Negotiating a job offer? Astrology can tilt the odds

Astrology is a power tool in job offer negotiations

Most people think of negotiations in terms of salary, title, or ESOPs. But the real difference between an average outcome and a great one often comes down to timing, temperament, and alignment.

That’s where Jyotish (Vedic astrology) becomes interesting. It doesn’t replace logic or data. It complements them, by helping you understand when to push, what to prioritise, and where your natural edge lies.

Here is a number of vectors you can optimise for using jyotish. This is not an exhaustive list by any stretch.

ESOPs vs Cash Your Dasha (planetary period) shows whether this phase of your life is meant for compounding or consolidation. Some periods reward patience and risk-taking, perfect for equity-heavy compensation. Others demand stability, where cash and liquidity create the real advantage. The same offer can play out very differently depending on when it enters your life.

In other cases it is simply a deal type that favours you.

Type of Role Your D10 (Dashamsha), the chart of career and karma shows not just what kind of work suits you, but also whether your skill will actually find expression and reward. Not every good guitarist gets paid to play. We all know someone like that: brilliant, but under-recognised. The D10 helps you align your effort with environments that convert talent into visibility and success.

Travelling vs Non-travelling Some people thrive on movement and new exposure. Others burn out when they’re constantly on the move. Strong 3rd, 9th or 12th houses favour travel, outreach, and expansion. For others, staying grounded produces more consistent results. The difference is not ambition, it’s alignment.

When to Take That Sabbatical for an MBA There are planetary windows that reward study, reinvention, and change. And there are others where stepping away breaks momentum. The same sabbatical can either be a turning point or a quiet setback. Knowing when to pause is as important as knowing when to run.

I learnt Jyotish from a centuries-old tradition, and I learnt modern work and leadership by building and leading businesses. The crossover between the two is fascinating. Both study patterns, both are rooted in timing, and both reward those who prepare deeply.

Luck, at that level, is simply doing the right thing at the right time. Give yourself every edge. Leave nothing to chance.
