Career prediction
The 10th house is the house of career and reputation. Its sign shows the kind of work that suits you, and its lord shows where your career is drawn.
Your birth details
How it is worked out
Astrologers read career from the 10th house, counted from the lagna: the sign on it describes the nature of your work, and the planet that rules that sign, the 10th lord, shows through which area of life your career develops.
The Sun, Saturn, Mercury and Jupiter add detail: authority, persistence, skill and wisdom. The dasha you are running decides when career matters come to the fore.
Read this as the kind of work you are suited to, not a single job title. Many fields can express the same placement.
