10th House holds great importance not because it’s the most prominent and strong Kendra house but because it holds the Key of the Karma we are going to perform in this Lifetime. When you judge a horoscope from the profession point of view you judge 10th house and its Lord’s placement and what connection it is making in the Chart.

Today I want to discuss a very interesting placement of 10th Lord placed in the 5th House. 5th House is known for the Artistic Talents, Children, Romantic Affairs, Speculative Business, Past Life Karmas, Acting Talents or Performing Arts, Mantra Shakti and many more things. Now when 10th Lord placed in the 5th house it goes 8th position from its house position (As per Bhavat Bhavam 5th house is 8th from the 10th house) and this is generally not a good position and shows person may have very transformative career span or have troubles in the Job or performing his Duties.

If we see Jyotish Scriptures like In Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, this placement is explained in Chapter 23, Shloka 37:

“Dashamesh pancham sthane, suta-sampanna yashobhagyavan,

pujitah purushair madhurashay, putri nirdoshakah sukhi.”

Sarvartha Chintamani Chapter 7, Verse 13:

“Panchame dashameshasya sthitau putra-labdhir bhavati,

kaaryeshu mantrajnana vibhushito bhavati.”

Phala Deepika Chapter 11, Shloka 9:

“Panchame dashameshasya sukhitah putra labdhikrut,

yashashcha mantravit prajnya dhairyyavan sthira buddhiman.”

Like above mentioned All three classics — BPHS, Sarvartha Chintamani, and Phaladeepika — agree that this placement of the 10th lord is favourable for achieving professional success, fame, happiness through children, and overall good fortune in creative or speculative fields.

But if you carefully analysed or read between the lines, this placement 10th Lord in 5th House indicates that person will do well in the role that requires Leadership Roles, Independent and Decision-Making Roles. And most of the people who do their OWN Work or People who pursue their Creative Talents as their profession. Such people are often seen to thrive in entrepreneurial, creative, or speculative fields, where they have the freedom to act on their own judgment.

Let’s understand from this Example Chart: -

This chart has the same combination and when She came for the consultation, It was visible that she was from Real Estate Background Professionally which is Confirmed and told she is an Architect and works Independently.

Sometime due to deliberately complicating things we forgot to analyse the chart from a very basic point of view. Everything is written in the Books which today’s generation don’t give much attention to. My suggestion to my Students and Followers is always that pls read basics because to give mind blowing predictions you actually have to be very well versed with the Basics of Jyotish.
