Which business suits you? What your Kundli says about the right line of work

Many people have the money and the courage to start a business but are unsure of the line. Astrology cannot choose your product, but it shows the kind of work your chart supports. Look at the 10th house, its lord, and the strongest planet in the chart.

Business by planet

• Sun: government contracts, medicine, gold, leadership roles and anything with authority.
• Moon: food, dairy, hospitality, travel, water, retail and work with the public.
• Mars: real estate, construction, engineering, sports, security and machinery.
• Mercury: trading, accounts, IT, consulting, media, writing and anything built on communication.
• Jupiter: teaching, finance, law, banking and advice.
• Venus: beauty, fashion, hospitality, entertainment, vehicles and luxury goods.
• Saturn: manufacturing, mining, oil, labour-heavy work, property and long-term service.
• Rahu: technology, online business, import and export, anything with foreign links.
• Ketu: research, spiritual work, healing and software that works behind the scenes.

Other houses to read

The 7th house shows how you do with partners and customers. The 3rd shows self effort and sales. The 11th shows profit, and the 2nd shows how well you hold on to money. Business owners often have a strong 10th, 11th or 3rd.

Business or job

A chart with a strong 7th and 3rd and a weak 6th (the house of service) leans toward business. A strong 6th and 10th with a calm Saturn leans toward a stable job. Many people do both, starting a business on the side while employed.

Use your chart to choose the field, but test the idea with real customers before you spend your savings. A good chart does not fix a bad market.
