1. Weak or Afflicted Sun and 10th House
The Sun represents authority, leadership, and recognition. If the Sun is debilitated, heavily afflicted by Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu, or placed in inimical signs without strength, it may reduce the native’s ability to hold authoritative or administrative positions.
Similarly, an afflicted 10th house or its lord can bring instability or lack of clarity in career direction, making government service difficult to sustain.
2. Malefic Influence on the 6th House
The 6th house governs service, competition, and challenges. When heavily afflicted by Rahu, Ketu, or Mars without benefic aspects, it can create conflicts, legal issues, or inability to handle bureaucratic pressure. Such natives may struggle in rigid, rule-bound environments.
3. Weak Jupiter or Absence of Dharma Trikona Strength
Jupiter signifies ethics, wisdom, and judgment — essential traits for public servants. A weak or combust Jupiter, or a disconnected link between the 1st, 5th, and 9th houses (the dharma trikona), often leads to moral confusion or wavering principles, which can hinder success in government roles.
4. Strong Rahu–Moon or Rahu–Mercury Influence
Conjunctions or close aspects between Rahu and Moon (Chandra–Rahu Yoga) or Rahu and Mercury can make the mind restless, unstable, and impatient. Such combinations may indicate difficulty following structured paths like government service exams that demand focus, patience, and mental discipline.
5. Absence of Saturn’s Discipline and Endurance
Saturn governs patience, structure, and long-term effort. If Saturn is weak, debilitated, or under malefic influence without benefic support, the native may lack consistency, perseverance, and emotional endurance — all of which are essential for the lengthy preparation process of civil services.

6. Malefic Aspects on Lagna or Lagna Lord
When the ascendant or its lord is afflicted, it can cause confusion about one’s path and poor decision-making under pressure. Natives may shift goals frequently or lose motivation midway, making it hard to succeed in government-oriented careers.
7. Absence of Raja Yogas or Dhana Yogas Involving the 10th House
Government service often requires strong yogas connecting the 10th house (career), 6th house (service), and the 9th or 5th houses (fortune and merit). If such yogas are missing or weak, the native may achieve success in private or independent fields rather than bureaucratic roles.
Not everyone is meant to walk the path of government service. A chart showing strong discipline (Saturn), integrity (Jupiter), authority (Sun), and competitive strength (Mars and 6th house) usually supports this career.
Some people struggle to understand simple things because afflicted mercury force afflicts them to overanalyze, seek validation, or refuse to accept clear boundaries. They keep circling back with repetitive questions, trying to control the conversation rather than truly listen. This pattern often reflects immaturity, entitlement, or a lack of respect for others’ time and clarity.
If these planetary energies are weak or misaligned, the person may find greater fulfillment in creative, independent, or entrepreneurial directions rather than structured administrative roles.
