of native’s birth. The ending of this birth – Ayus – is indicated in the 8^th house. The 8^th house is also called the house of transformations and sudden changes. Now look at the 8^th bava from 10^th house. It is 5^th house. This 5^th house indicates pre-destiny – Poorva Punniam. In the natural Kalapurusha hosroscope, the 5^th house is Simha which is ruled by Sun. Thus we come to know the logic of bringing Sun as the Karaka for 10^th house. 5^th house is the house of fruits –benefits. 10^th house is karmic house. Sun is the Karma Karaka. What Bagavan Krishna says? Do your Karma and do not expect results.

The Kalapurusha’s 3^rd house is owned by Mercury. The 8^th house from this is 10^th house. That means the transformation of 3^rd house is 10^th house. Thus Mercury becomes the Karaka for 10^th house.

When the Saturn becomes Karaka of the 10^th house, the native becomes highly ambitious, wants to grow in life, wants to make a lot of gains and believes in him. This is because the Saturn is the ruler of the 11^th house and is the ruler of second from 10^th, dhanasthana of 10^th and the place of its sustenance.

When we consider Jupiter as the karaka, it makes the native to have his jeevanam due to his own past karma. Ju is the ruler of 12^th house to 10^th house. The income, status etc are due to his own karma, his following up of Dharma in the past birth etc.

When Mercury becomes the Karaka, it makes the native to invite his jeevanam due to the karma or efforts of his present birth. It is the ruler of 6^th and 9^th houses from the 10^th house.

When Sun becomes  the karaka, the native lives based on the Past karma Continuity that is called Sanjitha Karma. Past sins will make him suffer. Past good activities makes him live a happy life. Sun rules the 8^th house from the 10^th house.

We should note that all karakas are under the influence of 2^nd, 6^th, 8^th and 12^th houses.

The first house is always internal self. The 5^th house is always the past destiny. The 7^th house is always external life or external self. The 9^th house is always future destiny. All these houses have some intrinsic connections to the jeevanam of a native.
