Atmakaraka

 

 

 Atma is the soul and karaka is the signification, meaning that the

Atmakaraka is the soul signification. The highest degree of a Planet in the birth chart is the Atmakaraka and identifies much about the

individual’s soul purpose in this life. The Planets main function in sign and house reveals the necessities to bring those planetary seeds and fertile grounds into the infrastructure and fruits, of what truly is needed to happen in the individual person.

For example; take Mercury and its energies of communication and correspondence into 29 degree Capricorn in the third house, which makes it very obvious that this person has to overcome the slow

process of what to write and create a faculty of some sort, to make a living, much later out of that.

If Venus has the highest degree in the chart in the same position, it will declare that the impact of creativity through art or music is not anymore just a reflection of the artist mood and adoration, but the

necessity creating a sound faculty of therapeutic or healing abilities.
