2nd house lord sitting in 10th house
2nd house lord sitting in 10th house
Today, 2nd house lord sitting in 10th house.
So first of all, let's see what 2nd house and 10th house represent -
2nd house represents Family, Wealth, Speech, Family Lineage, Values, Mouth, Face, Throat, food you like to eat, Assets etc.
10th house represents things like Government, Father, Authority, Fame etc. Here, Authority should not be understood in literal sense, like someone got a Government job or became a Manager or CEO of a Firm. Here Authority means doing any work with complete perfection and your opinion matters when comes to making any decision related to that work, so even a good Hacker can be a person of authority as he is master of that particular work.
One thing to remember here is that 10th house is one of Upachaya Houses, i.e. House # 3, 6, 10 & 11. Upachaya Houses improve with time. It means any planet in these houses improves in results with age and real good result is seen from a person's 30s. Also, all the malefic planets provide very good results in Upachaya Houses but results may be seen in 30s.
Now, what does it mean to have 2nd house lord sitting in 10th house?
It means the planet which rules/controls/owns the 2nd house of your horoscope is sitting in the 10th house of horoscope.
Now, what is the impact of having 2nd house lord sitting in 10th house?
Its generic interpretation is that person's wealth and resources are coming from the position of Authority, Status and Rank. It means that to gain real wealth in life, they have to be in position of authority in their field. If they are working under others, they may never gain the wealth which they are worthy of. They have to reach a place of authority to gain as per their potential. Now, it is common sense that none can become authority over-night, so this also shows that Wealth is coming from continuous hard work done in the chosen field. It also shows that Govt and Father also become the source of wealth.
Now, results may be different due to aspect, conjunctions of other planets or the planet being Retrograde or Combust. Moreover, now we also need to check the strength of 10th house lord as 2nd house lord is going in 10th house. So again, Overall Chart Reading is important.
So, let's see how different planets will behave differently as 2nd house Lord in 10th house.
Sun - Suppose it is a Cancer Ascendant chart and Sun rules the 2nd house with Leo sign and sits in the 10th house in the sign of Aries, where it is exalted. It shows that wealth is surely coming from an authority position. Either it is your Father or Govt Job or in any position of Authority in the field you choose. Father can be an important figure in Govt or Politics. This position will push person to become an authority after a certain age. Exalted Sun in 10th house means person is destined to reach the position of authority.
Moon - So it is Gemini Ascendant Chart and Moon rules the 2nd house and sits in 10th house in Pisces. It shows a highly spiritual mind. This person is highly imaginative and creative. Through his imagination or creativity, he gets into a position of authority and that provides the resources. His best choice of Career is in any creative field.
Mars - Mars can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Pisces Ascendant - So if it is Pisces Ascendant, Mars rules 2nd & 9th house and sits in 10th house in Sagittarius sign. As Mars represents action and energy, it shows that this persons energy and actions are going into the field of higher learning, philosophy and law. We can see someone in field of Academics and Law from this position. Mars gets directional strength in 10th house, hence it is better from that aspect too.
Libra Ascendant - Now if it is Libra Ascendant, Mars rules 2nd & 7th house and sits in 10th house in Cancer sign. Here things take a different turn as Mars is debilitated. Here also person wants to reach the authority but as Mars is debilitated, he doesn't think about the means, whether he is honest or dishonest. So, these may be people who may try to bribe to get a Govt Job or who may try to cheat a fellow competitor to win a competition. At the same time, it may give a good career in field of Real Estate or Nursing, but the chances of being corrupt remain as is.
Mercury - Mercury also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Taurus Ascendant - If it is Taurus Ascendant, Mercury rules 2nd & 5th houses and sits in 10th house in Aquarius sign. It shows someone whose authority is coming from working in Large Organizations where Communication is becoming huge part of work. This person can also be a businessman but most success is in working with corporate.
Leo Ascendant - If it is Leo Ascendant, then Mercury rules 2nd & 11th house and sits in 10th house in Taurus. This shows someone who is in business related with finance and wealth. We can also see someone who is in finance related jobs and uses his analytical skills in his daily work.
Venus - Venus also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Aries Ascendant - If it is an Aries Ascendant, Venus rules 2nd & 7th house and sits in 10th house in Capricorn sign. These are the people who are in love with authority. These people love to keep cordial relations at their work place, especially with the people in authority, so that they can utilize these relations as and when there is any need. Normally, colleagues are seen as enemies or competitors but these are different people. They even keep good relations in their previous organizations, so that they can go back if there is any such need.
Virgo Ascendant - If it is Virgo Ascendant, Venus rules 2nd & 9th house and sits in 10th house in Gemini. Again, exchange of energy between Mercury and Venus opens the door for finance related work environment. Everything said above about Venus applies here as is.
Jupiter - Jupiter also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs. So, let's take both one after the other.
Scorpio Ascendant - If it is Scorpio Ascendant, Jupiter rules 2nd & 5th house and sits in 10th house in Leo Sign. This shows someone who has a Guru like image in his workplace. They are seen as a man of high wisdom in work arena and people always come to take their advice. As Jupiter is in sign of Leo, a sign of Government, it shows someone working in Govt field in position of authority. As Jupiter itself represents Wealth, it shows lots of gains through Govt.
Aquarius Ascendant - If it is Aquarius Ascendant, Jupiter rules 2nd & 11th house and sits in 10th house in Scorpio. It shows someone who went through transformative circumstances in his career and family through his wisdom. It also shows someone who works in very chaotic and unusual conditions or in working hours.
Saturn - Saturn also can be 2nd house ruler through its two signs.
In either sign (Capricorn/Aquarius) as 2nd house lord, Saturn in 10th house (for Sagittarius/Capricorn Ascendants respectively) shows that person will get success only through hard work and putting extra labor. So, there are some people who get opportunities easily in life but these people get any opportunity only with delays and hard labor. But as always, Saturn only delays, never denies. Relations with Father are distant for various reasons. Real authority in life comes only after reaching mid 30s. They are real workaholics. We can see someone working in business of Iron, Coal field or in Legal field from this.
Rahu - If Rahu is 2nd house Lord through its sign Aquarius, as it co-rules Aquarius along with Saturn, and sits in 10th house in Libra then 1st of all we need to make sure of Saturn's position as it is the main ruler. Rahu in Libra in 10th house shows presence of some foreign element in work life. Relation with father is unusual one. They seek perfection in relations. They may follow a very unique and creative field in Career.
Ketu - Likewise, If Ketu is 2nd house Lord through its sign Scorpio, as it co-rules Scorpio along with Mars, and sits in 10th house in Cancer then 1st of all we need to make sure of Mars' position as it is the main ruler. As Ketu isolates/separates a person from the things related to the house Ketu is sitting, here it actually isolates person from the outside world and concept of rank, status and fame. It isolates (either physically or mentally) from parents. The field where these people can get fame is Spirituality. They should be in Spiritual field of Career, else they will be just blind (as Ketu is headless) in the matters of choosing right job or trusting the right people in work place.
Hope this covers maximum points and is helpful.
