Atmakaraka

This topic was created in the Chart Interpretation forum by ThatWoman on Wednesday, March 19, 2025 and has 28 replies.
Hi guys. So I just stumbled upon another Tiktok post:

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSMwoWQPc/

He mentioned about the highest degree in your planet and how it can relate to your life path.

Mine is Saturn in the 12th house by 28°

Problem is, what does Saturn usually based on what I know so far is to challenge, discipline, put limit/ boundaries and the 12th house is spiritual realm, far away lands, subconscious..

So I don't get it, does it mean I need to challenge people's spirituality? But then again, my south node is there, isn't it something that I have to leave behind then?

Please any thoughts on this?

What's yours and how can you figure yours out?

I know that Astrology is pseudoscience and it may not be true or shouldn't be taken seriously but hey, it is my hobby and I just like to dive deeper and deeper into this thing and see how it can inspire me EVEN IF it's not true.
Forgot that it is using Vedic astrology. Okay so mine turns out to be Venus and it's in Virgo 29°

Sheezz this Vedic placements are no good. Imagine Sun debilitated in Libra, fckn gemini moon SIGH and Venus in Virgo. Like so dead. Lol

I saw this on Saturn

"Saturn as Atmakaraka: Such people face a lot of challenges in life. They should learn to understand the sorrows of others and help them in such difficult times. They should also try not to become a reason of grief for anyone"

Mine is Mars at the critical degree of 29°

I believe this is about not being too aggressive and learning to be more playful which I’ve done. With Aries rising too I have to be aware of this.

Thank you so much for caring to look at Saturn. But it turns out mine is Venus. I thought it was Saturn coz I forgot that Atmaraka should apply to Vedic.

Is that mars 29° in Vedic?

No problem

Oh Vedic of course….i used western

Will check again

Isn’t Venus meant to be the best placement?
Sun as Atmakaraka

The native learns to overcome his ego problems and should try practicing humility just as Sri Krsna, knowing that He is the incarnation of Vishnu was always humble and very kind. The Sun is the natural king and the deep desire to rule will manifest as leadership in various undertakings.

A desire for music is sure to be there and such natives should learn to play some musical instrument to channelize their energies that could, in the negative, become very destructive. Instrumental music rejuvennates them and depending on the nature of the sign, this can relate to various instruments. Fire signs show string instruments like the sitar, guitar or violin while earth signs show drums and air signs show air instruments like trumpets, flutes.

Ø Caring for father is a sign of good luck and spirituality is their strongest trait.

I read through and saw some more posts about the venus and I do relate to it so much! How amazing how it can be true at times according to my state of being and life conditions.

So basically I should be a love guru or marriage counselor lol, I really can't imagine myself doing that, at least not at this point of time. Lol
Mine is Mercury and I relate to all this

Atmakaraka Mercury

They make efforts to save the environment and eco-system. People with an Atmakaraka Mercury believe in health food.

I’m really into books and have loads in my house. I write, I love studying and children

Such people should respect their spouse and see things from other viewpoints

29 leo sun 5th house.
Based on vedic it's Venus and it's in Scorpio...I can't relate to this description above at all...and I came across the same description first. The more I read, the least I could relate. I also tried checking based on my regular chart where it would be the Sun, cause it's at highest degree in my chart...but I honestly could never relate to vedic astrology, in whatever I tried so far. I mean, this chart is so not me. I completely identify with my birth chart but I can NOT relate to my chart in vedic astrology cause it's so different! My Sun is in 11th instead of 10th, my Jupiter is in Cap instead of Aqua, my Venus is in Scorpio instead of Sag, my Mars is in Libra instead of Scorpio, my Moon is in Pisces instead of Aries and ofc I'm an Aqua rising instead of Pisces - and I absolutely hate this chart while I love my regular chart! No, I can't identify with any of this because it's so not me and I don't accept the concept of atmakaraka cause it simply has no relation to me, based on anything I read.

What the hell is that reading
That reading means that you're supposed to run your dad's company well and not become a snobbish CEO, you must say thanks to your drivers, cleaners, reception desks, all the staff greet them good mornings and smile.

You are also supposed to travel to India to learn how to play Sitar and practice yoga.

That looks nice isn't it?

My husband's atmakaraka is also Mercury but it's only 22 degree. His highest point degree is actually for Uranus 29 degree but I read Uranus, Neptune, Pluto cannot be meant for atmakaraka for some reason.

Whew, this one is relatable in many aspects. I used to paint although not seriously and I love seeing painting yes. I enjoyed going to galleries yess. The only sex I have done is with my boyfriend turn to husband now. But not sure if I have good and clean character but I shouldn't be too harsh on myself. I drink coffee religiously. Not sure about women empowerment thing though.

But above all, the last line that really caught my attention!
