. Effects of 10th House

1. I now explain the effects of 10th House. Listen to these, o Maitreya, in the words of Brahma, Garga and others.
2. Paternal Happiness. If 10ths Lord is strong and in exaltation, or in its own Rāśi/Navāmśa, the native will derive extreme paternal happiness, will enjoy fame and will perform good deeds. 3. If 10ths Lord is devoid of strength, the native will face obstructions in his work. If Rahu is in an angle, or in a trine, he will perform religious sacrifices, like Jyotishyatoma.
4. If 10ths Lord is with a benefic, or be in an auspicious House, one will always gain through royal patronage and in business. In a contrary situation, only opposite results will come to pass.
5. Should 10th and 11th House be both occupied by malefics, the native will indulge only in bad deeds and will defile his own men.
6. If the Lord of 10th House is relegated to 8th House along with Rahu, the native will hate others; be a great fool and will do bad deeds.
7. If Saturn, Mars and 10ths Lord are in 7th, as 7ths Lord is with a malefic, the native will be fond of carnal pleasures and of filling his belly.
8-10 Should 10ths Lord be in exaltation and be in the company of Jupiter, as 9ths Lord is in 10th the native will be endowed with honour, wealth and valor. One will lead a happy life, if 11ths Lord is in 10th and 10ths Lord is in Lagna, or, if the Lord of 10th House is conjunct with the Lord of 11th House in an angle. Should 10ths Lord in strength be in Pisces along Jupiter, the native will doubtless obtain robes, ornaments and happiness.
11. Should Rahu, Sun, Saturn and Mars be in 11th House, the native will incur cessation of his duties.
12. One will be learned and wealthy, if Jupiter is in Pisces along with Venus, while Lagnas Lord is strong and Moon is in exaltation.
13. Should 10ths Lord be in 11th, while 11ths Lord is in 1st House and Venus is in 10th, the native will be endowed with precious stones.
14. If the 10ths Lord is exalted in an angle, or a trine and is conjunct with Jupiter, or receives a Aspect from Jupiter, one will be endowed with deeds.
15. Should 10ths Lord be in Lagna along with Lagnas Lord, as Moon is in an angle, or in a trine, the native will be interested in good deeds.
16. If Saturn is in 10th House along with a debilitated Planet, while 10th House in the Navāmśa Kundali is occupied by a malefic, the native will be bereft of acts.
17. One will indulge in bad acts, if 10ths Lord is in 8th House, while 8ths Lord is in 10th House with a malefic.
18. Obstructions to the natives acts will crop up, if 10ths Lord is in fall, as both 10th House and the 10th from 10th House have malefic occupations.
19-21. Combinations for Fame. One will be endowed with fame, if Moon is in 10th House, while 10ths Lord is in a trine from 10th House and Lagnas Lord is in Lagnas angle. Similar effects will come to pass, if 11ths Lord is in 10th House, while 10ths Lord is strong and gives a Aspect to Jupiter. Fame will come to the native, if 10ths Lord is in 9th House, as Lagnas Lord is in 10th House and Moon is in 5th House.
22. O excellent of the Brahmins, thus have been told about the effects of 10th House in a brief manner. Other related effects be guessed by you based on the relationship of the Lords of Lagna and of 10th House.
