What is Amatyakaraka ?
The planet that decides the Career and close accomplices. It is the planet in your birth chart which attains the second highest degree in your birth chart or the graha obtaining the second highest longitude is called Amatyakaraka. It signifies the mind. Its role is that of a Minister who guides the king. It is the Amatyakaraka who guides the destiny of the person towards attainment of the desires of the atma. Being the protector of the soul, the palanadevata (the deity who sustains oneself in this world) is seen from the 6th from the Amatyakaraka in the Navamsa.

What is the Significance of Amatyakaraka ?
The Amatyakarka planet is often associated with the
profession. Apart from this, the Amatyakarka planet is also associated
with wealth and education. If the Atmakaraka is afflicted, then the
person might face troubles related to all these three fields. If the
Atmakaraka is strong, then the person will face less difficulties in
life and will grow consistently.
The Amatyakarka is the Karaka planet of second house,
fifth house, ninth house and tenth house. We can analyse family from
second house, education and wealth from fifth house, fortune from ninth
house and profession from tenth house. Journeys to a foreign country
can also be analysed by the ninth house. The tenth house is also used to analyse authority and sovereignty.
All these fields can be analysed by the position of
Amatyakaraka in the Kundali. The auspicious results are obtained when
the Amatyakaraka is strong. The auspicious results are reduced in
number when it is weak.
What is the generic effect of Amatyakaraka ?
The amatyakaraka works quite differently and shows
karma yoga. The Amatyakaraka takes the responsibility of feeding the
Atmakaraka and therefore shows whom the Atma is dependant on in this
birth. The specific form which feeds the atma is the Palana Devata
(sixth from amatyakaraka in navamsa) and is the form of the mother
(moon).
In Jyotish to understand the mother/moon better we
must understand the udu dasas. Specifically the Vimshottari dasa relates
to our sustenance in soceity and community and should be used for
reference.
Here a cycle of dependency needs to be understood
and if we count in order beginning from Krittka nakshatra, in modules of
three, we get the following order of lordships:
1st | 2nd | 3rd |
Sun | Moon | Mars |
Rahu | Jupiter | Saturn |
Mercury | Ketu | Venus |
With this we get three working-classes of society.
The upper class ruled by the politicians (sun), business men (mercury)
and organized crime or unions (rahu).
The middle class ruled by public servants (moon), teachers and instructors (jupiter) and the priests and mystics (Ketu).
The lower class are the blue-collar workers, or
those who have to exert brawns rather than brains (Saturn), the security
force including police and military (Mars) and the entertainment sector
who wish to attract and capture the minds of the public (Venus).
These class-divisions do not speak of the financial standing of those in them.
Now, as a start you can expect to find that the natives amatyakaraka is associated with one of the three grahas indicating the working-class of the native. I.e. in the chart supplied Mars is the amatyakaraka and receives the rasi dristi of both Moon and Ketu which belong to the middle class and academical sector.

Coming to the dependencies we can refine our
understanding of the chart. A politician (Sun) is dependent on the
unions (used to be organized crime - Rahu) to get votes. Therefore to be
a politician one needs Rahu associated with Amatyakaraka - not Sun.
Similarly businessmen (Mercury) depend on the laws made by the
politicians (Sun) and therefore Sun has to be associated with the
Amatyakaraka of a good businessmen. Knowing this you can draw a
triangular dependency diagram.
Sanyasis (Ketu) will have Moon associated with their
Amatyakaraka, public servants (Moon) will have Jupiter associated with
their Amatyakaraka and finally teachers (Jupiter) will have Ketu
associated with their amatyakaraka as per this principle.
In the attached chart of the professor, we did
indeed find Ketu having rasi dristi on the Amatyakaraka promoting the
academical profession.
Raja-sambandha yoga: If the tenth house/lord or the
Atmakaraka associates with the Amatyakaraka then the native will
associate with the topmost people in their field and be succesful in
this.
Authors comment: Check if a graha is associated with both the Amatyakaraka and the Atmakaraka/Tenth house. The profession of that graha as outlined above will surely give success.
