13 key Astrology inputs that you can get to succeed in business and profession


JP Morgan quote on Astrology

One of the best ways to use astrology isn't the big picture stuff, but rather to add finer details to the big picture. It can be a powerful tool to aid you to make nuanced decisions within a domain of life. This is especially true when we talk about work.

In our work life we face a plethora of decisions that range from big-picture stuff like "Is it wise to quit my job and start a business?" or "Should I litigate or settle?" to "What should be my approach to nurturing talent in my company?" or "what communication tone would suit me best?"

While there is no substitute for hard work and careful planning, astrological input can play a tremendous part in taking some finer decisions when there is no clear indicator as to which is the right one. On a recent consultation I helped the founder think through the type of personality that would be most suitable for a middle manager role within the heirarchy. This is done by aligning the tatta that one sees working well with the client. What emerged was that people who have transformed their careers and are great initiative takers would be best suited for the role. This helps prepare a precise brief for the HR to line up the right kind of candidates for the interview. On another consultation we figured out that if the client needed to be seen as a mentor to the company overall instead of a hard taskmaster.

What we are doing here is to see what would fit each individual's needs and abilities so that they can excel professionally. The bestseller section is full of books written by successful professionals who have shared their secrets and are trying to help the readers. They all have different styles. An entrepreneur wants you to "Do epic shit", whicle another wants to tell you the "Art of the deal". So which one is correct? The answer is all of them. There are multiple strategies to succeed in professional life.

The question is "of these hundreds, which is the right approach for me?"

That is where Astrology is most useful. You already are a Doctor/Lawyer/Manager. It is impractical to suggest that you should be an accountant. The Karmic ship has sailed on that one and one must be practical in life. I am the last advisor who will tell a 45 year old doctor to change his profession. But what sort of approach you should have within your domain to excel is something you can work on today without throwing away what you already have. Here are 13 inputs that you should get to do better at your business or profession:

  1. Overall approach to work

  2. How to improve professional image

  3. Job vs business

  4. Operating style - hustle vs smooth flow

  5. Look, feel and location of the office

  6. Type of direct reportees you should hire

  7. Type of bottom of pyramid staff you should hire

  8. Relationship style with key partners

  9. Borrow big or small - where will success most likely come from

  10. What type of mentoring would be suitable

  11. Your role at work

  12. Where will revenue most likely come from

  13. Where should your professional investments be

This list isn't exhaustive, but it covers some key tasks for an established business. Ofcourse if you are in the early stages of your professional life and are still figuring out what education to pursure, go consult an astrologer now. Like any professional consulting setup, keep in mind that it will be beneficial for you if the astrologer has some background in business if you are seeking business input. The Kaalapurusha shows every astrologer the same information, but we all have differentiated ability to bring out the finer details given our life experiences.
