ATMAKARAKA (THE SOUL PLANET) (PART-2)
Hi, I am going to tell you about Placement of Atmakaraka planet in the birth chart.
“A planet with highest degree in the horoscope is known as atmakarka planet. Which represents self.”
Now, if the Atmakaraka is found in the following houses the following is indicated, possible, or the potential is there
1st House
Nobility, high attainments. The Lagna is a most auspicious house, the home of satyapitha. The Sun ( Surya) is the karaka of the 1st house, and is a most auspicious Atmakaraka too. One with a Sun atmakaraka, the material world may be a challenge as one is pointed to the true purpose of ones incarnation, Self Realization, pending other conditions in the rasi chart.
2nd house
Renunciation, spiritual pursuits are paramount. Lets say Saturn is there; is the karkaka of the 12th (moksha) house and indicates the path of the sadhu, sanyas, or great charity. With the influence of Venus and Ketu , one would be in yogic practices, or tapasya will be taken up.
3rd house
one may have many high social contacts ( government, business, etc). This position of the Atmakaraka has the potential of producing success, wealth and popularity.
4th house
This house works with the 10th from the AK’s position, or the Lagna, and suggests the native’s work/career/actions as an essential contribution to ones dharma in this life. That is, performance actions that support his/her dharma for this incarnation.
5th house
indicates a very truthful person, and follows ones dharma judiciously. This also produces the potential/possibility for sadhana, to meet and serve spiritualists/sadhus/gurus. Pending the strength of the Sun ( that natural karaka of the atman), blessings from guru, God, father and great people of the earth is possible.
6th house
challenges exist for the native from past actions. One may feel the constant pinch from Sani and not know why. That is, grief, minimum fruit from their actions, etc.
7th house
one will enjoy a good spousal relationship, as the 7th is owns relationships. This produces a compassionate individual with good intent.
8th house
results are similar to the 6th house position. The native may confront issues which are hard to solve or that are not easily traced back to the source point, due to coming from past actions one may not remember. It will be key to keep a truthful behavior during this life.
9th house
all blessings can exist for the native with the Atma in the 9th – house of bhagya (fortune). Yet this fortune is one of spiritual pursuits. If the sun influences the AK here, a raj-yoga is produced. If Brihaspiti (Jupiter) is strong in its influence, the potential of producing a guru is possible. What is interesting, the fortunes discussed, the native is not much for material possessions as an attachment. He/she is not compelled to collect and amass items, as there is little charm or hold on him/her.
10th house
happiness from home, family has been earned. Assets of property accrue. The strength and delivery of this promise or potential is indicated by Chandra ( karaka for mother, home, etc).
11th house
the house of courage and capability. The natives potential for intelligence, firmness (resolved to accomplish the task at hand), and problem solving is indicated. If Mars ( courage karaka) is strong, a raj-yoga is indicated , and adds more weight to the native’s qualities of this AK position.
12th house
The native is blessed by Lakshmi-devi (or punya, merit for fortunes). If others influence this position ( Brihaspiti, Sukra and/or Buddha), the blessings of Sri Saraswati, then knowledge is bestowed upon the native.
