Karmajeeva (profession)
Sloka 1: From Sun, etc., the acquisition of wealth must be predicted thru
father, mother, enemy, friend, brother, woman and servant respectively, when he
occupies the 10th house from birth or Moon, or thru lord of the navamsa occupied
by the lord of the 10th, from birth, Moon or Sun Sloka 2: If the lord of the navamsa is Sun, the person gets wealth thru scents, gold, wool, medicines, etc.
If the amsa lord is Moon, wealth flows thru agriculture, watery products and
dependence upon women, etc. If the lord of the navamsa is Mars, he gets money
thru minerals, fire, weapons, adventures and physical strength. If the lord of
the navamsa is Mercury, money is obtained thru writing, math, poetry and fine
arts Sloka 3: If the lord of the navamsa is Jupiter, he gets money from
Brahmins, priests, Gods, in mines or manufactures, and from charities. If that
lord is Venus, he makes money by gems, silver, cows, buffaloes, etc. If he’s
Saturn, he gets money from labor, by execution, carrying and by low artisanship.
The source of income may be such as that which is controlled by the lord of the
navamsa occupied by the lord of 10th in transit Sloka 4: Planets give wealth
similar to the houses they occupy. If Sun is exalted and powerful, the man gets
wealth by self acquisition. If powerful benefics are in lagna, 2nd or 11th, he
gets money in many ways
