Venus is the significator of all relations, may it be Husband-Wife or Mother-Daughter. Venus is Wealth & Conveniences, Vehicles & Luxuries.

For proper understanding, this planet indicates your aim/purpose/destination of life. We are supposed to reach the place which is indicated by Aatma Karaka Planet, its position and house it rules. This will give us an idea of where we need to reach in this life.


Results of Venus as Atma Karaka - As I see, following results can be prominent when Venus becomes someone’s Atma Karaka -


1.Venus is a planet of beauty, luxury, conveniences and service. Venus is everything which we love in our life and we want to have. Venus’s most common representation is Money and Relationship but Venus’s highest representation is Service and Devotion.



2.So, when someone has Venus as Atma Karaka, it shows that person needs to reach the position in life where he can serve people and devote himself to a higher cause. This is the highest representation of Venus; i.e. service and devotion. So, if person follows this path, he can be seen as a Teacher or Healer or someone who is into selfless service of others.


3. Venus as Atma Karaka can make someone very much interested in any work of Finance too. They can be working with Banks, Financial Institutions, Stock Market or in any profession like CA/CS/CWA. Any work of financial nature is Venusian work. So, person can serve others in such a work when Venus is AK.


4. Venus is also Creativity oriented planet. So, Venus as AK can make someone very much interested in pursuing their creative interests as career, whatever it may be.


5. As Venus is also a Teacher in mythology, being Shukracharya, the destination of being a Teacher or a Guru is very clear for the person.


6. As Venus also represents Vitality, Venus being AK can also make someone inclined towards medicine and healing.


7. As Venus is most prominent relationship oriented planet, Venus being AK can also mean that a person can completely devote himself in service of his partner, family and relationship life.


8. So, these are normal professions which are indicated when Venus is AK for someone. But in whichever field of work person goes, he should be willing to devote himself completely in serving people there. Then only we can expect good results of Venus as AK.


9. Now, whichever house Venus rules in your chart through Taurus and Libra signs, those houses would also indicate possible destination in life as to in which areas of life person can be interested. It also shows that who all will be important to the native in finding his life destination.


10. Then in whichever house/sign Venus sits in chart, that shows in which area or direction of life person will be interested. Like, for an Aries ascendant, if Venus is in 10th house/Capricorn then native can be seen as following a very creative career. But for Leo ascendant person, if Venus is placed in 12th house/Cancer then person can be seen as Teacher in Spiritual, Mystical or Psychological matters or working in health care.


11. If any planet is conjunct with Venus then it adds its own flavor of things/representations which can bring authority to person.


Dignity - Dignity of Venus would indicate if the native will attain the purpose of Venus as Atma Karaka early in life or with delays in life. He will attain it easily or with difficulties. If Venus is in good dignity with impacts of benefic planets then it may indicate that person may find his destination easily or in early life itself whereas if Venus is losing dignity or impact of malefic planets are there on Venus then person may find his destination in later life. Venus dignity and strength also indicates the kind of support the native may get from their relationship partner in finding his destination in life.


Final conclusion would depend on overall analysis of chart with lots of other factors along with Venus’s position.


Hope this helps. Thanks,
