The Steel Frame (Bureaucrats) A miniscule number of the English could administer the vast and varied country like India because of the “Steel Frame” of the administrators created by them. ICS was the shiniest part of the Steel frame. ICS, in its post independence aviaar, is the IAS. Despite the severe illnesses like corruption, hankering for and getting political patronage, and an abysmal! moral degradation of the service, it remains the premier goal for educated, middle and lower middle class Indians. it is the service that one can, very proudly belong to. Let us analyze a few horoscopes of these “tall” persons. The principles could be:- {a) The Houses — Lagna, 6th house, and the 10th house are the ones that come into reckoning. It is their strength and the PAC interaction, which decides the “Babu.” The better and closer the interaction the higher is the Babu. In houses the role of 3rd house is also very significant; for easy understanding it injects dedication and sustained hard work to lead our Administrator. to a distinguished career. 3° house is the 6" from Karma-Sthan and the 10th from the “ari-bhava”. In this position the efforts the Parakram, the Vikram, energise this house and empower it to produce results that are miraculous. (b) The Planets — Sun is the king and Jupiter is his advisor. These two are the primary controllers of the high placed executive administrators. Saturn's ingress and its influence take one to masses and also dealings with the general public. The bureaucrats 156Astrology of Professions The Steel Frame (Bureaucrats) {c) (a) who love their own writing and branch off as authors while in service are obviously the current favourites of “Mars- Mercury duet”. The AmK Planet — For the bureaucrats the AmK Planet's strength and placement showcases their work profile. A strong (Exalted, own house, Vargottama are a few obvious sources of strength), planet becoming the AmK and then being placed in kendras, or even 3rd or 11th house from the Lagna takes the person to high profile, rewarding jobs. The planets influencing the AmK planet indicate the inclinations that would emerge as prompted by the Dashas and delivered by the transit. AmK placement in Kendra or 3/11 from the AK in the Navamsha augurs well for a smooth and rewarding career. The dasha — Dasha at the time of career making needs to be of planets that control the houses for their profession.

That's where all the action is. 10th L Sun and 9th L Moon conjunct themselves in Gemini producing a powerful yoga in a ‘Trik’ house.

Frame (Bureaucrats) Astrology of Professions Mars. Mars is in the 9H- that is good. It is in debilitation that is a source of weakness. Now note the longitude. Mars at 25 02’ in Cancer is in Ashlesha-Mercury’s constellation, and Mercury at 27 01" in Taurus is in Mrigshira, the constellation of Mars. This exchange brings the Lagna Lord in a strong bond with the 8th L Mercury. 8th house assumes further importance. Two other issues need to be noted. First note Sun’s total control over Saturn and Venus. Their combustion is deep. In this combustion do not miss the planetary war being waged between Venus and Saturn. Since Sun the 10th L is in control of the other two kendras that is the 4th and the 7th houses owned by Saturn and Venus respectively, a workaholic person whose only happiness is job emerges.
