Which planet in the 10th house has good and bad results?

In Astrology, every house is important, but special significance is given to the tenth house because it is the house of karmas or career. Whatever good or bad deeds we will do in our life can be identified with the tenth house. If the tenth house is under the benefic influence, the native does good karmas, and under malefic influence, the karmas have bad motivations behind them. A strong 10th house under the benefic influence may give you a successful career and vice-versa. At the same time, every planet influences your Karmas as per their karakas if placed in the tenth house. Not just the planet but the sign placed in the tenth house also had a significant impact on our karmas and professional life. The 10th house also signifies the recognition and achievements you may get in your life. It is also important to know where the “lord” of the tenth house is placed or gone in the birth chart. Let’s understand what good and bad results you may expect through the influence of various planets at the tenth house.

What planet is good for the 10th house?

The 10th house is one of the Kendra sthanas in a birth chart and keeps utmost importance in our lives. After all, a successful career gives the native get required amenities. Good lifestyle, status, recognition, financial security, safety, and mental satisfaction. All planets, including benefic and malefic, are considered good in the tenth house, provided they are not under affliction or combust or debilitated. A native with an excellent strong tenth house is a self-disciplined person and takes very good care of the family. The native may sacrifice anything for personal or family respect and dignity. A concept called digbala in Astrology states that planets get extra strength by being placed in a particular direction. The tenth house depicts the East direction, and the planets which get extra strength here are the Sun and Mars.

Similarly, the karakas of the tenth house are the Sun, Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury. If any of these are placed in the tenth house then also the native gets the good results. Here, the question of the idiom “karako bhavnaashay” surfaces and many may ask how a karaka give good results in its Karak bhava. But one more important thing is the lordship of the house. If the karaka owns a good house i.e. Kendra or trikona house, the native derives good results; on the other hand, the rulers of trik bhava even if they are karakas will definitely destroy the bhava. It is important to mention that a fiery natured planet gives fruitful results in the tenth house. Thus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Mercury give very good results in the tenth house. Similarly, the planets in their own, friendly and exalted sign produce beneficial results in career or profession, and the native attains success in all his endeavors.

Which planet is bad in the 10th house?

To ascertain whether a planet will give bad results in the tenth house, we need to check the planet's strength. A weak planet, afflicted, debilitated, or placed in an inimical sign, can’t give good results to its natives. Every planet has certain significance and its lordship matters a lot in deciding the bad results derived through the placement of a particular planet. In a kalpurush kundli, the tenth house is ruled by Saturn and is also called the karmkaraka in astrology. So, whatever planet is placed in the tenth house if karmkaraka Saturn is in bad placement or position, the native doesn’t get full results or recognition for the efforts made. There are also chances of defaming and ill-repute if the planet placed in the tenth house is under major afflictions.

The Moon and Venus are soft planets and they get directional strength in the fourth house which is just opposite to the tenth house. So, if these soft planets are placed in the tenth house, the native gets not-so-good results depending upon both planets' position and lordship. Even though you will notice compassion in their actions but being a tough place, one has to show the fighting spirit here to really succeed in life. Even the planets considered to bring good results in the tenth house as mentioned above give bad results if placed weak and under major afflictions. Saturn in Tenth House may make you highly disciplined and hardworking but at the same time slow in your actions. The Sun may confer fame but at the same time will endow arrogance and pride to the native. So, it depends actually what results we are looking to get from the tenth house. No planet is good or bad, and it depends upon the placement in signs, the lordship of houses and the strength of the planet that brings good or bad results in the life of the native.
