Should I pursue a career in government or public service?

Government and public service careers have strong elemental associations. Ba Zi looks for a strong "Direct Officer" (正官) star — this is the classic indicator of government service, bureaucracy, and official positions. Zi Wei Dou Shu examines the presence of 紫微 (Emperor Star) or 天府 (Treasury Star) in the Career Palace, both associated with official positions. Western Astrology looks at Saturn (government, structure, authority) and its relationship to your Midheaven. Jyotish examines the Sun (government and authority) and the 10th house for public service indicators.
