Please check this introductory article to understand the theme and purpose behind this series - https://www.astrosaxena.com/articles/NewSeries-PlanetsasJaiminiKarakas-IntroductoryArticle
Let’s cover this article under following points -
Venus - Venus represents Beauty, Desire and Love. Venus is the main significator of Marriage. Venus represents Girlfriend or Wife for a Man. Venus is the significator of all relations, may it be Husband-Wife or Mother-Daughter. Venus is Wealth & Conveniences, Vehicles & Luxuries. Venus is also Service and Devotion, which is where Venus is at its highest level.
Amatya Karaka - It is planet with the 2nd highest degree. It is known as Amatya Karaka or support to Soul Significator. Amatya means Minister, who helps the King (Atma Karaka). So, this planet and its position in chart will indicate towards things which will help you in finding your destination or life purpose. So, it is a drive up to destination. Amatya Karaka normally helps us in finding the right life path.
Results of Venus as Amatya Karaka - As I see, following results can be prominent when Venus becomes someone’s Amatya 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 Amatya Karaka, it shows that person can be involved in any of the above activities of finance, creativity, service or devotion etc by which he gets to his destination which is represented by Atma Karaka. Now, there can be confusion as to what is difference between Venus as Atma Karaka and Jupiter as Amatya Karaka if person needs to involve in similar activities anyhow?
It can be understood through this example -
a.Suppose someone has Venus as Atma Karaka and Mercury as Amatya Karaka. Then person would want to serve people through his creativity and financial acumen and his business & communication would become the means to provide services as per Venus.
b.Then suppose someone has Mercury as Atma Karaka and Venus as Amatya Karaka. In this case, person needs to reach a position of business person and his creativity and financial acumen will be the means to become a business person.
c.So, in 1st case, being recognised as creative person can be the purpose and business is means but in 2nd case, being a business person is purpose and creativity is means.
3.It is also a guidance that person can be good at any work of Teaching or Counselling as Venus is also one of the Teacher in mythology.
4.Following a creative path of career is an obvious career choice with Venus as AMK.
5.In this day and age of Social Media, it can also indicate someone who is sharing their creativity through YouTube Videos or Reels or Blogs etc.
6.Another profession which is commonly seen with Venus as AMK is Doctor or Healer as Venus/Shukracharya had the ability to bring a dead person back to life as it represents Vitality.
7.Venus being Amatya Karaka also shows that person may be devoting themselves to their relation/family life to attain their destination in life.
8.Again, 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 AMK.
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 that protection or care will be exhibited. Like, for a Gemini ascendant, if Venus is in 10th house/Pisces then native can be involved in his work in Spiritual, imaginative or creative matters. But for Virgo ascendant person, if Venus is placed in 12th house/Leo then person can be serving more in creative matters or in foreign lands.
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 Amatya 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,
