How does the placement of Saturn to Rahu or Ketu affect one’s career?

Before we look into how Saturn, Ketu, and Rahu will impact career – we need to understand each of the planets first

Saturn:

• Planet of Karma and ruler of Zodiac Capricorn (10th House as per Kalpurush Kundali) and co-ruler of Zodiac Aquarius (11th House as per Kalpurush Kundali)
• Believer in rewarding hard work and punishing shortcuts/lethargy
• Can make someone Zero to Hero and keep them there

Rahu:

• Planet of Illusion and co-ruler of Zodiac Gemini (3rd House as per Kalpurush Kundali) and co-ruler of Zodiac Aquarius (11th House as per Kalpurush Kundali)
• Believer in getting work done at any cost (even if unethical)
• Sparks creative thinking and innovation
• Considered shadow of Saturn on the Moon (that represents emotions)

Ketu:

• Planet of salvation/moksha and co-ruler of Zodiac Virgo (6th House as per Kalpurush Kundali) and co-ruler of Zodiac Scorpio (8th House as per Kalpurush Kundali)
• Believer in creating detachments in life
• Looks for ways to be spiritual and understand the meaning of existence
• Considered shadow of Mars on the Moon (that represents emotions)

Now, that we have understood what these three planets are, let us look into what houses determine the career of an individual. Normally, these houses give a direction to the career

• House 2: Wealth Built through Your Efforts
• House 3: House of Communication
• House 6: House of Service
• House 7: House of Partnerships (legal and marital)
• House 10: House of Profession
• House 11: House of Aspirations & Possibility of Working for Government/MNCs

Of the 6 Houses stated above, 4 are controlled directly by Saturn-Rahu-Ketu.

Also, during their – Mahadasha, Antardasha, and Transit, they tend to influence these houses through

1. Triggering Job Change or Job Loss
2. Breakthroughs (leading to promotion)
3. Ability to keep skilling self inline with professional requirements
4. Sudden windfall gains@work

Considering this, it is very important to see their placements, conjunctions (in the birth chart or during transit), and Ongoing Dasha to understand how it might impact your career.

Their outcomes can be amplified (if a Rahu-Saturn Conjunction is forming) or subdued (if a Ketu-Saturn Conjunction).
