Start with the 10th house
In Vedic astrology, career is read primarily from the 10th house, its lord and the planets aspecting it. Your sign gives the flavour; the 10th house gives the direction.
Career themes by element
As a broad starting point:
- Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): leadership, entrepreneurship, teaching.
- Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): finance, operations, healthcare.
- Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): communication, law, technology.
- Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): care, research, the arts.
Timing a career move
Job changes often line up with Dasha changes or major Jupiter and Saturn transits over the 10th house. An astrologer can help you pick a favourable window.
