The source of such an acquisition will be the father, mother, a foe, a friend, a brother, a wife or a servant, according as the Sun or any of the other planets taken in order occupies the 10th place from the Lagna or the Moon whichever is strong. His profession will be that prescribed for the lord of the Navamsa occupied by the planet owning the 10th place from the Lagna, from the Moon and from the Sun (severally) whichever is tae strongest. Sloka 2 : If the lord of the 10th house be posited in the Sun's Navamsa, the person born will earn his ,livelihood through fruit-trees, by the repetitions of Mantras, by fraud, by gambling, by uttering. Falsehood, through wool, medicine and the like, by working en metals or

through service under a king of respectable person. Sloka 3 : If the Navamsa occupied by the lord of the 10th house be that of tile Moon, the income of the person concerned will be through trade in water product, (pearls, corals, etc.,) through agriculture and cattle-farming, pilgrimage to holy shrines, service under a damsel or trading in clothes. Sloka 4 : If the Navamsa in question be that of Mars, the sources of income may be through metals, fighting in battles, cooking, lands, gold, inflicting trouble to others, weapons, acts of adventure, association with wicked men, spying or through theft. Sloka 5 : In the case of a person born with the lord of the 10th posited in a Navamsa owned by Mercury, the earning will be through composing poems, the study of sacred scriptures, by being a scribe or through some clerical work, or some trick, through a knowledge of astrology, through the study of the Vedas on other's behalf, by repetition of Mantras,

or by playing the role of a priest or by some pretext. Sloka 6 : If the planet concerned be in a "Navamsa of Jupiter, the person born maintains himself through the help of Brahmins, Gods or through royal favour, by reciting Puranas, by the study of Sastras, by the preaching of morality, by religious instructions or by lending money (profession of usuary). Sloka 7 : The earnings of a person with the lord of the 10th house posited in a Navamsa owned by Venus will be through a woman, cows, buffaloes, elephants, horses, through triple symphony (i.e., dancing in accompaniment to vocal and instrumental music), through silver, scents, milk, ornaments and silken fineries, by virtue of being a companion (Aid de-camp.) to a king, or by his poetic talents. Sloka 8 : The person in whose nativity the lord of the 10th house is sheltered in Saturn’s Navamsa lives by dealing in roots and fruits, by physical exertion. (sweating labour), through servants,

rogues and through the earnings of men of low morality, through bad grains, by carrying burden, by resorting to base avocations, through sculpture, wooden materials and by functioning as an execution or a butcher. Sloka 9 : When the planet owning the Navamsa is strong, there will be acquisition of wealth without by exertion. If it should be weak, very little wealth accrues. The country of acquisition will be that signified by the sign representing the 10th house or the Navamsa occupied by the lord of the 10th house. But if this sign be occupied or aspected by its lord he will earn in his own country. The same will be the result if the Navamsa occupied by the lord of the 10th house be an immoveable Rasi. And if the said sign be occupied or aspected by planets other .than its lord, the native will earn in the place other than his native country.Kiran R <kiran.rama wrote: Dear Sreenadhji,My apologies for the tenor of my earlier mail.Mantreswara is telling us that:1. We have to look at the 10th from the strongest of Moon, Lagna and Sun2. And then see where the navamsa lord of the house where 10L is placedI am looking at an English Translation by GS Kapoor and so I may be wrong.RegardsKiranSreenadh <sreesog > wrote: Dear Kiran ji, Please DON'T mis-interpret texts, and turn things upside down!

Ma11th House :- : Sa-Ve-Ju12th House :- : Ke As per Phadeepika - "Job should be determined based on the planets in 10th from Lagna, Moon or Sun". For you - * there is NO PLANET in 10 from Lagna. * there is NO PLANET in 10 from Moon. * there is Sa-Ju-Gk in 10th from Sun. Thus for sure it is planets such as Sa and Ju in 10th house from Sun determines your job. (Also note that it is Virgo sign

and also that the Sign lord Mercury is aspecting lagna from 7th and is in Vargottama). (Gk is not considered in such things, Sa dasa is yet to come) For you Jupiter dasa is running currently from 1999 to 2015. Thus clearly it is the Jupiter in Virgo, 10th house from Sun, the one which determined your current Job. Know that Mantreswara is right and accurate! Note: Please don't ascribe our ignorance on sages and say that they are wrong. Better say that 'I am unable to fully understand the words of the sages', or that 'I am unable to understand this method can anyone clarify?' or that 'this method does not seems to apply everywhere, is there any corollaries or amendments to be considered?' or something like that. :=) Love and regards,Sreenadh , Kiran R <kiran.rama wrote:>> Dear All,> > Per phaladeepika following is
