Dashamsha Varga Chakra which is also commonly known as Dashamsha Kundali is one of the most important divisional charts among the ‘ Shodasvarga ‘ or sixteen divisional charts as proposed by Maharishi Parashar. It is an extension of the 10th house of the birth chart and is used to see the career aspect of the native.

Dashamsha means one-tenth division of the Rashi chart and each division comprises of 3 degrees. The details as to how we calculate and arrive at the Dashamsha Kundali is elaborated in Brihat Parashar Hora Shastra. Also, with modern days software once can easily obtain the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) on the click of a mouse. Therefore, this article will strictly focus on how can you go ahead and read the Dashamsha Chart.

The following are the method as to how to interpret a Dashamsha Varga Chakra,

(a) The 2nd, 6th and 10th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra is known as the ‘Artha Trikon’ i.e. the houses associated with wealth. Therefore, planets placed/aspecting/Lord of these houses influences the wealth for the native.

(b) The 10th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra is associated with the career of the native. Also the 10th pada or 10th position from the 10th house i.e. 7th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra determines the career track of the native. Therefor planets placed/aspecting/the lord of the 10th house and the 7th house influences the career of the native.

The The following table enlists the planets in the 7th house in the D-10 Chart and their effect on the native’s career,

© Rahu placed in house number 1 of Dashamsha Varga Chakra indicates fluctuations in career.

(d) The 6th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) is associated with service/job while the 7th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) is associated with business/entrepreneurship. Benefics placed/aspecting the 6th house gives a good career in job/service life. Similarly malefics placed/aspecting 7th house in the Dashamsha Varga Chakra does not give circumstances for a smooth/conducive career in entrepreneurship.

(e) The conjuction of Sun and Saturn in the 6th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) gives problems associated with supervisors in service career.

(f) If Vargesh of Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) i.e. the Lord of 1st house is placed in 9th house of the Dashamsha Varga Chakra then the native would always prefer to be in own boss and therefore entrepreneurship is strongly recommended in this case.

(g) Also,the 10th house from the Arudha Lagna in the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart) shows how one’s career is perceived in the society i.e. the status of ones career.

(h) One should also see the position of the 10th lord of Lagna Chart (D-1 Chart) in the Dashamsha Varga Chakra (D-10 Chart). If the 10th Lord of D-1 Chart is placed in Kendra houses (1,4,7,10) or the Trikon Houses (1,5,9) then this indicates that the native will have a good career.

(i) Also, if the 10th Lord of D-1 Chart is exalted in the D-10 Chart then the native will have a strong career path. Moreover, the 10th Lord of D-1 Chart should be free of any sort of affliction both in the D-1 Chart as well as the D-10 Chart. Also, the exaltation of the 10th Lord of D-10 Chart too indicates a strong career track for the native.

(j) Planets placed in the Kendra houses (1,4,7,10) and the Trikon Houses (1,5,9) gives an acceleration in career during their Antardasha/Mahadasha.

(j) Moreover, an Astrologer should not solely restrict the analysis of the career solely to the D-1 Chart and the D-10 Chart. The Navamsha Varga Chakra (D-9 Chart) should also be used thoroughly as it is the supplementary chart to the Birth Chart. The 1st, 5th and 9th houses of the D-9 Chart indicate the talent that the native has. The position of the 10th Lord, Lagna of the D-1 Chart should be thoroughly analysed in the Navamsha Varga Chakra (D-9 Chart).

I will illustrate the use of Dashamsha Varga Chakra with a practical Case Study. The following horoscope is of one of my acquaintances who is 30 years old (as of 2019).

The Lord of 10th house in D-1 Chart is Mars and Mars is placed in the 10th house in D-10 Chart. Mercury is the Vargesh of D-10 Chart and also the Lord of 10th House in the D-10 Chart. Mercury also aspects Mars who is the Lord 10th House in D-1 Chart. Moreover, Saturn is the Lord of 6th House in D-10 Chart and aspects the 6th house in D-10 Chart.

Since Mercury represents Finance, the native is working as a Manager in a reputed MNC bank as a banker. Also, Mercury being the Vargesh in D-10 Chart is exalted in the D-10 Chart which further strengthens the opportunities for the native to enter into the field of Finance. Also, Saturn represents service and being the 6th Lord and aspecting the 6th house (the house of Job/service), the native is associated with Job/Service.
