Venus and the 5th house: the starting point
In my view, artistic careers are primarily Venus-related, including fashion, television, film, media and music. If Venus is linked to the 6th, 10th or 11th house, there is a high possibility that you could work in an artistic career. The Moon can add imagination, while Mars could combine creativity with technical construction, as in architecture. The Sun can make the person a public figure, while Saturn could bring a more technical creative role, such as editing or graphic design. Among the houses, I would classify the 5th house as strongly linked to creative careers.
Music careers in vedic astrology
Jupiter and Mercury could support music composition or literature, and Jupiter can also relate to art direction. Mrigashira is about presenting the most refined version of a creation, such as a theatre performance or a piece of music. In my experience, many people with a strong Mrigashira influence work in music. With Dhanishtha you'll always possess a sense of rhythm and timing and therefore you could be working in the music industry and you could end up making a huge name for yourself in whichever creative industry you follow.
Writing, film and design
Bharani's influence on the 6th, 10th or 11th house can lead you to create things which have not been done before, with a great deal of innovation. Rohini can centre creative work on luxury goods and services, such as a highly valuable sculpture. Ashlesha can centre work on fashion and glamour and give the ability to captivate through persuasion and seduction. Magha can centre creative work on making a name, ancient art, museums or galleries.
With Purva Phalguni it's directly linked to TV, films and the media sector. With Chitra you could be an architect or a builder. With Hasta your creations could be built through your hands, the skill of hands like a potter. With Jyeshtha you could be involved in innovation of some kind including of the technical nature. With Purva Ashadha your work can be centred around purification and preservation. With Revati you possess high imaginative power. In fact just yesterday I was in touch with someone who had Revati's strong influence and her intention was to be a creative writer. With Shravana your creativity could be expressed through mass media. You could end up becoming a TV host for example. The signs I look for are signs of Leo and Libra as they are very strongly linked to artistic careers. If you plan to be an artist I hope you have a few of these combinations in your chart.
Thank you for your time.
